Condrocs are scavenging birds of prey native to Earth. Like real-life vultures they form into groups known as committees and feed on the corpses of other, already dead, creatures. They will still occasionally hunt and kill small prey such as Kuaka, however. Condrocs lack subspecies, instead being identified by their role.
Condroc Wings are guaranteed to drop from Condrocs when killed while Ayatan Stars only have a chance to be dropped.
Variants[]
Common Condroc[]
As their name implies, Common Condroc are the easiest type to find on the Plains of Eidolon. Their primarily carcass-based diet helps prevent disease epidemics in the local wildlife, though they are capable hunters if need be.
When captured via Conservation they will reward the following:
Perfect | Good | Bad |
---|---|---|
800 | 600 | 400 |
Rogue Condroc[]
Rogue Condrocs are uncommon birds found on the Plains of Eidolon. These condroc have abandoned their committees in favor of actively hunting prey, upsetting the ecosystem by destroying Kuaka and Mergoo nests.
When captured via Conservation they will reward the following:
Perfect | Good | Bad |
---|---|---|
1200 | 900 | 600 |
Emperor Condroc[]
The Emperor Condroc is quite rare, with a single one leading multiple condroc committees. It is unknown how an Emperor is chosen; whether at birth or by its own initiative. Despite their name, they can be either male or female.
When captured via Conservation they will reward the following:
Perfect | Good | Bad |
---|---|---|
1800 | 1350 | 900 |
Notes[]
- Condrocs can be seen flying above some parts of the Grineer Forest tileset but unlike when they appear on the Plains of Eidolon, they are purely decorative in these locations and cannot be killed or scanned.
- Common (simply known as "Condroc" on release) and Rogue Condroc were added in Update 22.0 (2017-10-12) with the Plains of Eidolon, with Emperor Condroc being added in Update 24.6 (2019-04-04).
- With this update the roles of the Common and Rogue Condroc seem to have been switched.
Trivia[]
- Condrocs are likely named after Condors, two species of carnivorous scavenger birds.
- they used to drop a pigment, Tower White. That was moved to kuva jester at some point
