Revenge of the Savage Planetfeatures unique and intriguing fauna across every region, offering a wide variety of creatures to lasso for your personal zoo. Among them are a handful of rare finds, known as S-rank animals. Capturing and researching these aliens comes with several perks, including new outfit colors and upgrade blueprints.
This guide covers the locations of all seven S-rank creatures inRevenge of the Savage Planet, along with tips on how to stun and capture each one efficiently.
S-Rank Creatures in Stellaris Prime
Alpha Raccoon
Alpha Raccoon is likely the easiest S-rank creature to catch. You’ll find several near the Teleporter in theSlarragon Forest on Stellaris Prime. However, be aware that trying to capture one will cause nearby Raccoons to turn hostile. It’s best to eliminate the surrounding aliens first before attempting to lasso the Alpha.
Hagnork
You’ll need to catch a Hagnork to complete one of theearly missions inRevenge of the Savage Planet. If you want extras for your personal zoo, there’s one that always respawns in theCliffs of Abaddoon—the same spot where you first encounter it during the campaign.
To catch a Hagnork, wait for it to roar, as its weak spot is its hard palate. When it opens its mouth, shoot the upper part of its mouth roof to stun it.
S-Rank Creatures in Xephyr
Alpha Vaperon
An Alpha Vaperon spawns just across the Teleporter inG’nortt’s High Risearea of Xephyr. To capture it, shoot its right knee three times to stun it before moving in with your lasso.
S-Rank Creatures in Zenethian Rift
Alpha Toxwin
An Alpha Toxwin spawns in the cave at theSummit of Ruinin the Peaks region of Zenethian Rift. To stun and capture it, shoot its belly button a few times. Since Toxwins are usually friendly at first, you’ll have a brief window to land a couple of shots before they turn aggressive.
The best time to hit an Alpha Toxwin’s weak spot is when it prepares to spit goop. During this moment, it exposes its belly, making the belly button much easier to target.
Armored Crusher
The crab-like creatures in the Zenethian Rift are tough to catch, as their weak spot is on their back. To stun an Armored Crusher, you’ll need to shoot its tail.
Taking the high ground can help you land clean shots whenever the Armored Crusher turns around. Alternatively, try jumping and shooting (bunny hopping) to hit the tail while airborne.
One of theupgrades inRevenge of the Savage Planetgrants you a stomping ability. you’re able to use this to crush an Armored Crusher’s hard shell, making it easier to capture or defeat.
S-Rank Creatures in Quasadron IX
Alpha Sluggator
There’s an underground area near the Teleporter in Savannah Lake. You’ll need to stomp the entrance to unlock it, but once opened, you can always find an Alpha Sluggator inside.
To catch an Alpha Sluggator,shoot its forehead. The tricky part is avoiding its tongue, as it will try to grab and pull you in. Be sure to dodge its attempts and avoid shooting while being pulled. Sluggators are fragile, and a few self-defense shots could accidentally kill the rare Alpha.
Lurid Striped Puffer
Just across from the underground area in Savannah Lake where the Alpha Sluggator spawns, you’ll find a pack of Lurid Stirped Puffers roaming around. To catch one, simply eliminate the rest of the pack and leave one alive. Once it’s alone, you’re able to lasso it without needing to stun it.
