Tyrannosaurus



Tyrannosaurus (meaning "Tyrant Lizard King") was a huge bipedal carnivore that lived in the late Cretaceous era. It is the first large carnivore in the mod, and the first to have a complex taming method.

The T. Rex has 2 subspecies; a green variant and a brown variant. As of the 6.3 update, a config option has been added to enable a feathered version of Tyrannosaurus.

Taming
In order to tame a Tyrannosaurus, it has to be at least 9 days old; you must have a scarab gem, a regular sword, and some strong armour. Next, you have to attack and hit the T-rex until it is at 7 HP (3 1/2 hearts) when it looks like it's lying down (check using the dinopedia to see how much health he has, so you won't kill him), then you right-click it with the scarab gem. The dino's eyes will revert back to normal (non-red). You can now ride your T-rex by using a whip.

NOTE: When hitting it becomes untamed like the Allosaurus.

Trivia

 * If a select few stone tablets are put in a specific order, it is possible to see the history of an ancient civilization who found a frozen Tyrannosaurus.


 * Unlike other dinosaurs, the Tyrannosaurus is often referred to by the abbreviation T. Rex.


 * The Tyrannosaurus coloration for both subspecies might be based on the Jurassic Park series. In the franchise, male Tyrannosaurs tend to be green while females tend to be tan/beige.

Breeding
Tyrannosaurus breed every 5 minutes. The breeding probability is handled by how many individuals nearby.
