In Fallout 76, the Mega Sloth is a mutated Megatherium. These creatures are typically passive and seldom act aggressively unless provoked. According to lore, it's believed that the initial wave of Mega Sloths in Fallout 76 were escapees from the Garrahan Estate who were exposed to radiation following the Great War. This guide offers quick overviews of Mega Sloth locations, along with tips on spotting them in forests and maximizing their utility to complete Weekly Challenges.
Fallout 76: Best Garden Gnome Locations
Garden Gnomes, mischievous statues in Fallout 76, often appear in awkward and unexpected locations; here's where to find them.
Best Location to Find Mega Sloth
- Southern Belle Motel (The Mire)
- Tanagra Town (The Mire)
- Sunday Brothers’ Cabin (The Mire)
- Dabney Homestead (The Mire)
- Watoga Shopping Plaza (Cranberry Bog)
- Huntersville (Savage Divide)
The primary habitat of Mega Sloths is the Mire region, situated east of Appalachia. Players are likely to encounter a group of Mega Sloths hanging from trees located to the south of Southern Belle Motel. Other notable spots for encountering Mega Sloths include the abandoned areas around Tanagra Town, Sunday Brothers’ Cabin, and Dabney Homestead.
Players are also likely to encounter Mega Sloths in the Cranberry Bog area. However, the forests in the Mire are the most probable locations for finding them.
If Mega Sloths are not present in the mentioned locations, try server hopping. Simply return to the main menu and re-enter the game to check these areas again.
How to Take a Camera Picture of a Sloth
To complete the Weekly Challenge "Take a Camera Picture of a Mega Sloth," players need to unlock and repair the ProSnap Deluxe Camera. Once they have this item in their inventory, they must locate a live or deceased Mega Sloth and capture a picture using the ProSnap Deluxe Camera. It's important to note that using the game's photo mode option will not fulfill this quest.
For those interested in unlocking the ProSnap Deluxe Camera, it's achieved by completing the "Suspicious Person" quest. This quest initiates once the player constructs a Terminal in their CAMP and activates Automated Alerts. The initial camera discovered by the player requires repair, which can be conducted at any Tinker’s Workbench found across the overworld.
When capturing a snapshot of the Mega Sloth, ensure that the creature’s name appears at the top-right corner of the image. This can be achieved by aiming the center of the camera grid directly at the creature. If this condition is not met, the picture will not qualify for the Weekly Challenge.
How to Tame a Mega Sloth
To domesticate a Mega Sloth, players need to have a Level Three Animal Friend perk card. This perk enables the player to pacify the giant sloth, granting them an opportunity to "tame" it. Once tamed, the Mega Sloth will be added to the player's current active CAMP. However, it's important to note that the sloth will physically walk to the player's CAMP and won't instantly appear there.
