Use a trap at least 3 walls high ( no windows or doorframes instead of walls). Its torpor run comes quick and takes him to hell and not back. Don’t knock him in water because it drowns.

Hello there player...

I am here to unite the two factions on war since time immemorial: The Rex faction and The Spino faction...

First of all, yes everyone has their on opinion but this is MY opinion so without further ado...

I dont believe in "Rex are better than Spinos" thing

Because in certain scenarios the Spino is IN FACT better than The Rex for example: When Fighting in an area with water a spino can excel in combat with higher attack speed and damage when it has the wet buff and when brutally injured can run fast and swim fast.

But the rex on the other hand has higher health and stamina which means it can tank most damage than the spino can and endure longer runs than the spino but lacking the speed.

In conclusion...

They are both GREAT. Get both of them..

I have a Spino (Riptide) and a Rex (Megabyte) both of them are equally leveled and powerful

I will be pasting this on the Rex side aswell..

But do remember even if i love spinos and rexes

I still believe Gigantosaurus supremacy

A must have in the Aberration DLC. They will help out a ton in the Fertile, Bio-luminescent, and the Hazard zone and they are much easier to tame than the Karkinos.

I was taming a spino but then the bad thing is after I brought 258 narcotics and 57 prime meat and 190 raw meat then I put I on the spino then it got nighttime then I went back in to my house with my argy after I woke up I came back to it the worst problem was an another spino was nearby I tryed to kill it but it's on max lvl-300 so that's why you must put those spike walls thingys around it

Fast movement speed, fast stamina regeneration, gets a buff when you enter water that increases speed. Great for meat running. In my experience the ability to “quickly” get a lot of kills outweighs the extra meat gathering a Rex or giga can give you. The ability to swim fast and gather a lot of fish meat also gives you more meat options. Stand on two legs to gather more meat, as it is a spino’s stronger attack. I would like to get more people on board for tek spino awareness! This is the Best PVE utility carnivore that’s underrated, they also changed the eggs, so they are only good for superior kibble now; but they require exceptional kibble to tame so you need a Rex or giga for eggs I guess... -Bestek

I bred and fully imprinted a lv120 called River King (son of spino richie😂) and he has 200% movement speed. Couple this with the boost from running through water and he is the perfect tame for patrolling beaches and rivers, imagine a land tame that can keep up with a ptreadon he's stupidly fast and can dominate both on land and sea

Basically your rexes for abberation

All you need is a good bow (I used ascendant)and tranq arrows,find a low spino level and shoot it.I managed to tame one at level 25 (fyi I’m on easy mode on different modes do this at your own peril)

I just build a trap close by a spino if i see one and its high level then trap it and tame it . DONE

These guys (in my opinion) are better than Rex’s in every way because they can run faster on four legs, attack faster on two legs, they have a buff while standing in water BUT they’re not perfect for example they lay superior eggs and if you’re using them for bosses they prefer to attack on four legs so they do less dps than a Rex so I would only recommend for bosses if there is water in the arena

These guys are SAVAGE!! I saw one slap a dimorph out of the sky

If you want to tame a spino here are the steps I took to taming it

1Find it's territory:spino's have a territory to themselves this can help you observe it from a distance

2Get on a cliff or high place the spino can't reach you and shoot it(carry ALOT of tranqs if your gonna try tame this)

3They are extremely fast so when they start running you might wanna try snipping it from a distance as closing the distance will be extremely difficult

4Make sure you have enough narcotics and meat to tame it

Bonus tip:if you want you can use narcotic tripwire traps or dinosaurs like pachy or basilisk to speed up knocking it out

So I was on my Therizinosaur on ark mobile and then I saw these while going home. I was like “Oh yeah that’s free XP and Levels for my Theri” and attacked one. I didn’t realize that it was Lvl 100+. It ripped a chunk of my theri’s health, but I killed it and survived. I saw another one, and I was like, “Oh yeah that’s another level there” and tried to kill it. I killed it, but my Therizino was below one thousand. There was one last one, and I took the risk. Boom! Now below 700, with Raptors attacking me. My therizino had a penny of health now. Moral: Don’t take risks with these guys.

Your Ark Guide; Noobs and Pros: Spinosaurus.

====================SPINOSAURUS======================

Encountering: Spinosaurus aquarliga is a dangerous creature, almost more dangerous than a rex. If you encounter one on the wild and you are unarmed, or you have just started the game, I suggest you run. If you just started and are planning on making your base near a spino, find a new area to build your base. If you are unarmed, avoid the the spino and run away. Spinos also have an ability to change from four legs to two legs. On two legs, they're taller and have stronger attacks, but slower. On four legs, They're faster and smaller, but have weaker attacks. They're also territorial, not aggresive.

Killing: To kill a spino, get a longneck rifle or long range weapon, (reccomending assault rifle or longneck rifle) and stand on a tall, steep cliff. Hit the spino and it will run up the cliff, but eventully get stuck. Keep hitting it until it's dead. If you want more meat, harvest with a metal pick. If you want more hide, harvest with a metal hatchet.

Taming: I reccomend looking for a leed with an icthy, but if none are availible, use 100 narcotic and 21 bio toxin for a lvl 9. Bring around 40 fish meat, too. If you can, use a longneck rifle with tranq darts, but if that's not avalible, use a bow with tranq arrows. Get up on a high cliff and hit it once. Once it notices you, it should run up and get stuck. It may bite, or slash, but it doesn't matter. It can't hit you. Once it's high on torpor, if you are in focus, go out of focus, so you can run after it. Keep hitting it, when it starts to run away it's high on torpor, so it'll be down in around 3 hits, for a lvl 9. Note: Don't knock it out in water, they DO have an oxygen stat. Once it's unconsious, if you're taming it with prime fish meat, it'll tame quickly. If you're taming it with bio toxin and narcotic and reg fish, it's longer. Give it the fish meat, and once it goes an 8th of the way down, feed it 6 narcotic and one bio toxin. Repeat until it's tamed.

Uses: Spino's are great battle creatures, and in my opinion, are better than rexes. Their quadruped and biped stances are great for battle. Owning two is great for bringing down creatures, and can demolish alpha raptors. Also, when bringing out spino's for battle, you may notice trike's will glow red. They do this whenever there is a spino or rex in the area, even if the spino or rex is tamed. I'm not sure if tamed trikes do this with tamed spinos and wild spinos. Spino's are great for bringing down brontos, too. Spino's do get an underwater buff when their in water up to mid body and higher. It lasts 30 seconds out of water.

That concludes this Ark guide for noobs and pros, Spinosaurus. Please ^ if this helped you!

I use for scaring of beach bobs because I remember being a noob and getting killed 24/7 so I killed all my enemies with this thing

I've seen alot of people actually seeing these in the spawn area too (or near them)

As you always ahould be, just carry a bunch of tranq darts with you and climb a high enough rock, then you can put it to sleep easily.

I want to tame spino level one but i don't have the saddle

Up if it should Spawn in swaps so plz up so devs can see

To go bipedal on mobile it's the same as secondary attack which is swipe up on left side of screen, that's secondary attack for all dinos that have a secondary attack.

Heres how you tame a spino:

Find a spino

Shoot it with tranquilizar darts

Once it gets knocked out you can feed it raw prime fish meat or normal fish meat:

Enjoy your spino
