Taming & KO Tips

How do I tame a rex? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a rex.
Use a taming raft and go to half burnt (the island next to Lava Island) and lead it into the raft and then u can just stand on the ramp and shoot it with darts or a bow and he will get downed. If you get lucky you can man the raft and be able to take it somewhere safer.

A nice 2x2 dino gate, or 1x1 behemoth gate pin is the best bet for taming safely. Especially if you're attempting to tame in a dangerous area. Also, bring good fliers and a spare crossbow.
Really simple strategy if playing on extinction
1: Tame Tapejara and get a friend
2: Find Rex you want to tame
3: Hover over Rex with Tapejara and make sure you have your friend on tapejara
4: Have friend shoot Rex with tranqs while you fly on tapejara
Enjoy your new Rex!
easiest & cheapest way to tame these guys is to have a pretty tanky mount which you can shoot off the back from. i usually play on max level 300, though, so most creatures are pretty tanky. i use a bary/deinon, since they are fast and you can escape whenever you need to. very easy tame if you know what you’re doing
What I found easy was
Find a high level diplo
Knock it out
Put all stats into health
Find preferred rex
Use diplo as tank
Make sure area is clear before dismounting the diplo
fire away at rex
Admittedly I was using a mastercraft bow
I was a bit lazy tamin one he was running in circles trying to get one of those killer birds and I shot him until he got knocked out😐
Bola tranq feed and saddle for a good game
I was tamping a Rex when a giant came
Defeat it with a bow. Give it some meat.
The 3x smoothing bam works like magic and if don't have enough amber just wait and use bio toxins I have tamed with both ways just the thing you should be worried about is tranc arrows you must have enough of them atleast 30 to 35 since non of us are 100 present accurate all the time.
I am a level 38 and I have tamed a rex level 134 with trap but it's meelee is only 283
If breeding it doesnt take 2 days it can take up to 3 hours at most
I have figured out a new way to tame dinosaurs cut off the dinosaurs meat wise in the area try and keep the dinosaur in the area and send a dodo bird out to attack the tea Rex with bunches of Botox in and it had the tea Rex eat the Botox and it’ll knock it out you go feed it meet make sure you have plenty of Botox in and you’ll have a pet your ex and no I would not recommend trying this whenever your level one side effects may be dead dodo bird hey might find you and run but seriously You better find a good hiding spot
Just saying if u want good guns and crossbows naked run the lava cave, I did it and got a gun that does 413 damage and a crossbow that does 153 damage.
Mine was really easy to tame, I just used a pterosaur to get on a mountain and used 10 tranq arrows and she was out. I only needed 28 raw meat and 1 biotoxin before she was tame. Keep in mind however that I am on mobile so it’s most likely different if you’re on something else.
Use toxican or narcotic arrows and walk back slowly while shooting it then feed it raw prime meat.

Force tame should do the trick
Use 4 metal billboards to block it in as u do a rhino . Place 3 in a square shape with one side missing lure it in the trap and place it behind it then get tranking
