Which stats to focus on for a Rex ?

[Slick Dick Tyrone]

I'm arguing with my friend, he want to level up a few points in health to get him to 15K hp, and the rest to invest in damage...I want the opposite. Who's right ?

[Phantasm98532]

Standard Tank build, 2 points health to 1 point Melee.

Edit: Personal opinion of course.

[[IRA] Aurora]

You're both wrong.

At LEAST 1k damage, rest HP.

I recommend ~130-140% speed with some stamina as well.

[DeadJukez | TTV]

I get mine up to 20k+ health, a bit of speed, at least 2k stamina, and the rest melee

What's the purpose of the Rex, and what kind of server? PvP/PvE?
PvE...meh I'd go between 5k and 10k on health. 1k to 1.5k dmg. Don't forget stamina, rexes run out quick.
I mean...on PvE, what are you going to run into at that point that could put up much of a fight, other than decent Alpha rex?

My current alpha killer.

Bingo, With players walking around with rex's like that you don't want to be neglecting the HP stat as some have suggested.

I looked into this a while ago, the best possible combination is to have 6 more points in health than melee to get a creature that will deal the most damage before it dies. If you think it isn't going to die (not PvP basically) then add melee or if you play PvP maybe a little more health if it's going to be shot by turrets.

This as well.

Depends on stats to begin with. I got a 120 up with 8k of health, so focused a lot on health to make the most of it. Has almost 70k health and around 1300-1400 dmg.

Yes, it really depends on PVP or PVE.
I play PVE, and all our dinos get bumped to over 10k hp, then we work on attack or carry weight or movement, depends on what they will be used for.

[ShaZZa]

Depends on a few factors. What level is the rex? What kind of server (pvp or pve)?
My mate in our tribe on official server has a 120 kibble tame rex with ~20k health ~2200dmg an this thing is a monster (literally, an that's it's name too). It can take anything thrown at it, including a 120 alpha rex.
