I have 7 spinos. One is level 39 and 84% imprinted. Even though it isn’t fully imprinted and not too high-leveled, it has the ability to mow down the Dead Island like an industrial size lawn mower on someone’s puny little backyard. Especially if it has the Hydration buff. It’s so fast I used it to tame my giga by leading it into a trap. Do not underestimate spinos. With plenty of hard work and patience, you can destroy everything except gigas, Titans, and bosses. Everything else gets creamed.

Do you know how a giga trap looks like? Well using 4 stone gates and 2 giant bear traps works just as well. Doing this however pushed the spino into the ground and with it bitting the gate makes it a tiny bit harder to hit its head but once tames it will stand normaly after you demolish the gates.

1. Make a U shape out of gates and place 2 giant bear traps inside it

2. Lure the Spino into the opening

3. Once its stuck on the trap run behind it and put the gate as close as you can to the trap, Spino is long so dont wory if theres a big gap it will still work

4. Enjoy tranqing it. Try to kill a few Sabertooth salmons and harvesting them with a sickle for prime fish meat

For the love of God, make a trap to keep it contained and keep it away from the water as much as possible so the dumb thing doesn’t drown itself when you knock it out. These dudes are an absolute nightmare to tame if you aren’t prepared enough. At the very least, bring 50 narcotics to be on the safe side because that torpor drops FAST. Also, use darts, arrows can be risky since a Spino’s health is usually pretty low to begin with. Kibble, prime meat or mutton is the best and quickest way to tame them and you won’t use as many narcotics to keep them down. They are insanely fast and frustrating and I hate taming them but they are pretty powerful and are handy water mounts to have. Good luck and don’t be like me where one of the buggers ran off into the ocean and was never found again.

I tamed two of these in one day (male and female)! They are so awesome and very easy to tame. Haven’t ridden one yet as I haven’t got all the ingredients to make a saddle but nonetheless, still an amazing beast! Very fast on land. When I speed fly on my Argy, it’s easily as fast. Get one! Or two! Or more!!!

Tip: when you are going to knock out a spinosaurus that next to a high ground go to that highround and you can knock out your spino safely

(This tip does not work if the high ground is like a ramp and the spino can get up the high ground and also when it already got knock out make sure you have so many narcotics beacuse this guy torpor drains quickly)
