Where to Find It
- High-threat encounters are most likely during deeper biome progression runs.
- Use known landmark loops and avoid blind dives into unknown caverns.
- If objective is materials, enter-collect-exit quickly instead of prolonged hovering.
How to Use It
- Always carry Repair Tool, med kit buffer, and power reserve.
- Pre-plan turnaround depth/time before entering risk corridor.
- Abort run early when visibility, damage, or navigation confidence drops.
Notes
Leviathan behavior and spawn pressure can change across updates; treat this as a strategy baseline, not immutable coordinates.
