One of ark’s essential tames alongside the trike (berries), anky (metal), argent (heavy travel), ptera (quick travel & argent taming), and beaver (wood).

Taming even a low-mid level can turn building in stone into an afternoon instead of a weekend. Highly recommended must have dino for everyone.

I build a home for it bc it was amazing then I was all the people saying put it on wandering near stone so I did it worked but I think it also work at your base
WARNING this may not be true

Pick it up with a argi then you can auto farm

It gather very lot of element dust from lamp on extinction. I ever saw someone attacking defense unit corpse with this guy, then he give up and use his metal pick. What a nub, he thought he can gather an element from a corpse. It gather 700+ element from lamp with only 1 swing. Try on

In crystal isles they get gobs of organic polymer from the giant bee cave up so people know

Equip your Doedicurus with a saddle, pick it up with an Argentavis and fly near rocks as it automatically harvests the stone as you fly. Level up the melee damage to harvest more stone with each swing. Level up your Argentavis’ weight capacity be an insane stone harvest team.

We can all agree riding it and getting stone is sometimes a pain and a risk when your are low lvl so just put it on wandering grab it with an arge then get closer to rocks then boom you got yourself some stones and it also can be used to collect thatch and you don’t have to put him down while carrying him with an arge when collecting stones just get closer to the rock . Hope this was helpful :)

The Doedic is one of the most essential Dino's on ark. It's the most important thing when building stone buildings, or other stone structures. The higher the level the better, and weight is essential!

If you are looking to get stone fast try to tame a doedicurus for fast and easy stone

To the perso who said “ doesn’t gather element dust!!!!!” It does. You have to use it on extinction on the light poles. Best way 20/10

The Dex says it’s number 1 at harvesting obsidian however i only get stone.. is the Dex wrong?

Doesn't gather element dust!!!!

Doedicurus will now automatically attack stone rocks. Easily fly them close to the ground or have it wandering in a enclosed rocky field, and this little dude will smash away!

They no longer harvest obsidian, just stone. Not sure if they changed it with the new patch, but tried to collect obsidian in the Center with him and all I got was stone.

They can not gather metal

Can confirm on Crystal Isles it does not pick up Obsidian

Deodicerus Can curl up in the wild.. but not when tamed I think this should be added if they can curl up in the wild they should be able to curl up when tamed

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 🆙

This is a real "MUST HAVE" tame
