What are tips for rex? Tips and strategies for rex in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Who ever thinks Rex are not stealthy they are wrong I was trying to tame a para when this thing comes out of nowhere
If you ever see one and it sees you here's how you tame and stun it
So there's a glitch in both games where there's a rock glitch
The rock glitch works like this
1st you find a rock
Make sure you can't sprint or walk up the rock
Make sure you can easily jump up and climb the rock
Look for something you want to tame
Get club ( clubs are harder or extreme mode to tame) or tanq ( easy mode) or anything you can use to kill
Find the rex then run up the rock ( PS: this works for any other animal including spinos)
The rex shouldn't be able to run up the rock so you can safely hit him or shoot him also melee is impossible any melee weapon is dangerous and I suggest you don't use them (why: they can still hit you and when they do you get knocked off the rock and have to run) also make sure the rock is big and tall or else they can walk on it
Pt 2 coming at 50 ups
Honestly I’m the odd one out... I tamed one with a journey bow and a dire bear. No gates no platforms nothing. Just a bow a bear and patients. Hmph I’m weird

If you want to tame this massive behemoth it’s pretty slow and you should be able to knock it out from it but if you want to trap it; I recommend one of captain fatdogs videos
Rexes can be found in the forests, redwoods, and mountains.
Don't go near them without a plan learned the hard way
Since rexs are the second best land carnivore (behind giga) I would recommend just leveling it for PvP. Like on all my 150 kibble tame rexs I go for 10k health then 500 melee damage and then put the rest of my levels back and forth between health and damage.
PS: A good 2nd-5th gen Rex can and will kill tamed gigas
They can hurt
1. Get a scorpion, kapro or 600 tranq arrows
2. Only upgrade health on the scorpion!!
3. Attack while riding scorpion or use tranq arrows.
4. Make sure you have meat- prime meat works best!
5. Shove food in it's mouth
6. 👍
Dont be scared of them, get a flyer and make sure to have a high health and stamina, fly at him (make sure its only one or your dunso) and let him take a bite of your flyer once in a while then lead him into a square wall of dino gates with a trap in it. Once he is stuck quickly close up the open gate, laugh at him and shoot him (alot)
How to raise and tame a good Rex
1. Use crossbow with tranq arrows or rifle with tranq darts
2. Find the Rex a tough opponent to defeat
3. While he or she is fighting, open fire on the king or queen
4. Once the Rex is down feed it prime meat alongside with normal meat in case you run out of prime
5. Use narcotics on higher levels bio toxin might be needed.
6. Once the Rex awakens take them hunting for large dinos and bosses too but they have to be extremely high level
7. When leveling up switch between health and dmg upgrades
Please take good care of your tyrannus. PEACE
Easiest tame ever u need 15 to 50 tranq arrow depending on level and a 700 hp iguadon or gallmis (seriously) with a crossbow run and hit him till knocked out feed it anything u got wait here is ur rex and after u get 2 u have a infinite rex factory ( a spino is better but harder than this to tame in early time)
Disclaimer: if you are on any other platform besides old mobile then ignore this tip.
On old mobile these things are neutral to all tames, meaning that if you try to lure a wild rex to a rando's base to be evil and they have all their tames set to passive, then that's not gonna do anything unless you manually aggro the rex onto you then tank each hit with your tame and the dude's tames in the rex's hitbox until something dies.
This also means that if a rex is near your base it won't be a huge problem until it is practically walking on your tames and your structures, in which you will have to kill it before it gets aggroed on you then starts attacking things in its way.
This also applies to gigas
However if you try this on any other platform including ark use you and your tame will get chomped up as wild rexes are aggressive to all tames.
Step 1.get a bow or crossbow
Step 2.get a crap ton of trank arrows
Step 3.find a rex
Step 4. Find a cliff that the rex can’t climb
Step 5. Lur the rex to the cliff
Step 6.shoot the rex until it is knocked out
Step 7. Feed the rex raw meat/prim meat
Step 8. Enjoy Your rex
No real men knock it out with a club
There easy tames no traps needed just use a tranqs and crossbow rifle optional
All you need is a decent crossbow and some high ground with a good amount of Tranqs
Once I spawned in and there was a black rex right in front of me. It just looked at me and then dicided to kill me. It could not have been more successful.
