What are tips for doedicurus? Tips and strategies for doedicurus in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
They curl into ball once their health drops below 2/3rd of max(i.e. only 1/3rd heath remaining), keep that in mind when using tranq arrows...
Very useful for collecting resources especially sand, also very good for protection, how to tame: grab 3 boomerangs, throw one at the creature to get it angry then just keep throwing the boomerang at its face even if it runs away then when its unconscious feed it berry's, this tactic is only useful for a low level one and only works in scorched earth. Up if useful.
If youre on scorched earth use a boomerang, I knocked a lv 50 out in less than 2 minutes
The easiest way to hunger an animal is by sleeping it out. Capture and wait till night,sleep than tranq it.This apply in mobile I'm not sure for pc or console. Good luck.
Don't use a taming pen as it makes headshots near impossible. Drop it near your base and backpedal while shooting darts into its face.
you can definetly tame these with tranq arrows. put some wooden spikes around it and feed it soothing balm if you can. you dont need too much narcotics if you use soothing balm
I have found that a few spawn in consistent at the Red Wood Forest.
Use a slingshot walk backwards and shoot it u will need about 40 stones its a simple tame
To tame these guys easy enough. Use an argie to throw them in a tame trap using door frames and maybe a Dino door. Then shoot them with tranq darts and longneck rifle.
The amount of algae is incorrect for small tribes. Would take 14 for 145
When harmed, it will swing its spiky tail at whomever is attacking it. If the Doedicurus is harmed more than it could take, it will curl into a hard ball made of keratin, which is used to protect itself and fend off enemies. It will also, when tamed, roll through its enemies as another special attack. They are also great when you are in need of lots of stone 👍.
