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.
I don't think doedicurus's come back when on wander I've done it but it hasn't come back yet
Bring narcotics.not just doedic when taming any dino bring a lot of narcs.i was taming a lvl 45 doedic and brought more than
50 narcotics.they finished before I got 50% taming.luckily it was beside beach so I could get biotoxin.
These doods are gud for stone, legit in a few rocks I get like 2k stone!
Take it to your base for taming don't even think of taming it in the wild unless you are using soothing balm and kibble
Nearly fed one to a giga going for Obsidian, came back with only stone, had to roll to safety, for the love of Ark please fix the ratings
Used to have 3 of these; Mallet, Hammer and Sledge. They were killed by a former tribemate because we cuffed him but they got us a full circle of behemoth gates around a lake in 2 days, would recommend for any survivor building stone. Dont hit on the shell only takes a fraction…

Don't go into the redwoods to find these guys, I've once seen one in the river north of herbivore island. But be careful, because even then there are dangerous creatures there.
Me and my friend still shot him when he was in his little ball, I wouldn't though it was just an experiment. Also, bring around 200 narcotics we were taming a level twenty and we used about 180 narcotics.
Hit a obsi stone only got stone from it pointless to say this is pointless for obsi farm.
The amount of narcotics you need is a lie you need about 20
Make sure it is near full health while your tranqing it otherwise it'll curl up in a ball and lose torpor
When using a doedicurus to gather stone, I would suggest going carrying the doedicurus on a queztal, and fly to a mountain that contains metal. You get more stone from metal rocks when using a doedicurus

While unable to gather metal from metal nodes, it is able to collect metal when attacking obsidian nodes. It is much better than the anky at collecting obsidian. However,there currently is a bug that prevents it from gathering anything but stone in the colder regions of the island map. If a large amount of stone is needed, metal and Crystal nodes give a significantly larger amount of stone per swing than standard rocks. Wild animals will not remain aggro'd to a curled up doed. So in the even of a losing fight with wilds, you can jump off of it, it will curl up at less than 1/3 health and you can kill the animals or take aggro and lure them away. If you stay on it it will stay uncurled until dead. Follow will also prevent it from curling.
They are great at collecting stone but it doesn't have great weight.
So, they’re pretty easy tames. High torpor, and very little narcotics. So, they’re easy to tame before you get the saddle! Now most people would think, ugh, can’t use it until the saddle! Others would say, if I put it on wander it will gather some stone for me. You know…
So, they’re pretty easy tames. High torpor, and very little narcotics. So, they’re easy to tame before you get the saddle! Now most people would think, ugh, can’t use it until the saddle! Others would say, if I put it on wander it will gather some stone for me. You know what I would do? I would put it to wander, then whistle it to follow me, then whistle it to stop once I was next to a rock. Then repeat. Once you’re done put it off wander and where you want it. Super easy and efficient and because of the weight reduction the rock almost weigh nothing in its inventory!
Can confirm on PS4 when harvesting obsidian, it harvests metal at roughly the same capacity, but you have to make sure that you are not inadvertently striking stone. But it will not harvest metal alone, must be the volcanic obsidian rocks.
Anyone else find one with a bright blue shell? In the wild ive found two now
