How do I kill a spinosaurus? spinosaurus battling strategies in ARK: Survival 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!
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.😂
Step 1: find a T rex eating a carcass and run from him
Step 2: run towards the spino and let them fight.
Step 3: let the spino kill the rex then save Alan Grant stuck beneath the trees.
Conclusion: The worst controversy ever
They said the beaches were safe. The things I’ve seen on beaches would scare many men
At least you can run from a Rex if it sees you.
Beware at least one spino ALWAYS spawns dangerously close if you pick south zone 3
Warning if you decide to spawn in south zone 1 on the island, spinos occasionally spawn. When I was still a newbie I went onto a nomadic journey, once I got better, I ko'd and accidentally killed the spinos.
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?)
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
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
If you see a weird coloured sail in the water, run...
These are one of the best in my opinion it spawned in like south zone 2 or 3 I was in 1 I was going to kill it when I saw one that was not a alpha so it was normal and it murdered 2 alpha trikes!These are op I hope I can kill it I’m only lvl 23 with some rappers and stuff but do not attack and don’t go in there domaine unless prepare and near high ground.
Rip me
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!
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
Scream ERIIIIIC!!! They'll come running like a Rex to a diplodocus
If a spino is near your base and your not far enough along to kill it, make it go out of view and do a tidy save, especially if it’s somewhere that it’s not common, like the original spawn. Then leave the game and go back in and hopefully it will be gone
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.
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
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
A bit more scary in game when encountering
