About

The Beta Megapithecus is the intermediate difficulty version of the Megapithecus boss, sitting between the easier Alpha and harder Gamma variants in the boss tier structure. It is classified as a Boss-type creature with the entity ID Gorilla_Character_BP_Medium_C and displays in-game under the name tag Megapithecus (Beta).

Admins can reference the entity ID when spawning or managing this creature through server commands, such as forcing a boss encounter for testing purposes or troubleshooting arena behavior. Because it is a Boss-type, standard taming mechanics do not apply, and it is intended solely for combat encounters.

This creature is part of the base game content with no DLC requirement, so it is available on any server without additional content packs.
