What is a rex used for? rex utility tips and strategies in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
If you are going to go hunting with it, it’s best to just wait until you are on the right level and get enough materials to make a saddle and ride it. If you can’t wait till then, definitely don’t hunt near water or the ocean at least. On my first day of my first Rex, I got carried away, got on my Carno, and started to attack a Brontosaurus. It retreated into the ocean and my Rex chased after it, then a surprisingly big swarm of Megs attacked my Rex and I couldn’t save without getting out alive. It managed to kill a few Megs, but it wasn’t a match for all of them. My point is, if you want your Rex to live, think before you are about to do something with it.
Guys!!!! Don’t compare the Rex and the Spino! Both are good at what they are. Spino is a glass cannon and gets a major buff in water. It has high speed, damage, range and knockback. Use this against small enemies to medium-large enemies to ultra decimate them! Even more when in water!!! It’s damage is what carries it. Rex is a tank that is used against bigger enemies. It has ultra health, high damage (but less than Spino), moderate speed, moderate range and has a ability to stun creatures and make them defecate! Use against small enemies for major advantage, as well as big enemies too! It does good at both tanking and damage, so it’s rounded up unlike the Spino. When comparing each other, none are better than the other. They are both very good at what they do!
