Harvestable Plant

Acidic Raion Colony Subnautica 2 image
Harvestable Plant

Coral Reef caves

Acidic Raion Colony

Early acid pouches for Basic Batteries and first-hour crafting.

Check shallow cave walls below the lifepod before committing to longer resource runs.

Necrolei Cyst Subnautica 2 image
Harvestable Plant

Deep reef shelves

Necrolei Cyst

Biological reagent for Strong Acid and several Biomod chains.

Mark cyst clusters on repeatable routes; they are more valuable than one-off decoration.

Hazard Flora

Angel Comb Subnautica 2 image
Hazard Flora

Thermal approach route

Angel Comb

Progression scan tied to heat survival and volcanic exploration.

Bring the Sonic Resonator before trying to clear surrounding bloom growth.

Lucifer Rotsac Subnautica 2 image
Hazard Flora

Dark cave pockets

Lucifer Rotsac

Potential toxic-region marker and warning sign for new routes.

Treat dense rotsac patches as a signal to slow down and scan before harvesting.

Whip Gorgon Subnautica 2 image
Hazard Flora

Crag Canyons

Whip Gorgon

Current-break cover and collision hazard around tight canyon turns.

Avoid hugging walls when predators are active; whip clusters can trap escape paths.

Mimic Pylon Subnautica 2 image
Hazard Flora

Alien structure zones

Mimic Pylon

Possible decoy landmark near scan-heavy ruins.

Confirm with Scanner before assuming a pylon is a navigation marker.

Habitat Flora

Plate Coral Subnautica 2 image
Habitat Flora

Coral Reef

Plate Coral

Navigation landmark and early organic material source.

Use bright coral shelves as return markers when swimming without a beacon.

Jelly Lei Subnautica 2 image
Habitat Flora

Mid-depth reef

Jelly Lei

Visual cue for jelly-lifeform territory and dim cave entrances.

Pairs well with passive route mapping because its glow is visible from a distance.

Cage Gorgon Subnautica 2 image
Habitat Flora

Old Habitat route

Cage Gorgon

Shelter-like growth around safe base approaches.

Useful for describing cave mouths and colonist structure entrances.

Resource Node

Titan Rockbore Subnautica 2 image
Resource Node

Axum Quarry

Titan Rockbore

Geological marker for mineral-heavy terrain.

Use these formations to separate ore-farming routes from story routes.

Copper Wall Node Subnautica 2 image
Resource Node

Starter caves

Copper Wall Node

Copper source for Basic Battery, Copper Wire, and first electrical recipes.

Prioritize nodes within oxygen-safe loops before chasing deeper deposits.

Sulfur Vent Cluster Subnautica 2 image
Resource Node

Thermal Vents

Sulfur Vent Cluster

Sulfur route for Repair Tool and Strong Acid alternatives.

Wait until heat protection is available unless collecting the shallow starter pieces.
