When I was only a noob I was living in a small wood house with my only tame: My trusty dilophosaur Tim. Life was beautiful as I was about to get to metal tier, I decided it is probably time to get a gallimimus for my saddle. I went to find one with Tim, I saw a Rex terrorizing the area, I ordered Tim to go fight it. Tim was lvl 200 and the rex was lvl 11. I stood back and kept shooting it with my ascendant bow. I had my only hide set so my armor was horrible and I was even scared of getting hit by a compy. Tim died and I shot the rex with my last arrow but it killed both of us. And the moral of the story? Get raptors and a fabricated pistol and chitin armor for fight a rex.
