Baby rex’s are so cute. if your breed them have a lot of campfires and wood or thatch. my Rex wants walk every time for the imprinting thing. Already so big soon she’ll be as big as her mother and father.

Yo, I tamed a rex by hopping on a tall rock, shooting it up with tranq arrows and feeding it regular meat

I have 2 rexs named stomp and chomp and used jerky and it tamed really fast

These guys are honestly super easy if you have an Argy with decent stam. Just pick up a Parasaur of something likewise an carry it to get the Rex’s attention to follow you into a trap.

if you’re staying on old ark mobile instead of the new one , make sure you don’t leave it when you’re taming , they keep dissapearing mid tame on me if i don’t stand and watch

I tame one at lvl 50 and it was lvl 80…….

Took me three hours to tame

If you want one look in the mountains or snow and once tamed put it in a cry pod and take it back to bace

Tame one they said it'll be easy they said tries to take

what I hate you guys

For some strange reason the pachyrhinosaurus puff has no effect on it when Koed

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.

KOing one and taming isn’t a problem it’s just most of the time where ever you knock out a Rex there will most likely be other predators around that can kill it while unconscious, I would clear out the area or lure it into a different spot if you can see other animals that might interfere with taming.

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.

The boxing method mentioned by others is very useful! I trapped a level 92 Rex in the box and it took under 20 tranq darts with the basic longneck rifle to knock it out (most were body shots before I started aiming for the head, I’m not sure if headshots increase torpor quicker). I killed some baby dinos beforehand and had my hyeanadon hold the prime meat in the craftable meat punch saddle. The tame bar goes up by over 20 percent for prime meat each time it eats, and 9 percent if it eats raw meat. The guide says the Rex’s TORPOR reduces quickly, but it DOES NOT. I did not need to put any narcotics into the Rex throughout the entire taming process. Have fun, you got this!

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

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.

When taming, turn off ark music and play reality check through the skull. Trust me, it works.

Hover just above it with a Quetz then just hop off, stand on the Quetzs' back and tranq it! SIMPLE! Happy taming!

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
