About

The Alpha Megapithecus is the most powerful version of the Megapithecus boss, classified as a Boss-type creature. It is accessed through the game's boss summoning system rather than found roaming the open world. Its entity ID is Gorilla_Character_BP_Hard_C, which admins can use when referencing or spawning this specific variant via admin commands.

As a boss creature, it presents the greatest challenge among the Megapithecus variants and is intended for well-prepared, endgame tribes. Server admins should be aware that spawning it outside its intended arena context may produce unpredictable behavior, since boss creatures are designed to function within specific encounter spaces.

This creature is part of the base game and does not require any DLC. When setting up events, testing encounters, or adjusting server difficulty, use the entity ID Gorilla_Character_BP_Hard_C to target this alpha variant specifically and avoid confusion with the Gamma or Beta versions.
