About

The Ferox (Large) is the transformed, aggressive form of the Ferox, a fantasy-type creature introduced in the Genesis DLC. When a Ferox consumes Element, it shifts into this larger, powerful state, distinct enough from its small form that it has its own entity ID, Shapeshifter_Large_Character_BP_C.

Because the large form is a separate character entry, admins targeting it for spawning, kill commands, or behavior testing must use the Large entity ID rather than the base Ferox entry. Use Shapeshifter_Large_Character_BP_C with SpawnDino or similar admin commands when you specifically need the combat form.

Note that this creature is exclusive to Genesis maps. On servers without that DLC content enabled, the spawn will fail or the creature will not appear in the wild naturally.
