HoganRyan01 Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 I'm preparing for the Dodorex. Will my theris do the trick? How many should I bring? My mutated line of theris is currently at like 15 mutations. (60 HP and 50 MD). I do not have any good saddle blueprints as they are exetremely rare for some reason for me.

I've been running the swamp cave trying to get them. Also, fishing loot doesn't seem to have them. I'm doing a sort of "story mode" so I can't go to the next ARK before completing all the ARKs. Still on the island 2 years later haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
millwight Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 I've got ascended therizino BP on extinction doing purple drops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thyme Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 Bring a deinonychus. Or an allo pack if a deinon isn't available. A dodorex can have 2 million hp if you're particularly unlucky but the deinonychus doesn't care. They just have to nip at its tail and it can be your solo damage output, you just need beefy herbivores to tank it. My plan is to bring a gasbags. They take so little damage that only the fire % damage will cause issue. Cakes should hold it off long enough for the deinon to work its magic, assuming the gasbag can keep aggro.

I thought the Dodorex only spawned at level 1 and only had 666,666.6 HP? and yeah, deinons not available as I am still on the island I'll take a look and see what kind of Allos I have.

I believe that's correct. You could take a Yuti along to add support to the Theriz. I've considered doing it myself too, but not sure whether i'll use cakes or not, don't really know if I can be bothered to make a load of them.

I was thinking I could bring like 10 theris and a few allos for the bleed. Bring a yuty for the buff and have the fight happen in the water where it cannot do it's fire breath. Would this work?

Iv gotten "better" theri saddles from the northern end of the map, out of a red supply drop. If you camp or set up a base up north, Iv seen many more red drops from the northern end of the island map than on the south beaches or even in the middle of the map. With this said, theri saddles CANNOT be fished, they are only available in red orbitals, red swamp, and all underwater caves, but they are NOT in the deep sea loot crates.

I live at exactly 50,50 on The Island in a redwood tree but haven't had much luck with drops haha.

I frequent the swamp cave but seem to just get like water pipes and electrical generator blueprints in the red drops typically the same here....you may have to hit 20 red drops before you find anything good. If your playing single player, I strongly advise turning the loot crate drop quality up in the settings. Its not cheating, trust me, you will still have to work and bust your butt off to find a theri saddle. But you will not be chasseing your tail forever on the matter. If your on a server, might try to get a bit lucky with the lipo....but its no safe bet Best way of hitting the drops is to get a high stamina argy, go to the blue oblesk ontop of the mountain, and keep your eye's peeled....there are three drops beside the skylord cave that can spawn in red. There is one up on the mountain itself, tho its usually purple, a couple along the river thats right there, going eastwards is a couple towards the center north mountain, and finally carno island has one that pops in red from time to time. My main go to for a big base is usually 10, 10 ish area. Not only sweet drops, but org poly is close by, crystal, obsidian, metal, and taming up a yuty is as easy as stepping outside and shooting tranq darts blindly.

cfrostyscriv Posted October 16, 2020 Share Posted October 16, 2020 Not sure whether an event affects loot quality in cave drops or just a coincidence but when the lockdown 4x event was going on I was getting far better loot from the drops in the swamp cave. managed an 80+ armour MC theriz saddle BP and 2 flak BP's over 500 dura.

Don't know why it has to be a fair fight, it's a creature with 666,666 base health, crazy damage, and insane regeneration. If the devs cared about a "fair fight" against the Dodorex they would've made you fight it in an Obelisk like the other bosses. Dodowyern will always require different tactics, and you can't really use Mosas on Scorched, so that point is kinda moot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tusos have some comparable DPS, I just use Mosas because they were around when the DodoRex was first added so it's kinda just a habit to use them. Maybe use that Tuso to tame some Mosas.
