I had a level 50 spino named rampage, I loved him so much he helped me a lot. But one day another spino stumbled upon my base and killed rampage and all my Dinos including 2 brontos, 1 therizino, 4 raptors, and more, I was so heartbroken. I then quit the game but I recently came back.

As for the eternal Rex vs Spino debate:will do a Rex to take down alphas,but to get around the map faster and in safety,Spino definitely better choice.

I had saw one on the river untamed near my base, I was getting my tranq arrows ready, until that time I was crafting spike wall it breached my base and instantly killed my albino t-rex (beware), from that day I started hating them, because they have some crazy aggression, but when I found out one of them got stuck in the river, I tamed one despite the hate, and I've been setting my tamed spino into aggressive mode to kill all dinos in my area, sadly I cant forgive these guys so I dont care if it dies.

I find their roar scarier than the rex, the spinos roar feels so sinister and intimidating while the rex's roar just straight up screaming with anger

I’m on mobile and I can’t tame a level 2 with slingshot

any tips

STOP saying spoons suck you stupid idiots. They are the third best dinosaur in aberration only outclassed by the rock drake and reaper queen, they can be used to harvest biotoxin due to their large aoe, they are relatively strong and attack very fast unlike the rock drake and reaper, and they lose torpor very fast

If spino by a beach grab/build raft and the go out to a very deep part in ocean and shoot, he won't be able to reach you, this also works in k.oing it.

I’m so OP that I only need 100 traqlzing darts and a master craft longneck

Quick easy tip from experience: If your house is next to one of these monsters and the swamp, and you are a noob. I recommend emptying your inventory in your house and go steal a Spino egg and lure them into the swamp. Then you have a win-win scenario; Either the spino dies or he clears the swamp for you.

I saw the top of the fin a thousand it was a Demetrius

During my second day on the island, I encountered one of these beasts. So I hopped on this app and found how many tranqs it would take to knock it out. It was a level 18, and with a normal bow it should have taken 20 before it was knocked out. Needles to say 36 of them to the head was not enough.

Good guy to use on Prime meat runs in the swamp on mobile. Easily kills paracers and titanoboas. Beware of torpor though because you might accidentally step on beelzebufos. I learned that bit the hardest way.

It was day 2 since I began playing ARK built a decent tatch base and tamed 5 dilo, 3 para, 1 iguana, 2 mosch and 5 dodos. I guess. I was around level 9-12. As I was trying to to call on of dilo which was out of whistling range I saw triceratops head glowing red from a distance. Previously read a comment about trikes head glowing means a spino or rex is nearby. Out of curiosity went near to check its level. Found me, chased me and tried to kill me. But to my good or bad luck all of my tames attacked the spino only to see each of them getting killed by its jaws and claws. Escaped and built another base, went to my previous base just to check on it only to see 3 more spinos nesting there completely. Had to give up that base regrretfully.

It’s honestly very easy to take one. You have to get on a cliff or a high rock where they can’t reach you, then you have to shoot it with tranq arrows. When it’s knocked out make sure you bring at least 80 narcotics, and at least 8 stacks of meat. Then boom you have a spino

For the guy that asked how tame a spino u can place 4 or 5 pillars and a ceiling then use a pterenadon to get on its top shoot it till it runs and Chace it down butt be careful it's super fast and the pillars should be at least stone and u can use a tapeJara instead don't try clifs though because they can climb it

Ive haven't found one on lost island dlc yet there might be a bug the needs to be fixed

I just watched my Spino sink into the ground and I only sat on my rock and watched.

BTW starve taming is the same amount of time as regular taming it doesn't work it may seem quicker but it's not

I’m new and I have a wood base and a spino spawned what should I do

People are saying to bring a lot of narcotics, I tamed a level 76 with just 3 narcotics and a soothing balm
