To the perso who said “ doesn’t gather element dust!!!!!” It does. You have to use it on extinction on the light poles. Best way 20/10

One cool think I found out is if you carry a tamed one with your Argy, hover over rocks and it will gather stone while being carried.. A damn hovering bulldozer💪.. (oh, same goes for Castroides and wood)

We can all agree riding it and getting stone is sometimes a pain and a risk when your are low lvl so just put it on wandering grab it with an arge then get closer to rocks then boom you got yourself some stones and it also can be used to collect thatch and you don’t have to put him down while carrying him with an arge when collecting stones just get closer to the rock . Hope this was helpful :)

This dino can now collect element dust from light posts on extinction your welcome.

A must pet as they are really good for gathering stone and they can also get some thatch and wood,and they have balanced and good stats

On Ark Mobile, at least, Argies can pick tamed ones up and they’ll auto mine stone when you fly near rocks, making it a great combo for when you have both of them and don’t want to waste durability of your hatchet.

If you ever see a high level blue doed, grab it up with your argy! I was able to get a 290 mating pair this way. Usually the pretty ones are so low level.

These things are actually easy to tame! First, Let's pack some things.

- Large bear traps (If possible)

-Tranq arrows (Bring at least 20 or more, You can replace arrows with darts or shocking darts)

-Narotics or biotoxins (Bring 50 or more of them)

-Taming foods (Preferred kibble is Dilophosaurus kibble or Regular Kibble. If using berries bring at least 100 if not using sooting balm, Recommended with sooting balm to tame.)

-Argentavis with saddle (Optional)

Taming without Argy (Argentavis):

First, find one of these animals.

Then place the large bear trap down and get it to aggro on you.

After it gets trapped, shoot the head, don't shoot the body because it has a protective layer of shell that could lead to many tranq arrows wasted.

After it's knock out, Give it its preferred kibbles or berries,Using sooting balm can decrease the time needed to tame. Remember to keep an eye on its torpor, Feed narotics or biotoxins if necessary and protect it while it's being tamed.

Wait for a while, then you'll get one of these! Ride it if you have the saddle, or just bring it base and goodluck keeping it safe on the way to your base!

Taming with Argy:

First, build a taming pen with a material which doedicurus can't damage.

Then, Find one of them and pick them up with your argy and fly back to your taming pen and drop it.

Then, Shoot its heady and not the body like I've mentioned before.

When it's knocked out, Feed it its preferred kibble or berries, sooting balm is recommended like I've mentioned.

Wait for a while, You'll get it soon. Remember to keep an eye on its torpor too and feed it narotics or biotoxins if necessary! Bring it to your base with your argy if you want.

Thanks 😊

Torpor rate actually slower than most now

I lost my 178 tranq arrows, 2 crossbows, 3 longbows due to a glitch in this thing

Earlier I was on ARK Mobile. I have a massive wall around my base so my creatures can walk around in it. I went to my Doedicurus to put a saddle on it when I discovered it had almost 1300 stone in its inventory. Doedicurus when wandering autonomously destroy rocks to collect stones.

Long tame but 100% worth getting one. Essential honestly.

Doeds are pretty tanky dinos. Make sure to bring WAY more darts or tranq arrows then Dododex suggests. Also run in circles with it since it's not fast enough to catch-up to you.

IF HELD BY AN ARGENTAVIS, IT CAN BE USED AS A WRECKING BALL IF YOU SLOW DOWN NEWR ROCKS!!!!!!

I wish the anky could do that; but at the same time, I’m glad that it cannot. It would be too OP.

Personally I dont think that 22 minutes is a short time vote up if you want the torpor drop rate lowered to average

Space out the tranq arrows so it doesn’t ball up I say every 5 seconds blow up for noobs

I see many new players struggling with taming one… those who lead to shore or look for a safe place…

A way better idea for starters is go level up by gathering explorer notes and tame a petra.

Then go to redwood tame a argy

Use the argy to look for a DEOD take it to your base then knock out and tame…

Yes taming takes too long with no kipple but taming at your base is way better and faster…

Don’t have more arrows? Your base is there and just make extra arrows if you run out

If you want to merk one of these for whatever reason you can use a yuty to fear-roar them out of their shell and do full damage

You see the doedicurus is one of the most useful explanation why so useful: 1 explanation]you can farm sa bunch of stone using them 2 explanation] amber farming they gather 50 amber to one hundred amber in total

If you take a snow owl you can heal it when it balls up. Once it's health is up it will come out of the ball and you can continue to tranquilize it.
