Lightning Spino — Detailed Guide

The Lightning Spino is a lightning-infused Spinosaurus, one of the Lightning Creatures of Astraeos in ASA. The base Spino is a strong amphibious predator, and this version is stronger again and always aggressive.

Where to find it

Only on Therokis, the fiery region of Astraeos.

How to get one

It cannot be tamed, ridden or bred. Tame a normal Spino if you want one.

Uses

Corrupted Nodules and a chance at a Corrupt Heart.

Tips

  • Defenses: turrets do reduced damage and Metal Spike Walls do none to Lightning Creatures.
  • Weapons: the Enforcer deals four times its normal damage to them.
  • PvP: they can damage Tek-tier structures.
