Neophyte — Detailed Guide
The Neophyte is a hunter of the Lost faction in ASA's Lost Colony. It does not spawn in the wild like normal creatures. Instead it hunts you down, patrols for the
Lost King and goes after
Aureliax Eggs. It cannot be tamed, ridden or bred.
Where to find it
It shows up on Lost Colony as a patrol and guard for the Lost King, and it is sent after Aureliax Eggs.
Tips
- Tames: it takes greatly reduced damage from tamed creatures, so most of the work falls to you.
- Exceptions:
Gloon,
Gigadesmodus and the Gnashed effect of a
Thylacoleo still deal full damage. - Grab: it can grab players, so close range is risky. A small roofed metal trap plus a high-damage weapon such as an Ascendant shotgun is a common answer.
- Loot: it drops
Hide,
Raw Meat and
Neophyte Horns.
