A tame this thing then take it down to the stonehenge and enable wondering to get a crap-ton of stone.
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.
Tranq arrows and I used Bio Toxin, I still suggest keep on you about 50, and I used crops, the one I tamed preferred corn over potatoes, carrots and etc
Instead of shooting in the face with tranq arrows, go for the tail. Will take practice or if you managed to lure into a trap of yours it will swing its tail. If on foot just walk backwards and close enough to trigger a swing at you to get shots to the tail. In a trap just time…
Instead of shooting in the face with tranq arrows, go for the tail. Will take practice or if you managed to lure into a trap of yours it will swing its tail. If on foot just walk backwards and close enough to trigger a swing at you to get shots to the tail. In a trap just time it when it swings. Avoids it from taking too much damage from heatshots and balling up.
I have two methods of knoking it out
If you are a solo you need trank darts
If you have a friend and a argy one of you picks it up while the other shots it in the stomach
Pair with beaver or thorny dragon I prefer thorny dragon because of better stats and damage speed ext. doe can get stone thatch dragon can get wood stone base I’m seconds hope this helps please 🆙
The Regular Kibble restores 85 entities of the hunger not 50
Very easy to KO, just walk backwards while firing at its head with a tranq weapon. Don’t shoot when they ball up or else you will waste ammo (even if you hit its head while its balled up it won’t give torpor)
I once knocked one out with a sling shot in the red woods
Press the jump button while rolling on mobile to make a continuous roll which means you can’t turn but you move faster
If you deal too much damage to them while knocking them out and they turn into a ball, you can use a yutyrannus to fear roar them and they will run away, forgetting they’re supposed to stay in the ball, and you can continue knocking them out without the resistance.
Do not use bolas because they are immune to them so just tranq it and give it crops mostly carrots or meoberries if you dont have any crops.
tranq arrow with a crossbow or a tranq bullet with a gun but be careful cuz they can curl up in a ball and shield your attacks so make sure to do it fast.
Just me or if it’s on lowest follow distance it’s adorable when it chases you about
Man this is must need for stone gatherings it also make a good traveling dino since i just know he have a rolling skill 😂 im having fun rolling down a mountain and cliff they can be quite fast in water too
If your going to tame this guy then you would like something to move to a passive area as if it is in the redwoods, it is very scary when a Rex just spawns right next to you and kills you and the doedicurus!!!!
Still no way for it to gather its own berries/ food
Gathers CHITIN like a boss on Crystal Isles! Hit the ant hills in the Savannah!
If useful to you, I just found out these guys are pretty quick swimmers. Check it out, it blew my mind.
Bring some narcos their tarpor goes down a little quick
The bola does actually effect it, it makes it to where it cannot go into its shell and you can shoot it in the head with tranqs
