How to build a Rex taming trap in ARK: Survival Ascended (SEE DESCRIPTION)
Ойындар
UPDATE: It seems that the pathfinding has been changed since I made this video. The trap still works but it's much harder to get it in. Best advice I can give is don't go too far ahead of the trap, keep the rex close to you.
Need a quick and cheap Rex trap? Look no further. This Rex trap can be set up really easily and is super simple to use!

Can confirm this. Tried for about 20 minutes to get the Rex to go into the trap, but it just kept going around the trap instead. Tried different distances from the rex as well. Biting the feathers on my argies hind-end, and comfortably standing behind the trap waiting. Both ended with the rex going AROUND the trap.

I tried this one for the second time last night and was having trouble leading it in with the argy flying slow and close to the ground and even hovering over the trap waiting for him and it kept going around. What did finally work was having the argy walking him in. I had the argy sitting between the two little walls and the rex was chomping on my butt a few seconds and when he bumped me through he followed and got himself stuck. Both times I've used this trap it's worked perfectly once the rex is in it. Just takes a little fiddling around to get them in, but with how cheap and simple it is to set up I think that's a reasonable price to pay.

I mean I’ve been using “his” traps long before he uploaded them. “His” argy trap for ASA I came up with long before he even posted an argy trap at all in ark survival evolved

Wildcard: "Ha! We've fixed the pathing. Now their traps are worthless!" Cpt Fatdog: "How many times do I have to teach you this lesson, old man!?"

Haha, I wish that were true, but I think they've actually reverted the pathfinding to the old system. I'm not sure if it's permanent or temporary.
Wow. So simple, yet so effective.

My only words were, "That's ridiculous. It's so simple!" Beautiful job as always, Cap'n!
After watching the live Rex trap video, I didn't think it could be done! But you did it.... clean and simple! Great work...
I watched the first stream you did, trying to figure out how to build a Rex trap, and I've gained a new level of appreciation for the work you do. There were soooo many solutions, but you rejected them all because they weren't simple enough, or had moving parts, or used too many different types of structures. Your commitment to simplicity and elegance is inspiring! ❤

dude so hyped to see new content. i remember learning how to stack walls thanks to you!
The captain strikes back! great work man, would love to see your trapping magic on a giga.
my jaw dropped faster and harder than the rex did, very good job, thanks again for all these videos!
Capt. you are a legend and a mastermind. Love your videos.
Quick to the point I like it, ur my go to for tame info now
you figured it out man awesome job!!!
I seriously only come to this channel for traps , bros definitely goated
Another masterpiece from the Master Trapper!
I have doubts in the non-flat area, but on the beach or green plain I have to admit, this is more than great!
pure art, better than ever 🥰 next, spino please
Yes!!! Can’t wait for the rest of the tames.
This is next level. The amount of resources needed to build this is ridiculous compared to the 2x2 with a ramp. 👍👍👍
I remember subscribing to this dude because of his innovative simplistic traps in ark. And I dont play ark too. My pc cant run the old ark let alone this new asa. Good to see him still rocking new ideas to help ark community. New ark players go subscribe him, like his videos and share , help him out. 🙂
geez thats brilliant, even simpler than your ase pillar trap,(that i tried to make in asa and failed) cant wait to go rex hunting again, thanks for all the work researchin these traps
You are the best man. I never use any other traps than that of the mighty fatdog :)
The goat for traps🔥
Sick and cheap trap Well done sir.
What the hell lol.... you know... ive used sooooo many trap styles, then ultimately on foot, but... my god... so simple... you are amazing
hot damn Captain Fatdog you've done it again!
I can't believe that works! I'm super impressed once again by the Fatdog genius, but in a sense I'm also disappointed that ASA hasn't given dinos a bit more realism in being able to step over a quarter wall. Doesn't mean I won't be using it though. Cheers big ears 😆🍻
Captain is the man of everything Ark Traps Ggs brother
You are absolutely incredible. Thank you.
captain fatdog strikes again with an incredibly simple Rex trap. I guess your traps will now be an essential for future ASA living with the new better dino pathfinding. 😁👍
Oh man, you’re the guy that invented the argy trap! I was trying to tame an argent for the longest time and got frustrated. (Not a lot of Dino’s and didn’t have any fliers.) I saw your vid and was like “no way that’ll work.” Holy shit, it’s amazing! I got my argent and didn’t have to make like an elaborate build to trap it. I love minimalist traps in ark, very nice. Thank you!
Love you Captain Fatdog

You do make me laugh Cpt, you design such easy to make traps that work brilliantly.

Amazing content
What a simple and efficient trap! I'm always amazed at your ideas.(DeepL)
If you add 2 more quarter walls to the other two pillers, so all 4 face inwards and remove the 2 upper pillers.. you have the perfect Tickle Chicken trap.. even works for tamed ones.
Cap is unstoppable with the traps.
