Found in red woods also it says on wiki near the bottom
Find one of these stony boys. Make sure you have plenty of Tranq arrows, At least 20 tranq arrows or more (Depends on the level). Shoot at the head, don't shoot the body because it has a protective layer of shell and it will lead to a lot of tranq arrows wasted. When it's knocked out, Fill its inventory with berries. After a while, you'll have one of these boys! (Note: You can use a bola if affective but DON'T when it not affective) Hope this helps :)
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
Place large bear trap to knock out easily. Give soothing paste then berries.
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.
How df do we beat a juggernaut doedicurus?
So apparently you can’t force feed them while they starve you have to let them eat it by themselves while you put the food into their inventory. I wasted 9 regular kibble by doing so.
With the new move to location ability you can tell them to go to a rock and if they have under half weight they will auto-harvest stone...i just have a couple on click to move them then i ride a beaver with few more beavers following him (its better to not have the beavers on click to move because they will get in the way) then most of the time im just moving stone from dodic to beaver...dont have to manually harvest...you can even put the beavers on wonder and follow and they will collect wood and thatch passively whole time...persknally i just take my highest attack beaver around after all the stone in area is gone instead of womder trick because most of the beavers are default attack
Shoot it while you have the chance! Once they are in their shell, it's next to impossible to tame! Once tame is the best at getting stone and flint. Must have for any stone thirsty tribe. Good luck out there survivors! -Nova charm
Have lots of nacos near.
Essential tame. When it's in its shell, knocking it out seems almost impossible.
I tamed one level 5, crossbow and around 13 tranq arrows, make sure to not hit the shell and time between the hits so he heals a little and torpor increases.
