ARK: Survival Ascended features the Spin as a tamable, carnivore creature that survivors will encounter in the wild. It falls within the Misc classification.

Stamina sits at 150 base, providing moderate endurance. Its base Melee Damage sits at 100%, giving it decent hitting power. With 200 base Health, the Spin is not particularly tanky. It carries 150 base Weight - average weight tolerance.

To tame the Spin, you need to knock it unconscious using torpor weapons, then feed it while it's down. Feed it Superior Kibble for the fastest tame and highest effectiveness bonus.

Once tamed, the Spin is primarily used for resource harvesting, excelling at gathering specific materials. Breeding produces fertilized eggs that hatch within a 4°C–12°C temperature window. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.04 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
