They always spawn near my base. But my army of dilophosaureses always take them down. I’d say about 10 dilos will be enough. They reward nicely.

Tip/Hint: Spinos typically spawn in shallow bodies of water. When encountering, never run. Creep to the end of their tails. If you can, find a ledge, rock, or tree of some sort to hide behind. If you have a bola, use it to stun the Spino. Never go out hunting unless you have a Level 10 Dilo at least. It'll make your life so much easier. This tip is for experienced players. Incase you are wondering where the tips are for 2019, here it is!

Best encounters on in the Canyon on Rag!

Don't assume just because they are big, they will be slow. They are insanely fast on land and in sea. Their top speed, reactions, attack speed and turning radius are sharper than their teeth and claws. Just because you are on your prized Raptor, sniping from a distance, does not mean it won't reach you faster than you can turn and start to run away.

Run away from water if it sees you

Spinosaurus are good to kill Rex’s

Tame a spino lvl 180 u will only 90 lvl's :/

ooh look at this little dino here it’s so pretty i wanna go and i lay with it! wait, why did it growl at me? are you coming to play with me? ow! let’s not play rough. ow! ow! ow! stop it! (starts running and screaming in terror). Spino: y r u running? (player death sound)

don't punch it...

it'll punch you back.

I was chopping down a tree and suddenly a spoon started killing all my dodos I ran into my house

It was made out of hatch so the spin-off started attacking my house and it wrecked it . I’ll never go far of into the beaches again

I was restarting my game and as I spawned 2 deadly spino was near a base location where i usually like to put a base so i left them cuz i was building further away from them killed titanobo- the spinos were right beside my thatch base I take a bow and killed the female on accident I was gonna shoot but my mind also said stop chasing the spino or your wasting arrows so I let go of my arrow one last time and oops I wasn't paying attention but I killed it Yay I have free levels but the Male was scared

They have a very small aggro radius making them easy to avoid, furthermore they hardly ever wander away from water.

In combat, wild Spinos act like glass cannons, they have the same health as Thylaceos but have high DPS plus a movement speed and attack boost in water. Sustained assault rifle fire or a tanky mount with decent attack will slaughter the poor thing.

Tamed Spinos are a different story however…

If you're low/mid leveled, avoid these as much as you can. Its easy for a beginner to see this and think its far too big to be fast, but once they're aggressive, they can easily outrun the player. And standing on their hind legs lets them reach further, so you can't just hide on a rock. If you have no choice but to provoke one of these, my advice is to find the nearest pack of herbivores, which will still the spino, buying you time to find higher ground. Again, for a low level player, escaping is much more feasible than killing.

I was taming a carno on a beach, when a spino came and was attacking a stegosaurus, I wanted to tame it so I shot it with a crossbow and 4 seconds later I died. I had full hide armor and apprentice hide boots:(

I currently have two of them around my base and they killed every dinosaur that I’ve lured into their area I was hoping the wild dinosaurs would kill it but it looks like that’s not going to be the case and I’m low-key terrified

I'f you encounter one it's better if you had a journey man sword and flak or better armour so you can kill it but if it has a 30+ level even you had flak armour it's better to leave and fly away with your flyer or ride and run away with your ridable dino

Try to get it stuck on a few rocks if it’s trying to eat your face and shoot it

I was walking to collect more reasurse when suddenly i came accros a spino and i died but it cant see you if you are hidden

If your on a pvp server or pvx that’s in pvp and you see a sail with a strap on it… you and anyone nearby will be dead… happened to me and I knew what it was and I ran but the spino and the person caught up too fast and ate me… I lost monkey

When you see one I recommend to either get somewhere up high or run because they can surely fight!

I used my ship to travel around the island (mobile) my trike had a weird glow and I saw 2 Spinos so I went back and then a rex was there so I got stucked for a while no one got hurt tho also the trike was glowing due to the rex not the spinos so I almost died
