How do I kill a spinosaurus? spinosaurus battling strategies in ARK: Survival Evolved.
If you encounter a spino and you don’t at least have a good triceratops you’re basically dead on arrival. Spinos aren’t big slow pushovers the way rexes are, they can and will actually tear you in half, they rely off a different ai than most creatures because their ai is programmed to spam attack as fast as they possibly can oh and they do a ton of damage, they can outrun and out swim you so unless you can fly or have a super fast mount be prepared to fight, you’re not outrunning this thing trust me.
Spino have an enormous turning radius. You can use this to your advantage. If a spino chases you run inland or toward a bunch of trees. The spino will get stuck on the trees and then turn around running in a full circle to reach you. For some reason even though the spino is large enough to knock down trees it will turn around and run in a wide arc attempting to reach you.Just be mindful of other dangers inland like raptors and carnotaurus.
Just spawned into a new world on the island and spent a solid 30 min making a thatch base. I walked down the beach and saw a spin-off pop out of the ocean right in front of me. Killed me in two hits. Was not expecting to see a spin-off in my first 30 of playing! Going to try and tame it tomorrow.
I wasn't expecting for one to spawn in the easy zone on the shore line like come on i was coming back home from doing a mission and the Spino gave me a heart attack but I guess it was my fault for killing all of the cinardia (jelly fish) in the river causing it to spawn in since I made room for it. But now not only do I have to deal with megapiranhas, jellyfish,titanboas, and megalodons I have to deal with a spino now too.
These guys are SAVAGE!! I saw one slap a dimorph out of the sky
Is it a door bell? Is it a Spino? No it’s 17 missed phone calls from mum
Start digging your grave
I killed a spino lvl 2 with a pike and two turtles. (RIP cassie and Cate carbonmeyes)
I’m locking through my telescope now it’s killing whole broths but I have A LOT of spike walls pray for me I don’t think I’ll survive this one
Spinusoreis are cool dinosaurs with spines
These guys die to dimorphs just saying so you can be careful when taming
When I was running it was dark and I fell off a low cliff and I saw a spin-off but I was on a rock it saw me and I got scared and I fell off the rock and I died so don’t try not to go by them
Once I saw a high level spino wandering around and killing everything in sight and when I shot my bow it ran away and I was like what the hell? Killing them isn’t hard just tame a few Dilophosaurs and let them spit poison at the Spino before killing it with your pistols. If you don’t have pistols, get more and higher leveled Dilo and stand back and shoot it with a bow to assist.
Spinosaurus vs Rex:
Spinosaurus: has two modes: one for travel and one for attack. It’s faster and stronger than the Rex depending on the mode. Four legs = faster Two legs = stronger
Rex: only has one mode but has higher health and stamina than the spinosaurus. The Rex is basically a tank that can take some hits and it may not have as good damage as the spinosaurus, but can deal a lot of damage.
They are both good. Just choose who you want
Spinos are much more interested in you if u were near a lake or beach... they are territorial creatures however to escape feom that villian just run toward jungle or woods just run away as fast as possible from beach or lake they will lose interest on you in the end... well if u survived....goodluck
Where to find Spinosaurus (reissue)
The Island- River
Scorched Earth- N/A
Aberration- Fertile Region, Red Hazard Zone
Extinction- (Normal Spinosaurus) Desert Dome (Corrupted Spinosaurus) Wasteland, Sunken Forest
Genesis Part 1- Bog
Genesis Part 2- Water
Fjordur- (Normal Spinosaurus)- Lake (Aberrant Spinosaurus) Aberration Cave, Vanaheim
In my opinion, you look cooler on a Rex’s back, but Spinos are more powerful.
If your new and with a tri mate just bola the tri mate and run
There’s about 5 around my base. There my favourite dinosaur species and I’m yet to tame one. Or two. Or ALL OF THEM.
I’m near the section with lots of rocks and no trees.
One time I was in my base making narcotics ... when I hear fight music start playing.... I look outside and the body of a level 34 spino was laying on the ground infront of me... my dinos killed it almost instantly.
It’s again your boy MastaCheeks420
