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

If u see a Rex and u a noob then just get as close to your home as you can then let it kill u then when u respawn just tranq it and shoot it in da head a bunch a Times. Or if u bola a tribe mate and let it eat them u can pretty much take it down while ur distracted.

When you encounter a Rex, craft a ballista turret and a chain bola on it and then go for it to kill or tame.Tip:put 10 stacks of raw meat and raw prime meat.Remember, raw prime meat tames them faster!

Find a cliff or somewhere high where it can't reach you, then pump arrows or darts into it. To be extra careful have a flyer nearby to escape if it climbs up.

I got a peteranodon with 1,5k health and around 500% meele and some Meat to forcespeede it, I took some 150 rexes out its Barrelroll is really strong cause IT cant't hiT you

Baby Rex’s can be carried by a argie (a feather flyer) or something bigger. I got triplets on my first try,so if they get stuck grab your argie,pick em up and transport them to a pen or something.

Honestly, I thought they’d be harder to tame! In solo mode I just used tranq darts, ran, shot, ran, and repeat. Easier than I thought! Just make sure you stay with them though. They take a while to tame and will need to be protected. I killed 6 raptors, 4 carnos, and a couple…

I tamed one today with this strategy! You only need some stone pillars and that’s all!

So firstly I placed the pillars in a line with a little gap just so I could shoot through. Then I placed more pillars so it made a box with one side open like a U shape .

Secondly I…

Easiest way: using stone build a 1×1 bunker 2 floors high. Second floor walls should be all windows. Once you've done this, lead the rex to you, get inside and crouch. Now just tranq the hell out of it shooting out the windows.

Get of a Ptera, get the rex to aggro on you, find a cliff, and shoot down at it with tranq darts until KO. Keep an eye out for any raptors or other little dweebs that'll knockdown the efficiency.

If you find one near a mountain get on the mountain and it will just look at you (it might try to climb up if it’s a small mountain/Hill ) then just shoot it in the face with dart tranq arrows etc ( just be careful of other dinos that may be on that hill or maintain with you )

On carnivore island on the island it gets stuck pretty easily. Easy to lead into trees to get it stuck just make it follow you to the tree area. I hit it twice with Tranq arrows then went in with my frog and used its topor attack easy tame. The hard part was protecting the tame…

If taming on the redwood mountain, use the trap method it saves you sooo much stress as it stops the rex from nearly eating you when you get stuck on a boulder and then running away right near to a thyla.
