Look in Headlands caves for edible Cobalt Sargent, and around stone formations for Imperial Strider and its naturally shed horns. Green Naga and Ebony Linter are poisonous raw: do not treat wetland plants as ready-to-eat food.
Plants: what is safe to use?
- Green Naga — marshes and lakes. Poisonous raw; needs processing.
- Ebony Linter — wetlands. Poisonous raw; a processed crafting resource.
- Cobalt Sargent — caves. Edible; tea ingredient with IM-X properties.
The survey says Green Naga and Ebony Linter need processing but supplies no recipe. Check the recipe shown in your game before using them. Cobalt Sargent is described as edible and a tea ingredient; the survey does not quantify its IM-X effect.
Wildlife around stone formations
- Imperial Strider — Headlands · stone cover. Cautious; naturally shed horns.
- Bronze Wox — Headlands · burrows. Skittish; packs may defend themselves; fur.
- Woodback Tortoise — Headlands. Docile and slow; an observation subject.
- Flux Beetle — Headlands. Harmless; an observation subject.
Imperial Strider sheds its horns naturally; the survey recommends collecting them when found. It does not provide a shedding timer. Bronze Wox may shelter in nearby burrows and defend itself as a pack.
Choose an exploration target
- Cave plant: identify Cobalt Sargent by its blue leaves; check the scanner before consuming an unfamiliar plant.
- Wetland material: find Green Naga or Ebony Linter, then read the required processing recipe.
- Shed horns: search around stone formations used by Imperial Strider and give the animal room.
- Observation: Woodback Tortoise and Flux Beetle are described as docile or harmless; their exact subregion is not specified.
These are suggested objectives based on the field survey, not a tested route or guaranteed material yield.
Prepare for mixed danger
The survey describes a region for experienced field teams, with stone formations and constructed remnants. Keep track of your return route and check immunity before longer trips. Exact access requirements, resource coordinates and safe encounter distances are not established here.
