Meaning plenty of people have simply not tried or made getting the submersibles a bigger priority.

There's been threads asking where to park their cyclops to get in. Going into the aurora isn't as self-evident a goal as we might think it is. The large resource deposits spawn further out (except titanium in the crash zone) and walking to them would be excruciatingly slow in a prawn. There's no reason to build or get in a prawn before getting a cyclops to drive it around in. The leviathan will do a few attacks and get frustrated - ghosts are more persistent than reapers.I'm wondering because looking at the global achievements stats, more people have gotten the Cyclops achievement than the Prawn Suit achievement. You can dance with leviathans by using a wide strafe-turn pattern, being sure to keep their angle to you at an oblique (so you may have to change depth or move forward to correct a shallow circle).You will never get nibbled by a leviathan if you follow this routine, and it's 100% effective with a seaglide behind the Aurora scanning cyclops parts, gathering scrap, and looting equipment boxes. When scanning, strafe+turn to create a wide circle.

(left-up-right-down is easy to remember and never has you do an up-down into harms way) This constantly keeps you moving out of any target zone it may line up on. When traveling, strafe left/right, up/down as you travel.While free swimming you need good timing but with a seamoth or seaglide you only need to strafe a few meters and it will blow right past you. When charging, they have a very limited ability to alter their course laterally, meaning they can't turn their head quickly. Leviathans are fairly agile when they are swimming around but when they decide to attack, they have a charge behavior. 'Egad! Behind the Aurora?' you say? 'There's big, noisy things back there!' you say? Either one will do, though you may also find these in the occasional wreck. Or you can visit the Coral Mushroom Forest (I suggest the western one) where they are also known to congregate. Go for the engine parts, stay for the bridge parts.

They can pop up inside the aurora, on the sunken islands wreck area, and in other rare spots but the rear of the Aurora has tons.īridge: Behind the Aurora.
