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.

Easy tame.... Just make a 2x3 stone foundation and cover 3 high with doorframes on the sides. And 2 high on either end. Place wooden ramps (They're temporary but easy to make and repair) just get aggro and run inside the trap. Takes about 30-45 tranq arrows from a…

Whether you want to tame or kill this strategy works. You need four people two Tapejares. Two people fly two people get on the back and shoot it. one person circle the Rex and one rests swap out now and then so you can keep you stamina up, or if you feel bold both circle it and…

So I see all these tips on how to tame a Rex. I was able to tame one by standing on a cliff and using about 40 tranquilizer arrows. Once it starts to run away, DO NOT BE AFRAID. Just chase after it and keep shooting it. IT WILL NOT CHASE YOU (at least it never does me). Once it…

If you knock it out build around it, the only 2 places it spawns in have terror birds and dire wolves/sabertooths unless you’re lucky enough to have it wander across ME SWAMP

Tame a tapajara. Sit on back passenger seat ( or grab tribe member ) and just tranq it from the air. But make sure u have a high lvl tapajara with tons of stamina.

It takes more time and resources than Dododex says

The Rex said that the torpor rate I drop is high. I disagree. I have tamed two rexes with raw meat and I did not need to use any extra narcotics or narcoberries. All u need is a bow with around 40 to 50 tranq arrows, and meat of any kind. Find a rock that is high enough for u…

For instant tame you have to just run underneath the rexs and tickle it’s belly no kibble or prime needed

Rexes are scary to tame and hard to tame but it’s worth it 😀

Use a tame that can take a beating, like a thyla, preferably an imprinted one. Then use a really good crossbow, they reload quicker so as your tame takes the beating you don’t have to worry about it being killed as you are pelting the rexy with arrows. Then once it starts…

I got a raft base, tranq the red, fed it, and gave it a ride to my dock

1. Hit it with tranq darts or tranq arrows until it gets too drunk on tranqs and is knocked out.

2. Put lots of raw meat in it's inventory (if you don't have any just find a nearby dino to kill)

3. Remember to feed it narcotics to keep it from waking up while…

Actually I never thought I can find these in the redwoods forest. I'm on mobile so I don't know for PC/Console.

I was out looking for high level rexs on what I like to call the Viking map. When I couldn’t find any good levels I went to the lava island and found a level 150 female Rex. I killed the low level that was with her and started shoting traq darts when she started running I had…

If your taming a Rex then you need 1 pulmonoscorpius kibble and 3x soothing balm it will tame instantly if you are in easy mode

Get a long neck rifle and bullets just in case things go south and bring a crossbow with 50 to 100 tranqs and make a trap with four behemoth gates and shoot it
