Taming & KO Tips

How do I tame a doedicurus? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a doedicurus.
even at alpha stage there's nothing better than a good doedic must have tame 110%
GENTE!!! Eu descobri que aquela centopeia gigante que fica dentro das cavernas dão entorpecimento no ataque base, se você bater com ele no tatu, o tatu vai no chão muito mais rápido e você não precisa usar nenhuma flecha, apenas bater nele e esperar a vida subir um pouquinho pra bater de novo, eu não vi ninguém mostrando essa técnica, por isso vim contar, tamo junto irmão!! Use com sabedoria.
Do not try to tame this guy on a cliff, he will send you flying to your death. Lead them down hill, also use tranquil darts and not a bat.
You can trap this thing. It can’t fit through a 1x1 wooden doorway, but you can. Make a trap with ramps for it to get in and wooden doorways for walls for a quick escape. Wood foundation is enough. I tame doedicurus lvl 45 with a mix of tranq arrows, slingshot, and club. It rolled into a ball but it eventually unrolls. If you have a trap, you can be patient. If you’re low on metal/supplies or just want a stone base quickly, this is the tame for you. The tranq darts idea make sense to me, but I didn’t want to make so much gunpowder and metal ingots.
If it’s over lvl 100 bring more then 100 tranq darts, when it’s balled up it’s annoying to knock out bc it takes less topor.
Quite easy to tame go to the redwood forest or a mountain shoot a couple of tranq arrows and pit da kibble and wait
I found a level 25 doedicurus and it took at least 40 traq arrows to know him out
Doing too much damage too fast will cause it to go into armor mode. If you are using a crossbow count your shots. Start when you get the hit marker and shoot when you get to 5.
If its been damaged by dinos before you start dont even waste your arrows. Find a Doed that has full health. This works regardless of levels.
Hope this helped.
just tamed a level 140 on aberration with a primitive crossbow and darts. make sure to hit its head and wait like 5 seconds counted slowly between shots and it won't go into the ball mode
Once found attack it until it goes into is shell then place a thatch floor over it you need obstruction off and after you have trapped it it can't move or attack and you can knock it out
Used to have 3 of these; Mallet, Hammer and Sledge. They were killed by a former tribemate because we cuffed him but they got us a full circle of behemoth gates around a lake in 2 days, would recommend for any survivor building stone. Dont hit on the shell only takes a fraction of torpor.
I see at least 3 in the stream next to the redwoods everytime I fly over there
Torpor takes a lot of narcs to increase, even on a lower level, make sure to take plenty.
If it rolls up, walk away until you're out of sight, it'll get up after a few seconds.
Just tried to tranq a level 130 with 100 darts and didn’t fall, it instead froze up and is now just standing in one spot. I don’t know , but this is the first time this is happened to me in all the years of playing ark
Just shot a level 12 doed w 15 tranq arrows in the head, about 2 seconds between each hit... still attacking me, not running away.
I ended up using 35 tranq arrows before it finally fell asleep. The tranq estimates have been so bad lately
I knock it out by the tail using tocacated arowes
Make a pen with hatchframe, shoot their belly. If it balled up, cease fire wait it until uncurls. Repeat if needed, boom it's ready for feeding
Have a beaver follow it when out for stone and load the beaver up
just a fun guy to collect stone and even sand in scorched earth
