Dododex
ARK: Survival Evolved & Ascended Companion
Tips & Strategies
If you need stone, I highly recommend getting a Doedicurus tamed. It's the best stone farmer and reduces the weight of stone by a lot.
Apparently, you can have the Doedicurus farm stone in the air if you pick it up with a Argentavis. Haven't tested it, but that's what my brother told me. Take it with a grain of salt.
It can get around 400-500 stone per swing (although now that I think about it today is the weekend and isn't there like weekend events for Increased harvest?)
Abilities That I know: Roll, you can start rolling in a direction, uses a little stamina, but decently quick for a Doedicurus. Then there's the main hit, for hitting stone, and atleast wild ones curl up in a ball and I would assume take less damage.
I got my first Doedicurus recently, so take all of this with a grain of salt.
More Doedicurus Utility Tips
There’s a way to fully lock a wild doed in place (or atleast on UME)
1; Get plant species Z fruit
2: find a doed
3: Hit the doed until it enters its shell
4: throw the fruit at it, it will become confused and “leave the shell” but technically still in it. The game becomes confused as its ment to be in the shell and it is and not at the same time, so it stays immobile.
The one i hit is still there.
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.
