Player-written tips for taming, using, and fighting the Rex in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.

If you want to tame one of these pretty early, its actually quite easy that you can even do it on foot. Just a crossbow and atleast a stack of tranq arrows is enough (I recommend 2 stacks just in case). Just make sure to lure it into a nearby herbivore and it'll attack it…

This guide is only for low level rexes

Step 1: get a crossbow with about 15 tranq arrows

Step 2: find a Rex

Step 3: run away from the Rex and shoot with crossbow

Step 4: repeat until unconscious

Step 5: insert raw meat into inventory and wait doesn’t need narcotics if…

Argys can carry baby rexes not sure till what age but my Argy carried two baby rexes down from my breeding room on a tree platform

I tamed a rex and called her Rexy. She is fast. Even without upgrades on her speed. Thank god she didn’t die from anything yet.

When you come across a Rex and it is trying to kill you. Try to find a near dino with a high level or any level really. To make it distracted,so you have a chance to get away from it.

To the person that said real men tame these with tranq arrow and a cliff… REAL MEN TAME THESE CRITTERS WITH A BOOMERANG ON FOOT (thank lord I didn’t accidentally kill Fox Trot my rex lol)

One of the best Dinos for base defense, meat runs and guarding your team in general. We have two in our tribe, within the first few hours our female laid 5 eggs. One is level 86 and the other 161, never have had to worry about them in battle, they've held their own against…

So you wanna tame a Rex here’s what you need

Couple hundred arrows or darts

Some prime meat

If a high lv then make a simple 3gate trap place the in the form of a triangle with a bear trap at the middle lure it in close it in and tranq it out ezz or just tame a spino

So I have a Rex and a spino, however when u target something, the Rex doesn’t attack immediately but the spino does. I’ll try get the saddle anyways

I recently tamed a Rex and it was not that hard at all. So if the Rex u are looking for is level 1-15, Then you only need like 30 tranquil arrows. Just find a hill bigger than the Rex and can’t be climed by one, Then get its attention and start shooting. Just don’t let…

This is for new players:apparently base player speed is enough to outrun a wild one,but as a general tip,make sure to level mobement speed and stamina,will always come in handy!

Make all your enemies literally poop their pants with their mighty roar!! All enemy players force poop when your Rex roars.

The Rex, especially above lv 100, with 5k health and 300 melee, is a perfect Alpha killer, and meat gatherer. Our Rexes are constantly encumbered (600 pounds of meat), we do a single meat run per day, then take off the hundreds of spoiled meat, used for narcotics.

Now some people overestimate the rex.It’s actually pretty easy to tame.So there are hundreds of tutorials on taming rexes that you can find on the internet.

You can make traps to trap them and then shoot them with tranq arrows or darts.So what I do is:I build a really…

I tried to tame one *100* and I did not succeed because my kibble rand out and it’s torpor was low and when it woke I ran for my life. DO NOT RUN OUT OF KIBBLE
