I got mine from hopping on beefed sarco shot it with tranq arrows on crossbow and with about 16-20 it was tamable so then throw prime or regular fish meat and should go easy as long as you have at least 30-45 narcotic or 15-20 biotoxin with you

Be careful a lvl 4 murderd my lvl 41 thylocolo

Be careful this things torpor burns like tissue paper

It gathers more resources when in two legs, Also does stomp damage If you run into something straight, If u combo this with the slap,u can add about 60+ damage

Spinos have a better attack speed than a rex

you use three metal billboards in a box and lure it into the box and then box it in by placing a metal billboard to trap it and you can slip in and out the trap. Or you can make a 3 by 3 of stone and wall it up 2 doorframes high so you can get in and out, make stone stairs for the spino to walk up and fall into the cage. Or the EASIEST lure it towards stegosaurus or small tanks until it gets into its running stage (topor running) then shoot it a few times while riding a fast tame that can go under water or on water (pelagornis) and then give it fish meat or raw meat and DONT WORRY IF IT IS KNOCKED OUT IN THE WATER IT CAN BREATH UNDER WATER.

these dudes, in my opinion and many others, are better than rexes. sure, rexes are super cool-looking and popular and powerful as well, but the spino is so much less resource consuming. it takes less than half the amount of tranq arrows/darts to knock out a max level spino than you need to knock out a max level rex. also, if you are in battle and you happen to be using a spino, make sure to touch water while on the spino. the water buff increases your chances of winning by a lot. the only downside about spinos, in my opinion, is the saddle. compared to the rexes saddle, the spino saddle is a tad more expensive than a rexes saddle. up this if you found this useful! -J

For some reason I can easily tame this but not a beelzebufo 💀 anyways you will need:

Flying mount

Tranq stuff

High ground

You need to find something like a cliff and shoot it from there.

These water doggies are VERY strong and can deal tons of damage. I once Single handedly went on isle of DEATH with these puppers. However, on Mobile, ALWAYS bring soothing balms! They help a lot.

They are common on the 4th from bottom waterfalls, I have a base on the 2 waterfall, one of them came down and my base was crushed, but the reward of having a pet spino is worth it

They are easier to knock then you think set a trap or get on a hill we’re he can’t get you and then use trank arrows or darts around 30 depends on the level tho then when you knock it put fish meat in its inventory if you don’t want to use prime meat put bio toxin from jellyfish in as well and feed to the spino every time he gets low on the knocked bar also kill preadotors in the area have fun with your spino :)

My spino candy was my best friend R.I.P candy 😭😭😭. You should get a spino they are great good luck on ark and I hope you find your dream pets! 😉😉😉😉 if you like this pls up it so more peeps see how great pets are. Tysm once again 👍👍👍👍

To tame a spino you should have around 100 tranq arrows and 120 narcotic for a level 140.

Good luck taming one

So i am a level 33 and i tamed a spino

Where to find:

It spawns near the beach or near the river

Requirement's:

You dont need an flyer you only need to be prepared you 20-30 Tranq arrows and like 20-30 bio toxins the narcotics are not forced to use and you dont need to trap it if is a low level

How to tame:

You need to find I recommend a level 3 go and tranq him if he comes towards you don't panic only run and continue shooting him when he runs away follow him and don’t let him fell in the river or the pirhanas will attack but when it on the ground protect him kill anyone in a ten meter radius because it’s a big dino so obviously it has bigger hitboxes feed raw fish and biotoxin and should be your

Who said you need trap for these boys?

First, get tranq darts and biotoxin (their torpor sucks). Then, get a Tapejara/ Raptor/ Equus so you can shot while you are on the saddle. They will run away after you shoot them some times so chase them. One knocked it out make sure to check on the torpor level so you don't lose it. Then, name it Pookie.

You don't need traps if you are fast and more intelligent than them🍷

Two ways to tame spino (especially on aberration)

Make a basic stone trap, 3x3 or 3x4 foundation, at least 3 door frames high and a wooden ramp.

Aggro him and run him up ramp

Make a bed near by if not fast enough

(I have 190% movement speed on official for reference so you might need to be close to trap to run him in)

Then knock him out, cryo him or demo door frames and enjoy your spino!

Another way to do it is(but not as reusable) is 3-4 stone dino gates and a bear trap.

For 3 gates, position the first two in kind of a wide triangle, put the bear trap right between them, run spino in and trap him in with last gate

For 4 gates, position them in a square, put bear trap, run spino in and trap him in with last gate

Spinos are great on the Center map. Because of the large bodies of water you can traverse swaths of the map easily, and quickly. Personal favorite mount due to speed, agility, and wide AOE attack. Also, way easier to steer than those awful Rexs.

I usually see like 47 of these guys strolling around the beach slapping everyone, so uhh… just grab a ramshackle crossbow with toxicants in and try not to get slapped yourself.

Don’t fight it in the water.I did it and I died

Another good way to tame a spino is to bring a lot narcotics, 20 exceptional kibble (To tame more if needed), and a flying tame that you can shoot off of(I use wyvs), I'm not sure how many tranq darts but bring 100 to 200, from there on you will be ready, I hope it works for you!
