About

The Gamma Defense Unit is a mechanical creature that serves as a boss-tier enemy in the gamma difficulty endgame encounter. It is tagged internally as the End Boss Tank (Gamma), distinguishing it from equivalent variants at other difficulty tiers.

Admins working with spawn commands or encounter scripting should use the entity ID EndTank_Character_BP_C to target this specific variant. Because it is a mechanical creature, resistances and taming mechanics tied to that creature type apply here, relevant when configuring damage multipliers or testing encounter balance on a private server.

This creature is part of the base game and does not require any DLC to appear in an encounter.
