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.

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!

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.

Really fun to roll around on.

They can not gather metal


Upvote so people can see

On PS4 I tried to test it's obsidian gathering since it is "Rank 1", well all it was gathering was stone. So I went to another saying maybe something was wrong, NOPE it does not gather obsidian. Just use an Anklyo for that.

People think the doedic is just for gathering stone, but these guys can soak bullets in a raid easily. Great way to get rid of an enemy tribes turrets, and not hard to tame.

Long tame but 100% worth getting one. Essential honestly.

The dodic doesn't collect metal it collects stone and sand. Very useful to build structures.

I find these to be lean, mean, pooping machines! Just go out on a stone-gathering run, roll around everywhere and wait for them to start defecating! Poop for days!

With the new updates, this creature no longer harvests obsidian.

IF HELD BY AN ARGENTAVIS, IT CAN BE USED AS A WRECKING BALL IF YOU SLOW DOWN NEWR ROCKS!!!!!!
I wish the anky could do that; but at the same time, I’m glad that it cannot. It would be too OP.

In scorched earth they can be very useful for collecting sand to make clay for adobe structures. Also their level up animation is f***ing ADORABLE

Need element dust? Use this guy on lightposts in Extinction and it will collect over 100 element dust per lightposts on 1x gathering rate! As well as some crystal, scrap metal, and electronics!

Pick him up with an argy and fly him from stone to stone and he’ll auto-harvest the stone. I’ve had moments when this worked every time I picked him up, but there are times he won’t do it at all.

Get a doed and a quetz. Pair them together for stone runs. Gather 4500 stone in 10 minutes or so depending on how far you have to go to nodes. Makes building a stone base easy and fast.

Whenever the doedicurus is moving and gets near a rock, it will collect stone automatically

they do not collect metal but are very good at getting stone

About combat: "They see me rolling... They hatin'..."

Best for gathering element dust. Make this higher on the list so more people know about it.
