This is how I kill a rex

Me:sees rex*

Rex:sees me*

Rex:charges at me*

Me:pulls out ascendant sword*

Game:Me Killed lvl 258 Rex.

Game:rex leaves game

Not that hard of a tame I took my argi and 100 narcotics 50 tranq arrows and I set out to find one. While scanning the rivers I found one trying to get a theri witch was on a steep hill. I noticed the opportunity and I landed on the hill the rec could not get me so I used my…

No trap required. Get a fast mount that you can shoot from while riding it, like a raptor or baryonyx, tranq it while kiting, let it flee to a safe area before dropping it, then secure the area. Starve taming works best.

Rex is slow so don't waste hours making a trap. Land shoot with darts and fly a little farther. Then just get prime meat unless you can't stand 5 minute difference between prime and kibble

I don't know why people say ad foundations or something I do it with just a crossbow with trauqs and shoot of a tall rock or near by cliff but I suggest the cliff because it could climb up the rock and kill the heck out of you and also I littery have 4 of this bios!

If you are going to go hunting with it, it’s best to just wait until you are on the right level and get enough materials to make a saddle and ride it. If you can’t wait till then, definitely don’t hunt near water or the ocean at least. On my first day of my first Rex, I…

Best way I've found is tranq arrows + crossbow + Griffin and hover just high enough to where it can't get you and be in a place without alot of other creatures. It'll stay below you and you can shoot "through" the Griffin down at it until it starts to…

If you do encounter a Rex I would put on your best armor and take out some good weapons if you have at least maybe Bary you should be fine just my idea hope you like it

Is you have the materials to make a large bear trap, taming pen, and longneck rifle with darts just lure it with a flyer and use prime meat or kibble for an effective tame i got a level 50 today on the mountain. I hope you found this helpfulGood luck!

To tame one of these when you are not on a high level, just stand on a cliff or some place they can’t get you then shoot tranq arrows at it or tranq dart or anything that involves tranq then after it has been knocked out go down there get any type of meat and a few narco…

Everyone says: do IT in a mountain. But you have to look out tgat the rex cant climb up. They are good climbers and have a large hitbox. I've lost my saber who couldnt climbe because het was too small and died to the rex, (i followed him a couple seconds later)

A level 15 and below you can simply just shoot and run from then tame it this is a great tactic if you are early game.

25 fence foundations, 30 door frames(all stone,) one behe and one behe door. Aet trap walk rex in. Shoot at your leisure. Tame is fast on evo weekends(x2) with mutton. And all I do for that is knock rex out and build a small 22x1 with walls out of thatch and go get an ovis from…

6 pillars on top of each other. 6 ladders to get on top. Rex will aggro but won’t break pillars so just shoot tranqs from safety of the pillars. Should be easy tame for low level rex if you got the prime meat.

Just tamed one with a crossbow, a rock, a flier, tranq arrows, minor balm, (towards the end) and normal raw fish and meat, turns out these are pretty easy to tame as a male. Now I need to go tame his girl-
