Tips & Strategies

What are tips for spinosaurus? Tips and strategies for spinosaurus in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
You have to be a mid to high lvl to be able to tackle one. They are very, very strong despite having less hp as the Rex. They are also very fast, so there is no going back once you engage, unless they are low, in that case they will sprint away.
Im a mobile player and i REALLY WANT ONE OF THESE so i keep caving for soothing balms but i cant get them! any tips for taming a spinosaurus? I dont have kibble also so should i use prime fish meat? If i get a soothing balm i might wait for it to starve then get bio toxin and prime fish
I tamed a lvl 22 spino without any traps or flying creatures i climbed a high rock that was attached to a mountan so if he hits me i wont get launched from the rock i started shooting him whit crossbow and tanqr arrows and he fell down BRING AT LEAST 100 NARCOTICS OR 80/100 BIO TOXIN AND DON'T USE REGULAR MEAT LIKE I DID USE PRIME MEAT OR FISH MEAT
One of the easiest tames out there!! All you need is to have a high ground and about 10-20 narco arrows. Make sure once it starts running away that it will bump into rocks. Tamed a lvl 5 and only needed a 3x soothing balm with 50 narcotics and fish ✨️ only thing that sucks is now i gotta get to the lvl where i get a spino saddle
How to tame:
Step 1: Build a trap near but not too close to your desired spino.
Step 2: Lead it into the trap. (Don't underestimate their speed!)
Step 3: Shoot it with tranq arrows/darts until it goes unconscious.
Step 4: Put your taming food into it's inventory, and wait.
Step 5: Enjoy your new spino! (These guys are really good :D)
I had four spinos but one died saving my life from a meg (he was low like 100 hp) but and the one I just tamed I tamed with one piece of prime and 10x balm
This is a must have on solo play. My level 76 can take out an Alpha carno lv 1 and an Alpha Raptor level 6 back to back with no problem. When fighting with them don't forget to be near water as they gain increased movement and damage being in (Spino foot) foot deep water.
If you want to catch one properly you can setup 1-3 large bear traps in a row a good distance away from the Spino, then aggro it into one of the traps and tranq it. Don't forget, large bear traps take a few seconds before they become activated.
Bring a shield in case it gets to you before it gets to the traps, they're fast.
Ark 101 taming all large dinos. 4x4 behemoth trap. Leave a space that is person sized that you can shoot through. Use ptera or argy to bait dino into trap. Fly over the other side where dino in trap can't see you. Loop around and close open gate. Trapped. Clear dilos and other junk around trap. Knock out the large dino in trap and tame peacefully protected by gates. Ive used this method on diplos, brontos, gigas, spinos, rexes, allos, theri, etc. All in one trap.
I found one across from my base. I followed one of the tamimg pen tutorials but made the pen to small and the game kept crashing. I died over 5 times and finally got it trapped then a raptor killed me, when I respawned I saw the spino running towards my base. I thought it was the end of my dinos but no, it looked at my dodo the wrong way and all my creatures (10 dodo, 1 dimorphodon, two dilos,1 Iguanadon, one petradon, and two parasaurs) all mobbed it and it started running faster than anything I've seen in ark. I ended up making a huge pen and having to chase the spino into it because of the trauma from all those dodos... Now I have it, but am over level 52 and don't have a saddle for it.
It can’t destroy stone so just make a stone foundation and build the stone walls about 10 high. Be sure to bring ladders and ceilings to make a little snipers nest. Also bring some narcotics because torpor drains fast. I used cooked prime meat to tame mine but just any meat will suit. Pretty easy tame this way for a big scary dino
Lmao I love how people tear each other's eyes debating whether a Rex or a giga should be breed for mutations, while this guy is slept on. If a rex, giga and spino are same level, spino will beat them in dps and the massive knock back and attack speed render everything but sauropods and flyers unable to approach, it beats them in speed stamina and oxygen 53 times a day, their only advantage is the hp but that is undermined by the spinos op attacks. Beats both in everything but hp, yet is so ignored...
Spino on top it’s better than a rex
There is a very easy trap to make Taming this beast easier, use pillars in a T shape on the ground, take 14 stone pillars, look up the vid on YT. You can get on your flyer, bump into spino to agro and lead it straight into the trap and it's stuck there. Tranq, feed, breed and saddle up your partner
Can anyone help me how to make the trap
For the guy that asked what to do cuz there is a spino next to his camp so if you are a pro and have a good bow or a crossbow you could find a high place and try to kill it or tame it but you will need some bio toxin or narcotics and knock it out with the traq arrows but if you are noob just try to not go to him cuz he will kill you and your dinos.

If you need my help I will try to help you 😀
Definitely needs narc, don't know why it says 0...
I can't find a high level spinoff so I tamed a 30 in luck so I can find a level 150 or 110 at least
Just tamed a spino without checking the lvl and it was lvl 3…. Wooo I guess
