The vast world ofDragon’s Dogma 2is full of wandering monsters and beasts lurking in the dark, waiting patiently to take you by surprise. One notorious lizard-like creature called Saurians can be found on the roads and inside the dark tunnels in the Vermund region.

Saurians wield a spear and mostly do a couple of poke attacks at you. The tail is their weak spot, and cutting it off will chip away most of their health. Slicing the tail off also drops a rare item, which otherwise, has a low chance of looting from Saurian. This guide discusses how to get theSaurian Tailfrom this enemy type.

How To GetSaurian Tail

You mustcut off the tail of a Saurian monster to get theSaurian tailin the game. Using a sharp blade, such as a Fighter’s small sword or a Warrior’s large-sized blade on a Saurian’s tail will cut it off in a few hits. After that, you can loot this item and get theSaurian tailitem in your inventory.

TheSaurian’s tail is one of the resource materialsthat you cancombine to create other concoctions. You can also sell theSaurian tailto merchants if you need some gold to buythe best armorandpowerful weaponsin the game.

Saurian Monster Locations

There are many places in the Vermund where you will come across theselizard-looking creatures with a spear in their right hand. You canencounter them in the woods west of Vernworthas you continue to go tothe Sacred Arbor.

However, one dark tunnel-like locationeast of the Checkpoint Rest Town contains more than four Saurian enemies. This is the same road that connects the pathway leading to the Ancient Battleground.

Once you are in the dark tunnel, lightthe lamp so you may see the Saurians clinging to the walls. Otherwise, they can take you by surprise by launching a spear-smack attack on you.

If youhave a blade or sword-category weapon, consistently hit the Saurian’s tail to cut itoff. If you do not happen to have a sharp weapon with you, command your party members to attack Saurians. There is a good chance some of the attacks land on the tail and cut it off, resulting in theSaurian tailitem.
