By then I've built a water filtration machine at my main base, and if I'm feeling ambitious, I can build another one at my forward base, powered by a nuclear reactor and a bioreactor (or use any combination you want with power transmitters). Then I take the Prawn the final part of the way with 2 grappling arms and the jet pack to spiderman through the cavern (don't forget to pack the drill arm with you). There's a spot right by an alien research center which you'll eventually find that has no hostiles and a huge skeleton, and an area around a tree cove which is quite pretty, again with no hostiles. I ended up building a base in the safe part of the Lost River. I was nervous like you about the Cyclops. There's no need to bring food or water, because there's plenty on the ship.

I like grabbing 4 carryalls, every nutrient block and battery/powercell I can find, plus the posters and the stuffed toy plus ball cap. It takes a little longer, but it's not that big of a deal. I usually slip right through undetected into the aurora with the sea moth, this is the first time I ever had a cyclops built before I went there. I just can't get over this feeling that I am so much more vulnerable to leviathans now in my cyclops(I know that's the point of the updates) and since I'm playing on hardcore it's a very big risk. Ever since the Cyclops can get beatup from sea creatures, how do you feel about it? Late game it's clearly no choice because you must go deep, but in areas where the Sea moth can still go do you generally prefer it, the cyclops or prawn suit?

I could build a few torpedos for either but I have no experience with using those.

Quick note that I'm not too far into the game yet so my Seamoth does NOT have the defense perimeter upgrade and my Cyclops has no upgrades whatsoever. The cyclops also has the advantage of a MUCH larger storage, which would prevent me from having to take 2 trips to the aurora(it has loads of cells, batteries, food, etc) Sure I can take more hits, but I would still have to risk going in the water to repair it if a reaper is beating on me. Whereas the Cyclops clearly is more durable, but I feel like a sitting duck slowly floating out into an area with loads of reapers. The Seamoth will get 2 shotted by a reaper no doubt, but I feel like the Sea moth is far more agile, able to slip into the smaller cracks around aurora and far less likely to be detected. The cyclops seems like the clear winner at first glance, but after thinking about it more I'm not so sure. Either I load the seamoth into the cyclops and take that, or I just go solo with seamoth. Basically I can't decide which ship I want to go with. I have been having weird mixed feeling before I go to the Aurora. I'm about to visit the aurora and the more dangerous biomes now(blood kelp, mountains, dunes, etc).

I recommend reading the other thread for some comments on how to avoid/escape the Dead Zone, and potentially also voice your feedback on its current state.So in my hardcore file that I started recently, I just got to the point where I have built my seamoth and cyclops. The leviathans spawn because you're in that area, and will immediately despawn as soon as you leave, which is the only condition where they will actually go away, as they do not have patrol routes. Suffice to say, that's a special case scenario. There's a discussion about this and its mechanics (and how fair/unfair they are) back a little ways on the forum ( link).

That's because you've gone off the edge of the map, into what's called the "Dead Zone". Why 4 ghost leviathans at the same time it's unfair. The 4 leviathans bump my cyclops and keep circling it and being close to me without going awayĪfter about 2-3 minutes of this ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ they all become hostile and I die very very fast.

All my lights had already been turned off earlier.ġ ghost leviathan becomes 2, then 3, then 4. I tried to go back 3 times, the same exact ♥♥♥♥ happened every time:Īs soon as I get near, 1 ghost leviathan appears. Okay all this ♥♥♥♥ is so so so wrong at least where I lost my cyclopse. Originally posted by CrazyGoblin:It's possible they'll get one more hit in on you if they're already in the windup, but they will lose aggro almost immediately and just start to wander off.
