Taming & KO Tips

How do I tame a rex? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a rex.
My brother and i tried to knock a lvl 15 male out with tranq arrows on a crossbow. We had 17 and didnt take it, we set up mortar and pestles to make narcotics and tranqs but that also failed. Eventually we used wooden clubs and were still trying to ko it. 😅
Jump on a rock and knock it out with a slingshot and have meat ready.
An easy way to tame a red is have a tribe member pick you up on a flyer or you can use a wyvern/quetzal to stand on their back while taming (have them on follow so they don't try to land another way is to have a strong creature with lots of health while sitting on it fire arrows/tranq darts at it I myself use the stand on a ledge and hope it doesn't come up method because that's quite easy single player p.s it didn't work last time
Just beat it with a club and it works every time they said.
Build a stone foundation with 3 stone walls and one stone doorway, put the stone door in with 4 stone doorways above and a ceiling on top, lead it over jump in and tranq it, happy tamimg
Build a 3x3 STONE building, lure it at it with u in it. Close all windows and when u can see it’s head peeking at u, nail it with ur club. It might take a ton of clubs and time but it’s faster than collecting all those narco berries. *if u use fists it’ll kill it
So I've been PRIMING alot lately and this first time I Perfect Prime a 150 Rex, Dodex said that it would gain 54 levels but instead came out 205 meaning it was 55 levels not 54.?
If theirs no other aggressive creatures around u just run around him and shoot him cuz this thing is slow as fu in the wild
Just shoot them like naa T-rex you suck balls
Lol
Reptar is the best name especially if you get a green mutated one -Kon
Stand on the back of a quetzal then shoot it with frank darts ( even better when it's preoccupied)
Get a taming boat, park it offshore. Then get your argen bird and kite it to the boat.
All you need to farm high level Rex's is to build a raft with two dinosaur gates on each side, build a platform over the box to stand. And then it's just a matter of time to find and lead a Rex in, close the door behind it and then tranq it
Get up high so it gets stuck on a hill and be expectant to die or uses a tranqs.
When raising full three fridges entirely of meat, or more ;)
Be careful I tried knocking on out and let's say it didn't go to plan

Guys don't be so scared, if u have flak these guys are hardly anything, just run at it with tranqs(unless level 50+) then try something else like a galli or tapejara with a tribe mate
They are pretty slow, I've tamed two at a low level on SE and the Island. Find a steep cliff or a high rock, and shoot the shite out of it. They won't go around in circles they'll just put their head in the rock until they turn and run off because of the torpor. Keep shooting until it's down and you are good. Make sure you check if there are any other enemies nearby. That easy, no traps, no building, just a steep rock.
Update 757 patched xbox one patch, made rexs not able to fit throu stone dino gates anymore. Just so everyone knows
