Taming & KO Tips

How do I tame a rex? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a rex.
4 Dino gateways and a large bear trap. Got a level 135 down with about 65 tranq darts!
If you are in early to mid game and you want a Rex try to find a decent level one with a baby then kill it. It won’t be as good but it helps a lot.
May I just say if you are on a cliff and see a red shoot it with frank arrows in the head. I’m only level 30 and can’t believe that I have a rex. This red is a beast, he kills like a monster. I would just watch out for Therizinosaur.
The Rex bite force is very high
Petition for a category named rideable without saddle spread across all ark creatures to raise awareness!!!!!!
Always use shocking tranqs cause they maybe do a 1000 torpor if u are high enough level up so everyone doesn’t have make a crap ton ordinary tranqs.
What resources would i need to tame a level 2 rex
Wile taking a Rex just use a trap it’s the most effective.
Hello there,you've probably seen the cliff strategy on here right? Well if you haven't then this is what u do,You go up a cliff that the rex can't climb and shoot it,or use meele weapon if u want,it's gonna be hard with that tho cuz u will get knocked off and forced to run.But yeah,ima just put in smt a little different,or maybe the same idk.
Step 1- Gather meat,make narcotics at mortar and pestel,and get bow or crossbow and make arrows
Step 2-Find T-Rex and cliff (or just lure the rex to a cliff if it's not already near 1)
Step 3-get on the cliff to where it can't reach u or climb up and shoot it till it runs (if it doesn't run then just kill it and find another 1)
Step 4-knock it out with club or hands and then feed it the meat,if u don't have much meat to give it then give the rex the meat and then go get some more meat.
Step 5-wait for the taming process to finish
And then BOOM,you've got urself a Tyrannosaurus Rex! I hope this helps and fun time taming and hunting (the hunting Is for the food for the rex)! Bye!🤩✨️😁👍
1 bring more tranq arrows meat and soothing balm if u cant afford main taming food for this beast
2 Find high terrain that he cant reach you
3 Use recommend using crossbow if u cant afford use Bow if you want to challenge yourself try slingshot with hundreds of rocks
4 if this beast run to you just dont chase be good at aiming until u take em down this is why other players and i recommend using crossbow if you on mid level
5 If you take rex down Read 1st step
be patience until you tamed it
6 goodluck hunting with your new beast
4 wooden dino gates was all i needed for one of these babies. He took my otter i took his freedom
Just get a few of your boys and light that hoe up its not that hard really don't build gates and waste time just tranq that sucka
So you wanna tame a Rex here’s what you need
Couple hundred arrows or darts
Some prime meat
If a high lv then make a simple 3gate trap place the in the form of a triangle with a bear trap at the middle lure it in close it in and tranq it out ezz or just tame a spino
Do basically you can tame it within 20 second just make a trap and trap it after that don't shoot him after traping rex just place bed and sleep after you sleep then shoot him with tranq arrow and when it unconscious you will See it's food is 0 now put couple of meat in it's inventry it will tame within 20-25 sec as per level of rex. I tame 10 level rex in 7 sec
Why do people need taming pens? Just get on a cliff and shoot it with tranq arrows
Easy Rex trap:
Requirements,
1x large bear trap (optional)
4x Dino gateways (stone or higher)
Steps:
Place the first 3 gateways in a U shape with some space between because the Rex is fat.
Then place the bear trap in the middle.
Then find the Rex and lead it through the open part of the U shape.
Once the Rex is in place the last gate (this is much easier with the bear trap but not impossible)
Then happy taming! 👍
If you want to trap other large carnivores this same trap also works. (With gigas use metal instead of stone) 🦖
To tame one make a trap out of wood gates, stone if a higher level, that looks like this (from above) /_\ afterwards, put a large bear trap in the middle. Then, using one last gate, fill in the gap on the top. (Obviously you can rotate the trap making the gap on the bottom or top.) Afterwards just knock it out! Good luck taming! 🦖
On mobile:
30 tranq arrows’ all it took to knock this guy down. (Used crossbow) even less if you aim for the head.
-Have at least 1 or 2 prime meat
(kill a nearby carno/sacro/boa)
-And at least 25 regular meat.
-In like 2 in game days youl have this guy
Sleep and leave this guy alone. He wont be eaten whilst unconscious by anybody.
Ps: Im by no means a pro, I only speak by experience. It’s THAT easy. Maybe theres an easier way but i find this method the easiest.
I just knocked a rex lvl 70 am shivering 😖😖
If on the island, just place a 3x3x3 trap with stone doorframes in a flat area in snow biome. Metal/wood ramps on one side. Pretty much anything will fit except titan. Idk if gigga fits. Place a bed/sleeping bag on the side and u can take anything.
