Taming & KO Tips

How do I tame a rex? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a rex.
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.
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.
I just knocked a rex lvl 70 am shivering 😖😖
I tamed a Rex by taking my pteranodon and landing on a rock where the Rex couldn’t reach me and shooting it with tranq arrows until it ran away, then chased it while still shooting it until it fainted. Make sure to take plenty of narcotics to keep it unconscious while taming it though. Up if helpful!

Lol I was trying to tame a level 100 and it got stuck so I hit it with 20 tranq dart and 50 tranq arrows and it did not go down so I used a sling shot that I had laying around and I hit it 50 times and it got knocked out
Rex is an easy tame if you can get a beezlebufo the gaint frog just hit and run with tranqs while on the frog rex will never be able to touch the frog coz you'll be able to jump real far and shoot the tranq when the rex get close jump again to keep distance then shoot the rex to sleep by continuing the process the frog can be used to tame almost any creature whether land or water
Im on mobile,level 59 and have a rex level5 it has 1100 health its color is green its damage is160 percent and tip raw meat helps really good if you don’t have raw prime meat.I knocked it out with 13 tranq arrows red woods.
130 X-Rex took me 242 Arrows with a basic xbow.... then i resorted to punching it unconscious.... 3x what dodo says to bring.
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
Shoot them while they attack a diplo. They will stay distracted as the diplo plays with it without harming it!
They are actually really easy tames People are always like oh build a trap oh du du du du NO all you need it’s a Tanky parasur and some tranq arowws there then just wait 2 seconds before shooting again
I tried the triangle formation of metal dino gates as per one of the top tips but that didn't work. What did work for me was a four wall box of stone behemoth gates and then kiting the rex into there with a flyer and then closing the rex inside. Make sure you placed the gate box near a high boulder so that you can land there and tranq the rex from above.
Punch with Fists and feed it raw meat, easy tame. (may include Head being torn off)
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) 🦖
Get a friend with a flyer to pick you up, then fly over the rex and tranq it
Many of the people here are saying to just go and shoot them. Just do it. I would agree. When if tamed mine I was scared that it was to fast, but you can easily beat it while sprinting. shoot it, run away, repeat. easy. Tranq arrows will work fine just bring enough. And be prepared to make more just incase.

This guy is annoying for me because whenever I try to knock him out he always goes into the water😞😞😞
