These creatures are easy to tame if u got argie and taming pen
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.
They do get obsidian just only on the island
Once you tame one of these guys it’s absolutely amazing first of all for some reason it swims VERY fast! Second of all if you swipe up on the left side of the screen while riding it it’ll start rolling pretty quickly and while it’s rolling it can climb steep slopes for…
Once you tame one of these guys it’s absolutely amazing first of all for some reason it swims VERY fast! Second of all if you swipe up on the left side of the screen while riding it it’ll start rolling pretty quickly and while it’s rolling it can climb steep slopes for some reason! So… yeah. I hope you enjoyed!
The dodic doesn't collect metal it collects stone and sand. Very useful to build structures.
This thing nearly mashed me into oblivion on a taming venture gone wrong!
IT ROLLS thats the fun part but its defence aint that bad
today 05/17/2022 I tested it in the creative and the torpor rises 708 both in the head and in the Shell, there is no headshot difference
Actually you can knock them up even balled up with a equus(horse)(right click) tried it just know
Gathers rock with ease. Just set it on wander and neutral in a rocky area and let it walk around. Upgrade melee damage and speed for faster and more efficient gathering.
When taming and it balls up, it will unball when it poops, but will still have the 90% damage reduction until it starts moving again. Just be patient and wait for it to move, it is not glitches.
REMINDER: A LVL 35 DODEC TAKES ONLY 5 DILO KIB NOT 7.
It will auto gather when carried by an argy. No need for another player
doe saddle unlocks at 34 so if your not this lvl yet juts tame it and get it near a rock and doe will gather it and it can not be more than 800 in damage cause it will make him take less rocks.like to blow.....
I hope Doedodex updates it so it shows the efficiency for the gathering of electronics with the doedicurs on the extinction dlc map. When hitting benches, lights, etc. PLEASE/THANK YOU
If you fly over rocks while having a doedic picked up on an argy it will harvest for you
Use an owl to hunt and tame. Once it goes into a ball, heal it! The ball is a mechanic for damage mitigation. Once out of the ball, keep peppering your tranqs.
These guys DESTROY their food supplies. Bear that in mind.
Great for harvesting stone. If you want to build stone houses or stone traps this is your Dino.
Always use an Argy to drop into a 4x4 stone doorframe pen for taming.
Their torpor does not go down fast, it’s just really hard to keep its torpor up. Like so people see
