What are tips for rex? Tips and strategies for rex in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
All you need is a few spears and rocks
Place a stone foundation near Rex spawns. Then place 3 walls a door frame and a door on it. Next put 4 door frames on top of that do it should be two walls high. Then place a ceiling. Now get inside of it and shoot the Rex through the door frames on top. It won't be able to hit you. You can also tame gigas if the building is metal.
Chain Bola does not last very long....
If there is a hill with a cliff try luring the Rex under the cliff and getting of top of the cliff. Makes a Rex tame so easy you could do it with ur eyes closed......
Make a bunch of pillars and ladders then put a roof on top then start tranqing easy just don't make the towers to tall
One time I was on smalls and knocked out a 135 with a slingshot and my other friend. It had 50hp left and someone killed it when it tamed on a 365 mana
Knocking out a rex is easy get enough movement speed and just shoot it on a cliff if it gets on the cliff parachute down and shoot it.
DO NOT TRY TO TAME MATE BOOSTED X-REXES! Please for the love of god separate them. They take enough tranqs as it is, so don’t try it because you definitely won’t have enough tranqs to get them. I know from experience…
So I was level 81 looking for a Rex and found a lv 85 male I built a trap 16 stone door frames 4 wooden ramps and 4 stone foundations for the trap it escaped once but got back in and boo that thing was a pain it took almost all my tranq arrows and broke my crossbow and resorted to fists then I knocked it out and it was at 49hp I speed feed it meat to get its health back up then now I have a lv 125 male Rex!
I was bombarded by raptors while taming this but I managed to tame it after that I wondered how to get it to herbivore island and when I made him swim he swam fast, and way faster than me.
I would run away but not far to aggravate it to follow me and knock it out with either darts, tranq arrows, or a slingshot.
If you have a Sino or a tek suit u can just hover above it and shoot down and it will just stand still until they run from torpor
On extinction they can get stuck on mountains for an easy tame
1. Find a rex
2. find two Rocks that are near to each other
3. shoot it and tame it
The Rex good at:
-Tank
-Prime meat Collector
-causing other low level dino to poop when roar (only heard, not seen it with my very eye yet)
-wipeing dino life
But Rex bad at:
-Small attack radius which mean other creature can hit it from the side or back without you hitting them
-have hard time trying to turn around
-Can swim but lose oxygen while doing it
That all i know for know
Because rexes are slow, you can keep up with it and knock it out when it fleeing so they are easy to tame
Easiest way to find them is in snow biome on the island map, i found alot of them there
Build a tower of metal
Then shoot 100 tranq at’em
Run and keep shooting
Shooting
Shooting shooting and btw only shoot and run when he runs which is a while
When he’s down shove meat down his throat and give narcotics
Narcotics
Narcotics Narcotics
Boom a rex tamed and ready up if helpful
Tip: How to escape Rex
Run while it roads as it aggro’s you
If on multiplayer, you can use an argentavis (because of the stamina) in order to pursue one while taming. Have a guy get picked up and fly that guy right over the Rex.
I recommend the person shooting to go in third person to aim. It’s pretty hard to see otherwise.
You won’t even need bear traps!
(I’m quite sure this works for pretty much anything, but at the point where you’re taming a rex, you should probably already have an argy on you.)
Just be careful when chasing it when it’s low on torpor. Try to get it stuck—it may be a little faster than you.
I tamed my high level rex(435) in the Arctic i was trying to find a high level direwolf then i saw it, so i tried to knock it out although i'm only lvl 36 i'm pretty confident cuz i have good ascendant bow and they're easy to get stuck lol, i'm pretty happy actually cuz i have an ascendant rex saddle from the january promo. I'll use my rex to kill the alpha rex that spawned near my base when i'm level 13+ i think, i can use an otter too and do spyglass glitch but i tried it many times but my otter always die cuz of stomp damage (i reverted my save)
I also found a level 435 spino near green obelisk i'll try to tame it next, i'll prolly tank it with my rex since the nearest high cliff was a bit far from where it spawned
Just sit on the back of a tanky dino that you can shoot from, stego or anky work great for me
