Dododex
ARK: Survival Evolved & Ascended Companion
Tips & Strategies
Dodos are almost completely useless, but they are great for beginners to get the hang of things. Even if you know this right from the start, a dodo is probably one of the best first tames if you just want a companion to take along. Oh yeah, and they can mate and make eggs, which I'm pretty sure makes food (if you don't hatch it that is).
More Dodo Utility Tips
These tames can be used as a bomb. You place C4 on the dodo and drop it into a base. Detonate and watch the fireworks!
When a baby dodo is newly hatched it will need berries or it might starve to death.
Regular people playing Ark : get high level tames, eventually fight the boss
Me and my friends playing Ark : breed dodos all day long to get all colors possible and align them in rainbow order
1up = +1 for dodo army
Very fun for single player
When you get lonely itβs always There
For the guy who said that it would be cool if a dodo could sit on your shoulder: on ark mobile, a dodo smaller than .75 can in fact be carried on your shoulder. Dodos over 2.6 can be ridden. Fun fact. :)
In Ark Mobile you can breed dodos to get larger or smaller. Dodos below 0.8 scale can be mounted on your shoulder and above 2.4 scale they can be mounted and ridden.
Dodos have a chance of laying an egg every time it poops. Unlike all other tames, which have a chance to lay an egg approximately every 25 minutes.
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 youβve 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!
Iβve experimented, and it looks like you get two to six prime per dodo.
Placing a dodo on agressive wander and your gigas/rexes/raptors/ect. On nutural will provide the same protection without your valuable creatures wandering away. Once the Dodo attacks, the rest follow.
Dodo's have a chance to lay an egg every time they poop. So force-feed them a bunch of stimberries (That will make them poop, and lay eggs)! Just make sure that you have some regular berries because it will make their food go down. Never again will you have to worry about obtaining Dodo eggs. You will only need to tame one!
