How do I kill a spinosaurus? spinosaurus battling strategies in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
If you are having a hard time finding spino's in their respective spawn zones (especially Ragnarok), kill all the fish in that area. They share the same spawn capacity and can be out spawned by coles!
“South Zone 1 is the safest area!”
The humble Spinosaurus:
They said the beaches were safe. The things I’ve seen on beaches would scare many men
Once I was just chillin at my base with my 4 trikes, 2 raptors and 1 bronto them this spino walks up to my base wrecks my house and kills my tames I barely get away on my raptor. THIS BEAST PLAYED VOLLEYBALL WITH MY BRONTO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I tamed one now I have a big base lots of tames and my spino is the same one that ruined my base all that time ago. (Ironic right?)
They can’t destroy stone structures, but they can hit you from the other side. Up so noobs can see
They are super strong in spider boss fight because the spider fight has water that give spino super high buff to kill her
Don’t mess with this unless you gonna tame it, it has high damage enough speed so you don’t get away and in the worst case a waterbuff
Which makes him do more damage and he never runs out of stamina cuz it recovers faster than it consumes it with waterbuff
If you see a weird coloured sail in the water, run...
Scream ERIIIIIC!!! They'll come running like a Rex to a diplodocus
Once tried to tame one for my bf while he was offline bc he wanted one. Flew with my Pterra and shot it full of 20!!!!! tranq arrows . Didn’t even flinch. I got too cocky and went too close to the edge of the cliff i was standing on. I fell off RIGHT IN FRONT OF THE SPINO. it’s health was low enough that it started to run away. Without looking back, i whistled for my Pterra to follow and ran for my life. currently trying to get another one :( wish me luck!
Beware at least one spino ALWAYS spawns dangerously close if you pick south zone 3
As a beginner they’re your worst nightmare they will destroy your base and all your tames BUT as a tame your everyone else’s worst nightmare
So I was just going about my day in ark, and then I see the spino. I don’t realize how much health they had and how much damage they did.😐 I was a frikin idiot and shot it with a rifle. It was barreling twards me. If your a starter like me, DONT ALERT IT
If you go on a beach for a stroll and see a weird huge ass reptile, just say you don't recognise the bodies on the water and go back to your base, trust me it's for the best
This is an absolute killing machine just get water buff switch to two legs and its unstoppable
Plssss help! I am a noob just a lil thatch hit a low lvl parasuar and a low lvl turtle.as I was on an "expedition"""" 2 steps away from my hut I heard a terrible noise...I didn't know what it was a dillo? Mabey, a raptor? Mabey a compy? Hope so. But no..I remembered the brutal beast I saw with my dodo on my first day.he was back I quickly checked the wiki for the roar and boy oh boy was I sad when I had found it was a Spinosaurus. Plus help each and every night I hear it getting closer and closer. Pls help.
I found a Lvl 140 Spino by the Penguin pond in The Centre, it got stuck in the ice caverns, easiest big boy tame ever
This guy just appears on my island :(
See one of these. Run. No looking at it. No trying to kill it. running is the only option that keeps you alive
Okay, so, I know there’s this thing about how rexes are better than spinos and vice versa, but the spino is superior. It’s faster, stamina lasts longer, and its dps is insane. Not to mention that it has a hydration buff that makes it even more powerful. They’re loose cannons, which is why they die in the wild a lot: they kill EVERYTHING in sight and then they get killed due to the enormous amount of angry dinos chasing them(the spino is faster, but it usually gets cornered against a cliff). They also have two speeds that each come with their own attack… that’s pretty rad. Literally the only downside is their hp. Just upgrade hp to a safe level. Against the Rex, their damage output is way higher. The only thing they don’t match is hit points, but like I said just upgrade hp if it’s a tame, and you have a vicious killing machine. These are a must tame .Hope you enjoyed, even if it was long.😂
