Ark HOW TO FIND THE DODOREX EVERY TIME Solo!

[@jacobchamberland8099]

Steve, I appreciate that you really express all the pain that a lot of us players have with this event and in finding the dodorex. Lots of youtubers find it so easily, but you really show how stupidly designed this whole system is. It made me feel like I’m not the only one that struggles on it🤣. Anyway thanks for the tips. Hopefully I can find it🤞

[@olejoachimjonstang3233]

I’m fu#*ing pissed at wildcard, cus I spent a lot of time on scorched trying to find a dodowyvern. And when I finally managed to find and kill it I found a zombie fire wyvern. And I went onto the island, cus I wanted to fight the overseer. And after that I lost all of the wyverns. Aaannnnddd the fire one was level 400😭😭😭😭 Also I lost all the stuff I had transmitted after the overseer was killed. And I also lost my survivor, two fucking unicorns and three Halloween manas

“Now there are lots of maps on ARK but you can only find the Dodorex if you are on the Island server. There’s a good reason for that… and that’s because the Devs can’t be bothered to put it on the others.” 🤣🤣🤣 your delivery is comedy gold.

If you’re on a private server or singleplayer with S+ you can use the Dino scan feature of the tel transmitter to find it or the dodo Wyvern. Also, snow owl’s heat vision ability can help spot it while you swoop through an area.

I wish they had listened to you years ago, but for some reason, they are and have always been stubborn to the point of ignorance. Very poor show on their behalf in my opinion. Glad you made the effort once again Steve. Shows them up for what they really are !

[@The_Liquidator]

Its not only this stuppid event, its all the bugs that are still there since 2015. Like the dino's that sack through the floor is still not fixed. Structures that not snap properly, raining while you have a roof above you, character duplication, dinos and stuff lost in transfer and so on. But we all keep on playing, so WC dont give a shit about it. TYhnx for showing us how difficult it is to find it, its what a lot of us are struggling with.

[@bobthebuilder5213]

I never encountered other bugs u mentioned except the creatures lost in transfer(I lost a super mutated mana when the game decided not to teleport it back out from the code Red mission) but we all have one thing in common & that is we all fricking love dinosaurs that's why we keep playing.

[@mightyraptor01]

I think as Im watching you would need tek helmet or night vision goggles to see in the freaking dark.

[@bexieid2456]

We’re lucky on our server the admin has made the nights longer on The Island and SE. And they have spawned in the DodoWyvern on The Island for us.

[@raevend1540]

Thanks so much for the tip about the music! I have mine off and was finding this impossible (even when I got desperate to *see* the blessed thing so was flying around in creative mode . I am new so can’t possibly beat it but I wanna seeeee!) Since you always find it south of the volcano, try sweeping the map from let to right instead of up and down. Perhaps you will locate it in less passes and have time to do more than sight see.

[@hannahshark8080]

Having music on often provides you with useful information such as if you've been aggroed or entered an important area. I advise keeping it on but turned down low so that it doesn't bother you.

[@oggor]

And Steve comes in again with the best how to video for ark! Thanks a ton mate

Thank you for the sweep and scan method, had my volume right up each time.

Got a 280 and 150 zomdodo and loads of Chibis and bones etc so wrapped I got it before the end. Killed the wyvern first but didn't know about the wyvern aggro so got nothing, time to head back to SE

[@woodchup]

you can travel faster on the tek skiff if you go up high and then quickly go down- its wings stretch out-when you go higher and it goes faster- if you time it right you can get low but still have those wings stretched out you'll need to give it a few goes to get the right position to fly down to however: if you go too fast - dinos don't render in so you can fly right past the dodorex

[@cheerubebayonettaholopaine2638]

havent played ark on official for around almost 4 years. but ill never forget the incident, when i first met the dodorex. it was by accident and killed my favourite rex. ah, good old times 🤣

[@fertileplanet7756]

3:10 I would like to say that a maewing may also be good (if you can transfer it from lost island, fjordur, and genesis to other servers)

[@FriendlyKat]

I totally agree that they need to add a beacon, or a marker or SOMETHING to indicate where it is. Or an area it may have spawned it, if they don’t wanna give it away directly! Just narrow it down PLEASE Wildcard! I’ve wasted, as I’m sure many others have, so much time trying to find this thing. It should be very simple to find, fun to fight, and all that. Maybe give us more time too? I’ve had to slow the night time down to 0.5 sometimes just so I can have time to look for the damn thing, and even then, sometimes I still don’t find it! I’ll have to try this method. Thanks for showing this method! It’s very clever and a shame it has to be done to find a single boss. I’ve watched some of your other tip videos, but never subbed. Consider myself subbed now. I’ve read some common spots it *may* more likely spawn at is Carno Island (the top right island of the map), south of the volcano, and in “Any gravestone that’s spawned on The Island”, which doesn’t really narrow it down. Hope you all find your Dodorex!

I wish it could act more like a phoenix. Like, you'll find a pile of bones and feathers somewhere and that'll be where it'll spawn.

I feel as if the marker is a good idea but too easy I think it should mark a 2 by 2 of squares to show its general location.

[@soaponarope8995]

This is my first event was super excited for weeks but now that it's dropped it's pretty disappointing

[@jayg2580]

To find it solo you gotta have a bit of luck, best to have a team searching their own sections of the map. As far as killing it solo an imprinted giga with over 700 melee and a 124 saddle can do it. On official I've seen them spawn everywhere but the tops of tall mountains.

Found mine halfway up the side of the blue ob mountain. Made quick work of him with a giga and Deinonychus crew.

Don’t everyone thinks that the Dodo Rex and Dodowyvern looks so fluffy and soft with all the feathers?

[@MetaLatias5]

I don't remember if it's just an S+ thing or not, but I use the Dino Scan feature of the Tek Transmitter to find out the coordinates of the Dodorex as soon as it spawns at midnight You'll need several Tek Transmitters if you're in Singleplayer, but it's the quickest way of finding out where the Dodorex is that I can think of

[@bobthebuilder5213]

Even in single player u can do it with just one transmitter by enabling or disabling hibernation (I don't exactly remember which one) in the launch options for ark & it searches the whole map,though be warned it could make the game unstable,atleast it did for me,maybe bcoz I got a freaking 9 year old pc too lol.

[@greenninjaihyt5461]

How to really fight the dodo Rex, 1. Don’t be playing on any servers, be playing on your own non dedicated. 2. Wait for 23:57 on the 3rd day 3. Exit and turn “night time speed” all the way down (it’s under advanced) 4. Get your managarmr and creatures in cryopods and spend the next half hour searching 5. Decryo your Giga and kill it. (This works better when you have multiple people with gigas so you can have more than one out and not cause cryo sicknes)

[@jarrodgrunke7430]

Love ya noobs, ive killed in once between last year and this year. However I've found it 4 times and was unable to kill because it ran out of time. Personally I think it should spawn ever night. Besides only having around 12 minutes to find and kill the island is incredibly dark and foggy compared to other maps.

This event has become the bane of my existence. I can't find the dodorex to save my life, and my depression gets a little worse every time i see "the dodorex has fled" hahah. I also did manage to find the dodowyvern yesterday, and mid battle.. it completely despawned. The dodowyvern, the wyvern zombies, the moon, meteorites, etc. GONE.

A dodrex spawned like 20 to 30 meters away from my base

[@msdyks9000]

Yeah, I just simply spawned it in cause I really don't have much time lately and it is about the same. At first I used two simple gigas and two good carnos and some turrets to test out, then after it failed a bit and they took only half of its health, I avanged them and got all my trexs and other gigas and only my last two carnos died. I had 11 trexs, 4 gigas (for safety) and others. Even mammoths and all that I had came accidently along XD But I would say 4 good gigas and 4 good carnos should do it easily, I tried it out too. So either with every single dino you have orrrr a few that are good with health and damage (bleed especially like them carnos). Or trap it for a bit and let them turrets get it from a save distance

Easy for pve yes, but if you have bases and turrets it's not so easy to fly close to the ground.
