Basic Logic For Basic Materials

Therizinosaurus = General/Fiber

Doedicurus = Stone

Casteroides = Wood

Ankylo = Metal/Flint

Taming even a low-mid level can turn building in stone into an afternoon instead of a weekend. Highly recommended must have dino for everyone.

One of ark’s essential tames alongside the trike (berries), anky (metal), argent (heavy travel), ptera (quick travel & argent taming), and beaver (wood).

Me: So you can harvest the most stone out of any method, take a quarter of the weight, but can’t break stone walls…

Doedicurus: Yes.

These guys reduces Stone's weight by 75%.

A good level doedic can carry weight between 400-600. The one I tamed(wild-270) which is a lvl 390 can carry almost 2600 Stone's per trip.

The Doedic is one of the most essential Dino's on ark. It's the most important thing when building stone buildings, or other stone structures. The higher the level the better, and weight is essential!

This dino is underrated i got 3,000 stone in 10 mins w mine i swear they soo good plus if u have a tickle chicken then u can get wood and trikes, brontos etc get thatch so if ur like me and have a tickle chicken a bronto and a doedecrius then u can get everything u need to make a heavily fortified stone base in abt an hour u can have a 5 story house and a perimiter fence 5 walls high so not even rexes can get in only gigas or that enemy tribe that has rocket launchers lol

I’ve seen a lot of tips on harvesting obsidian and metal of people complaining how they get only stone from harvesting it and that’s because the doedic only harvests stone

As a starter, you may think you won’t need a stone gatherer, such as the Doedicurus, since the Ankylo also mines stone, but, trust me, this fella will make your life a million times easier! Also, they are surprisingly good swimmers!

Equip your Doedicurus with a saddle, pick it up with an Argentavis and fly near rocks as it automatically harvests the stone as you fly. Level up the melee damage to harvest more stone with each swing. Level up your Argentavis’ weight capacity be an insane stone harvest team.
