What is a spinosaurus used for? spinosaurus battling strategies in ARK: Survival Evolved.
Bring this to swamps, not only they have high torpidity incase of titanoboa but they get waterbuff so u can cross safely and if you don’t have a mount you can hide underneath it’s belly whenever it says you have entered a danger zone and not feeling like getting bitten by a krapro, press up if this was helpful :)
One thing about Spinos is that they really really REALLY love to make babies, I had two Spinos Finn and Spinnerella, TWO! And when I came back from a hunt to make a saddle I had 3. Let me tell you they almost always come out female I swear to god, so later I had 5, then 9 then 13 because some were boys and now I have 26 in 10 hours and a lot of fertilized eggs. (Also I play on a solo unmodified server on island with the smallest little hut with a moschops, a big eagle thing, a Rex, a turtle, 2 pteranodons, a Tapejara, 2 parasaurs, a trike, a monkey, a beaver, a small raptor, an anky, a small handful of lysta- things that you pet, 12 raptors, an otter, and exactly 48 dodos that are about 500 hp and damage for each one. And after Finn and Spinnerella getting in bed constantly and a lot of incest I have a growing army.) so with all that said get a male and a female Spino, and don’t be stupid like me and getting close to one with a sarco to see its gender. Just get a spyglass.
The spinosaurus is a piscivore, meaning it eats primarily fish (not pie..), and to tame it, it prefers fish meat and prime fish meat over regular meat. The Spinosaurus is able to change how it stands, going from four feet to being bipedal. Whilst it is bipedal, it is slightly slower, but attacks in an area around it, attacks slightly faster, and may do slightly more damage. Whilst on four feet, it is much, much faster, faster than nearly anything else, but has less of an attack range and area. When in water, it will gain a “Hydration Buff Enabled” buff, which will last for a good thirty seconds out of water. This buff drastically increases its movement speed, at least by fifty percent, making it even faster than a gallimimus whilst on four legs, and increasing its attack power. It attacks at a decently fast speed, and its swipe attacks have a large area further than its arms, along with applying a large deal of knockback to anything in the range. It has high health, weight, and oxygen, but its stamina drains quickly when running whilst not affected by the Hydration Buff, so you should mind your stamina and your sprinting, so that you don’t get exhausted. For the cementing paste, especially with mastercraft and journeyman recipes, with my journeyman spino saddle’s blueprint cementing paste cost of 297, I would suggest first getting a high-tier axe or hatchet, possibly mastercraft, and also a primitive crossbow, a simply shotgun, and ammo for both, and head to the Artifact of the Massive’s cave, the lava cave on the Eastern edge of Drayo’s Cove, and use the crossbow at a far distance to ago Pulminoscorpius and Araneo to you, and kill them with the shotgun, and harvest their chitin with a hatchet to make cementing paste. Spinosaurus can be found near the river next to the Hidden Lake in the Northern regions, nearby the Redwoods. I found two females there yesterday, and they seemed to have no threats to themselves in the near area. They can be knocked out with tranq arrows, as I did with mine, and can hold their own in battle. Either way, I hope that this has helped. From.: OMEGA, Hunter of Shadows..
The ultimate guide to Spinosaurus
They can be found on The Island, The Center, Ragnarok, Extinction, Valguero, Crystal Isles, Lost Island, and Fjordur
There is also an Aberrant Spinosaurus that spawns on Aberration, Valguero, Crystal Isles, and Fjordur
There is also an X Spino that spawns on Genesis Part 1 (they should spawn on Lost Island but they are exclusive to Genesis Part 1)
They get a hydration buff when they touch water
Their saddle can be unlocked at level 71
They are immune to the Baryonyx’s Tail Spin
They have a quadrupedal and bipedal stance (They deal more damage in bipedal stance but move faster in quadrupedal stance)
With a higher damage output and more stamina than a rex, the spino is an excellent alternative. The turning radius and hit box of spino makes it easier to hit targets as well, much easier than a rex. Not to forget the spino also shines in water, moving faster than it does on land and consuming no stamina while swimming, it makes for great escape route.
Overall the only negative thing I can say about it is that it's speed on land is slightly slower than a rex. If youre keeping it inland, consider putting a few points in speed.
Lmao I love how people tear each other's eyes debating whether a Rex or a giga should be breed for mutations, while this guy is slept on. If a rex, giga and spino are same level, spino will beat them in dps and the massive knock back and attack speed render everything but sauropods and flyers unable to approach, it beats them in speed stamina and oxygen 53 times a day, their only advantage is the hp but that is undermined by the spinos op attacks. Beats both in everything but hp, yet is so ignored...
Isn’t really consistent) and they lack knock back.
5. Looks. Ok. Listen. I know this sounds biased, but, come on, look at the spino. It sail gives it its distinct look and makes it stand out. Meanwhile with rexes “WAIT OMG IS THAT A GI- nope. Never mind, it’s a rex”
So, that’s my argument on why spinos are better than rexes. Don’t get the idea I’m calling rexes useless I just think spinos are a bit better.
Tysm for reading (*^u^*)
spinosaurus is alarmingly fast on land and, in water. they are deadly but, easily avoidable. they only reside in rivers and lakes, they can sacrifice speed for strength as they can stand up to deal much more damage, allowing them to plow through weaker dinos such as trikes or allo's, and can easily tear through a rex with minimal effort. 8.7 for its great speed and need to bish slap just about anything with a pulse, while being a good way to body an enemy rex just by slapping it.
