Exceptional Kibble
Overview
Spino is a large carnivore that excels in combat and structure damage. It can be airlifted by Tusoteuthis for rapid deployment across water or difficult terrain. Tamed for its high damage output and ability to harvest valuable resources while ridden, it serves as both a powerful offensive mount and a specialized gatherer in aquatic environments.

More about taming the Spino
Spino must be knocked out before taming. Use a Chain Bola or trap it with a Bear Trap or Large Bear Trap to immobilize it. Tranq Arrows from a Bow, Crossbow, or Compound Bow are effective for sedation. Exceptional Kibble is the best taming food. Raw Prime Fish Meat also works well. About 17 kibble are needed. The tame takes around 78 minutes and requires approximately 297 Narcotics. Use the calculator below for your settings.

Gathering abilitiesHarvest guide
About gathering
While ridden, Spino gathers resources using its bite and swipe attacks. Each attack harvests Bio Toxin at 3× efficiency, making it one of the best Bio Toxin gatherers. Keratin, Raw Fish Meat, and Raw Prime Fish Meat are gathered at 2× efficiency. This makes Spino ideal for farming aquatic and chitin-based resources.

Tips
Spino deals +400% more damage to structures made of Thatch and Wood. Its bite and swipes harvest Bio Toxin at a 3× multiplier, ideal for efficient farming. It takes +400% more damage from spike walls, making it vulnerable in defensive perimeters. When carried by Tusoteuthis, it retains full combat and harvesting functionality. The head is a weak point, taking 1.5× damage - aim there for faster knockouts.
