As others have already pointed out, the values for raw mutton are off. You need more mutton & narcotics!

I now tamed a 112 Spino on Aberration with 2x taming multiplier. I used mutton only and it ate 30-40 raw mutton (opposed to the 27 calculated). Each piece gave ~3% taming progress, so it finished with ~92% Taming effectiveness. I got 51 bonus levels (calculator said 53).

What you should take away from this: raw prime fish is faster than mutton and as it seems (needs confirmation) produces atleast as many bonus levels as mutton.

Make a 2x2 pen with dino gates but leave one of the sides open, shoot the spino and wait for It to get in the pen. Close the open side with one dino gate and you have a knocked out spinosaurus

Remember don’t use raw meat. Also use tranq darts.

I'm taking a lvl 17 spino rn I used a argy to get on a high rocks with tranq arrows to knock it out and bio toxins to keep it asleep so I don't have to farm for narcotics

I believe Spinos May be bugged right now. Tried to tame two today, both level 280. First one, drew it on to land, knocked it out and put Argie kibble on it and it sank through the ground and out of my reach. I stuck around to see if it might tame anyway and I might be able to recover it. It died due to “drowning” under ground. :(. It took one bite before drowning and got to 1% tame. Second one, pulled it up a hill, knocked it out and put kibble on it as well. Supposedly takes 4 bites of Argie kibble on our sever (15x taming). Each bite gave 1% taming. Fed it a few drugs to keep it asleep and after 4 bites, I stopped drugging it and it woke up. :/

The mutton taming is wrong tried it twice now and got only to 80%

If you do happen to find one and you want it it’s agro rang is soooooo small so do the best you can lure it to a beach eara if you not already there find a rock it can’t get up and light it up with drugs

Just get high ground and don't let it get you it worked foe me a supply drop I found a level 126 there

Tamed a spino on 3x with mutton, and the time and narcotic needed was quite a bit off. Needs an update.

Run away from water if it sees you

Great for abb cause a trilbite run gave us easilly 3k chitin and tons of oil and silca

Taming a lvl60 and it says 33 mutton on x1 and mine are 33 and only at 81.1% done.

Think it might be off.

Very hard to knock out on Rag, unless you can trap it, which is a pain because it gets distracted by everything.

On 3x small tribe servers tame a lvl 100+ in the canyons then go around killing more spinos, easy level up for u and other dinos that follow u. A must have tame.

Aim for the body. The sail makes for a nice, big target, which can be helpful. Just get a couple tribe mates to bait it to a cliff and then shoot from the side.

The spino will run down any fast creature so dont try to fire trangs of the back of a raptor or even a bear because it will clap your cheeks

By far The most usefull dino on the Island map. Tame a pair of 100+ lvl, breed 4 of them, level them up a bit ( 10k hp, 1k meele, and 4k oxigen ) and you can rule the island above and bellow the wather. They are faster than a rex, spend less stamina for running/fighting, and do not use stamina for swimming. Been farming artifact of the cunning ( underwater cave ) with ease, alfa squid of alfa mosa are down in under a minute. Great for farming black pearls, angler fish gel, cnidaria toxin. Nothing can touch them on land eather. What else do one need?

The spino is easily better than the rex as it can swim has a faster bite and further range

Everyone says this is better then Rex's and they are, but they are a tank for hits like get a level 250 one and you'll see what I mean because I had 8 rex and 5 spinos when I was fighting the broodmother and believe me if it wasn't for the Rex's I had all my 150 and 200 Spinos would be dead

Easy, Just get a large bear trap or two and place ‘‘em down and aggro it and make it follow you into bear trap and then knock it out (Better with group of people shooting it with tranqs at once) then feed it prime fish meat for fast tame (kill and harvest saber tooth salmon meat with sickle).
