Taming & KO Tips

How do I tame a spinosaurus? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a spinosaurus.
If you want to tame a spino on easy get 30 tranq arrows 40raw fish meat 50 narcotics and a high cliff to stand on
and keep shooting it till it is knocked out
Picked up my first spino lastnight; was looking for a baryonyx to start caving, but found this bad ol' 150 boy instead.
I built a 3x4 stone trap, as I watched him kill everything in sight, and led him in. I didnt tranq it out right away, but instead took my ptera back to base, got supplies, and swam my bad B sarco back to the beach, killing a few megalodons along the way.
The sarco does NOT get prime meat, so I had to bail off the back to harvest (or while mounted, but jumping off is easier and faster IMO)... parked in a spike wall fence (wasnt needed) and fed narcotics and went for prime fish when needed.
Easy.
The worst part, in all honesty, was trying to hit the damn thing and not run out of tranq darts, lol.
FYI, I killed EVERYTHING on ny little walk back to my base on Herb Isle. It was average on everything according to the calculator... except melee, hehehe... disappointed in its movement in water, but thats about it, the thing is a monster for sure.
I went to tame a lvl 70 bary.it was killed by a 125 spino.so I decided to tame it.i used 4dino gates pen but when keeping the bear trap I put in middle.it was trapped .but I couldn't keep 4th gate properly coz the spino is halfway out so keep in mind to put the trap somewhat near to the front gate. So it gets trapped completely inside .I tamed it at last on my second attempt
In Aberration, they are super common on any body of water. To knock out simply build a trap near a river consisting on a single behemoth gate and a a semi circle of stone dino gates. Shoot the twerp from inside the trap and close the gate behind him and boom, he is trapped. From there just shoot at his face and remember to feed it raw FISH MEAT which works wonders. Happy surviving, guys!
Just tamed one and its useful o really recommend taming one and its so easy to tame
To tame a spino use a grappling hook a bow and 60 tranq arrows it worked for me.
You will need a trap and a crossbow with blue and white arrows. These things are fast and powerful.
The way I tamed this was to have my friend carry me on his bird and I shot him with tranq arrows. It was pretty easy but make sure to have extra narcotics on you they wake up quickly. But for this to work you need friends. Rip
Bring a LOT! I mean A LOT of narcotics with when taming these babys. If you mess up your starvation timer, you are screwed!
How to tame spino:
You will need: A spino (to tame, duh), a pteranodon with a saddle, an icthy with a saddle, a nearby leed, 40-50 tranq arrows and a bow.
Step 1: hop on your icthy and scrape meat off the leed. Step 2: Hop on your pteranodon and fly to the spino. Step 3: land your pteranodon on a rock for safety, and make sure its on attack target, or it stands there and dies, also make sure the rock is high and not near danger. Step 4: go fairly far back from the spino, and hit it with one tranq arrow. Step 5: hide behind a rock, not too tall so you can still hit the spino. Step 6: keep hitting it, it should get stuck behind the rock and slash wildly. If it starts to run, follow and keep hitting it. Step 7: Once its unconsious, give it prime fish meat. (From the leed.) Step 8: it should tame realativly quick. Step 9: There is your very own spino! put it some where where there is no big threats. ( Allo pack, other spinos or rexes.) Make sure to whstle to stop so it doesn't follow! Step 10: find your pteranodon and fly back to your base. ( if its too high, make sure you REALLY can't get up, if so, make sure no danger is in the area, and request it, then fly back.) Step 11: Find a good spot for your spino and request it. Step 12: Name your friend, and congradgulate yourself. Hope this was helpful! ;D

DAMN 😈 I JUST TAMED 4SARCO,2CARNO,AND A BIG SPINO BY LVL 33,I JUST CAN'T BELEIVE IT!!!!!!,Lot of bio toxin got used 😒but damn it WORTH it.
Tame with raw fish meat at Least and 50
Narcotics if you Use it correctly.
This is just a general taming tip u don’t have to bring most narcotics and narco berries u just kill a few cnidarian jellyfish and u have the ultimate narcotics they better than the usual and easier to make
I was looking for one of these beasts while on my Baryonyx I shot a couple tranqs(20 or so) I had to chase it for a bit until it was knocked, then I just tossed like 20 toxic goo on it like 2 stacks of raw fish meat, and I also slept to speed up the process(on mobile)
When low on narcs. Bonk em over the head with the club. It decrease the added bonus lvl , but as long as you catch who cares?
Spinos are really easy if stand on a cliff and use torpor arrows on, like I did two the first one was pain to get there I was running and sleeping bags were close in case of im dead then when I got there it was he below I was top second as eazy it just right there in front of the cliff and boom i got them both.
All you really need to do to tame these guys it trap them, the way I did that was with 4 stone dino gateways and a bear trap all you have to do is place the gateways in kinda a u formation kinda spread apart not touching so it’ll actually fit the guy in there then just get a bow and shoot him to get him to chase you run though it he’ll get stuck in the large bear trap and then place the last gateway behind him he took about 15- 20 tranq darts depending on the level
