Once you have hit it a couple of times when it starts to run be aware that they are really really fast so be ready to chase after it

As far as I know, only 3 wild carnivores will aggro onto the sight of your spino, other Spinos, Rexes, and Gigas. You can probably outfight other spinos, outrun rexes, or outfight lower level ones, and outrun gigas. Very useful.

Monstrous water mount, I have a bred spino I raised and I use it for everything, alpha rexes, deep sea creates, it eats mosasaurs with ease.

Love these things so much. I swear they WANT carnage, and it’s terrible when that is used against you, but I love having that for myself. While having a much smaller aggro range than most larger carnivores, it is FAR more vicious. In the wild, I’ve seen them take on rexes, trios of trikes, and I even saw one kill two brontos in a row(a theri ended up damaging it so much it ran away, but still…).

I know the roar is useless, but I’d even go so far to say it sounds way cooler than the rex’s. I had a high level spino named Mom, and I would put her on aggressive because it amused me to see “your Mom killed a rex and/or triceratops, bronto, raptor, etc.” I like that they’re overpowered. DONT nerf them. Ever. Please. Thanks for reading!

These guys will be your best friend.

I am not joking.

I play mobile, single player, and I have one named Butch, tamed him when I was at level 20 something and him level 17 I believe, he’s now level 43 and the only place he doesn’t go with me is underwater and caves.

Do no be scared grabbing one, I was terrified taming Butch, but in all honesty he wasn’t that bad, I was just paranoid. While narcotics are good to use, I find biotoxin even better and it easily knocks a spino nearly back to full tempor.

I used a crossbow and stood on a sharp cliff face, letting butch run around and kill the other animals in the water, which did actually distract him long enough to knock him right out. I highly suggest trying to grab one in the easier areas, mine being from the Long: 40 Lat: 80 area. Here you can easily get biotoxin too, as the jellies spawn in the area pretty frequently, it being a low level area and they’re easy to get to with a crossbow!

Happy taming fellow survivors, good luck!

I tamed a lv 116 whith just a long neck and darts on foot they aren't as hard to tame as people say.

if you are new (lvl 12-ish) here's how to deal with this punk, make sure to have these:

-Full cloth armor + a gift cloth armor piece

-10+ spears

-bow and 20 arrows

-if you're in that level, metal axe or pickaxe

-slingshot 30+ rocks

-a dino (2 dilos or if you managed to get one, a trike or carbo)

-a will to live cuz getting all that SНIТ isn't gonna be easy

Wild dinos ignore you while you are on it unless you attack them except if the dino is an allo, spino, rex, alpha rex, yuty, carcharo, giga, rhynio, or insect buffed megatherium which will attack on sight.

Perfect for under water drops. If for any reason you disconnect down there (and you will) it will float to the surface. To get the drop just jump off and whistle follow all straight away and you'll be fine. These can take on all sea creatures with ease.

They drown if knocked out in water :(

If you don’t see a spino to tame kill all the fish in a river.

Runs to the other side of the map when torpor running

i played hard mode in ark mobile and then I see this red spino that has LVL 200 near my base,I tried my best to trap this beast by leading it into my trap but it killed my baby dodo in passive😭. luckily i managed traping this beast using me as a bait and died. I spawn in and take a look this beast it was red natural.Yep I called him ALPHA PRIME bcs its a cool name by its color of it.It can 1 shot at one lvl100 bronto and it seems like it's overpowered for this tame.Using ascendant spino saddle can make it can beat 5 gigas at once.Also it can beat the only 1 titano bcs of it's health.This A.P now my best fav spino in ark mobile;).

Ok so I met a level 108 spino should I tame it?

If you see these freaken things just run if you don't have a long neck rifle and chitin armor they will wreck you face I learned that the hard way

IF YOU CAN'T FIND THEM READ THIS!!

Spinos spawn along rivers on the island and are counted as an aquatic tame so they are affected by the aquatic spawn cap. This means you must kill fish to get them to spawn. Good luck!

For people who say they’re easier be tamed than rex, no they don’t. Rex is much easier

I play on PC so I’m going to tame one on extinction today, so I think that I’ll use the method of a couple stone floors, doorframe’s, and a ramp. I think that that trap will work perfectly cause it is good on Rexes and other larger Dino’s.

How to place:

It’s really east honestly, just place a 5-5 foundation, 3 doorframe long square with ramps on the side for it to go in. I’ve tried and it works on pretty much everything to a Rex. (maybe make it bigger with a Dino gate too ) also, you can run and make it follow you and then just run out of the door frame to tranq it. This is honestly the most OP trap. Wish me luck!

There's one at the beach that must have eaten about five of my ready to tame Parasaurs.

Low levels stay away

If you tame a 30-40 early game along with tame bonus you can kill most anything in your way.
