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
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 :).
as u can see darts are the most effective. load up, have a friend pick u up in a bird, and fire away. i suggest the spike wall tactic just to be safe if you want a perfect tame! we got ourselves a 150 female earlier today and woke up at a lv 220!!
Once I went to tame it. I was ready with everything,when I shot it with my first tranq arrow it died. XC XC XC
killable by therizno.
Some say no creature attacks one which is knocked out, welp hyaenas killed my 140
Just a casual day and oh IT’S A REX FIGHTING A SPINOSAURUS.
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. ✌🏻
Why are rexes usually found in the arctic? It’s the coldest place and the most dangerous (besides swamp, maybe).
Here’s a tip that might work
If you want to tame any knockout tame trap the creature then place a bed or sleeping bag sleep knockout the creature when you wake up and put the food in its inventory it would eat the food fast and securing an easy tame but bring the creature to a safe place so it doesn’t die
I accidentally found this trick while taming an anky
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.
If you play ark mobile please answer. I wanted to tame a 145 rex and he never made it to the trap because he died to a 125 tickle chicken. I have his implant to revive him. It cost 40 amber, and I have 37. I can get this amber in 2 daily pursuits. Tell me should I revive him. Yes or no. Someone comment if yes or no on Everything Else New.
I saw an alpha just chilling in the snow area
I just wanted oil not a fight with that 63k hp alpha rex
As you prbly know I ran like U couldn't run
If you don’t know where they live they live in red woods maybe near swamps because I saw near a swamp in north and that it
Hey Dino Tamers! Wanna know a simple hack to taming this big fella? Follow the steps below:
1. Grab around 20 or so LARGE bear traps and about 45 tranq darts, along with plenty of meat.
2. Find and locate an open valley containing a singular rex (the valley is optional, but a lot safer).
3. Place around 15 of the bear traps in a gathering on the ground in the SAME GENERAL AREA; it is recommended that you are at a safe distance away from the rex.
4. Shoot one tranq dart at the rex, and run behind your bear traps.
5. Keep shooting at the rex as it comes into the traps; the rex should get stuck with every step that it takes.
6. Once knocked out, fill the inventory with meat and bam! Shortly after, depending on what you feed the beast, you should have yourself a slayer feared by all!
Hope you enjoyed! Stay safe and happy hunting! <3
The bread and butter of the Rex is their high Health. A good way to find a high Hp Rex and know it's Hp stat before KO is to ride a mount and use the magnifying glass to see it's health. Griffins, Sabers, and direwolfves are all good mounts to ride while trying to use the magnifying glass on the Rex. Between 7000 and 10000 is what you want to aim for to make it worth taming.
Run close to it and keep running around it and shoot it with tranqs(It has a big turn radius so you won't need a trap)Make sure not to run in a straight line
For noobs, low level rexs spawn at the southeastern part of the map
Equipment Taming
1 Longneck Rifle.
Around 200 Darts incase. Depends on lvl
4 Stone gates.
1 Large bear trap.
Place 3 gates next to the large bear trap.
Get the rex attention and run past the bear trap.
Until the rex gets stuck in the trap.
Then place 1 gate behind the rex don't get to close.
Then shoot rex until it knocks out.
This also works with spino
