How do I tame a rex? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a rex.
Headshots dont count so just try for body shots.
For solo tame, make a trap boat that is two walls high and a second boat with a tower. Lure it in on foot if you have beds on the tower raft. Lure by bird is easier. Knock it out, move it away from shore and safely tame.
Bring extra and be prepared tbh I just tamed a 150 Rex and even though it says on thing on here it's recommended but I spent more than 4 hours starving time for this Rex always be propared and efficient
Easiest way we found to knock it out is to use either your best crossbow with tranq arrows or longneck Rifle with tranq darts, having one of your tribe mates carry you on a Ptera or argy. The key here is to always be aiming in the same direction as the person on the bird when shooting, otherwise you may end up shooting the carrying bird with the tranq arrows or darts. This method allows you to get a better vantage and more head shots which are more effective in knocking the animal out.
Thank to everyone for helping the old and new community of ark
Honestly quite an easy tame.Just trap it at the bottom of a cliff and load it with tranqs
Bros instead of using kibble use raw meat if you want to tame when you are in low level use a smoothing balm and meat with a simple trap
what u do is build a trap u can search traps in google or youtube get alot of traq arrows and narcotics ALOT OF THEM bring prime meat when tamed get the saddle at level 74 i think or 71 tip for mobile players
How to tame a rex without (you might die) dying!
Make sure to have what you’re taming with like a longneck and tranq darts. Have a crossbow and a grapple. Maybe a flyer. Grapple onto the Rex’s back and make sure you’re all the way on there cause rex might go munch. Shoot the longneck with the tranq darts while grappled onto its back (THE LINE MUST BE VERY TIGHT SO YOU DONT ACCIDENTALLY GET BIT). Once the rex wants to run away you’ll lose the grapple on its back and you can just chase it around without having to worry about getting munched today!
You are faster if you are running you dont have to craft a iron bola just run away shoot it with narcosearrows .you only need 23 arrows its soo easy
Ok you might not believe me but ask Jaidon if you know him. I knocked a Rex with a slingshot P.S winter I want to find you again

Why are you all using traps I tame them all the time, I never have a problem, hit-and-run or High Ground baby!
Tamed a max level tek Rex with tranq arrows and a griffin
So just get a griffin lol
How to tame in PvE:
1. Randomly come across a stego stuck in someone elses trap (AI must have wandered it in becoz owner of trap was offline)
2. Watch as moron Rex aggros onto trapped stego and falls into trap itself.
3. Be lucky enough to have tranq darts, narcotics, an empty cryopod on hand and an Ovis grazing nearby.
4. Knockout moron Rex.
5. Murder peaceful Ovis.
6. Stuff moron Rex full of the good stuff.
7. Wait for tame.
8. Cryo that beast and yeet yourself out of there before owner of trap returns to complain about how you owe him a free Rex.
How to tame.
Step 1-make a line of 16 to 20 giant bear traps where you want to tame your Rex.
Step 2-Agro a Rex and get it to step on the first bear trap.
Step 3-shoot with tranqs until knocked out(I suggest a longneck rifle and a lot of tranq darts).
Step 4 -put 20-30 prime meat into its inventory.
Step 5-enjoy your new Rex.
So i found i high level rex near a cliff i want a rex! But i want an allosaur more but all the high levels keep getting killed but when i keep hitting the rex it keeps ignoring me! I have an ascendant crossbow with tranqs prime meat an argentavis and a soothing balm and the rex went into the swamp and got killed by a paracer…… WHY DOES THE OVERSEER/GULA BEETLE HATE ME??!?!?! AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH
Easy tame just bola and slingshot
So for a lvl 20 of these bad boys, it says that I need 16 tranq darts, that’s a lie, I had a 20 of em and not on missed, but yet the Rex still didn’t go down.
WTF?!? Up vote so others can see 🙂
The Tek Rex uses the same kibble as the regular one does.
Kinda confused, so I was going to try and tame a lvl three Rex on scorched earth and I was like I should probably bring like a lot of tranq arrows. I hit the Rex three or four time and it was down btw I used crossbow
