Dododex
ARK: Survival Evolved & Ascended Companion
Tips & Strategies
Once I tamed one of these and named it itchy. Itchy got his name from when I don’t mount him he always twitches around like his whole body got infested by fleas. Once I played with my friend and we were traveling to dodo island when a random sarco came out of nowhere and started biting my friend. I ordered my trike (Tina) to get rid of that thing. But Tina fell into the water and attracted megalodons. We didn’t have any cargo on that raft so we abandoned it immediately and I jumped onto Itchy and he was insane fast and swam away before the megolodons could react. Sadly for my friend and Tina that they died and my friend lost all his gear because he did not have one of these. Itchy was a real life saver for me. A good starter mount for starters.

These things are amazing like literally Op, its easy to tame and the best thing about it is its very fast, nothing attacks it yes! nothing even when i damage any creature it will only attack me once and then leave me alone and i could also just kill creature's easily after getring hit once only yeah... just dont get off your itchy and if you do everything will start attacking you even after you get on the itchy again so dont get off the itchy under water if your tryna collect oil just equip the pickaxe and you'll be able to mine while riding the itchy! which means your on god mode bec nothing is a threat to you.. i dont know about land creatures tho...
These are great beginner marine tames the only thing about these guys is that they have: #1 low health, #2 low weight, #3 horrible melee damage #4 in everything other than mobile they CAN agro other creatures, but just pump his stamina, weight, and movement speed and you have a super quick water tame.
I hope this was useful.
-JUST ANOTHER COMMON ARK PLAYER
Please don’t be fooled. All these people saying they won’t get attacked is a feature on MOBILE ONLY. Even on pc or console, there’s still good tames. While they’re not great harvesters and don’t have much health, food, or stamina, they're easily capable of outswimming everything in the ocean. Those stupid megalodons don’t stand a chance.
Good parts about ichyosaurus (mobile) - THESE FEATURES ARE ONLY IN MOBILE AND I HAVE NOT TESTED ON COMPUTER
