Next, head to a kelp forest area in order to collect 2 Creepvine Seeds (if you come across two random Seaglide boxes along your path, you can short-cut the wreck and head straight to the forest). Seaglide boxes are identifiable as small boxes with a burn mark on their top side. Your best destination here to towards a wreck around the borders of the Safe Shallows as these are the most likely locations for Seaglide fragments boxes to spawn in. While the Scanner is building you can pick up the medkit off the opposite wall.Ģ: You can leave the lifepod when the scanner is just under 70% completed to save a small amount of time. Crafting: Battery (Copper, 2x Mushrooms) Scanner tool (Battery, Titanium).

Minimum Resources Required: 1x Copper 1x Titanium 2x Acid Mushrooms.

You should aim to get these on one breath - less than 45 seconds. The first two limestone outcrops broken will always be one and then the other, but if you get a Copper from your first, and there is a Metal Salvage closer than a 2nd outcrop, that can be collected instead for the 4 Titanium. Collect at least 2 Acid Mushrooms, 1 Copper, and 1 Titanium.

When first starting, resetting for spawn is not as essential, but as you learn landmarks, you may want to reset until you know you're in a location you're comfortable with. Spawn locations are random within the area of the Safe Shallows biome. In terms of locations visited, the maps here may help: ġ: Leave the lifepod by the bottom hatch (ladder animation is too slow) and check your surroundings. Generally, working more than one step ahead is not recommended. Once you are more comfortable, you may wish to perform some of the later steps earlier if you have the resources required, but be mindful of power requirements for crafting. In each section there will be a list of the minimum resources required, and the crafting to be performed. Something of a run sheet to refer to as you watch a run to perhaps shed some light on what the runner is doing, and when, and therefore better learn the resources required. The intention of this guide is to hopefully explain some of the bits behind the runs that may often be overlooked when in the moment. Generally to get an idea of the best movements and routing, watching other runs - especially those high up the leaderboards - is always advised, as that will give the visual aid to follow in-game. With the acquisition of the Cyclops and the Prawn Suit, the player is equipped to move from the Mid-Game to the Late Game phase of Subnautica.Advisory: this is not an exhaustive guide or an in-depth tutorial. A visual hint is provided to help the player find the entrance hatch at the bottom of the bow/front end of the sub. The Cyclops submarine is finally complete. You will need to ensure that it is placed in a sufficiently deep location – otherwise you’ll get a warning message and the Mobile Vehicle Bay will refuse to fabricate it.Īs the Cyclops is being fabricated in midair, the assistant gives some canned warnings about the skill required to pilot it. The cyclops is fabricated at the Mobile Vehicle Bay. The ingredients for fabricating a Cyclops are: Fabricating the Cyclops Submarine Gather Materials Needed for the Cyclops If you still need more of them, you’ll need to look for them scattered around outside of the Underwater Island Wreck. This is not guaranteed and most likely you will not get enough here to complete the blueprint. Finding the Cyclops Engine Blueprint Fragmentsĭuring your exploration of the Aurora, you may have already acquired some fragments for the Cyclops Engine Blueprint: They have a chance of spawning in the Aurora’s Cargo Bay as well as in the Aurora’s Prawn Bay. Again, a Seabase with a Scanner Room can be helpful in locating both kinds of fragments in this biome. Like the Hull, the fragments for the Cyclops Bridge Blueprint are most easily picked up in the Mushroom Forest Biome. Finding the Cyclops Bridge Blueprint Fragments Because the densely-packed Tree Mushrooms can make this area challenging to search, you may consider setting up a small Seabase with a Scanner Room in order to find them. The most convenient spot to gather the fragments needed for the Cyclops Hull Blueprint is in the Mushroom Forest biome, where they can be found scattered on the seabed. Finding the Cyclops Hull Blueprint Fragments Each of the 3 blueprints requires 3 fragments to complete. In order to construct the Cyclops you will need to gather fragments for 3 separate blueprints, and these fragments are spread across several locations in the map. It greatly enhances the player’s ability to explore and gather resources in more remote and deeper areas of the map. The Cyclops submarine is the largest submersible vehicle available to the player in Subnautica, and largely functions as a mobile seabase.
