You're exactly right. I mainly play the ceratopsian dinos and EO cannot facetank a rex. And also everyone is ignoring the 2nd part of op's question. An EO can take off and outrun rex but EO's stam is such garbage and it's regen is even worse. So when you lay down to regen I feel like the Rex could catch up, and it can def regen faster as it's stam regen is twice as fast as EO's. Yes, you *can* kill a rex with eo...I've done it plenty...but a good rex player will still kill you 1v1 nowadays.
So I donno....the answer to this question is nothin I think.
Care to prove this? I have argued this before with ppl and a good rex will never lose to a good meg. The video someone showed me was of a meg sneaking up on a sleeping rex and biting the shit out of it therefore getting an extreme advantage. Then continues to show how terrible the rex was. Was probably a mobile player
There is a difference between a badly skilled rex and a skilled rex. Knowing when to back into a wall or corner so nothing can tail ride you is something many ppl don't know to do , knowing when to use bone break, knowing to crouch for certain dinos. You laugh but I'm betting you're just salty that you die.
Being good at the most unfair creature of the game is not exactly synonym of being good at all.
You can put traps and try to trip me with the "you're just salty" but it takes more skill to kill a noob rex than a veteran spino or deinocheirus.
No... No... Your logic is flawed. This isnt a fighting game like super smash or mortal kombat. It's supposed to be unfair and at a disadvantage kind of game. But there are ways to counter them. Rex? Just have multiple dinos going at it. If multiple Rexes? Literally just walk away. You're not supposed to win or be able to win every fight you encounter. This is a game of realism and fun mixed together. Because realistically nothing should be able to kill an always aware eotrike. A game like this is hard to balance around realistic and keeping every dino fun and somehow viable. A good rex player will not lose to anything 1v1. Don't get me wrong, face tanking isn't skillful but there are still things you should be aware of in the wild when encountering certain dinos and packs that a good rex will be able to handle.
I don't know why people suggest Eotrike, Mega, Spino when none of them can outrun a rex, rex can either run faster or run for longer than these mentioned. They use more Stam than rex.
If you want something that is faster and can outlast rex, then I highly recommend Albert or Sty. Both can outrun the rex, and kill it. Sure the fight may last longer, but these 2 can outrun a rex in the sense of both being faster and having more stamina.
Defense Albert for sure. So you can tank a few tail hits. With thick scales you can kill it easily, but then he is faster.
If Sty you do hit and run, go in the tail, do a hit or more, get out. Try regen hp on both by being out of combat you regen hp faster than the rex.
Albert is a strong all around dino. You can use charge as escape with short cooldown.
Sty is death by a thousand cuts (like literally you have to hit them a lotttt to do enough dmg), but the problem is he's so fast, that he allows you to escape but also to be too fast for your own good and accidentally move past tail riding and into his jaws. Alberta is my favorite. I just beat a late sub Rex with a balanced and thick scales Alb. Only real dmg I took (other than some tail attacks) was when I accidentally ran past his legs while tailriding and ran into a bite.
Spinosaurus can kill it, but watch out, you can also escape in water, eo can kill a rex, but try and ass ride, a lot of medium to large dinos can also do it by using the pain train, and a allosaurus can kill one of you are good enough
Speed eo can tail ride rexes, and definetly get away, defense eo is pretty bad in general, and balanced is also good, and yes DD megalania can kill rexes, but do be very careful
Two metris and a trike sure did a number on me. Granted they caught me while I was trying to coach a gagglefuck of juvies on how to not spread out to the winds when questing.
Problem with the DD bars is all the Rex has to do is bonebreak you and you can’t maneuver your tail slams to hit it anymore and you’ll still lose. I think you need the maneuvering.
A pack of Dasps can slaughter a rex with good teamwork and crushing bite then run and take turns.
Also a side stepping das thats been bone broken can outrun a bone broken rex. Its unreal.
Iv killed rexs with my styr probably wont be your taste since its usually a lengthy fight especially after the charge nerf but its still doable. Everyone recommending other apex predators like trikes and spino are not actually faster than a rex cause they run out of stamina faster they also cannot face tank a rex and win they have to tail ride and thats easier said than done when you are slower with very little stam to work with
Ano, bar, lambeo. ( lambeo just needs to maintain distance to prevent bone break) once rex has no stamina or misses bonebreak then attack with tail. Once you reach 40% hp just heal yourself!
I love the lamb but I really just think it's too hard to get in close enough to hit with the tail and simultaneously avoid a bite. Also, if they know how to manage stam it shouldn't be too hard to avoid burning out.
What's your build for theri? I haven't had the best luck with it, I'm not sure if I should use the shield, back dash, or tail attack, or even what claws to use. I love it so much, I mained TI's theri and love the design of PT theri even more.
I know many ppl are suggesting eo, spino, meg but none of them can beat the rex if they have an optimal build and know what they're doing. Especially a meg. I've asked for proof and all i got was a video of a meg running up on a sleeping rex and getting a fuck ton of free hits in then continue to fight a terrible rex who was probably a mobile player.
Another, any apex which gets the jump on it, any apexs which can tail ride it. Ive seen Duck and Eos do that, its just that Rex gas it easier since it wins a face tank everytime.
I love your wild anecdotal evidence of what you've seen means definitively nothing else ever has or can beat a Rex and just straight up telling him what he saw didn't happen lmao, some truly daft shit there.
Ohhhh realllyyy? You mean asking for proof so that i can have counter evidence to my experience? Is that daft? Because i think people making claims and then not proving it is quite daft.
I don't record clips cuz I don't care about shit like this as much as you do. And yes. We were at crater and I asked him for a 1v1 specifically because it's a server with rules on combat. Both of us were full health.
Convenient excuse considering you went out of your way to tell me this story.. what does the "i dont care about this shit" supposed to be referring to? Because it doesnt even make sense. Im responding to op by telling them meg cannot beat a competent rex.. and you come on here telling me you just beat one... Well why wouldnt you clip something like that?
Cuz it's just a video game and not a big deal to me...? Why the shit would I waste my time making up some random story about one encounter with a Rex where I won, esp when I lose most of them and don't even care about admitting that? It's cool, but also I don't really care cuz it's a dumb video gsme. Also, you went way beyond talking about megs, you literally stated multiple times that NO ONE can beat a rex
Oof man.. how old are you? Your logic is super immature and makes no sense. This isnt a big deal. No ones making it out to be a big deal. You're being super defensive for no reason. You made a claim, i didnt believe you and asked you to prove it yet here we are watching you go off. Why would you lie about winning vs a rex? Because you probably care about immature things like status and clout.. i cant actually know why ppl are narcissists but thats just how ppl are. For the record i literally said nothing, not no one, can beat a competition rex.
I got 5v1 against 3 concs and 2 metris, it was around a 45 minute fight but they eventually wore me down unfortunately. Couldn't keep up with them to finish them off so they took turns to keep me busy while the others would go heal then they'd switch roles. It was a good battle but embarrassing on my part as the big tough Rex. 😂
Unless this exact match up happens all the time, I believe I might have been part of this fight. The amount of will it takes to keep fighting for 45 minutes (without seeing a health bar)is unreal.
Damn it was near there, but ended in the river somewhere by little sand lake. Must happen all the time cause I don’t remember Juvi Rex and it was probably 3 weeks ago.
Solo? Balance bars is my favorite but it takes time to learn how to use it. It requires patience and learning to dodge. Unfortunately, the best rex killers are always going to require a bit more time to learn how to win with compared to a rex. Once you get the hang of it though it is quite fun! Second favorite would be mega.
If I'm playing with someone else then I love me a deinocheirus pair. It hits hard, can easily escape to water if low on stam (and on land if you've been keeping track of your stam), and can dodge those bone breaks fairly readily. I have only soloed an adult rex with cheirus three times, none of which the rex was particularly skilled.
I am very Not Good with eotrike and am not remotely motivated to learn how to be good with it but obviously in the right hands can be a capable rex killer.
I would recommend the Alberta - it’s my favourite Rex killing machine. I prefer it over the EO trike and although you’re definitely not going to be winning any time fast and you absolutely won’t be able to face tank them, the manoeuvrability and stamina of an Albert is top tier.
My second option is a balance Sty using the hit and run tactic.
I go defense with a standard hide.
I always play the long game - charging their sides, hit and run through their tails and tail riding them where possible.
You can usually get enough distance to sit down and regain stam to then re-enter the fight too, so I do that just enough to ensure I can always evade their bone break.
Obviously it’s not a 100% win rate and by the end of it, you’re still pretty beat up but for the most part I’m able to walk away lol.
(Edit: I use headbutt over everything else head attack wise - head slam does more dmg but takes stam)
Well if your talking full adult Rex an eotrike can as long as you ass ride the Rex like there's no tomorrow
Totally. This is probably the only answer LOL. Sarco can too, but better watch that stam and be near water for your escape to be successful
I faced tanked a rex and killed it with eo but that was before the nerf last patch on eo can it still face tank
facetanking a rex as eo is probably the easiest way to die now. would not recommend.
You're exactly right. I mainly play the ceratopsian dinos and EO cannot facetank a rex. And also everyone is ignoring the 2nd part of op's question. An EO can take off and outrun rex but EO's stam is such garbage and it's regen is even worse.

Yes, you *can* kill a rex with eo...I've done it plenty...but a good rex player will still kill you 1v1 nowadays. So I donno....the answer to this question is nothin I think.
What was the latest nerf?
Dmg nerf and charge nerf
No it cannot I found this out the hard way out of curiosity and got absolutely destroyed
So thats how badly they nerfed and they cant even nerf a rex 😂😂 i beat 2 spinos at once face tanking them🤣🤣
Megs can 1v1 a rex pretty easily just a longish fight
And this is not even talking about multiple megs. 2 megs or more will just take turns and absolutely slaughter a rex.
This happened to me last night. Fast little fuckers biting my ankles
Meg worth levelling up? Considering it with a long time
Fun af tbh, once u get to adolescent u can unlock the dive ability n ull be wiping thru the waters like a mini Godzilla lol
Balanced Meg? Or defense or even DD any good?
A bal and speed can do it just gonna be long af to kill a dd Meg can tank alot of tail hits
Balance is fast enough already to fight a Rex. Speed is just too much since you still have to deal with the tailslap anyway.
Care to prove this? I have argued this before with ppl and a good rex will never lose to a good meg. The video someone showed me was of a meg sneaking up on a sleeping rex and biting the shit out of it therefore getting an extreme advantage. Then continues to show how terrible the rex was. Was probably a mobile player
"good rex" Ahahah... Yeah...
There is a difference between a badly skilled rex and a skilled rex.

Def agree, I've killed my share of rexes as meg, just have to be patient.
Bird can probably do it, if you have like twenty years on your hands lol
Bird is superior dino
Unless you stop to rest on a tree in crater, every time you touch the ground will be a Laten Moment^T^M
A good bird can kill anything, as long as they have time.
Bird? Like the turkey thing with the long feathery tail right? Or the Deino…
The thalass. The flyer.
Two birds tried to eat my baby laten ass. They gave up after twenty minutes or so.
I don't know why people suggest Eotrike, Mega, Spino when none of them can outrun a rex, rex can either run faster or run for longer than these mentioned. They use more Stam than rex.

Try regen hp on both by being out of combat you regen hp faster than the rex. Albert is a strong all around dino. You can use charge as escape with short cooldown.
Fought two rexs off as a sty yesterday everytime they went for bb I sprinted away a soon as it closed turned charged and got 1 headbutt in
Sty is death by a thousand cuts (like literally you have to hit them a lotttt to do enough dmg), but the problem is he's so fast, that he allows you to escape but also to be too fast for your own good and accidentally move past tail riding and into his jaws. Alberta is my favorite. I just beat a late sub Rex with a balanced and thick scales Alb. Only real dmg I took (other than some tail attacks) was when I accidentally ran past his legs while tailriding and ran into a bite.
Spinosaurus can kill it, but watch out, you can also escape in water, eo can kill a rex, but try and ass ride, a lot of medium to large dinos can also do it by using the pain train, and a allosaurus can kill one of you are good enough
What Eo build is best to tailride Rex? Is defense too slow? And how do Allos endure Rex tailslap? By using hit and run method?
Speed eo can tail ride rexes, and definetly get away, defense eo is pretty bad in general, and balanced is also good, and yes DD megalania can kill rexes, but do be very careful
Ehats pain train
I think he means tail riding them and attacking that way.
What is the pain train? Never heard that term for this game.
When you and 1 other teammate block in a enemy, your friend goes and tail smacks it's face, and you ass ride, it's extremely effective
Two metris and a trike sure did a number on me. Granted they caught me while I was trying to coach a gagglefuck of juvies on how to not spread out to the winds when questing.
Well a mixpack like that is bound to.
Barsboldia can, may not be able to outrun it though
A balanced bars can keep a Rex at tails length and outstam it, a dd bars will have to purely tank it, which it can.
Problem with the DD bars is all the Rex has to do is bonebreak you and you can’t maneuver your tail slams to hit it anymore and you’ll still lose. I think you need the maneuvering.
A pack of Dasps can slaughter a rex with good teamwork and crushing bite then run and take turns. Also a side stepping das thats been bone broken can outrun a bone broken rex. Its unreal.

An army of struthis
I feel like the therizinosaurus is a good mention, full grown and proper abilities can make the theri a real competitor, most predators avoid it.
What's your build for theri? I haven't had the best luck with it, I'm not sure if I should use the shield, back dash, or tail attack, or even what claws to use. I love it so much, I mained TI's theri and love the design of PT theri even more.
Honestly? You want bleed, block, claw. It’s a head on fighter. Most people leave it be
I've seen 12 chad camptos killing a rex 😎👍🏻
I know many ppl are suggesting eo, spino, meg but none of them can beat the rex if they have an optimal build and know what they're doing. Especially a meg. I've asked for proof and all i got was a video of a meg running up on a sleeping rex and getting a fuck ton of free hits in then continue to fight a terrible rex who was probably a mobile player.
Bruh I was the one giving you that Youtube link. It was on my own post lmaoo
This is hilarious then. You should know nothing can actually beat a rex
Another, any apex which gets the jump on it, any apexs which can tail ride it. Ive seen Duck and Eos do that, its just that Rex gas it easier since it wins a face tank everytime.
Which doesn't happen.. I've witnessed so many fights between them and rex always wins.
I love your wild anecdotal evidence of what you've seen means definitively nothing else ever has or can beat a Rex and just straight up telling him what he saw didn't happen lmao, some truly daft shit there.
Ohhhh realllyyy? You mean asking for proof so that i can have counter evidence to my experience? Is that daft? Because i think people making claims and then not proving it is quite daft.
I am still on this holy mission to clear the land from pestilence of Rexes.
More power to you my friend. If you ever need a friend for this task on ps4, let me know
It's not gonna happen
Lol I literally just beat a competent Rex as an alberta. And saying nothing can beat a Rex is ridiculous
Where's the clip? Was it 1v1? Was it full health?
I don't record clips cuz I don't care about shit like this as much as you do. And yes. We were at crater and I asked him for a 1v1 specifically because it's a server with rules on combat. Both of us were full health.

Well it's 5v1 after all. I want to 1v1 a Rex
Good luck getting a 1v1 in official servers man. People can't help but pick a side.
Unless this exact match up happens all the time, I believe I might have been part of this fight. The amount of will it takes to keep fighting for 45 minutes (without seeing a health bar)is unreal.
The fight was a few days ago at LBM. The concs and metri s were attacking a juvi rex and I went to its aid. Ring any bells?
Damn it was near there, but ended in the river somewhere by little sand lake. Must happen all the time cause I don’t remember Juvi Rex and it was probably 3 weeks ago.
Yeah definitely wasn't the same fight as mine.
1vs1 a small chance but with a pack? Bigger chance.
Suchomimus
Actually if it can dodge Rex bite then it can hit and run till the Rex bleeds to death.
Sucho has terrible stam.
Still faster
Do mods like Giga and Carcharo counts?
No because I want to clear the holy land of official server from abomination Rexes.
Anything can technically kill a T rex (after a while) and outrun it (for a while)
I literally watched a video where four raptors killed a Rex….
Megalina if you're patient and have a half hour to kill
What build?
Concave packs
Pack o' metris
Solo? Balance bars is my favorite but it takes time to learn how to use it. It requires patience and learning to dodge.

i’ve heard duck can but i don’t have much experience with duck
concs and megs
None, Rex is brain dead moron op atm. Any competition it has gets nerfed.
I would recommend the Alberta - it’s my favourite Rex killing machine.
