When trying to knock it out, use an owl to freeze heal it and it will come out of its shell. This makes knocking it out so much faster and easier.
Doedicurus
The Doedicurus is an armored, armadillo-like herbivore prized for gathering and carrying stone. When threatened, it curls into a remarkably well-protected ball.
Player-written tips for taming, using, and fighting the Doedicurus in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
its the worst to tame with just a crossbow and some tranq arrows
On Prim Plus you can give them fresh Barely instead of Kibble (last time I tired 3-24-2019)
Essential for farming element dust from structures such as lampposts and benches on Extinction, ^ vote to spread the word!
It can farm massive elementdust, cristal and electronics at extinction on tables and lanterns on the Sanctuarys. Best dino for that. Skill meeleedamage for massive more efficiency!
Use on extinction to gather element dust and crystal from lamp posts and tables. If you have a crab (argy or quetz also work) you can quickly solo run ele dust (I got about 15k in an hour on 1x). You just have to put the doedicurus on wander and carry him near a lamp with your…
Use on extinction to gather element dust and crystal from lamp posts and tables. If you have a crab (argy or quetz also work) you can quickly solo run ele dust (I got about 15k in an hour on 1x). You just have to put the doedicurus on wander and carry him near a lamp with your other tame. Make sure you empty him every 2-3 swings or he will overencumber on crystal and won't swing automatically any more. Of course he also cannot be on follow or he won't auto swing either.
If you carry this with an argentavis, quetzal, wyvern, or karkinos, it will swing and gather stone when in front of a rock until it is encumbered. Upvot3 for everyone to see!
Pair a doedic with a casteriodes and you are unstopable
If you read the small print at the end of the page it the doedic can harvest obsidian from sertain rocks like the obsidian rocks on the volcano on the island
The needing of Narcotics Needed is not properly calculated (settings set to Smalltribe Settings. x3 tamimg)
Dododex double the amount of kebble needed lvl 16 single player
Put this guy on attack my target and pick it up with a high weight argy. When you hover a rock he will hit it. Makes it a lot easier to get a lot of stone in one go.
If they roll up use an owl to heal them so they unroll.
Use a frog to knock it out. Don't waste tranq supplies!
Make sure the frogs melee isn't to buffed up, as it can kill the low-mid level doeds
They dont collect metal only stone.
Doeds collect gems on abberation when they are being carried.
Doesn't collect metal try doing it on my game won't let me just got stone
Tame a doedic pump weight then set it on wandering and pick it up with a argy and fly next to a rock and it’ll collect stone. Since the doedic has a weight reduction you should just leave it in his inventory.
Let’s say you roll a good distance to get stone, your encumbered almost and moving slow as an achatina and it’s gunna easily be a 10 min roll back to base, we’ll if there’s a river or water near your base just roll into the water and Voila! Who knew these things could…

just know to let it starve and keep it sleeping bring at least 200 narcotics. took me 3 ark days and is stil starving out but when it tames its gonna be worth it
