Tips

1. Tigrex is a very fast monster. Breaking his front legs will significantly reduce the mobility of the beast. It will also stumble and fall more often, which will expose it to your attacks;
2. Luring Tigrex onto the quicksand in Sandy Plains allows to deal a lot of damage to the slow monster. Use this moment to break Tigrex's front paws and head;
3. Watch out for Tigrex's charges. Stay on the side of the monster to be out of its reach. When Tigrex is tired, it will be the perfect time to deliver a combination of attacks;
4. While the monster is charging, try to bring him to the walls. Tigrex will then run into an obstacle and get stuck in it for a while, opening up to your attacks;
5. Tigrex's roar can cause damage if you stand too close. If you see the monster propping up on its front paws and holding its head high, immediately move away from it to a safe distance;
6. Tigrex will launch a tail attack if you stay on its back for too long. Be on the move all the time, and try to cut off the tail of the monster to reduce the range of its attacks.
