Gargoyle

Where to catch the Gargoyle

The Gargoyle lives in Hell (zone 11 of 17), in the front part of the zone. It is number 1 of 4 in the Hell index. A full-strength throw needs roughly 2,150 – 2,450 Throw Power to land in Hell.

Foods that land here: Ember Lemon, Amber Bacon ($18Qi), Lava Steak ($120Qi). A higher-tier food pushes the roll toward the rarer end of the Hell list, so the newest food you own is always the best bait.

Any throw that lands in the front part of the zone can produce it. If you are hunting it for the index, lower your throw strength with the gear icon until the food lands on that spot – distance inside a zone decides which animals can come.

Is it worth keeping?

• A plain Gargoyle earns 9.7x a plain Mosasaurus, the best animal from Deep Waters.
• The best plain earner here is the Imp ($50Qa/s), 1.7x this one.
• The first animal in Ancient Ruins, the Microraptor, makes 40x as much – once your throws reach Ancient Ruins, replace it.
• Keep it longer only if it rolled a strong mutation or size (see the table below) or you need it for the index.

Gargoyle income by mutation and size

A plain Gargoyle makes $30Qa/s. Mutations and sizes multiply that number, and the two stack. The table below multiplies the plain income by the multipliers I have measured (Gold ×1.5, Diamond ×3, Emerald ×5, Ruby ×10, Rainbow ×20; Big ×2, Large ≈×4.3, Huge ≈×9, Colossal ≈×18.5, Gigantic ≈×37). Treat the size columns as estimates – real catches land a little above or below. With the 2x Cash gamepass every number doubles.
