Doeds never die?
How do you kill a med-high level wild doed? I've seen packs of 10+ raptors, sabres, and args attacking a doed but it just goes into its shell...and lives again.

Unless Im on my 200+ rex I can never get the killing blow. Is there some trick I'm missing?

I've seen alphas kill them in the wild even while they're in the shell, but that's about it. Don't think anything else would be able to kill it unless its a one shot.

The easiest way is to hit it let it ball up....stop hitting it back up give it a few and it will open up still hurt....hit again...rinse repeat.....if you keep attacking it will just stay balled up

Behavior
If attacked up close it will roll in to a protected shell Which will lower the damage you do to it majorly

You can get them to "uncurl" by backing away and attacking from range.

Once it balls up use trang arrows, and keep firing took around 70 arrows to knock out a lvl 56 and then we beat the ♥♥♥♥ out of there doed

3000% melee damage rex... Thats all I say. I 1 shot a 120 the other day so its not hard to kill them.

Other than that if I want them gone grab a quetz drop it in a ocean and attack it a few times It curles up and suffocates.

I've seen doedics tank some pretty impressive stuff. However, the one thing I see kill them time and time again is high level scorpions. If you're trying to kill it start as if you were attempting to tame it. Knock it out, then stab it with a pike or sword.

tranqs are the answer
when sleeping they don't curl up right?

All that I ask is for doeds to be killable by extended barrages of Plant X attacks. Every few game-days my base which sits along the bay just west of the most north-east mountain sees a sharp increase in the Doed population and they ALWAYS, as if intentional, find their way into my plant x defenses and my only solutions are to leave the area for a half hour or so, turn off all my plants and punch the doed so it chases me into the water where I drown it, or you put your entire base and neighborhood at risk by taming a Giga which kill them while balled up.
The other night I decided to hatch an argent and a couple Ovi's and right after they hatched, the plant x began a non stop 4 hour barrage at a single doed, driving me up the wall .
