How to take on a Rex 101:
You need:
A Pike
A Spyglass.
Some armor to keep the other predators from killing you first.
How to kill one:
Step one: Look for a Rex
Step two: Run from the Rex. If it doesn't chase after you go to step three,If it does go to step four.
Step three: Wait for it to attack random creatures and follow at a respectable distance. If you come too close to to step four.
Step four: Run from the Rex. Go to step five If you survive.
Step five: check with spyglass to see Rex health.
Repeat process until Rex has less than 100 health left. Go to step six.
Step six: Stroll in toward the Rex and casually stab it twice with a pike.
You've killed a Rex. Hmm? What? You want to tame one? But why??? :)
My first Rex encounter i had made a base in the NE of the Island to mine obsidian. It was 2 stories tall and had no roof. Next thing an Argy came to eat me as I put the roof on. Killed it but barely. Didn’t harvest the corpse so there was a giant dead bird on my roof. I go to get more stuff to fix the damage and come back to a pack of 3 Rexes eating the dead Argy... then they ate me... then they took turns eating my base. Now it’s a 1 story with a ladder to nowhere, and then I ran for my life. Had to re-evaluate my life choices.
