AI Analysis
Overview
A Ranch-oriented Pal, available from mid-game onward. Its role is to be placed at the livestock ranch to gather materials, and the yield isn't affected by work speed.
Placed at the livestock ranch, it yields Ice Organ.
The basic move is to keep it fixed as Farming livestock, tapping it as a steady material source. Prioritize keeping up hunger and SAN over work speed. Obtainable in the mid-game, so time your pickup for when you're rotating your base lineup or party.
AvailabilityMid-GameWild Lv 30–41
- Ranch
- Low Upkeep
Strengths
- Food 1 is in the lightest bracket (2 or less), so it barely adds to feed costs at the base
Cautions
- Base stat total of 275 is in the bottom 25% bracket (330 or less), so it's not suited as a main combat unit
- Defense 70 is in the bottom 25% bracket (80 or less), leaving it vulnerable to hits

Recommended passives
Combat
To build Mau Cryst for combat, prioritize damage passives such as Legend and Musclehead. Adding Ice Emperor on top is recommended to further boost the Ice moves it can use at matching element.
Base
To build Mau Cryst for base work, stack passives like Swift and Diet Lover that speed up trips to the feed box and slow hunger loss. Work-speed boosts do little for ranch output, so keep them low priority.
Also worth adding
Mau Cryst isn't nocturnal, so it sleeps at night and work stops. If you want it running around the clock, Insomnia is worth a slot.
Drops (Defeat / Butcher)
Butchering a Pal you caught yields the same items. Butchered Pals will be gone for good.
