Sulfur Saurian

Sulfur Saurian is an Enemy in Dragon's Dogma.

Overview[]

Sulfur Saurians are a subspecies of the spear wielding Saurian with dark green and yellow striped skin. They are almost always cloaked, even within close proximity. Their spit can cause torpor.

Like regular Saurians, their defense sharply decreases once the tail is cut off, which also disables their cloaking ability. Unlike common Saurians they are also susceptible to fire, whilst being relatively resistant to ice; also unlike their lesser cousins they are immune to Torpor, and vulnerable to Poison.

Sulfur Saurian habitat

Sulfur Saurians have the ability to camouflage themselves, so listen closely for their growl. Saurians sustain more damage if attacked when caught off guard (or if they're asleep)

For the foe knowledge flags for Sulfur Saurian see the saurian section in the Bestiary.
