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 of torpor

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
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.
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!
Hey guys it’s GastricGem1, and I promised last time I would do a doedicerus so here I am! First off they can get lots of metal without being super heavy. Second, they can be found in the mountain area. They can also spawn pretty much anywhere other than beach. Third…. Up if helpful. 😉 next stop, carnotaur!
Anyone else find one with a bright blue shell? In the wild ive found two now
If you get him to low health the coward hides in its shell
Its a very easy tame just keep going backwards and keep shooting it. It wont hit you because its so slow
Pro tip: freeze with snow owl before shooting incase it was damaged before or use tranq darts. The reason why?.. if it balls up… Just go find another one because they bug out and after they unball they won’t go down no matter how many times you tranq it.
Can trick out of shell if healed with snow owl 😎
