For some strange reason the pachyrhinosaurus puff has no effect on it when Koed
on mobile i shot one with about 10tranqs before running out, then i had to use a slingshot, which broke multiple times until i couldn't repair it, then i jumped down n used a club which broke n i couldn't repair it either so i finally punched it unconcious before stuffing some prime meat into it right before my ipad (and i) died when i had battery again, i died again (luckily i had a bed next to there) then i ran over and luckily it was tamed, then my battery died again.
I had a level 8 Rex and it took 18 arrows to take it down and it only needed 2 narcotics it takes a while to take but the trex is worth the struggle.
You can pretty easily kill any lvl of t-rex just by stegosaurus, when riding it because stego got knockback that high that he is not gonna give rex any chance to hit.
Okay so people are saying to use platform saddles which yes is not bad it’s just work to get a quetzal, if you have 2 people all you have to do is build 3 stone Dino gates in an unfinished square away from the Rex, then get the Rex to aggro on you and lead it in and go through the middle square (you can use large bear traps but I never use them) and then while the Rex is still aggro at you the second person needs to come behind and place the last gate.
If you see it when you spawn leg it
I remember on an official pvp server me and my tribe mate were chilin with our sinos on lost island and a lv 180 black female rex with blue underbelly and red pattern attacked us. Lost out carno pair and a couple of raptors, but eh it was worth it. We named her glitch. :) also for details on how we tamed it we air striked it with out sinos with tranq darts

It’s the easiest thing on earth to tame anything on scorched earth just get any kind of flier and land on a rock near it and start shooting.🦖🪨🔫👍
So I had decided to move my main base from a really nice area to living in a snowy mountain, and just tamed my first ever Rex (WOOOOOO) and since I’m lazy and the only two ways down aren’t too big well one is a death mission for a pack of wolves, I literally just get to my artifact of the immune farm (I don’t feel like running caves) and I get an artifact of immune and get to my base which is at the blue obelisk and I go to the obelisk and save make a save if I don’t get the potent powder I just restore my save and I keep going until either A I get an eerie pistol (WHY SO RARE) or B I get potent powder which is much more likely and once I get the powder I put it into the inventory of my Rex and I start increasing his levels and put it into health until it reaches 10k-20k and then put the rest into strength so that when it’s maxed out it’s the most feared thing in the whole multi verse.
They spawn in the redwoods mountain biome, and the snowy mountain biome, and carnivore island. Basically they really like mountains.
Get on the back of an argy and shoot it down. Then circle it (dont be near it as nothing will attack it, it will attack you and hurt it) , then wait for it to tame. I hope you found this helpful!
I got one yesterday they are amazing they are slow but really strong high damage good health and are a really good option for boss fights hardest part of taming them is finding them since they are rare and spawn on mountains the redwoods and the snow biome on the island map pls like this or a Rex will spawn at your base
Big boy like meat big and strong
Very easy to knock out because they are slower than a lvl 1 character so every so often turn around to shoot it until it starts to run
If your trying to get the rex in a trap but it keeps agroing on everything else then use an argy to pick up the creature (if possible) that the rex agros on and guide into towards your trap and drop the creature in the trap.
TBH you don’t need to use a 3x3 foundation trap if you are short on resources. 2x2 is enough and 2 or 3 door frames high but it has an occasional chance that it will glitch out but ONLY if something that appeals to it or you gets close it but rarely. Use kibble for high leveled ones along with a soothing balm to get an op one.
After me and my friend had just escaped valgero (Ben wiped 3 times). We go to rag and we are starting our with our thatch base and we hear a roar and the base disappears and we see three level 150 one of them tek and I went back to the island
I don't know what patch they released this on, but the Rex now does 15% more damage to herbivores than carnivores. Like so everyone can use as much exp as they need on melee :)
