Tips & Strategies

What are tips for spinosaurus? Tips and strategies for spinosaurus in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
A tip is that if you live on the cliff on the south next to the metal spawns and on the other side of the river, there could be a lot of spinos so maybe you can take one by shooting down at it. There is a small little area on the the cliff where you can jump down and you can be on the perfect area where you can shoot at its head without getting bit. You are right above it. Just don’t fall, can work with Rexes too. I did it on mobile idk if it works on pc.
Tip/Hint: Spinos typically spawn in shallow bodies of water. When encountering, never run. Creep to the end of their tails. If you can, find a ledge, rock, or tree of some sort to hide behind. If you have a bola, use it to stun the Spino. Never go out hunting unless you have a Level 10 Dilo at least. It'll make your life so much easier. This tip is for experienced players. Incase you are wondering where the tips are for 2019, here it is!

If you want to kill it,or knock it out low levels make a bow get 40-50 arrows if you want to kill it or 50-60 tranq arrows if you want to tame it then find a tall cliff then shoot like crazy and if it tries to runaway then lay a large bear trap or stone walls, if you are trying to kill put wooden or metal spike walls.Then boom look at you, you get bragging rights good luck!
Tapejara on a cliff face is better than a pteranodon; there’s much less of a risk of falling off the top of the cliff, and once the spino starts running you can chase it easily. Take a tribe mate in the passenger seat to shoot in the air
Best encounters on in the Canyon on Rag!
To tame I took my fastest Sarco and while swimming where I can along with the Spinos aggro I just hip fired with my crossbow. To prevent the Spino from drowning it will always begin to run away before being knocked so while it is booken it time your last few shots for when the Spino is on the land when it is time to be tamed.
If you only have tranq arrows and taming over le 60 give up it will be to fast
Find 450 shit yourself and fill full of tranqs
Can’t break stone but one did attack me inside a stone tower watch out!
To tame a Spino I placed down 3 large bear traps, it easily got stuck and by the time it got out it was torpor running. I easily knocked it out but I must warn you bring A LOT if narcotics mine was only level 4 and it took about 90 narcotics to keep asleep. Didn't take too much meat about 6 percent for every one piece of raw meat. If you are looking to find one on the island map on ARK Survival Evolved there were two spinos near in the southern uplands where there are quite a lot of raptors. Bring bear traps, a bunch of narcotics, and some raw meat if you are looking to tame a Spinosaurus. :)
Don't assume just because they are big, they will be slow. They are insanely fast on land and in sea. Their top speed, reactions, attack speed and turning radius are sharper than their teeth and claws. Just because you are on your prized Raptor, sniping from a distance, does not mean it won't reach you faster than you can turn and start to run away.
Alright I was in front of one with no stuff at the time I was a noob I thought it was a stegosaurus but no it was a big crocodile so I started to punch it but it did not die my point is it is possible but go ham on him at a higher place then he can climb or Rech and go ham on it with all you long range weapons with trank darts or arrows to ok him sorry about typos
Easiest to find when you are not looking for it.
you need at least 200%+ or more movement speed to outrun this with less than half weight
taming this guys are ez you just need 100 trang arrows and a crossbow and a grabbling hook shoot the grabbling hook on a mountain and just shoot the hell of it
If u find one and wanna kill it use 2 turtle and some bow for range and kill it
