Btw there is no head multiplier, shoot it in the body where you likely won’t miss, and you can get on an elevated platform. Once it starts running shoot very slowly, once every 6 seconds for max efficiency, be extremely cautious. I once tamed a tek stego lvl 162 and I shot it when it was about to fall. I lost 20% taming effectiveness. Also tek Rex’s (and any other tek variants) can be like ten levels higher than normal even on official. Also if you aren’t using prime then that’s a big mistake, make prime your minimum. At least use mostly prime and finish with normal meat.

If you want to tame a Rex you need too have a pteranodon and 100 tranq arrows then fly a bit away and shot
Use only bolas to tame it and you're good to go!

The Rex, despite it’s reputation in media everywhere else is a piece of cake here in Ark. Maybe I might be exaggerating slightly since I got brutally mauled by one trying it on foot, granted I had 477 tranqs in my inventory but oh well. Anyway to tame the Tyrant Lizard King you need: A balm, kibble prime meat or scorpion kibble, Bio-Toxin 4 Stone Gates, 100-ish Tranq arrows, 1-3 Bear Traps, 900 armor at the minimum and an optional fast moving mount. Set up the Gates and Bear Traps in your hot bar, place 3 of the gates in this manner |_| and put the bear traps in it, then lead the rex on foot or with the mount to the trap, once the rex stops moving and starts biting put the gate. Now tranq it, and put the balm and either hunt for prime meat or put kibble, force feed bio toxin in this process. Voila, you now have the second most ferocious carnivore in Ark and the most Famous. Have fun with your new toy. - The Nameless Tuso
It was easier to knock out than I thought
i tame it be cause he stock in two woods so i just simply hit thei with bow and tranq arrow and boom i have a pet rexx😅😅
Hey just now playing people don’t have to use traps you can use cliffs and shoot from there and when he runs chase him And shoot in head with tray arrows and he will fall then kill something like diplo for prime they don’t do damage or kill a bronto with trike
You can find some in open areas in redwood forests and in valleys.
It is easier with Qwetzal but if you do not have one second best option is with large bear traps
Try to stay away from them or they will kill you
I guess you have to wait if you don't have kibble or prime meats. rex is easy to knock out. lol that thicc boi sure needs more raw meats
The same thing is that I have a good day
Once you get good at hunting and killing these guys, that’s how you know when it says “you have entered a dangerous area” what it really means is that something that thinks it’s dangerous is entering your dangerous area

I just noticed that the starve timer of a level 1 is lower than the torpor drain.
Get on top of a tall cliff to tame if you want to kill it use a long neck rifle still on the cliff
i have a rex named rexy, she has 6000 health. Nothing can kill her.
In my opinion, by far the best creature for certain boss fights. Good for the brrodmother, however megatheriums are better. It destroys the megapithecus. The only island boss I would not recommend it strongly is the dragon. For the dragon you want to use therizinos due to the reduced fire damage and use of veggie cakes. It does well against the overseer too.
Crazy stamina drain I had to change the settings because of it
Make sure there are no other predators around. You will need to know this.
