Deposits of bone-stuff were cast into the moulds of fractured plates and ridges across the four-folk span of their gigantic self. They flatten under their own titanic weight, and teeth the size of fulcrete picks array their stonelike mouth.

Perfect
This article has information that is missing or not up to par.
Reason: There is no description of the frenzied mechanic, which can cause otherwise neutral sultan crocs to turn hostile.

The Sultan Croc is a highly dangerous foe encountered occasionally in Lake Hinnom and the Palladium Reef. It can close distance with enemies using its powerful charge attack, and its bite has a high chance to dismember limbs. Unprepared characters may find themselves reduced to a helpless, faceless torso in only a few rounds of combat.

Sultan Crocs may conceal themselves beneath the surface of the water, emerging to attack when a target draws close. While thusly concealed, they are still visible as a red dot on the minimap (or a green dot if you are friendly with unshelled reptiles).

Tips

This section is opinion-based. Your mileage may vary.
  • Due to the high danger presented by these foes, you may wish to use Sprint to flee from them and prepare yourself.
  • It is wise to carry one or more ubernostrum injector if you plan to face them in melee combat, so you can regenerate lost limbs.
  • You may wish to tinker up a freeze grenade mk III to render the Sultan Croc helpless, as their base cold resistance of -25 leaves them highly susceptible.
  • It is also effective to spawn clones of yourself using Temporal Fugue to distract the Sultan Croc so you are not torn asunder.
  • If you wish to avoid the issue, raise your reputation with unshelled reptiles until the Sultan Croc leaves you alone.
  • Because they can become frenzied without warning, it's best to give them a wide berth even if they display as friendly.
