Tips & Strategies

What are tips for rex? Tips and strategies for rex in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
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 narcotics and Dododex says btw you only need to feed narcotics once the consciousness is really low so you use less for my level 2 (which I had first thought was 26 bc it looked like the 26 had been in the place the 26 was and I had come for the 26) I only used 1 narcotic and I didn’t even really need to use it it just made me feel better and less nervous when I used it.
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 frame over the rudder to still drive.
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
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 and go tame it don’t kill it unless you already have a Rex!!
I even saw a T. rex that someone tamed who knows how to tame a rex
I don’t if you do let me know my name is kevin the name of the blue sea
Always tame your rexes on the outer parts of Carno Island. Lure one without attracting anything else, then bear trap it, I sent a buttload of tranqs into its face. It can’t run because it’s in the bear trap. (MOBILE) (THE ISLAND MAP)
I find that 3 rexs spawn on Dead island. But do not underestimate them. They will kill you and your bird if you let your guard down. But overall this is a great spawn place!
These things are slow as heck, just run and shoot it and your good. Just make sure you do run into anything that will kill you or your Rex.
How many tranquilizer darts will it take to knock it out
Easy just get the high ground then use around 40 (tranq) arrows or around 18 toxicant arrows then feed it raw or prime meat when its unconscious
I have a pack of Raptors and i killed three of them at once
You need a stone trap make it of foundations , door frames and ramps btw it is better on a raft because you can travel with it
50 toxicant arrows and high ground will knock them out and adding soothing balm and plenty of meat add 10x your taming speed I got an easy tame with a level 7 it’s health was at 450 out of 1100 so to easy in my opinion but cool Dino
