Spinosauruses are easy to deal with a low levels.
Simply follow the ‘nopeasaurus’ rule, which states that so long as it isn’t running at you, you still have the opportunity to leg it around or away from the dangerous dino. I have used this rule many times with rexes, spinos, therozinos and more
Not a tip but I just wish they were passive but when there attacked there aggressive
I was on offline (mobile) when this happened, so a quick brief before we start,
I completed the dilo hunting pursuit, and i got an ascendants bow which had 135 damage, I’m in S1, The Island (don’t spawn here).
I started my Megapirahna hunting pursuit, then turns out the location of the MP was right beside a spino, so i took the spino out with ease, then when i killed it, i saw another one fighting a bronto(bronto killed), and killed that one too, THEN out of nowhere at my back i saw another spino, I was like... How and why is there another spino here? I shot it again with my bow and it took a lot more shots. So here i killed 3 spinos in a row, a lvl 3, 5, and 11.
Can get a lot of bio toxin bumb this up ppl come on, they are worth something atleast.

Pls help me. SPINO right outside my base. PLZ upvote to save my base. Becuz I am low-level I don't have a smelter to smelt iron I don't have iron weapons and stuff.
DON'T TAME IT! IT SPELLS D E A T H.
My buddies and I set up shop at the edge of the Center, just past Green Obelisk and right outside penguin pond. Not only do we have uncontested access to all the polymer in the world, but spinos spawn there all the time. At one point I think 5 or 6 were up at once. It's crazy how often they spawn there. Going to try and take a 145 one that's been there for about a week tomorrow.
Up for all noobs that wants a Spino to see!
When I tamed my first Spino, I was only lv 39!
Here’s some tips. They’re mostly found in the southeast shores, and the southern islets. However, they can sometimes spawn IN THE SNOWY MOUNTAINS! To knock out a Spino, I didn’t use trap method. I just ran up a cliff and tranq it out. However, the cliff taming method is hard, as the Spino has torpor run. Be sure to have tons of narcotics and bio toxin, as their torpor drops fast. DO NOT USE NARCOBERRIES! NARCOBERRIES CAN ONLY BE FED ONCE EVERYTIME THE SPINO EATS A MEAT, MAKING IT EXTREMELY EASY TO WAKE UP!
Heres the tools you need:
Do the hunt dilophosaur quest and get a good bow (otherwise use crossbow)
Craft about 100 tranqs (if the level is high craft way more than THAT.)
Medical brews/cooked meat if you need to Regen
A Dino that is fast. I use Sarcos as they’re tanky, fast in water, and can take out annoying aggressive small creatures instantly. I also recommend Gallimimus (not used for engage in battle!), and other fast creatures. The most common method I use is to go right in front of the Spino, and tranq it on my sarco. When my sarco is low, I’ll just hop into the water and continue to tranq it. This way, it’s easy, and when you need to chase it during torpor run, you can just hop right off and chase it. Use fish meat! There are so many rivers nearby! You can also use prime fish meat (if you have sickle), as the local population of salmons are plentiful. Up if you think this is helpful!
Why Spino can Kill my Brontosaurus
They might be awesome but they’re really hard to kill I tried to Tame and it was hard I try to beat it up with my club and my Club broke! So I just ran away but it followed me I tried to find it a bunch but I died So they are cool but stay away from them
People are idiotic spinos are better than rexes and here’s my proof. spino on hind legs is more powerful and does more damage spino on all 4s is way faster get your facts straight idiots. Spinos are better than Rex and if you don’t agree I don’t care go cry to your mom that I’m mean. IRL spino is still better because it bigger stronger and would likely win in a fight so stop saying the pathetic rex is better cause in the end your just mad that it’s better-the defender of spino, lava the dilo
When encountering one of these dont run walk up to it and it will back down. Dont listen to people who say otherwise
If u encounter this creature make sure your movement speed is very high because they are super fast.

I absolutely hate these things. There is this one spino that hangs around relatively near my house. At one point it came to kill a trike that also hangs around nearby. I was running backwards to the other side of a hill, far enough so I wouldn’t aggro it. It still managed to attack and kill me while I was far enough away and could barely even see it. It then proceeded to kill all of my tames.
