Player-written tips for taming, using, and fighting the Rex in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.

All around good game, I use them for gathering hide and meat but have spares for an exceptional kibble farm, great for boss fights

Carea more about big prey than you, so try to run past anything bigger and meatier than you, then keep running. It won't take long to kill whatever it finds. That being said, I did see a Rex take a long while to kill 2 carbonenemy turtles

I built a base and went to go look for prime meat to tame this super cute compy (don’t blame me I know you all do too!) and then a Rex spawned near me, I ran as fast as I could but got eaten, and now I respawned in my base with the compy in it and I hear giant footsteps…

In my 4yrs of ark experience I use eqqus to tame these. You can pump health and some melee but not too much or you can possibly kill the rex. You can just follow them around and kick them to sleep. Super easy.

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…

we lost 8 230-283 rexes to a medium broodmother. don't try bosses unless you literally cannot move on the obelisk.

Um normal spinos give more Xp than normal rex but alphas give more xp than normal spino and spino has lesser health just beware of the spino speed.

You need only tranq arrows, a crossbow, a flyer, narcotics, and a type of meat for this method

Look for a Rex on a mountain and get on a level above it. High enough that it can’t get you but low enough that you can see it and shoot it. Then shoot it with tranq arrows until…

If you can tame a few, keep them near the wyvern ravine and lure all the wyverns over to them, one tamed one can take on about 4, this worked for me very well
