With feats and abilities how can i turn a T-Rex to an Indominus Rex.
Im joining an evil campaign and i believe this would be crazy fun.

I think you shouldn't even start with an animal in the first place. Try starting with an eidolon, then adding funky evolutions to it. I.e, blindsense (to mimic thermal detection), skill focus stealth, skilled evolution(stealth) for sneaky. Grab evolution. Invis from summoner makes the "dinosaur" become part of the surroundings,
If you do druid route, still skill focus stealth, keep longstrider and blend on so Mr Rex goes mighty quick and sneaky. Find a way to keep echolocation spell on Mr Rex permamemtly to mimic thermal detection(so far I know no way to do this).
Probably Primal Companion Hunter, because it's the best of both worlds
I agree with Just a Mort. Eidelon will give you those options while you will be spending feats as a Druid and a lot of spells to empower your Large Animal. Just as an Eidelon, the Indominus Rex was an amalgamation rather than a natural creation of evolution. Thematically, it suits a Summoner better to idealize and manifest said ideal animal than a Druid playing at Pokemon.
Currently playing an Evil Aasimar Druid in Curse of the Crimson Throne. Also have a T-Rex as an animal companion. Selected the Celestial Servant feat so my T-Rex is also just as fallen as I am. The spell Atavism gives it temporarily the Advanced Template for that delicious stat boost, but the tricks I chose favored Hunter purpose. Has a super-bite, and a wonderful set of back-up skills, but little else. Very combative, but nowhere near as sophisticated as the I-Rex that you desire, hence why I second the nomination for a Summoner.

I get the impression that Indominus Rex is quite a bit smarter then your animal companion, even if you were to increase its intelligence to 3.
Primal companion hunter ability primal transformation is minutes per level, and primal surge only allows 1 evolution.
Here are the list of evolutions you might want for Indominus Rex:
Blindsense (3 evo points)
Skilled (Stealth) (1 evo point)
Shadow Blend (Su) (2 evo points)
In any condition of illumination other than bright light, the eidolon disappears into the shadows, giving it concealment (20% miss chance). If it has the shadow form evolution, it instead gains total concealment (50% miss chance). The eidolon can suspend or resume this ability as a free action.
Grab (2 evo points)
Stealth rules:
When you start your turn using Stealth, you can leave cover or concealment and remain unobserved as long as you succeed at a Stealth check and end your turn in cover or concealment.
Since concealment is always with you, you can always stealth.
For daylight issues, we have:
Hellcat Stealth - You may make Stealth checks in normal or bright light even when observed, but at a -10 penalty.
Eidolons also have more skill points to dump into stealth then an animal companion would.

I was digging the idea of playing a druid this campaign but i believe this would be wicked fun in an evil setting. Ive never touched a sorcerer class in any campaign and im loving this idea.
