This is the story of mortem, my female Rex. I was out with my baryonyx to try to find something to tame. We eventually came across a very nice level 35 female Rex, wich was pretty rare in my server. She was white with an orange belly and a dark grey back. I wasn’t sure if I wanted to tame it because I was already breeding spinos at home since I already had a male and female but I didn’t have a Rex yet. I decided to tame it anyways and that was one of the best decisions I made. Me and mortem bonded very quickly and went exploring all the time. Whenever I needed help, she was there. She probably was one of my favorite tames. One day I decided it was time for me to tame a giga because I had already tamed pretty much everything I wanted and was out of ideas. I had gotten everything I needed I had 3 stacks of Tranq darts, lots of prime and a crap ton of bio toxin. I set off with mortem who was now max level and had an ascendant Rex saddle with about 250% of armor boost, wich should be able to absorb the gigas damage long enough to knock it out, though it doesn’t protect against fall damage. We set off to the grand hills and started looking for a giga. She sadly slipped off the side of the mountain. The saddle was not enough to protect her from the fall, and she crushed on impact. I brought the saddle back home and kept her implant as a memory of her because there was no way I could get enough amber in time to revive her. R.I.P mortem, you were one of the best tames I ever had and you will never be forgotten.
