What are tips for rex? Tips and strategies for rex in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
The best way to kill a Rex is if you have a bow and arrow and enough arrows house and you get up on a high rock you can kill one of these things with ease trust me I’ve done it
Why are they everywhere on the CENTER MAP! Seriously they’re everywhere!
go to carnivore island there are some of them
it took very long to tame it but it was worth it:
u need:
1-3 beartraps (it's possible he doesn't get in one)
much tranq arrows(i didn't count them but it took long)
some meat (i always carry 30 with me to tame a carnivore just to be prepared)
i found two in the southeast on the coast near herbivore island. i placed the beartrap and shot him with tranq arrows then i ran to the beartrap and he got caught i kept shooting him and when he was sleeping i tamed him with the meat
i did this again with the other one
up for prince and princess
I recently tamed a Rex and it was not that hard at all. So if the Rex u are looking for is level 1-15, Then you only need like 30 tranquil arrows. Just find a hill bigger than the Rex and can’t be climed by one, Then get its attention and start shooting. Just don’t let anything eat it when it gets knocked.
If you sink a ton of tranqs into it and it runs away and suddenly turns on you, its not trying to eat you. Their AI isnt the best and they get stuck on everything. They are just struggling on a nonexistant wall and are taking the long way around. Continue tranqing.
The Rex are very slow . Put a stone gates around him while he is stuck and use a bear trap then put the x3-x4 stone gates then tranq him out . Make sure you clear the area before setting the bear traps others creature can spring it and u would be left with using your self or a tanky dino for a distraction
This is for new players:apparently base player speed is enough to outrun a wild one,but as a general tip,make sure to level mobement speed and stamina,will always come in handy!
Honestly, these are really easy to tame.
Get 100 tranqs, 60-80 narcs, (i reccomend 80 just to be safe) And 100+ fish meat.
Get 1 stone base, 2 tall stone walls (or metal), and 6 stone ceilings (To have space to land a flyer).
Make sure the walls are on only 1 side, so it should be 8 single walls tall. Or you can use a Tapejara.
Pick a flyer with a decent amount of health, just incase something goes wrong. I recommend a high-level Argie.
Build it by a Rex, Land and shoot. Chase it when it starts running away.
After its knocked out, you can put you flyer on Neutral, so it can distract anything.
Rexes eat fish meat quicker, so use that. Monitor the Rex's Torpor levels, and feed it narcs.
Now you have a Rex! Now you can get another one so they can breed, and now you have a Rex army.
It can be found in the winter biome and the redwood and the scorched earth ark kind I’m not sure if it’s in the scorched earth biome because I don’t have the rare ark kind I’m only on a tablet
One of the best Dinos for base defense, meat runs and guarding your team in general. We have two in our tribe, within the first few hours our female laid 5 eggs. One is level 86 and the other 161, never have had to worry about them in battle, they've held their own against alphas, packs of the overrated Allos and many other Dinos that some may consider troublesome.
Best tame, once you get the ability to make a saddle, go an tame one be be prepared to be on the move constantly cause they cover a lot of ground.
Also avoid water combat unless you're in shallow water. I plan on taming a 3rd, They're the best in my opinion. If you can't tame a giga, the next best land carnivore is the Rex, hands down.

U can knock it out with a primitive crossbow u just need a high ground or a dino with a lot of healt atleast 1 and half k and u shall be good
One day, back in 2016, I was living in a thatch hut on the black sands on the island. I heard a noise outside, and I saw a Rex fighting a Bronto. The Bronto died, the Rex victorious. Then it turned to me. It lumbered towards me while I was trying to close the door. The Rex started biting at my hut for around ten seconds, while I was crouched in a corner, waiting for my fate to be sealed. Then, as soon as it started, the Rex saw something else and went after it. I left the encounter unscathed, and my hut was also suffered minor damage.
Taming one of these is actually pretty easy. All you need to do is find one, get to high ground or you could be on tape or a quetzal platform saddle ( make sure they are on follow). Shoot it in the face, that is most recommended, kill all other dangerous creatures in the areas harvest them and most of them should give you prime. Then feed prime and you have a new Rex! Good luck.!
In modded U can craft 50x trank get a long neck (good one) and just shoot
Recently tamed two Rexes at the same time. Here’s a few tips to make sure if you’re trying to tame these boss killing beasts with best results:
1.Make sure you bring the proper weapons and enough tranq arrows/darts and narcotics to make sure you can successfully subdue your target
2. Given your surroundings are accommodating, find a higher elevation where it, or they in my case, cannot reach you
3.If you don’t have a high enough elevation where they can’t reach you, either build a trap like you would for a Giga, or build a 3x3 stone foundation with stone doorframes stacked three high as well as 9 ramps with enough space to be able to quickly shoot your chosen Rex unconscious (you can find the video to build the trap on YouTube created by MissVadams it’s titled Rex Taming: Beginners guide)
3.Once you have the proper placement for everything, use a flyer to aggro your chosen Rex and have it chase you to your desired location, then you can light it up with tranqs and knock it out
4. Traps/higher ground did the job to help capture it? Excellent!!! Now start the taming process by feeding it
