Most of the time I find 1 in the south in each bay. Sometimes they do that because theirs less fish in the bay. It happened when I started the game, sooo maybe find them their, but if there's remaining only a bit of fish then kill em, and dont throw away the raw fish meat it will be used when you manage to knockout a spino, and use 70-100 or more bio toxin! You'll get them in jellyfish!

If you hear your mobile ring and you misplaced it.. run like hell because a spino is staring down at you.. right now..

A good way to get it unconscious without a flying dinosaur is by making 10 stone pillars, 10 wooden ladders then climbing up the pillars and shoot it with tranq darts or arrows, it can't break stone fast so ur safe. Pls don't use less than 10 pillars, I tried and I got pushed of the pillar and just died:( Sorry for my bad English. Hope this helped

Why tame either a Rex or Spino… when you can take both? 😏

Want to tame a super dimetrodon? Read on! Before we get to it, you're gonna want to prepare these things:

DIFFICULTY:

5/ 10: Intermediate

WHAT YOU WILL WANT:

-Taming weapon and ammo (Bow (Tranq arrows), Crossbow (Tranq arrows), Longneck rifle (Tranq/ Shocking tranq darts)

-Taming food (Meat (I prefer raw over fish) / Mutton, Kibble)

-Biotoxin/ Narcotics

Now that you have what you need, let's get taming!

For this dino, there are 2 methods (Honest). Here they are:

METHOD 1: The Trap

The usual. 2x2 stone trap (4 stone floors, 16 stone walls and 4-6 ramps), cost efficient and simple. Lead the spino into the trap and tranq it down. When taming, make sure to watch its torpor as it drains quite fast!

METHOD 2: Trapless

Very easy to perform. Find a spino and tranq it down, and chase it when it runs (Do note the spino is EXTREMELY fast). Also clear the area of nasties (I lost my spino to a Therizino), they like to aggro on everything. Now repeat the taming process and welcome your new spino to your family!

Now, onto the features of the Spino:

UTILITIES:

Spinos are glass cannons, typically having lesser health but more damage than a Rex. They have 2 stances -- The 4-legged and 2-legged stances. The 4-legged stance has a high attack rate but lesser damage, and vice versa for the 2-legged stance. They also have a Hydrophobic Boost, which boosts their stats when they enter a body of water. This increases their movement speed, damage and damage resistance.

That's pretty much it for the Spino! Thanks for your time and check out my other tips!

Sam: I heard your mobile ringing

Dad: That's impossible, I lost my phone on the boat.

Doctor Grant: *Whispers* Run..

Their babies are insanely strong. I breeded my lv 40 and the baby was even stronger then both of them combined! I definitely recommend breeding these guys. Also. Now I can take on that stupid alpha Rex. Don’t worry. I fully imprinted this little guy just like all my other ones. Every one ☝️ is one strength for my baby spino

I just knocked out a 140 spino

It's terrifying

Hey, ok so the center, coordinates 08.1 / 63.4 spinos will spawn there, if is not high enough just kill it, leave the area and come back after 3 mins. Normally works, I found a 150 and I'm taming it rn

You want to tame a fish eating machine?Well who am I kidding you probably are!

First,we need to know what we're dealing with here.

This is a super predator that eats fish.It gets a health regen,speed and damage buff when it reaches the water mid way through the body.

Here's what you need to bring:

To Knock it out

A crossbow/longneck rifle (tranqs)

To tame it

To tame this bad boy you're gonna need fish meat because it semi-aquatic.Use prime fish meat over normal fish meat because y'k it's prime(you can get it from megs or using a sickle to harvest it from normal fishys)

To keep it asleep

Bio toxin/Nacrotics or Nacroberries for a low level

To trap it

You can use the 4 dino gates and bear traps method

Or the 16 ramps,16 floors and 40 door ways to trap it

But I'll use the 4 dino gates since it's easier

Now onto taming

To tame this beast you have to be brave and maybe have a tame to sacrifice (rip big bird)

Locate your desired spino usually they spawn near swamps,south zones,beaches(I only know the Island spawns)

They also share spawns with fishes so kill all the fish in the area and go out of render there might be 1-2 spinos

Build your trap and shoot the spino to agro it.You should now have it trapped now shoot it till it falls asleep.Put the fish meat in and it should be taming.It's torpor drains 1/3 of the giga so be sure to check on it and feed it narcotics to keep it asleep!

Now it should be yours.You can name it whatever you want!

Are you considering taming a fish-eating apex predator of the amphibious (but mostly land) variety? Who am I kidding, you probably are! But for starters; in this tip is what I would recommend bringing or using! You, however can tame this beast in whatever way you think will work! However it’s also good to know what your getting into, now let’s get started! Let’s start with supplies!; Since we are dealing with a apex predator, Be sure to consider packing flak armor sets! As this is the best, cheapest armor to make! Next on the shopping list is the narcotics! When taming this beast it’s best to know that it’s torpor goes down exeedingly quick so I would suggest about 100 / 200 biotoxin to keep it asleep, next be sure to pack taming supplies! I would suggest packing kibble, It likes superior kibble I’m pretty sure, (be sure to check as I might be wrong!) if you don’t have access to kibble, the next step down will be prime fish meat! Also i suggest bringing a fast flying tame, why? For its size, do NOT underestimate its speed, it uses it to eithor run you down or, in this case run away! Now there is two stances the spinosaurus will use! The primary stance it most commonly uses

Is it’s quad-pedal stance, it will stand on all 4s and grants it with a very quick way of getting somewhere, it’s downside is it’s maneuverability to turn! It’s other stance is Bi-pedal, this stance is used primarily by the spino for a damage boost and maneuvering, it’s downside however is it moves way slower than quad pedal, quad pedal doesn’t do nearly as much damage as bipedal! I suggest using bear traps, as the net gun won’t bring this apex predator down, (chain bolas work too!) also consider bringing about 100 tranq arrows or more cut that in half will be the amount of darts you will need,! Taming is similar to that of the most renowned apex predator of the ark commonly known as the giganotasaurus! The spinos torpor goes down half of a 1/3s of that of a gigas! Taming might take a while depending on what you are useing! You now have yourself the fish eating apex predator known as the spino! A very quick and great battle mount in diffrent stances! Also makes a decent bossbattle creature! Hope this helped, and as always happy taming, and take care! :D

How to tame a spino

First you have to be level 30 or above as that is the minimum requirement in my opinion

If u dont wanna spend like 50 hours crafting stone Dino gates then u have to use a high stamina flying tame and go look for a spino underneath a ledge or tall rock, firstly you need to check dododex for the amount of tranqs needed, (use crossbow, bows rlly aren’t for spino and it will take u a lot of time ) after you know the tranqs you need, hit the spino and then test if it can reach u if it can’t tranq it down, if it can find new ledge

The chances of you outrunning a spino are near to zero as they are VERY fast especially being a semi aquatic water animal and being absolutely massive compared to most of arks creatures. After u hit it a couple times it is gonna start running, tip: spino are rlly fast so you have to be prepared to either bolt for it or get on your tame the second it runs, (these things are really fast no cap) either they might get stuck or if u are prepared you can place Dino gates or something behind it on the forehand so when it runs it gets stuck (keep in mind it’s not certain it’s gonna run there)

After it’s knocked out go to a river and get a bunch of fish meat or raw prime fish meat, check dododex as if u use raw meat u’ll miss out on a good opportunity to get levels from the taming efficiently if u were to use fish meat (they prefer fish meat since they swim)

They have decently fast torpor so guard it kill animals that get atleast within 10 meters, a spino is big so it’s hitbox is rlly big and u’ll need to guard it, keep feeding it narcoberries or narcotics, depends on level of level 1-5 u can use narcoberries, besides that boom u now have a tamed spino (location underneath this paragraph sorry for the long writing :) 👇

Location:

They can spawn in the southern islets sometimes it depends usually near rivers or oceans that are near swamps or sometimes even in small streams next to big beaches and ledges, they can be around rexes and brontoes and allosaurus so be careful when u locate your spino, if u want a reallly high level then u need to be very prepared obviously but yea that’s all

(If u still can’t find a spino then check water locations, next to water or in a forest anything like a beach or forest or stuff near water they will be in, they spawn all around the map , besides the Antarctic place they spawn everywhere,).

I’m sorry for how long this was but I tried to include a lot of information just so if you fail to do something in my info their will be a plan B or something but yea hope it helps thanks guys

Keep playing ark peoples🫵🙏

How to tame a spinosaurus: 1. Get a flying mount like a Pteranodon. 2.get a bow and tranq 20 arrows . 3. Find spino. 4. Shoot . 5. Cry in self pity because your lvl 45 and you need lvl 71 for its saddle.Thanks for reading!

RIP Bubbles!

You’ll be my mentor on ARK

I tamed one low level without any trap and just a bow lol just be careful while doing it

Hello survivor, if your reading this then you want to learn about the spino and how to tame it! So welcome to the ARK taming and egg stealing guide on all ark creatures

To tame a spino you will need: four Dino gateways and gates preferably stone because they can damage wood. A lot of tranqs, for a 150 I suggest around 100-135 arrows and if your using darts grab a few less, And a large bear trap or two.

Finding the spino

Finding spinos on the island is pretty easy when they spawn, but they share spawns with fish so the fish might make it so spinos cannot spawn, if this happens just run up and down the river killing fish, once most are dead leave render distance and come back, there should be 1-2 spinos now. On abberation (the map I mostly play on) finding them is easy but it’s more the avoiding them that sucks for abb players. On most maps they spawn in small lakes or rivers and sometimes streams.

Taming the spino

Taming a spino seems like a hard task but it’s really not, all you need to do is make a square out of the Dino gates and it’s one wall missing, that wall should be where you lead the spino in, once you have the square place large bear traps in it and take a flyer or shoot the spino from behind the trap to get it in. Once it is stuck in the bear traps that you put in the trap go up behind it and put the last door and gate. Congratulations! You have trapped a spino!

Knocking it out

I know your wondering why I did a section on this but it’s to warn you, spinos need a ton of narcotics and you will need to be constantly monitoring the area for threats like a Rex or ravagers and you will also need to be constant monitoring it’s torpidity so it does not wake up. I suggest eliminating al hostile creatures around and have you creature out on neutral and set it somewhere to protect the spino and then you can watch it (neutral makes it attck anything that attacks you or the Dino itself).

You now have your very own spino!!

Hope this was helpful

Good luck in your adventures

Hop

Whenever you're taking the Spino, remember to take at the very least 300 narcotics. It wakes up FAST, and whenever your taming ANY creature, surround it with wooden spike walls! Saves me countless tames from smaller pack animals. And to knock it, you simply need steep high ground and go to town with your tranqs. Happy taming!

How I got mine:

Get a pteranodon

Check for other creatures nearby

Land on a really tall, unclimbable rock

Go ham with any tranquilising weapon

Feed much narcotic

Kill stuff for meat and prime

There you go sir, 1 spino free of charge

If you guys want cheap traps, I recommend a Youtuber named Captain Fatdog. He has done traps on all sorts of creatures, including the Spino, and they work really well.

So, I’m level forty in the new game I just started, and I found a lvl 145 by my base and knew I needed to tame it. I used six stone Dino gates and got it trapped by leading it on my lvl 125 pteranodon. The freaking spino kills my flyer and I presume to tranq it. Dododex says only 53 tranqs for a level 145, but it took me close to 65… no misses. My crossbow legit broke on the last shot. Being a low level, I couldn’t really get my hands on prime meat, so I’m camped out next to this spino with my trike, feeding it hundreds of biotoxin and narcs as it slowly eats the fish meat I got ahold of. I’ve got a long three and a half hours ahead.
