How to Tame a Rex and tips on a rex.
I recommend for taming a Rex to go to the arctic with a raft with an extended platform on top. The higher level Rex are found in the arctic. The arctic is recommended for higher levels and easy raft access but you can find one anywhere. Tranq darts are recommended for knocking it out but tranq arrows work just fine. You can use any meat with a soothing balm but if you don’t have any soothing balm you should put a preserving bin on your raft and fill it with prime meat. Nothing will attack the Rex while it’s knocked out but they will attack you. Make sure you are standing in a warm protected area while taming your Rex. You will only need between 10 to 50 narcotics depending on the level. Once it is tamed have it follow you or ride it on to your raft (or you can just walk it back but the raft option is safer). Ride back to your base and the Rex saddle is not too expensive to make but you can’t unlock it early even though the Rex is easy to tame. Make sure to upgrade its speed and health stats for best performance on your rex. They are good to breed for boss battles and good for farming levels for your tames with their babies. I don’t kill any of the babies but some people do. They are good for farming prime meat but get knocked out by snakes and scorpions more easy than other big carnivores. Rexes are also good at farming chitin and keratin for saddles and armor. Best resources are found from brontos, paracers, diplos, trikes, and stegosaurs.
Those are some tips on the Rex.
