Nearly fed one to a giga going for Obsidian, came back with only stone, had to roll to safety, for the love of Ark please fix the ratings
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.
How ARK players tame and knock out the Doedicurus: what to feed it, what to knock it out with, and how to keep it safe.
Don't go into the redwoods to find these guys, I've once seen one in the river north of herbivore island. But be careful, because even then there are dangerous creatures there.
Me and my friend still shot him when he was in his little ball, I wouldn't though it was just an experiment. Also, bring around 200 narcotics we were taming a level twenty and we used about 180 narcotics.
Hit a obsi stone only got stone from it pointless to say this is pointless for obsi farm.
The amount of narcotics you need is a lie you need about 20
Make sure it is near full health while your tranqing it otherwise it'll curl up in a ball and lose torpor
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…
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
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.
Can trick out of shell if healed with snow owl 😎
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.
These guys need triple tranq arrows/darts than what it says because I was trying to tame a lvl 55 and I needed 40 tranq darts and 31 tranq arrows. Be Wary!
To make it NOT GO IN ITS SHELL just use tranq arrows and make sure to bring at least 30 tranq arrows.
I personally just tame them normally because they walk very slow and aiming for the head isn’t that hard and when it starts to run you just hit it’s head with a bat
When you tranq it keep your distance or else it will ball up and you have to start over.
Just did a 120 well over what is said here. Ruined my tame. And my time ty
It says you need to tranq it 19 times but i shot it 70+ and it's still concious
Does not get obsidian so everyone knows
At lvl 50 need over 1000 narcoberrys
