How to tame a Dodicurus in 5 Steps.
1. Have a Tapejara or Quetzal to take your Doedicurus to a save place in case there are Dangerous Dino around the doedi.
2. Take to save place or else to your base and make sure you have a Place to Put the doedi so it won't get away, I recommend Using Stone Building since doedi Can't Destroy it :/.
3. Shoot Da Head With Tranq Dart or Tranq Arrow if you don't have Tranq Dart yet, Cuz if u hit the Shell it'll give Half the normal torpor and less damage.
4. Make The Doedi Unconscious and then feed it with Dilo Kibble in Mobile or Regular kibble in Pc, You can use Corp and Berry to, but it's take a Centuries to tame.
5. Wait till tamed and Named it And then... Walah, Your brand new Stone gatherer machine is Ready to work.
More Doedicurus Taming & KO Tips
Use Simple Rifle and Tranq Darts instead of arrows to keep from damaging too much. Like for people to see.
First you bola, then shoot in the head. Shooting in the shell will lead to hundreds of wasted tranqs.
So much misinformation here. Where to begin lol ok so as of Aug 2023, you can knock out w tranq arrows no problem, just go for level 80+ shoot in the head not the shell, wait 5 seconds between shots. You canβt bola them so ignore that comment. Creatures do not take torpor damage when they are caught by bear traps so ignore that comment too. Someone said to use biotoxin to keep them unconscious thatβs a terrible plan because these guys wake up pretty fast, and they take quite awhile to tame high levels. You want to use narcoberries because they take the longest to take effect, the time it takes to fill up all the way is invaluable compared to filling it up fast.
I kill him with bow
How to tame properly
Be sure to shoot the doedicurus on it's underside, not the shell, the shell only takes half torpor
They are excellent at getting stone, but they cant damage stone buildings..... im confused
Use a equus when itβs balled up to tame fast
they say nothing about how when it balls up its basically impossible to knock out
To long to tame?
Pick it up with an argy and drop it into a pen. Place a sleeping bag down and sleep when you wake up it will be starved. Then knock it out at your leisure. Hope this helps. βοΈSo the noobs can see
Donβt listen to ppl who say u need tranq darts if itβs high enough lvl it wonβt get low enough to curl in a ball so if it is a high lvl you can use tranq arrows freely:)
