I Just Wanna Say The “Go under it and rub its tummy” does not work on mobile or switch
If you are on The Island you can just grab these with a rynio and trap it easily!!
.stone gateway. Trap shoot with trank.
To tame this guy, there are many ways to knock it out, use a cliff, trap, or on foot if your cool like that. I reccomend a crossbow to knock it out. Once it’s down just stuff it with meat (prime meat is more effective then regular meat and is reletivly simpler to get than kibble). Also make sure to have narcotics or narcoberrys just in case. Once tamed it doesn’t do much, but is extremely good for bosses.
Make sure to starve it down when you knock it out don't just put your food in there wait till it's hungry but after you give it food don't take it out I will lose taming
who agrees this is the iconic tame of the game? like its quite the accomplishment when you do it during mid game but nit really end game.
Just go on top of a cliff or some where it can not get to you then shoot it when it runs jump off of cliff ( or some where high ) with parachute and chase it down while shooting it ( this is what I do for all most every thing
I had a Rex egg I had just bred it put it in the fridge came back the next day it was gone / 11 hours later ooohhh I left it in the wrong fridge
I like to get 4 behemoth gateways and but down 3 in a triangle shape with a large bear trap In the middle, when the Rex runs Into the trap I place the forth gate closing off the trap, I then use a gun with tranq darts (50-100) and knock it out, I found prime meat to be the easiest taming food to give it.
Really easy to tame just take some tranq darts and a tapejara and sit on the side of a cliff and tranq it
These aren’t as hard as people say they are to tame. Get about 30 tranqs, get on a rock, and shoot. Kill a diplodocus, feed the Rex the prime meat, BOOM! You have a Rex tame.
Whenever I see them it's either dead because they attack everything near them and get killed because they pick the wrong opponent or, I kill them because I keep running out of Trang arrows.
Tip for taming: aggro the Rex then make it follow you to a group of herbivores, not quite strong enough to kill it but just enough to keep it distracted, then gust rapid fire with a bow and tranq arrows and kill the herbivores (both for protecting the Rex and for meat) and ta-da! You’ve tamed a Rex, no traps…
I tamed mine when I was looking for a star o in a nearby lake and it scared me, so I led it back to my base walls to tame it. It didn’t attack me because it was too busy nomming on my walls
What arrows or darts should I use and why

I was 80% of taming a good level one and it disappeared what happend!
The Tek Bow is by far the most effective tool to knock out a rex just wait about five seconds between each shot so your not wasting and element shards.
Who knew you could use boomerang to knock out 168 tek rex.hows that make sense ark has gone crazy
The easiest way to kill these buds is to go up onto a mountain (a high one..) with a flying mount, or, find how to get up the mountain. Get out your gun, and start shooting. Takes 3 to 4 hits to kill. If your low leveled and see this... RUN or if u don’t have a gun, RUN
