What are tips for rex? Tips and strategies for rex in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Does anyone know if you can trap the rex with a net projectile?
They are so easy to tame because they are idiots so just stand on a cliff and knock ‘em out for they won’t move or try get to you
Up if useful
So uh, i attempted to tame one, it went down okay, it had 102hp left, i fed it some narcotics, as i was gathering narco berries when a random theri spawned on my boat right next to the downed Rex and chunky (my sarco) so of course it attacked my sarco and killing the Rex in crossfire, and yeah I killed that theri with my bare hands for it. So please when you go to tame one of these, stay close and watch out for theri’s.
These guys are actually quite easy to tame, even in early game. You need to have tranq arrows and a crossbow (advised to bring a high quality one if the rex is a high level). Then build a wooden (or stone if it’s going to take long) trap. It’s best to do this in the grasslands because of the generally flat land. Just beware the other dangers around that area.
I’m not sure if the developers did anything about this already but if you go to lost island and go to the “Boskar Meadows” region, you can find level 400+ rexes there. However, you really need to search for them. Good luck trying to find one.
They are fast but can’t get on tall rocks
is anybody else out there always having an spyglass looking at the tranq amount then gets the arrows plus 3-5 and boom
so for the standard tranq arrow u can look at it and make like each arrow 100 so for something with 2309 u need 23 and then plus the extra it’s around 26-28
i often use tot this way bc i kinda live on an raft with my triceratops and an otter but so while the otters food always get bad bc fish, i can just jump on edgar(the triceratops) and get the berries needed but when i’m finally high enough i will use intoxicating arrows except for small breed or things with low health
Spin wide circles around it it’s turning radius is horrible so you can get tranqs off on it
Use a 4x4 stone platform with 2 high stone door frames all around make a ramp on one side and lead it in. Enjoy your Rex.
They roar and make you poop. Then they most likely kill you. Correct me if you think I’m wrong.
In the artic I saw a Rex on some ice there was two I sniped one and killed it right above them there was a flat cliff I got a Rex from snipping it on the cliff we’re it can’t get me
Once me and my cousins found one we were scared but we got our dinos and completely destroyed it so it not that strong
I dont think its torpor drain rate can be considered as high, i think its more like average
Bring along all the cutest animals... open your inventory... get rekt
I usually find these in forests on the island
Easiest, cheapest method to knock out any level Rex is simply build 1 stone foundation,3 walls and 2 doorframes(no reinforced doors needed)....place the foundation down and the 3 walls in a U shape on the foundation then in the gap put 1 doorframe and the other doorframe on top....Then run up to the Rex tickle its balls and once u have Agro make a dash for your contraption run through the doorframe....Spin around, go into crouch and start firing tranq darts at it through the door frame( don't worry it won't be able to bite you as the doorframes are 2 walls high) This works on gigas too but go 3 wall high on door frames and use metal instead of stone. Hope this helps fresh spawns :)))
If you're having a taming pen made out of stone (or else) on a WOODEN raft, don't use it for a rex.
It's great for a LOT of dinos, but a high level rex will destroy your raft to dust (and all structures attached to it, no matter what they are made of) before you knock him out.
They are very easy to outrun even on a basic level, I had three around my base at the beach and I just swam deep enough into the water and they left me alone. You can also run past any animal bigger than you and it will be distracted and leave you alone.
