I CANNOT BELIEVE MY DINOS so this is what happened…
So one day I was growing my Dino’s like I always do and I got killed while riding my parasaur and my parasaur also got killed aswell by a raptor so I didn’t hesitate to get all my Dino’s to get revenge on the raptor bc my parasaurs name was Icey and she was the daughter of my two first parasaurs that died and a mother to many of my parasaurs left but that’s when I took one wrong step and the nearby spino came running at me and I put the target as the spino bc I was scared but also regretted it but a few minutes later IT WAS KILLED?!?! I was so happy and was freaking out bc that meant I was stronger than any Dino weaker than the spino so after that I just sat down and relaxed to the bloody screech’s of the raptors that were getting beaten by my Dino’s that’s the first time a spino has been beaten by a pteradon, Parasaurs, Dilos, Carbonemys, iguanadons, and a dodo may the dodo lord watch upon me as for my Dino’s killed the spino without harming a single dodo even mine🥹☝️
These guys are op.Pratically nothing stands in its way(almost) getting these early game is incredible.these guys are way to fast for a giant lizard which makes it extremely hard to shoot at.If one starts to run away do not chase it down, unless you know it's running away because of torpor.In my opinion these are better than the rex but harder to tame BC of movement speed.
you can just get 3 stone dinosaur gate and an trap to tame it i finded an 300 lvl one when i was taming an 270 lvl rex im only lvl 62 so i killed spino and his implant i gotted my darts and now gonna revive and tame it wish me luck he is so beautiful
Tamed one in a trap *they don't fit through regular dinosaur gateways* it was level 1 so it was not the best spino tame but if you guys want the recipe it'd be:
16 stone foundation (spinos cannot damage stone)
8 tall stone walls *or 32 regular stone walls*
Place wall every other space, to gat a slotted trap with a foundation length space between each
Make 1 stone wall as short as a regular one
Lead through trap and enjoy tame!
*Lvl.1 spino requires about 10-15 tranq darts
Okay so it was actually such a easy tame for me, I just stood on top of a cliff and showered it with tranq arrows so it didn’t get to hit me
Butttttt then again it was only a level 10 so it’s usually harder than that
I find that they always spawn by freaking Carnos so be careful!!!
Trap one in 3 Dino gateways and 2 gates.use tranq darts to knock out and feed it. Hope you enjoy your new friend
So when u wanna tame these guys u get on a very tall rock near them and shoot them very fast with tranq arrows until they run away and u follow it and keep shooting it till it go sleep and u put fish meat in inventory to tame, and if anything come to kill it u smack then so hard that their teeth fall out until it dies. (BRING SO MUCH NARCOTICS)
these guys are very very good they already have one of the strongest attacks (which they do very quickly) but the main advantage is that you don’t really have to waste leveling points by putting them in stamina and speed you can put it all in melee and health then you can get a better dino in the end than one with stronger base attack damage but needs stamina increased
Spino stronger than rex? He kill him .spino level 80. Rex 105
If you encounter one in the early stages of the game and you have to fight it there’s a trick where you just circle and stay to it’s back. It can’t hit you but you can hit it.
When taming a spino make sure you bring at least a 100 or 200 norcotics because they tend to wake up quickly and also make sure you are on a higher ground because spinos can't climb steep hills..then you can knock it out with tranq arrows....
For a low level spino get full chitin armour and tank with a crossbow.
