I feel like the spawn of these on the island have been messed up since they added the cerato
Just go to a cliff so it can’t reach you and shoot it from there
Use stone trap and keep distance with tranq darts.
I am a noob,level 24, and I knocked one of these bad bois out without a trap or anything.
Explination: I grabbed thirty tranq arrows,thirty-six narcs and went over to a cliff and started shooting it took only 13 of the arrows because #1 im on mobile, and #2 because it was low level.
I hope you enjoyed my lil explination :)
If you fly to where the beach touches the snow biome on the west coast of the island there's a huge rock you can tame them easily from. Nothing naturally attacks them when they're KO'd so you can just leave it there
How to tame a T-Rex for dummies:
1. Find a mountain or forest biome, Rexes usually spawn in these biomes.
2. Head back to base and craft up a ton of narcotics, I usually go with about 400, but I always over-prepare. Also, make sure you have at least 80 tranq arrows, or you might not knock it out.
3. Find a high rock with a flying dino, an argy is perfect, and do NOT underestimate how far up it can hit you.
4. Hit the Rex with your argy and guide it back to the high rock mentioned earlier while it’s aggro’d, hit the T-Rex repeatedly, and go for headshots.
5. The Rex will wander away from time to time during the process, make sure to hop back on your argy and remind him who’s boss. (Aggro him again)
6. After it’s Torpor is high enough, it will eventually flee, don’t get too close to it, but follow with it with your argy, landing and firing tranq arrows occasionally.
7. It will eventually knock out, and you will NOT want to put any food in its inventory yet. Instead, put it on a tracker and monitor its Torpor from time to time. Now would also be a good time to go and round up some prime meat, which is an excellent, easy-to-get food for the Rex.
8. Return to the Rex with your prime meat, (a little extra never hurts) and feed it some Narcotics, to raise its Torpor again. By now, it’s hunger should have dipped a considerable amount, and now you can put the prime meat into its inventory.
9. Protect your T-Rex while it eats up, some creatures will attack it while it is KO’d.
10. Enjoy your T-Rex! (And make sure they have LOADS of food in their inventory at all times)
So i just found out i have tek Rex near my base
Now let me tell you about the time I used a sharpened clam shell to turn a T-Rex into a T-Rachel
For me personally I took a ascendant crossbow and it took me 6 shots to knock out a level 60 and sooner or later he will be a happy boi
Incase this helps anyone, on ark mobile there is some near East zone 1
I remember when I first started the game I spent two hours taming a lvl 75 with a sling- then my game crashed and I lost everything-Rip Cruel Tyrant
All I do to tame max levels is just run around shooting it with trank arrows from my 225 dm crossbow.
How to tame rex ez instead of making a trap find a tall cliff then knock it out with rifle or tranqs then feed it exceptionl kibble (scorpion kibble ark mobile) and narcotics I recommend bio toxins but idc ur opinion.
Just a casual day and oh IT’S A REX FIGHTING A SPINOSAURUS.
Once tamed are great and with a saddle better but they can’t swim well and here’s the big one they take huge fall damage so don’t go thinking jump off a mountain because he can’t it will Die but believe me I tried
On mobile I knocked 240lvl but when I go to get meat (kill some dinos) it despawns, and yes I know nothing killed it because I have my tapejara next to him but on my luck and my experience from before I saved data when I knocked it. Beware guys do not leave them alone they can despawn on some places espesauly in volcano, under blue obelis... And sorry for my bad english, hose I helped. ✌🏻
If you’re not going to use a trap, I suggest riding a griffin or another flying mount that allows weapons, although taming a high level Rex is much easier with a trap as it ensures it won’t die attacking another creature. My trap suggestion is rather simple. You place down 3 stone Dino gates (not behemoth) in a square shape and hold onto the last one. Then you lure in your chosen Rex with another tame (this is the difficult bit). Once it starts attacking one of the gates, place the 4th behind it, and then happy tranq-ing. Hope this helps you :).
