Dodic not spawning on mountains now?
I have been having many issues trying to find some. I cleared herbivor island many times and have seen no dodics on the island and i have been running around the mountains but have not seen any there as well. Where has everyone been seeing them?

Mountain spawns seem borked for now, almost no spawns. Also had trouble finding decent doedic and anky because of that.

I have seen several on the Volcano. I just killed some lower level ones. I believe I also saw in red woods.

found a ton of anky on herby island. So i guess if i seen a dodic of any level i need to get for now.

Herby has not been kind to me so far. A ton a brontos, a bunch of phiomia. Ankys are all level 5-15, far too low.

If playing SP add the mod Custom Dino Levels, then in the console " ~ " (default) type in destroywilddinos wait about 10-15 minutes for the world to populate, and you should have a higher end level spread, where the majority of the spawns are 75+.

Also helps to hop on a flyer and just cover most of the map to pop in those areas and let the spawns populate.

This has helped me tons and the mod is not really game breaking, just changes the leveling curve to be higher levels.

i am weary of the destroy dinos command as i have used it once already and it took several real hours for dinos to start spawning again. On the plus side i was able to fly around the whole map for hours picking up loot crates with no worries.

I have seen a ton of doedic on the redwood beaches, not the mountains, they seem very common on the lower regions now.

The red wood is were i finally found a couple. The mountains are kind of a pain now, not much of anything on them and climbing them on foot is a real pain.
Looks like they might have reduced mountain spawns overall. Found consistent number of raptors/doeds/argys on mountain tops, but almost nothing around the slopes except the very base.

Yes, Doedicurus spawns seemed effed at the moment. I thought it was just me. I spent 3 hours yesterday scouring every Dodic spawn spot I could remember from Evolved to no avail.

It appears that way. In Evolved, I always thought the number of mountain spawns was unrealistically high. With Ascended, the devs appear to have gone too far in the other direction. The sides of mountains now seem desolate.

Doedicurus does not spawn on herbivore island. Check the mountains and parts of the redwoods.

If you're on "the Island" ? , i often cross doedicurus on the last beaches before the snow biome (W/NW), in around 37 Lat, 8 Long... if they're not there, kill everything in the vinicity (to make others creatures spawn, maybe doedis), go a little farest , just a little inside the snow biome (to make the respawning reset in the zone) and go back to see, repeat eventually, but it's sure, it's a zone of doedis spawn.

Edit : and if you're asking where this or that creature spawn, this is a great tool, to know where, on the left you have "creature", choose the one you want...
