Okay, in my opinion, rexes are overhyped and is a bit of a pushover. I will explain why, and you don’t have to agree with me, I’m personally saying why I don’t really like them and what dinos are better in my opinion.

A - Rexes have abysmal dps. Generally, wild ones(not sure about tamed ones, haven’t used one) bite approximately once every 1-2.5 seconds, which is very low. Scorpions, raptors, therizino and heck, even a gallimimus has better dps than that and I didn’t even include the majority of dinos that have better dps than rexes.

B - Slowness. They are far to slow to escape any danger when low and can be easily shot down or just chased down by just about anything faster than a triceratops.

C - Not tanky enough for its dps and slowness. It just doesn’t have the hp to back up its low dps and speed and can be taken down by just about anything with around 600 hp and high dps(2-4 bites per second) with 20 damage or more. Dinos that can actually pull off this play style and have enough hp for it are ankylosaurus, basilosaurus, mosasaurus, doedicurus, woolly rhino and more.

D - Very low versatility. It’s only viable against low dps land tanks, swarms of low attack dinos and just about nothing else. It can’t swim well at all, it can’t fly and has no range attack, it’s too slow to be a rush down dino, doesn’t have enough damage to take down the toughest of tanks and just overall, not very good against anything else. Dinos that are more versatile than the Rex, similar size and have better matchups are the spinosaurus, therizinosaur, mammoth(sort of), woolly rhino and probably more I forgot about.

E - Not very useful for anything other than PVP/PVE. It doesn’t gather any materials particularly well other than meat and hide, isn’t a good travel tame due to its speed and very low agility due to size, can’t carry anything so it can’t be a transport tame and so on.

Okay, that concludes my reasons on why I personally do not like the Rex. I could very well be wrong about all of this, as it’s just based on my own observations and experience. I would personally recommend therizinosaur, spinosaur, woolly rhino, arthropluera, allosaurus, baryonyx and dimetrodons(plural, as they are best in swarms) as replacements of sorts instead of a Rex. That’s just my opinion though, so you don’t have to listen to me.

I very easily tamed one when i was level 54 they are very good

Did you know how to use tek saddle abilities of T Rex in ark mobile?

1 get a trike

2 get trank dards

3 find a rax

4 get on your trike

5 hit The rex

6stun it whit your trike

7 knock out The rex

8 feed IT whit prime meat/meat

9 wait

10 name IT rexy

I kill a Rex and here is how I did it. I went up to a high place where the Rex and I first meet and killed it with 17 arrows. That is it and have a good time on ark.

4 stone walls and a bear trap to get it

you can't run from these beasts, they are too fast prepare to die :"(

When riding them, the only nerf is their god damn stamina

Rex saddle is no longer level 60 but instead 74. Great, now its going to take even longer to get a rex.

Encounter- Pike it stop being scerd

To tame high level 125+ use metal taming pen

Stop being cheap n use metal

P.s. Destroy ur taming pens So u dont despawn resources tip 2 at least leave it unlocked so the next guy can use it

Rexes are easy to tame prepare around 20 traq arrows and a stack of raw meat first find your Rex then get on a big and steep rock to or somewhere the Rex can’t climb then start shooting until it’s knocked out then put the stack of meat in the inventory and wait until it gets tamed rexes don’t need narcotics and will probably be okay if you leave it alone unless the area your in has a spino or other big carnivores

I have two in ark mobile so pretty easy to tame after you think about it after awhile one named raspberry blackish/blue strawberry red/green very useful don’t have a saddle yet I’m only level 61 rn and btw I’m only 11 and going to make a YouTube channel soon so if you find it please support me dragon puppeteer/gamer/artist/asmr oh and it only took me a few hundred tranq specifically don’t mess up or you loose the Dino arrows anyway hope this helped ;)

Use tek rexes or main Rex for bosses they ain’t to hard to tame go near Carno island or sometimes in snow

Taming These is a must!they are super overpowered, super fast, and shred bosses! I tamed one on mobile and she is the strongest thing on the Island!

If your a noob just go to a cliff don’t use a club if you do he will eat you alive

waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaBLEGH

DON'T FORGET TO FIX YOUR SETTING IF YOUR TRYING TO TAME THESE. I got multiple 2000 hp rexes and was like was these things are terrible. I even killed 2 with TRANQ DARTS. SO PLEASE.. DO NOT WASTW 66 TRANQS JUST FOR IT TO DIE CHECK YOUR SETTING IF YOUR GETTING BAD REXES!

Search up traps for Rex’s. Good bye

This has nothing to do with the rex, but get this to 2021 likes so we have a %50 chance to get a good new year

Meat and prime meant were never easier to get.
