If you don’t want to go to Carno island to get a Rex from the southern islets, I’ve found some around the river delta in the south east jungle and in the redwoods near the center of the map.
Rex
Player-written tips for taming, using, and fighting the Rex in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
To find it on the island check around carno island. On valguero you can find it on a hill up beach zone 1. On extinction you can find them anywhere in the wasteland. On ragnarock in the desert. On scorched earth around the blue obelisk. Sorry about the listing 😅
On genesis 2, hover above it while shooting tranqs
Found up north near/around the mountains
Just like every carnivore in the game wild rexes will go for the nearest herbivore. So you if you are trying to lure one into a trap it would be best if you pick up a parasaur(or a deer if you're in the Arctic) with your Argentavis. It should help to get it trapped easily.
They are tanky and have high damage but they are slow so fleeing it the best option as long as it isn't a alpha t rex
Is not meant for utility only for bosses and raiding!
If u wanna tame a rex don’t use tranq arrows and a good tip for taking use gate and a bear trap for a ez knock out:)
I‘m level 35 and I tried to tame it for the first time. The Rex was lvl. 11. Unlucky it was near the ocean so he ran into it and disappeared. He was nearly knockouted. I think he died in the ocean. So guys be careful if you’re near water !!
in the night i decided to go harvesting with my moschops it was all calm until i heard stomping coming straight towards me i ran and the light of my torch showed a rex coming out of the darkness me and my moschops ran for our lives thankfully my moschops was perfectly faster…

So if you wish to tame a low level rex on the island you need a health boosted trike. Then you need about like, 20-35 tranq arrows because they have a massive torpidity pool, so then just shoot it's head until it is down, then you need bio toxin or narcrotic (bc the sleep…

YOU CAN OUTRUN REXES WITH BASE MOVEMENT SPEED.
Not to mention how much time the Rex wastes when it roars at you.
So, don't be afraid of this thing! They probably pose less of a threat than Raptors.
You can even tame it with a slingshot!
Idiots idiots idiots you don’t need a trap just need a high-ish rock or something like that and a bow, crossbow, or some other thing that can shoot tranq stuff knock the Rex out feed regular meet or if you have any of the other stuff feed it that you don’t need as much…

Resource intensive but easy and flexible trap to tame any (and many) rex:
1) Get a wooden raft
2) Place stone foundations 3 by 3 to make your raft indestructible by rexes (look up dropped raft foundation on utube to get the 3x3, it takes 10 seconds). You can also use a hatch…

3) Fill in all sides with empty stone doorframes 2 high
4) Add wood ramps up the front of the boat so the rex can walk over to get in
5) Park the boat anywhere near rexes, lure your favorite into the trap and tranq through the open walls from safety, the rex can’t get out
Now you have an easy and mobile rex trap that works for plenty of other dinos too :) I’m not sure if you can drive around with the rex while it’s unconscious, but you can always build a couple spike walls to keep other dinos away. Enjoy my favorite trap in Ark and have fun with free rexes!
Use a fast flyer ( wywren,snow owl,Griffin......) Then go in large circles while every bit stoping, shooting and realising till he's out. Then kill a stego or two to get enough RAW prime
All you need to do is get on a cliff or a high speed place and then you can just shoot it cause a Rex can’t do anything when u r high up it’s not that hard
I would usually build a trap using behemoth gates and than tranq it out with tranquilizer darts or shocking darts
I tamed a 145 male rex and after leveling it up for a week its health was 9k and melee was 967+%(i put like 3 or 2 levels into health only so the melee is very high) REXES ARE GOOD
Pretty simple tame just use your ordinary stone pitfall trap. You’ll need about 75 tranqs for a 150. They don’t take headshots so don’t bother with them. You’ll need rex’s For the boss fights on the island especially.
If you see one of these get a lot of meat get at least a bow guess about what level it would be based on what level most animals are get as many tranq arrows as you can actually you probably won’t need very much unless it’s a really high lvl get narcotics to keep it asleep…
