Spinos are way faster since the TLC 2 patch, so if you are shooting it from a cliff they are a pain to hit and when they run away it is almost impossible to keep up. If you ko it, try to do it by the ocean and have a water mount with you so you can get biotoxin from jellyfish because it is the best option considering how fast the torpor will drain.

Go to the river that's in the south then on your boat shoot it sail away then repeat. Knocked out a decent level by doing that.

For the love of God DO NOT USE A GATE TRAP, if you really wanna use one use the one with giant gates, some one told me they could be caught with gate trap with regular gates, and guess what? IT DID NO FIT! I had to spend half an hour running after him fighting Boa and sarcos desperately trying to KO it.

They spawn at beach

Chain bola then club it

If your looking for one on ragnarok there is a canyon near the jungle part of the area and down there is lots of water and spino’s are everywhere where so be carful and they spawn around water that is more water then land around, I would recommend to lead it farther into the land because when u hit it it will run into water and pass out there and lots of them does not have enough oxygen to take in the water.

One word they are op I tamed one before and I could one shot basically anything.

These bois are op and usefull, many of them can prob beat the brood mother! But to tame them.. is hard, you need 300 or 400 narcotics if needed and especially bio toxins since they are usefull i tried giving that spino 1 narcotic then i saw it slowly rising up like it gives 300 torpor slowly the last time i tried taming a spino i saw it woke up staring at me but it dint charged since i was far- so dont do the same and give them prime meat or prime fish meat (up if you want to share this to ur beginner freinds)

Ok but why is this guy's torpor drain not considered extremely high? MAX LEVEL TORPOR IS DRAINED IN UNDER 30 MINUTES!!! If you think so too, then you know what to do, the color green should appear in your eye, when you tap the arrow pointing to the sky. I hope all the survivors pillows are cool on both sides the next time they sleep.

Best way to tame one of these spinos is...

1.get to a mountain high enough to prevent the spino mauling you.

2.bring around 100 trank arrows and go ham.

3. When the spino starts running chase that mf down and hope it gets into a corner and hope it’s not it self trying to reposition it self

4.when knocked out feed a whole ton of meat bring hundreds of narcos biotoxin works very well (doesn’t decrease the knocked out dinos health)

5.when tamed after 30 mins enjoy the mayhem you can cause across the map

Up if you liked

Find one by itself, they’re wether in dangerous area’s or next to dangerous dinos, shoot from a high place, they run quick and it’s too risky to shoot from ground, these ARE NOT like rexes, they’re better and arguably scarier. I reccomend a flier mount with lots of weight, but if you don’t like mounts then… put stone BEHEMOTH gateways, NOT doors, at least 3-4. Then add 2 NORMAL sized dino gateways, or do extra behemoth gateways with doors on each end, bring the spino in through one without a normal gateway into a normal one, then try to distract it on the side with the normal gateway then place the second one behind it. You then have it trapped and know you can knock it out! I also recommend bio toxin seeing that’s easier to get and narcotics take a while longer. Enjoy your spino!

They need a lot of narcotics

Tame a low level on ark mobile

All I did to tame one was grab like 20 trank arrows and find a cliff with my flying mount and lure it there, so easy to tame, also makes it easier when you get a 10x soothing balme for free

Get some prime meat, shoot this thing with shocking tranqs from a cliff or flying platform saddle or sm, wait till it’s knocked, make sure there is nobody nearby, give it the prime, put some biotoxin in (for if it’s torp gets low) and defend it. Once it’s tamed, throw the saddle on it, and just make sure that ur near a water source for its buff. Great battle creature, definitely recommend for mid-early tame

These things are hard to tame. I just can’t keep them asleep long enough to eat the meat

When knocked out. Dont leave them unnatended. A stupid dilo came and killed mine at 70%. Wasted allnmy biotoxins and prime meat

I would recommend using a flyer and finding a high rock then tranq Shove raw prime meat Down it’s throat and use a SOOTHING BALM PLS

Ok i use this taming method on rex, spino, and giga. You’ve got to pack ur self a flying mount, tranq arrows, crap ton narcotics, four metal billboards, and a bear trap. Set the signs up in a square near the spino. But LEAVE THE LAST ONE OUT of the circle. Put the bear trap in the middle. Lure it in the trap while on ur birdie and he’ll get stuck. Quickly place the last sign behind him and then fire away!

So its massive and intimidating but not that hard to tame. I have customised my settings abit cus I'm only solo player so my strategy may vary in effectiveness

I was in gloom grove- lost island, there was a waterfall and a hill too steep so he had nowhere to run either side; i took just under 150 tranq arrows and my journeyman crossbow, 163% dmg and 215 durab, I had around 70 trans left afterwards cus I missed afew shots

what I did was fly up to top of valley and build a foundation and catwalk to look out to shoot safely untill he was running then I parachuted down and chased him on my megalocerops (stag) cus hes fast, knocked him, killed any dangers and waited to tame, he was lvl 150 and I used 6 prime meat,

now i use him primarily to get Pearl's and oil from leeches right next to my cliff base, might not be 'the most efficient' to gather them to the pros out there but it's an easy 500 Pearl's and 2k oil in 3 mins running round and spamming attack :)

sorry so long but I couldnt make any shorter

If your thinking about taming one of these bad boys just make a row of 8 large bare traps and in each column put three four large bear traps so when they get out of the first bear trap they get trapped agian

These guys are Easy to tame because it only takes 4 to 10 tranq darts. One spino spawns at the weathertop region at the bottom of the map with a giant cliff you can stand at and shoot the spino at the bottom of the cliff.
