Player-written tips for taming, using, and fighting the Spinosaurus in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.

You need at least chitin gear so you can tank about 15 hits and if you distract it by leading to the water so it attacks fish while you can tranq it unfortunately you will need a lot of narcotics

P.S: if your on IPad you get an item that boosts taming by 10x use it for spino's

I solo tamed two at the same time...lucky for me the salmon run was going on and I was able to get slot of prim fish. It still took a ton of narcos it felt like all I was doing was feeding them narcos. On was lvl 75 the other was 55, not bad for a solo tame.

Before you get to the point where you have wyverns, depending on your location spinos can be the best meat gathering tame. For my tribe, our Gigas are the best because we live near the swamp, but if you live somewhere with lower spawns, the spino can get you to the meat easily.

Spinos can't break or get through stone dino gates. Best to use the same trap with the 4 gateways and large bear trap. Use stone gateways and a flying mount to lure it perfectly to the trap.

You guys you guys, calm down, I didn't too do the sarco, I had problems with these guys sooo (taming montage incoming)

I shoot it with toxicant arrows, 100 to be exact, but I put it in bear traps first,

Then I used my argy to get raw Prime meat,and you already know…

Always get a abberant spino. Its a key in abberation playthroughs. Strong, durable, rad-immune, get a good one and it will get you some rock drakes

How to tame a spino:

To start taming, gather materials, minimum is:

Crossbow (80 Tranqs min)

3-4x stone Dino gates

~50 raw prime fish meat

To find a spino, go to the west zone 2 rivers or any swamp/lake

Find the spino you want, then either lure it to a cliff or simply…

I was struggling to take one without a trap cause everything was pillored around it. So I got on my flyer shot it got it aggro on me got next to another wild animal and it got distracted, so I shot it until it killed that animal and then rinse and repeat. Hope this helps!

I suggest getting onto a cliff, spam tranq and start chasing it. I can easily do it on a lv 150 Spino at a river on mobile and remember to surround it with spike walls and camp your Spino, or just render it out while it was taming (just make sure it is guarenteed to be tamed…

So it's been 2 months since I've started to play ark mobile and at first I've no idea where I want to spawn In the map. I choose the South zone ( coz it's showing "easy"), build a base, tames few dinos like trikes, dillos, dodos, diplo and then…

Look, I like all the tips we have here but you know what I do in my game? I go head on and shoot it to get it's attention and keep shooting the arrows until it falls it's really simple just don't died in the process.. That's all I have to say

So, to tame a Spino you will need 4 gateways, large bear trap, narcotics and tranqs. First, place a trap (like a rex / giga trap), lure the spino in to it, close the entrance by placing fourth gateway. After trapping it, start shooting it with tranqs, until it's knocked…

How I knocked it was I went on a big hill or mountain to where it can’t get me and kept trancing it until when it started to run I shot it again and it knocked and I fed it prime meat w w w w
