What are tips for rex? Tips and strategies for rex in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
You can build a pit fall trap using stone walls make and a ramp in to it make sure there’s a Dino gate somewhere in the trap so you can escape and tame the beast
To the guy who said find these at top left island, it’s top right. Carno island, also known as carnivore or monster island.
It may not say is but if a Rex eats any thing he gets tons of health. I think the bigger the kill the more health. Hope this helps
There are 5-10 recess near my base, what do I do?
One time when I was playing on Valguero I had a wood house on the beach and a Rex fell from a cliff and slaughtered all my tames. This also happened to me on Ark Mobile.
Just build a trap of stone pillarrs, place a trap inside and lure it inside with a flyer. Then you can place a gateway behind it and you can knock it out easily.
The best way to tame them that I use is just to bait them into a trap or make them get stuck on rocks, you can also kite them to wild dinos because the rex will go after them instead of you
Carno island has some. If you go there, lead them to that giant rock (pp rock 1) then fly up on flyer. Shoot at it with tranq arrows and Rex
Do not try to kill a rex having a heart before his name if you hit him 1 or more t-rex come to kill you
You can find them lingering around the hidden lake
If you run into one you want a wee dent rifle
To tame A Rex get on the Rock so it can’t Get you
These guys are kinda hard to tame but this is for mobile players,you'll need a cross bow and a hell lot of tranq arrows,the higher the level the more arrows you need but this is also for low level players and try taming a low level rex as well,if you don't have enough stuff scope it from afar rexes aren't super fast like spinos,or use the terrain to knock it out,that's how I tamed my spino Aurora,otherwise use a trap,knock it out and feed it exceptional kibble or scorpion kibble on mobile,use a soothing bam for easier taming if this was helpful ^ pls:D
Get a griffin and shoot tranq rex it’s easier that way
Ps:this tip is fir mobile

taming a rex isn’t easy…
from my experience, here is how to do it:
1) PREPARATION
assuming you found one, there is a bit of preparation to be done, you need at least 30 tranq arrows (give or take a few, due to levels).
- get a crossbow, if not get a bow, the important thing is that the weapon you chose is compatible with tranq arrows.
-next, for tameing, you will need to harvest bio toxin from mitocondrias (blue belly fish found in the sea). this will raise the torpor level if it is running low, and it will avoid losing the rex after having knocked it out.
-get a lot of meat (3 stacks should do the trick, but it really depends on the level), this will allow the tameing bar to fill up: as you have probably guessed, it is not vegetarian…
2) K.O (knock the rex out)
-get the ranged weapon you are using and put it in your hot bar, then open your inventory, and drag the tranq arrow to the same slot as the ranged weapon. This will select the tranq arrow as the ammo for that weapon. If you hold the weapon in your hand, it should say something along the lines of
(weapon name)(tranq arrows loaded/number of tranq arrows)(tranq arrows)
eg, if you had a crossbow with 30 tranq arrows, it would say
crossbow (0/30) tranq arrow, unless if the arrow is loaded.
To knock out the rex, you want to find a cliff near it, and get to the top (a flying mount may be helpful). Now, just wait until it is close enough to shoot accurately, then fire away with your tranq arrows. If it starts running away, hop down the cliff, and continue shooting it (only do this if it runs out of range!!). repeat until it gets knocked out.
3) TAMEING:
careful not to hit it again, get to the rex and open its inventory, then put all the meat and bio toxin in its inventory.
from this point on, patience is required…
If you notice that the torpor level is dangerously low, feed it the bio toxin, it will raise the torpor level by 80, but, oddly enough, won’t harm the rex in any way. If the remaining meat spoils, or you run out of it, you might want to harvest more before it wakes up. when it wakes up, if you managed to tame it, it will tell you in a prompt, otherwise, you didn’t manage, and you should run as fast as possible in the other direction.
NOTES:
-tranq arrows need the mortar and pestle to craft, since you need to create narcotic (narcoberrys + spoiled meat), then combine it with stone arrows.
-a primitive bow may break before you can fully K.O the rex, so bringing two or three might be a good idea
-avoid tameing it near water, because it is defenceless against sea creatures like mitochondria or rays.
-find a solo rex, unless you want to tame two at the same time, which would be considerably harder.

The cheapest trap for rex are the traps of the other players around.
Just walk around the trap instead of trapping it the trap.
If it flees catch it up and shoot, it will turn around and get agro again and then do the walk around trap thing again.
I prefer tranq darts, with arrows u need a ton
Are allos or rexes better for bosses?
Don't waste your time for making traps I know it's work but it's a time waste U should find a High place U can easily find it with petradon and use taranq arrows and biotoxin to knock out him and biotoxin
BECUZ it's torper rate drop Faster U know U should try it 👍🏼
