The Tek Rex is a massive, technologically enhanced carnivore and a variant of the standard Rex. It possesses a powerful roar ability that stuns nearby enemies within a 75-degree cone, making it a dominant force in combat. This dino is primarily tamed for frontline assault roles where its high health and damage output are most effective. It can be airlifted by Tusoteuthis for rapid deployment.
The roar ability has a cooldown lockout mechanic, preventing reuse for 6 minutes after activation, so timing is critical in prolonged engagements.

Taming a Tek Rex requires knockout via sedation. The most effective food is Exceptional Kibble, which provides the fastest taming effectiveness. Raw Mutton also works if kibble is unavailable. Use Tranq Arrows from a Crossbow or Compound Bow for reliable sedation. Immobilize it with a Chain Bola or trap it using a Bear Trap.
The estimated taming takes around 58 minutes using 17 units of Exceptional Kibble with no narcotics required. Use the calculator below for your settings.
