What are tips for doedicurus? Tips and strategies for doedicurus in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
If taming any level the best way for a quick tame under 10 or 20 mins depends on what your tame food is. Damage it until it curls up, run a few meters away wait for it to roll out and then start Tranquilizing it.
To knock out a doedicurus you can use a pachy using its charge ability and the doedicurus doesn’t deal that much damage and you will end up knocking him out before he curls up
When knocking it out using darts shoot it’s tail a couple times, and once in the head,watch health bar. When it rolls up, prone near it and keep shooting its legs and it’s belly.
Use tranq darts not arrows very hard to knock out at a low level
I knocked one out using my mantis whilst it was holding scissors. It knocked a lvl 160 doedicurus out in 2 hits. It works, I guess
Do not use Dilo kibble to tame, May 2019 tried using Dilo kibble was only getting 0.1% per kibble
If you make it roll into a ball don’t worry pull an owl out and heal it, it will stand up and you can tranq it.
It’s NOT SIMPLE!! It’s REGULAR KIBBLE!!
Can shoot anywhere for KO underbelly and head have no multiplier and shell doesnt half torpor
Aim for the head when taming. That way they take 90% torpor
If he goes into his ball form wait until he's out of the ball. He will recieve 90% less torpor when he is in ball form. So don't waste your tranq's!
This guy is super easy to knock out you dont need nets or anything super fancy just a prim rifle and at least 40 or more tranqs to be safe. depending on your rates. You will need a bunch of narcotics or none in my case because who tf is gonna wait 3+ hours for a dino to tame when you can just chuck the taming rate to 7.5x (3x plus singleplayer settings on)
Torpor drains a bit slower than this shows. Be sure to check it and not reply on thr timer
I had to peg this Dino at least 25 times with tranq darts in its hind legs, so simple tip agro it with a tough Dino in passive, then tranq till it’s down
