How do I kill a spinosaurus? spinosaurus battling strategies in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
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
Once i was taming an equus and there was a spino nearby. The spino was just chillin' and once my equus was tamed the spino came. I was killed but i requested it and it was safe. Months later i tamed that spino. I still have both to this day.

DO MOT UNDERESTIMATE ITS MOVEMENT
Be careful when attacking a spino. I attaked one on my wolf which was fully implanted by me. I only got a few hitsin when he went crazy. They do lots of knockback so my wolf silver was killed out from under me and I barely escaped with my life only because of a bronto standing near by that I was able to run under. Upv ote so people can know.
At least you can run from a Rex if it sees you.
How can you beat a spino with bow and arrow
Spino spawn bugs for those who do not know if u have trouble finding a spino for days clear the fish out of the water in the spawn zones leave for 10 minutes and u will mostlikley see a spino as the spine spawns get taken up by fish strongly enough
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
I absolutely destroyed this thing with my brontosaurus I avenged my fallen Dinos it was a massacre on both ends
Bring knockout arrows! Or u will fail ... 80% of the time.
These are hard to tame and very powerful in water and on land
They’ll run like their sails are on fire. If it’s tailgating you, get away!
If you are just starting a world and you see one if these bad boys and its level 100 or less here is how. First tame up a triceratops level 60 or higher and make sure its health is in the range of 900 - 1200 then keep hitting and moving away from its front continue that and it will run away thats how you scare/kill a spino.
Super easy tame picked up my lil bro with my argy and he shot spino with tranq crossbow fed it some fishys and biotoxin and boom done
The only reason i only buff speed and stamina on evrything
Your next door neighbor you cant get rid of but if you get too close you won't see next morning...
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.
The dossier says it’s only territorial, but it is very VERY aggressive if you get too close. Once that thing goes into bipedal mode… goodnight. Either have a very powerful tame, or pray that another creature will distract it.
It’s usually having fun in the river, just don’t become it’s fun.
