Tips & Strategies

What are tips for rex? Tips and strategies for rex in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Rex are worth taming but tek rex and alpha/enraged variants give also legit loot and tons of exp. The best way to farm alpha rex on single player is to fly to carnivore Island and kill a couple of rex until you have the chance of fighting a alpha variant. There's another way, fight on extinction on east,where wyverns and enraged rex are wandering around or even better,fighting tons of 500+ enraged rex and creatures on the legendary OSD(Use the strongest creatures u have in ur arsenal there)
Just find a hill then put some stone pillars down then lead it up then shoot it with darts shove some meat in it then u have a Rex
If you on pvp dont dismiss these guys a group of 3 boss rexes can go toe to toe with gigas and kill it though inlike to use 5 XD and they dont rage. Combine with yutie buff and well good bye gigas
I'm gathering stuff to tame it rn, I have 25 tranq darts, soothing balm, ( The kind you get from hunt: megapirranha) an argy with a saddle and lots of fish meat. Please write a tip if you reccomend I do something different. I'm going to tame it in the redwoods, not the arctic or just looking for one near the swamp. One like = one good luck for me!
How I tamed my Rex (tyranitar) I went to the volcano and got him stuck on a bump I shot him from there but first I tried to bear trap him but he broke out quickly my Argy nearly died but thanks to a saber tooth we got away I came back and start lurring him to another trap butmissedand got stuck and i tamed him now he keeps my diploclaus alive when sarco attack
This is my stradgedy find rex use chain Bola then use a trap of one behemoth gate and three normal ones with a bear trap in the middle then when it breaks free lead it through the trap get it stuck and then close the gale knock it out and there you have a knocked rex now you need the food........
i saw a rex and i just walked away
Taming isnt the same as the charts for xrexs
Dont use flares it wont follow them
If you have high movement speed 125% + you can "kite" the rex and shoot him. If you don't have a pteranodon and fly with it every time you hit the rex.
Try to not get hit. The rex does insane amounts of damage and can kill you in a few bites if you don't have good armor.
Good Luck
You need at least 120 tranque arrows
While using pitfall trap make sure to build stone door frame to the height of 4 that is 4 stone door frame stacked one above another. If you use 3 it will jump out and kill you.
If you want to make a Rex kibble farm, I think I can help.
So you want a low level male Rex. [around 10-15]
And then you should get at least 3 females, also low levels. [around 10-15]
And then boom you can get an easy kibble farm!
[Use this tame to tame Quetzal!]
hope it helped!
I just want to know why did my level 145 rex took more than 90 tranq arrows and it died
For a 130 it said 87 with cross bow…… took a little over 150… to the head…. With 5 second spacing…
I suggest to search for one near a medium-high cliff. They can’t climb most the stuff you can’t jump over actually. Kill all things ( carnivore) in the area. I suggest bringing a flying boi or spine boi for this one. Now, just shoot away. Oh, and he likes fish meat. So use fore mentioned spine boi for that. Bring like, 5 narcotics. And like 10-50 tranquilizer darts. Or 100 bow shoot sleep arrows. Y'all good now. ( and for damage, yes. A rex is definitely top 5. )
I recommend not using a trap if you don’t want to waste materials. I use around ten tranquilliser darts and 100 tranq arrows to knock these out because it’s always good to over preparer. I stand on a really big rock that’s out of its attack range and use all my darts and as many arrows as it takes to start running. I recommend using a flyer once it starts running ( I use an argy) and keep using your tranq to knock it out, hope you found this and if you did please up!
Don’t be afraid they are really slow, just get some raw prime, a crossbow, narcotics and some tranqs and go for it. good starter tame you can have follow you until lvl 70 when you can ride it. also very good for bosses if you have ascendant saddles and high levels
