How ARK players tame and knock out the Rex: what to feed it, what to knock it out with, and how to keep it safe.

How to tame a Rex:

The rex is a large predator, it is moderately fast but is tanky and does some real damage. It is mostly found on non-snow mountains, excluding white sky peak and frozen fang. It spawns after you clear its kins, so you can go around killing low level Rexes…

So my experience with this beast was horrifying but I knocked it out it took so much tranq arrows it took 30 tranq arrows and I ran fast with the Brontos because there were lots of dinos with the brontosaurus then it was attacking the other dinos then I shot it a lot then it…

Lead it a cliff and make the cliff colapse then run!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Four huge metal signs put them into a square and put the fourth one in after the rex is in, it works.

Ride your Iguanodon, use other dinos as bait and just shoot it with tranq arrows, darts etc. Add: you can knock it out while on a cliff or when it is stuck other is using a large beartrap. Always bring your escape dino with you Incase something attacks you.

How to tame: get tranqs and meat and some narcs and bear traps. Spot a Rex. Watch Rex get eaten by spino. Tame spino instead.

To be honest spino is easier. It costs Less narcs meat tranqs and levels for saddle. It is more powerful then a Rex on its hind legs. I don’t want…

Be careful when taming these guys in or around the swap. Leeches, if nearby, can and will attach to them after they're unconscious, and you can't remove them until after the dino is tamed. Beware the leeches.

I found the best way to tame aggressive and more dangerous creatures is to use Tapejara (saddle acquired at level 55). They can land on high and vertical surfaces while still allowing you to shoot. If the tame is not close enough to the ledge, I suggest shooting it or Argo-ing…

Build a pillar out of stone/metal foundations, about 7-8 high and shoot the rex from there. Keeping rex down won't be a problem unless you tame it with fish or just raw meat. Tame it with prime or mutton, and you'll get yourself a nice rex.

Well I don't know if it happen in pc because I am good with mobile control and play ark mobile but for me rex is soo much easier then taming spino you just need a high place where rex can't reach you and hit him with treanq arrow or tranquilizer dert until it got…

You can find these bad boys in the mountains, snowy parts, and in the red woods. Use around 30 tranq arrows/darts to knock them out. Feed them raw prime meat or raw meat if you have the courage to wait and boom got the king of the dinosaurs.

Low levels are easy, get on a high rock and have a bow with tranqs and a spyglass (to watch its torpor) and when it runs away it will be knocked out. (I did this on carnivore island)

Go to a high place shoot it with tranqs and feed it raw prime meat don’t do extra

How to tame rex:

1) Get resources:

.Tranq darts (or tranq arrows, I prefer tranq darts) about 10-20

.Cooked prime meat or just normal prime meat about 20-50 raw meat and 10 prime meat( or cooked) (Normal meat will do)

(Cooked prime meat lasts longer)

To tame a rex at low level need 3 large bear traps place them in line. Agro the rex it will stuck in 1st bear trap then start shooting tranq arrows ....then it will stck in second continue shooting tranq arrows ..pow rex is uncounsious .... but its little risky.😁
