ICARUS POSE UPGRADE

If your luck runs dry hunting nearby bears for a Fatty T-bone, you can try hunting polar bears in the Southern Glacier. Along the way, you can harvest the meat and plants you will need for a robust food supply for the trip to each pod and back. The nearest lake with sufficient supply is the old triangle lake in L12/L13. You will need to grab four sponges from the Forest lakes to craft the Oxygen Restoration Pastes. Sponges are restricted to just a few lakes and seem to be randomly distributed, so this cluster was a good find There are several nearby caves for ore, and bears spawn frequently in G14 and G15. An ideal base location is near the lake in G14. This mission takes you into both Desert Biome regions from the Forest region. Leather Backpack or workshop Survival Backpack.

Stack of Cooked Meat or a cooked prime meat, or Health Restoration Pastes for healing.Containment Unit Catalytic Materials (same for each):.

ICARUS POSE UPGRADE

For Hard Mode, it might be a good time to upgrade your desert armor from Cloth to Naneo, if available. The regular scorpion attacks are as strong as bear and polar bear swipes. Include a good stack of cooked meat or Health Restoration Pastes for healing. The scorpion poison attack is very strong, so a stack of Anti-poison Tonics or Pills may come in handy. If on Hard Mode, consider crafting a strong bow and arrow set (Caveworm/ Recurve and Flint, or better) or spear ( Iron or better). Scorpions can move quickly, their carapace is very strong, and their critical point is very small (though not impossible to hit, with practice). The spacious cave on the shore of the lake in G14 makes for a suitable base… as long as you can share with the caveworms The pods also require a Cooked Fatty T-bone crafted from meat that drops from bears and polar bears, so avoid Easy Mode (which reduces their spawn rates) if possible. This includes Electronics, so Tier 3 technology will need to be crafted. This mission requires the prospector to harvest and craft materials used to prepare the containment units (or “pods”). The 11th scorpion emerges after the pod explodes and the objective is completed. Scorpions will continue to emerge until the pod is empty, regardless of how quickly they are killed.

Notes: Locate each scorpion as it emerges by following the skittering sound it makes.

It will automatically detect and fully aggro on one prospector. Behavior: One new scorpion will emerge from the sand near the pod every 10 seconds.Attacks: One-pincer swipe, two-pincer smash, taunt (raises pincers and shakes), charge-up tail stab (causes damage and strong poison x2).Drops: Bone, soft meat, stringy meat (rare), carapace can be chopped for bone.Critical points: Eye near the top-front of the carapace.Health: 200-300 (approximately, medium mode).Scorpion (x11 per containment unit aka “pod”).Remember the transition cave behind the lake in M9 for a shortcut to the northern containment unit Boss Details Activate the (north) Desert Canyons containment unit and destroy the experiment.Activate the (east) Desert containment unit and destroy the experiment.Harvest and prepare catalytic materials for the 2 containment units.Approximate time to complete: 3-4 hours.Ironically, this mission is more concealment than recovery.Ĭheck out this level guide to get some insider knowledge of what you will have to craft, and what awaits you inside those containment units. In CONCEALMENT: Recovery you will grind up some catalytic materials (for rapid scorpion growth) and load them into each pod to activate and destroy the mutated specimens within (vicious, eviscerating scorpions). So, they want one of your prospectors to drop in and erase any evidence of these exotics-mutated disasters (giant venomous scorpions). Sinotai has… misplaced a couple of biological containment units (scorpion breeders). Orbital: Workshop & Currencies Menu Toggle.
