Paleo Ark rex

The Rex, renamed to Tyrannosaurus, is reworked both visually and mechanically. It features a multitude of new attacks, including directional swipes, stomps and headbashes, and has a more lean body and rounded facial structure.

The Tyrannosaurus is a large theropod with a rounded jaw and small, two-fingered arms. A row of orange spikes run down the center of its snout, and each eye has a second crest of three forming an eyebrow, with the orange continuing to form the insides of the spotting pattern on its back. The front of its hind legs are armored by wide plated scutes, with the larger frontal scales fading into smaller sets around the back and inside. Larger feature scales adorn the Tyrannosaurus' back, along with large blotches of greens, greys and blue, with the coloration running down from the snout and head and continuing along the tail. The wider-scaled bellies are found in dusty reds and browns, and their main body features primarily green and brown. On the Paleo variant, only the males bear greens, while the female's main bodies are exclusively brown. Their black or brown patterning is primarily spotted, with thin, chaotic striping running down the front of their legs and top of the tail. The Paleo variant also features feathers running down the length of its spine, crossed by orange, yellow, red or teal striping, and has a bolder striped pattern running from its lower jaw onto the upper lips.

Bite The Tyrannosaurus bites the target for 62 damage.

Roar The Tyrannosaurus unleashes a menacing roar to frighten enemies, causing them to defecate and become stunned for a short time. Flyers also get grounded. To be affected, the target's Drag Weight must be 200 or less, and their level must be lower than the Tyrannosaurus'.

Headbash turn Disabled while moving The Tyrannosaurus turns in place, swinging its head at the target for 100 damage.

Stomp The Tyrannosaurus stomp twice for 130 damage

Tail swipe The Tyrannosaurus swipes its tail at the target for 62 damage.

The Tyrannosaurus cannot be tamed with conventional KO means and must instead be befriended. To initiate taming, drag a corpse of at least 150 drag weight over to a wild Tyrannosaurus, which will approach to eat. It does not matter whether the survivor is holding the corpse when it begins eating, and will not be hostile to the survivor, their tames or wild dinos during this time. An icon will appear above it, indicating its current trust. The Tyrannosaurus will begin to wander around, stay nearby and it will eventually roar and toss its head in the air, before beginning to approach again. When it approaches, do not move. It will prompt either for a pet, or for a treat, from one of the following potential items: Raw Meat Raw Prime Meat Raw Mutton Exceptional Kibble The item only needs to be within the survivor's inventory, and does not need to be slotted into the hotbar. If the item it requests is not possessed it will not negatively impact the taming process, and is only to speed up the process of reaching maximum trust. After the trust is maximized, the Tyrannosaurus will allow the survivor to mount it, after which dinos must be killed to complete the taming process. The higher the dragweight of the killed target is, the sooner the taming will be completed.
