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.

The safest way to trap a rex is to build a 2x2 square STONE foundation, add 4 STONE door frames on each side, and add four ramps to make one big ramp on the side your going to lure the rex into. Then, just have it chase you into the taming pen you've made, and get yourself…

The rex is not especially hard to tame. There is several options in how to do it.

1 stand on a cliff that is higher then the rex an shoot it with tranqs of choice. It will start running when the torpor get high.

2. Use a thyla or wolf or equus or any other fast tame…

Bring extra supplies then what the app says. I noticed sometimes that it’s not accurate. I put 200 tranq arrows into a 145 X-Rex and it didn’t even start fleeing. Sorry Dododex…

Very easy, get 4 stone dino gates, place 3 down (a square with a opening) put a bear trap in the middle of it and then lure the rex into, when the bear trap triggers place the last gate in the opening behind the rex, then shoot at will. This works with many different big…

Here is an easy way to tame a rex. Step 1: find a rex either far away from danger or alone. Eliminate the danger if there is any.

Step 2: Build a 9-10 high stone pillar with ladders to get up (do this a decent distance from the rex.

Step 3: Climb the pillar and pelt the rex…

If your on easy they only take a few 15 tranqs you can easily outrun them. Once tamed their only downside is their stamina

I would recommend trapping it with stone and a 50 should take about 45 tranq darts or 50just to be sure

At level 35 I tamed a level 2 Rex it took about 12 tranq arrows and about 5 prime meat to tame. I was quite shocked to find I didn’t really need any narcotics. Good luck!

feeding the rex berries makes it food goes down faster

Same with all other carnivores in the game

Caught one with a basic stone door frame and stairs trap, only took about 5 tranq darts for a level 10

Just tame a baby rex and get a high level rex when its fully grown up

But where dose the baby rex come from
