How do I kill a spinosaurus? spinosaurus battling strategies in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
One of the most powerful Dino's in ark above a rex but below a giga and a carcha. Beware you will die if your a beginner and approach this thing.
If you see these freaken things just run if you don't have a long neck rifle and chitin armor they will wreck you face I learned that the hard way

To all the people who are like “there is a spino how do I deal with it”
Well I have had first hand experience fighting these as a low level. So really you have a few options. You can
A: try to kill it with ranged weapons
B: try to kill it with wild herbivores
C: use your tames to try to kill it
And
D: run
For A
You will want a decent crossbow and 10-20 arrows for a level 1-10. Then get high ground to shoot at it. Spinos have low health off they are low level. But it will try to run
For B
Try finding high level or very strong herbivores
Hit it with a bow and get it to chase you. Then run past a herbivore that’s good for a fight with it and maybe try to help it with a bow
For C
You will need a strong tames and basically you want the spino out of water and you fight it with your tames. Whistle target and send them to fight. Make sure to back them up so use a ranged weapon
And finally for D
D is actually really complex and risky. You need to get all your stuff and put it in your tames and run away from the spino. Now you should scout where your gonna go first and make sure there’s a way to get around all the threats.
There's one at the beach that must have eaten about five of my ready to tame Parasaurs.
Low levels stay away
Just shoot them from a hill it’s genius I’ve been doing itFor a while Because I live on a cliff In my survival single player Island
If you are trying to escape a Spino, run away from the water, the Spino will get slower and slower and eventually turn around. I hope this helps, good luck!
There was a spino outside my wooden house, It noticed me. Goodbye house.
Best described as an underwater rex...
Just put melee damage a little higher and you're done.
I was crossing a river at level 5, hoping the evil fish wouldn't try to eat me, when I look to my right and see this huge spino not too far away from me. I start running (the water was very shallow) towards the shore, when I see a huge group of dilos and a raptor. I decide going to the reb obelisk wasn't worth it, so I turn around and I see another raptor on the shore I was coming from. On my left was just deeper water with the evil fish who's name I cant remember. Suddenly the spino got bored of killing fish and thought a human would taste much better. You can guess what happened next.
run. just run. very far and very fast.
I came across a lvl 100 spino what should I do
There's a really good spot to find spinos near the green obelisk on the island there's a shallow water area and there almost always been a spino there for me
Rex vs Spinos Debate
Up this for team spinos
To join team rex, find this post on the rex page
Lots of them in the canyon in Ragnarok.
I mean lots. You are never safe.
For those low levels who want to kill the spino, the probably the 4th hardest hitter in the game; first, you need to find a wild brontosaurus. Next, let the spino spot you, after that, you run under the brontosaurus and the spino will lose interest in you and will attack it instead. After the Spino’s first attack, run. The Bronto’s tail will hit you by accident so just run while popping stimberries in your mouth to maintain your stamina. After it is low on health, it will flee. But if you want to kill it and not let the spino escape the pursuit of the Bronto, Get the ascendant bow and kill it. You need to have a good aim though, it’s considered to be a very fast creature.
They good at taking out alpha dinos. They kill alpha dinos near Rivers or beaches faster.
It is bigger than a giga irl so why not the game and the megalodon was far larger than the gigantic theropod dinosaurs such as spinosaurus
I am so sad a level 3 spino kill me lots a times and if you could tell me how to tame and or kill the spino I would be most grateful
