The Spino in ARK isn't historically accurate. A new spino fossil was found. It should have a paddle-like tail. See the forums request to update spino texture and swim speed: ->

I have a level 680 fully imprinted spino he is a very strong battle creature he one hits a level 50 Royale Griffin

It's strong, very strong, but that's all. People here lie. It's like the slowest animal of similar size, unless you put it into running mode, slow in water equally as on land. Stamina does not regenerate faster in the water. Gets stuck everywhere. It's fast when you set it to follow, so ride an allo and set the spino on follow.

Up vot if you feed them stim berries they poop for days tested on ab

This thing is for the swamp only people

Do you know how to change maps in ark mobile? I need help.

Too overrated, they say it is better because it is “cooler” than Rex

Also someone said “not that hard just bring 9999999whateverninetyninesthereare99999999999 Rexes and die”

Lol people in ark don’t actually play the game

Rex is better

Here are my reasons:

Rex is wayyy more tanky

Rex doesn’t have to go in rivers

Rex is easier to tame

Rex is better for boss fights

Rex can one shot more creature

Case closed, no arguments against this.

FUN FACT: Spinosauruses can only be found on rivers

The base attack of this creature is much weaker than t-rex, even though the secondary attack is almost the same as rex but still, rex have their buff.

But don't be sad, this beast is absolutely king of the river, their attack speed is around 2 or even 3 times faster than rex, even though they're bigger than rex, they have pretty low health but they're able to run! Yes running is impossible for rex!.

I tamed one of this in low level, and a low level rex, they're able to take down every therizino in my territory.

Since when was a spino a 4 leged creature?

I’ve got a 270 and it’s pretty decent, is fast, is tanky and does good damage, baryonyx is still better though

Have preferred spinos over rexes since I started, currently breeding like a madman trying to get one to transfer a 160% speed trait but no dice, currently sitting at 12 tamed spinos. One is 46. My rex is 60 low levels right now but eh this is from 1

Is there a spino saddle?

And if there is, WHERE DO YOU FOCKING PUT IT, THE SAIL?

No one, and I mean NO ONE, can say a tek spino would look absolutely amazing, no one. Like imagine the sail on it looking like then tek wyverns (Void wyrm) wings, and mabye even looking somewhat like none of its part connected, like the claws float off the hand, then the hand is off the arm.

Spino is better than Rex in ark. But in real life Rex is way stronger. Spino heavily adapted to living in water and swamps, however Spino had light scales, and it’s sail had nothing to do in water. The new structure of the Spino, for a little of it shown in ark, makes the Spino much adaptable to water. However even though having a strong bite with lots of grip, the new structure shortens the jaw and makes it less strong. The bite may measure 6000 psi, while Rex has a bite force of 13000 psi. Spino’s claws however are adapted to fighting, but the new structure shows that it wasn’t that versatile to fighting on land. Shorter claws and new positioning made a major disadvantage to clawing a huge more-than-15-feet Rex. However this made it really adaptable to water. So it does stands a chance against a Rex. But it won’t defeat it. Don’t believe me? Search it up. Or you could just use the inaccurate Jurassic World that you all believe in. Most websites are inaccurate mostly. So check new research about Spino. I’m just saying so please don’t downvote. I’m here to stop inaccuracy.

There are so easy to tame , but to say they spent a lot of time in the water they aren’t great !

These thing are great for traveling but not very strong compared to the rex because the rex is the tank of the two. I would not recommend use them for the boss fights just use rexs.

It does not take long for these beasts to be able to kill anything. I tamed a low level spino and on my first day of having him, he killed an alpha raptor with ease. Listen ark players, SPINOS ARE OP

These are stronger than the rex, and tame one of these beasts instead of some old rex. 1. they get an underwater buff when up to mid body in the water and farther. 2. on two legs their attacks are faster and stronger then a rexes but they walk slower,and on four legs they are faster, but not as strong. If a tamed one is following you, they will do this automatically, when riding you must do it on your own. 3. They're easier to tame then a rex! So if you're debating on taming one of these bad boys, or the infamous rex, choose this dude. These beasts need more fame smhhh
