Make 2 stone dinosaur gates and 20 stone walls and make a pen with dino gates on each end and and fence foundations as markers of ur pen size and put 2 walls next to the dino gates and 2 high and 4 on the left and right 2 high

Try getting a friend to fly a quetz or smaller bird while you shoot rex in the head, if it heads towards water fly to it and guide it to land and rinse and repeat.

- can NOT navigate large rocks or some trees

-can you remember your safety spots and retreat zone if things go south?

Build a taminging raft 3x2 and 2 walls high put Ramps at one end and lead the Rex onto and into the trap with a bird then drive back to base and KO

The easiest method ive found to tame a rex is to lure it into a taming pen made of stone dino gates. Lure with a flier or on foot by closing the gate furthest from the gate you entered from. Then close the gate behind the rex. ( yes rexs can walk through dino gates! So doors…

Good strategy if you're low enough to only have tranq arrows is to find a cliff high enough that you can shoot the rex without it being able to attack you.

That way any level is able to tranq it to tame it.

If you have a tribe-Have a friend carry you on an argentavis, and shoot it till it goes down.

If you're alone- you can: make a trap out of wood or stone with a bethemoth gate with a box inside so you can shoot it safely.

Or you could: make a ballista and a chain bola…

If you are just beginning your journey and don't have many Dino's, I suggest aggro it and run to to a Cliff where you can begin tranqing it. After it has been knocked out take spike walls and place them around it (make sure you leave a gap for you to get to it 😛)

Make a trapper boat from metal. 2 walls high all the way around then a ramp for the rex to walk up. Lure it in with a bird or by foot. Then it's safe for transport and taming. Can tame over water and have no worries. Take 2 walls down and walk out when done.

You can kite said Rex into a rock or stand above it and shoot it if it starts to run after a couple shots it is not going down but simply finding something else to attack or repositioning itself if it is the first then chase it or shot it again but don't let it hit you…

There are multiple places to find them in the center map but in the original map and scorched earth.in sorched earth you head to the center of the map or to where the giant spikes are you can knock them out any way that you can but I suggest to bring as many tranq darts as…

Rex's tend to get stuck on rocks easily, so what you should do is find a valley like spot. (( all on one side and then another on the opposite side) then what you want to do is use a bird to find a way up to the top of the cliff line, start pounding tranqs. Onice it drops…

The best way in my opinion is someone carry you on an Argentavis and you shoot it in the head with tranquil arrows or darts. This method works on most dinosaurs and is the safest. Have fun using this tip and I suggest getting dodo dexter pro it makes it better without ads.

Make a 4 by 5 box base (specifically stone material to insure no breakout) make three sides of the box with door frame walls about 4 high (use stone material)to make shooting the tame easy and efficient to shoot through. On the 4th wall side add 3 rows of ramps to lead the tame…

Once knocked out, you can honestly get away without taming spikes if it's just a good Rex. Nothing naturally attacks them in the wild if it's not fully tamed. You don't need to waste material and sit next to the rex if you're kibble taming it for 3 hours.…
