Calculate expected resource yield per node for any dino. Select a node type and harvester.
Spino doesn't harvest resource nodes like rocks, trees or metal.
Check the corpse yields below to see what it gathers from creature corpses.
Compare dino harvest yields from creature corpses. Select a corpse and up to 3 harvesters to compare.
Each hit on a corpse generates resource drops based on damage dealt. The game randomly picks a resource from the corpse's loot table for each drop. Higher melee depletes the corpse faster, which can reduce total drops. All dinos get the same resource distribution from a given corpse - the difference is total drops from base damage.
The Spino, a tamable, carnivore creature in ARK: Survival Ascended, is a notable presence across multiple maps. It falls within the DMG classification.
At 805 base HP, the Spino is solidly tanky. With 100% base Melee Damage, the Spino has decent hitting power. Its base Stamina of 350 gives it solid stamina reserves. It carries 350 base Weight - good carrying capacity.
You'll need to knock the Spino unconscious before taming it. Tranquilizers are the standard approach. Exceptional Kibble is the most effective food for taming, offering the highest affinity per feeding.
After taming, the Spino is valued for its harvesting efficiency, collecting key resources faster than most tools. It reproduces by laying eggs, which must be incubated between 30°C and 32°C. Killing a wild Spino yields 60 base XP. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.67 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
