In Subnautica, how do you harvest the Gaspods from the Gasopod creature?

I have only noticed these creatures doing two particular things: looking beautiful from afar, or being painful while up close. And now that I have a torpedo launcher, I need to harvest these little "gas pod" things to make the necessary Gas Torpedo ammo.

How do I harvest this? Because the gas explosion just looks like unselectable dust.



Best Answer

You swim near them, they then emit small yellow balls. If you are quick enough, you can grab those balls before they explode and harm you.

It is as simple as that. Get the Ultra Glide Fins so that you are fast, plus a Seaglide, and just provoke them to release the gas pods. Then grab them before they explode, and if you can't get all pods, run away quickly enough to not get damaged by the gas cloud.

With practice, this becomes fairly easy and quite safe.

How do you farm gas pods in Subnautica?

Gasopod eggs are located in the Crash Zone Mesas, the Dunes, or in the Safe Shallows. These eggs take one day to hatch and are green with little yellow dots here and there. You can use the egg for fuel since it has a 231 energy value or wait until it hatches to use the Gasopod, as this one has a 700 energy value.

Where are Gasopod eggs?

Research finds GasPods work best on blunt-back vehicles like hatchbacks or mini vans, Chess said, creating a low-pressure area behind a vehicle. \u201cIf you make a vehicle more aerodynamic, it will save fuel,\u201d she said.

Do gas pods work?

Furthermore the gas clouds deal somewhere between 39 and 42 damage per second to fauna, for a total of 500 to 555 damage per gas cloud, making them a surprisingly effective damage tool, given a target is held in place for the full duration. When fired, the Gas Torpedo will lock on to nearby creatures.
