What are tips for spinosaurus? Tips and strategies for spinosaurus in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Find a low level spino and spam your tranqdarts with the crossbow and make sure you have good movement speed, then you don't necessarily need a trap.
Does the large bear trap immobilize this guy? Asking for a friend.
People in the Rex category have been dissing my spinos. They always bring up “look at the stats bruh” or “Rex better in all stats” but spinos are superior because,
1. Hydration buff. They get a better radius, boosted movement, attack speed, and health regeneration when they step in water. Rexes just make you poop. How useful.
2. DPS. On four legs, yes spinos are worse than rexes, but on two legs the tables turn. They use their front legs to deal massive damage WAY faster than a rex ever could.
3. Water mobility. Spinos can swim rexes just sorta, um, float. Piranhas will destroy rexes. Spinos can out swim AND kill them and many more fully aquatic creatures.
4. Utility. Spinos out speed rexes on land and in water so they fit hunting better than rexes. And because of their high DPS and knock back, their also fit reaper taming. Don’t like that lvl 10 reaper queen? Simple, knock it into the element water. Rexes couldn’t do this because they lack a aberrant variation so radiation damage (Mushroom stew isn’t really cons
If your new and with a tri mate just bola the tri mate and run
Even when they have oxygen, they are good when swimming through deep sea, my spino can destroy mosas, and even tusoteuthis without trouble. I rather use my “Lake” Spino than my forgotten water mounts actually, but if you’re going to take your Spino to the sea, be careful with jellyfish
Hello, this a Jedi. Me and my sister tamed one of these just now, and this is how we did it. 1. If you have and to find one of these, to scouting on a pteranadon. DO NOT ENGAGE, I REPEAT, SO NOT ENGAGE. 2. Go back to your base and make lots of tranque arrows and narcotics. 3. Go back to it with your pteranadon, and to to the spino. Park slightly far away from it. 3. BRING A FREIND. Me and my sister did this on single player. I don't think either of us could have taken it by ourselves. 4. Wait for it to attack something, like a parasaur. Then have your freind on the other side and load it with tranques. It will run fast and in the water so have a crossbow. Feed it meat and enjoy your monstrous freind! We named ours Titan. I'll post stories once he's seen action.
When i saw spino for the first time i rush to get a stock of food and tame it.Taming spino is easy just need crossbow with traq arrow and narcostic then wait.
I dont know if this was a spawning error or not for me, but on Astraeos at lat 40.5 long 56.4, on that area there was just an absurd amount of spinos (like over 25) and that was the main area they were staying in, I didn't really see any on any other part of the island
Just go up on a higher rock and give him a shot of 57 tranq arrow at least
If spino can climb on rock then pray to god ☠️
I have tamed 2 of these guys when I was around lvl 35-40s. Find some near rivers, find a good rock and shoot them (with tranqs of course) to knock them out. It helps to have a flier eg. pteranodon to move between rocks.
You can also use your pteranodon’s twirl ability to hit low level Spinos in mid-air so a higher level may spawn in it’s place.
Good luck! I hoped this helped :)
Too tame it you just have to get on a high enough cliff so that it can't hit you then start tranqing it and when the spino runs peruse with something that flys
Spino's are powerful anyone who says rexes are better has not used a spino they are faster and stronger they can also swim. Don't use rexes unless they are ur faves. Spino's are just easier to use. They won't die just because something gets behind u. Rexes will die to anything that gets in there blind spot, they are frustrating. Rexes are good amount I just will never use them if I don't have to. My main mount is the baryonyx.
For tames, I think these things are really good. They are fast on both land and in water, they have the might of a quadruped and a biped, they have good HP and good damage, and they get a water buff. BUT, I really need some help. I need 10 spin-off sails for summoning the alpha megapithecus, but I only have four and I can’t find a single spino. I tried killing all the water creatures in the rivers where they spawn but I still can’t seem to get any. I need 6 more spino sails, but I can’t get any. Start your tip with #howtogetsails so that I know you are answering my question. Thanks!
on mobile you can kill spino by placing 1 wooden spike wall and then shoot it with arrow under 20 shot and then K.O
On Valguero tame them in the AB trench, they’re really common there.
