Dododex
ARK: Survival Evolved & Ascended Companion

Tips & Strategies

Dodos are quite easy to tame, and have few uses, but here’s a guide anyway.
1. Find a dodo, they are found on the southwest, south, and southeast beaches, sometimes they are in the jungle next to the beaches.
2. Easiest way to knock out a dodo is to use fists, however it’s sometimes problematic with high level high health dodos, so I recommend a club or slingshot. Tranq arrows are kind of a waste, and can kill the dodo depending on level. No trap is needed because the player is able to outrun the dodo
3. Mejos work great, and won’t really affect the effectiveness so I recommend those, you won’t need narcs, and it is a quick tame, so just sit by it until it’s up
Happy taming!
P.S. I’m making an in depth taming guide for every creature in ark, so check those out, all my tips have this format and end in Happy taming! If these are helpful, please raise it to the top so it can help more people
You can get prime meat from the babies, but it spoils very quick, so this is how to get it all to a predator:
1. Incubate lots of dodo eggs so they only have one or two seconds left to hatch.
2. Carry the dodo eggs as well as a campfire (you might need two) and fuel.
3. When you’ve knocked out the predator you want, light the fire and hatch some of the dodo eggs.
4. Kill the babies and harvest their meat with a metal pick.
5. Feed the meat to the predator and enjoy!
I’ve experimented, and it looks like you get two to six prime per dodo.
Taming a dodo is super EASY!
But good for first Dino 😄
if u are new to ark then yes u can tame one or two but don't let ot get tooo much. i know they are cute but that's it. they are not helpful and u need to take care of them. i had so much of them and it broke my heart to kill them because i couldn't tame more dinosaurs
HELLSPAWN DODO!!!!
Once I was on the beach and this little dodo comes up to me hes no more than lvl 70 but guess what he does, he bites me! I slashed at him with my sickle! But he still goes on fighting! So I bring out my gun and shoot him! So he go flying! To the Herbivore Island! How did he... one up is another confused mind
Do not try to tame.
They are not lame.
Dodos can come in packs of 2 or more,
But that's enough to chase you across the moor.
If you somehow succeed in the task,
You'll have to wear a suit and mask,
They emit a deadly toxin,
And claw you until you're boxin'.
Strap a c4 to their beaks,
Throw them over all the peaks,
They'll survive,
Though you won't be alive.
Earning the trust,
Impossible and I must.
Sometimes you can find them roaming the islands and trees,
They'll topple you in the slightest breeze.
Beak is the hardest material,
Pecks you 'till your gone.
Feathers are sharp like a thorn,
But more poisonous than a snake's fangs,
Destroy your crops and corn,
Just to eat the horn of a unicorn to tame.
Beware of the deadly creature
Because you'll be it's next torture feature.
Alright so this is how to tame a dodo for newbies
1: get some berries (make sure it’s a decent amount so you don’t run out)
2: find a dodo and punch it/club it until it's unconscious
3: feed the dodo the berries (give it more as needed)
4:you have a dodo! Give him a name and enjoy 😊
My friend had a dodo... and it has like 8000% melee damage and 2000 health.... the most op thing we have tamed
Just punch it until it sleeps and feed it berries
