Use tranq darts instead of arrows if you can, because they will roll up after taking a certain amount of damage and will only take 10% torpor when rolled up

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.

When it swings its tail at you, it will sometimes lift up its backside, exposing its belly... Time your shots and you can hit the soft underbelly for max torpor.

Tame using darts. They don’t take damage so they don’t curl up into a ball when you shoot them with the darts and you just need to dodge it’s swings when it Agros on to you.

In crystal isles they get gobs of organic polymer from the giant bee cave

They no longer harvest obsidian, just stone. Not sure if they changed it with the new patch, but tried to collect obsidian in the Center with him and all I got was stone.

You will encounter them in the snow, redwoods, and mountains.

Really fun to roll around on.

Tranq arrows are fine, shoot in the face, walk backwards and continue shooting in the face, if you can shoot the underside when he turns, then go ahead. It is a little difficult to time that however. When it starts to run away from you, just keep in front of it and keep shooting it in the face. If for any reason it rolls up into a ball, let it go and find another one. If you are intent on taming it, put a structure around it to keep it safe, then sit by it for about 45 minutes to an hour, it will heal faster if you are within render of it. Leveling up the melee allows it to collect more rock with each swipe of the tail. If you are so low, put most of it in weight and some in melee, this will allow you to collect more with less trips. If you have a tribemate, and you are using a Quetzal or a skiff, then only level melee.

They can not gather metal

Do not use this to get metal only stone

Use an argy to pick it up and fly by stone and it auto farms the stone. This process is a lot quicker than rolling around on the doed. Lvl up melee- Farms more per swing. Lvl up weight- Can hold more rock.

Side note. They have a 75/ weight reduction on stone.

It's a longer tame for new players, but can make getting your first behemoth gates up so much easier, and stone is a useful resource for most of the early-mid game

On the island they spawn in redwoods!let people know!

Here are some useful tips if you're planning to tame one.

1=} Don't go for that one who aalready. It will roll into a ball and after that you can't do anything.

2=}Find a fresh Doedicurus. Wait for at least 3 sec before next hit.

3=}They can be found in redwood forest after a quiet search.

4=} You should have at least 6 wooden spiked walls, before start.

5=}Carry at least 2 Bow (or it's repairing stuff) if you're taming more that 50 lvl.

6=}Try to use bio toxin (can be obtain from Jelly Fish) instead of narcotics, it will take less than narcotics and also increase torpor more than that.

7=}Use Crops instead of berries to tame faster.

Rock man can roll

Rock man excels at getting rock

Rock man decent swimmer do not recommend though

Love Rock man

I’ve found multiple of them in front of the swamp at 72, 61 if that helps anyone

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

First you bola, then shoot in the head. Shooting in the shell will lead to hundreds of wasted tranqs.
