Titanium

Starter construction material behind Survival Multitool, Scanner prep, and the Habitat Builder chain.

Glass

Quartz-to-Glass crafted material that gates first-base windows, Scanner rooms, and Moonpool prep.

Copper

Drives Basic Battery, Copper Wire, Scanner, and early base power planning during the first hour.

Quartz

Shallow starter mineral that feeds Glass and supports Scanner / first-base material prep.

Silver

More early-region areas after Hotfix 2; tied to Air Tank planning and Rebreather depth progression.

Troilite

Late-region material after Hotfix 2; feeds Metal Farm, Mangalloy, and Alien Power Plant route context.

Interior Wall

Base-building cost changed in Hotfix 3: Interior Walls now cost one quarter of the previous price.

Atacamite

East-northeast Alien Ruins lead under ~250 m, used for repair and upgrade route planning.

Void Leviathan

Open-water apex tracker for the deepest routes; evasion-first planning, not combat.

Collector Leviathan

Sparse Plains apex leviathan flagged in dev vlogs; route, aggro, and audio cues stay version-sensitive.

Deepwing Brooder

Deep-route leviathan tracker; lure, line-of-sight, and aggro behavior under active patching.

Hammerhead

Low-risk diver scan, but Tadpole state now matters: unpiloted vehicles are no longer attacked.

Marrowbreach

Predator tracker with higher damage and less frequent attacks after the latest tuning pass.

Nibblershark

Predator tuning changed perception, movement, circling time, Multitool sensitivity, and damage.

Opal Prowler

Mid-route stalker tracker with patch-aware notes on aggro range and pickup planning.

Waterslug

Smaller fauna tracker for scan, lure, and ecosystem context around starter routes.
