Dododex
ARK: Survival Evolved & Ascended Companion
Tips & Strategies

Here is a tip for those of us using large rocks for cover, trying to hide out in the forests while playing solo: If you park this little guy by a rock, he will destroy the rock all by himself. If you carry him with an argie and skim over a rock, he will destroy that rock all by himself and you lose your cover (good luck getting refertilizer to re-grow your rocks). The good news is that you can harvest stone with this little guy by simply skimming over rocks, avoiding the chance of getting eaten by a hidden saber tooth or a raptor!
More Doedicurus Utility Tips
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.
