What are tips for rex? Tips and strategies for rex in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Try to make it stuck, i went on a hill that it couldn't get up and shot it with darts from the top of the hill and it was simple enough to tame all I used was raw prime meat and it takes in under an hour with no boosts or anything
I suggest when taming a Rex (especially if you have god mode) to get as much prime as possible and find a Rex lower lvl 5 and tame it because I did that less than 15 mins ago and my Rex is already up and at my base.
If your trying to track 150s in bulk to setup a breeding operation, I recommend taking a high level argy to carno island, keep flying in in circles killing everything to get rex spawns. In about 4 hours I had 4 150s tranqed.. If your lucky there is some open space to build a rex trap. GL!
I just ran in circles while my team was on the roof of our base shooting
A Rex would be a really easy as long as you have a enhanced bow apprentice or up you could run while time to time shooting I m telling this to you because it worked for me at lvl 40 no prob Rex lvl 75 (same thing for taming) try it out (yes I couldn’t ride it big sad)
just ride galimimus and shoot em. and dont let raptors kill it like i did…
If you are Playing with friends, Get out Anything You can think of that is strong enough to tame a T. rex. But however you have to circle cause the T. rex will be distracted and while the people attack it. But I’m order to do that you still need to find a way to get on The T. rex. Then he can’t attack you. Then when you tame it make sure to give it levels to kill all the dinosaurs harder than the meteorite!
In mobile, if you are riding a time it doesn’t attack you, so you can chill with your Therizinosaur, aimlessly fly around with your Argentavis, or go on a killing spree with your Giga.
I have already told you how to tame them but here is one more thing:if you are trying to knock them out with the longneck rifle you’ll need about 200 tranq darts.(But don’t forget the backup darts incase you miss.
To tame these guys I prefer to use traps.You can build one easily if you have the items.You can use stone dinosaur gates an large beartraps to trap them.You can find tutorials on the internet.To knock them out you’ll beed a compound bow,a crossbow or a longneck rifle.(I prefer the longneck because of its not so high level engram)use tranq darts with the rifle,tranq arrows with the bows.
Trapping a Rex is easier to tranq and tame but if you have high ground or something so it can’t reach you that’s better
What i did is i just shot at it while also leading it to harmless harbivors for the rex to fight so that i can shoot at it while it is distracted
Just go to the green thing in the sky and that is a great place for beginners to catch rexes just bring a large bear trap, 20 tranqs, 40 meat and then set a trap at the base of a tall rock then lead a Rex over and you should have one in no time
Wild hyaenodons will attack an unconscious Rex. Clear them out beforehand. Just had a wild unconscious max level Rex get killed by a pack.
Being at least 8 large bear traps and just shoot the damn thing till it falls
If you are not picky try getting a low level one because i knoched a level 2 in a couple of shots and took only like 5 mins to tame
Rex's are strong they go raaaar
Even early game they're not too hard to tame. Get yourself an Iguanodon and put it on all fours, then it will never run out of stamina. Run back and forth shooting the Rex it will never catch you. Just got one with tranq arrows and a bow, but you could do the same with stone arrows if you wanted to kill it.
I have found that using 4 Metal Billboards works relatively well, adding a bear trap (like giga traps) works even better
if you know what you're doing, taming a rex doesn't require a trap. i recommend taming one as soon as you unlock tranq arrows--shoot from a cliff or ledge if you can, but if you have stamina you can just run and shoot. the saddle doesn't unlock until late game, but you'll have a powerful bodyguard until then. if you're hunting with your rex, it'll level up, and by the time you DO get the saddle, it'll be shredded 🔥
