*Quick side note about Silent Running mode: it actively drains your battery reserve even when you aren't moving, so DO NOT have it switched on non-stop.
That being said though, remember your priority is to RUN RUN RUN so if you feel you need to push it nonstop then do so - you can deal with the fires and other damages once you're safe. Speaking of fires - running the ship in Flank for too long (20-30 seconds) overexerts the engine and can cause it to catch fire, so if possible only gun the throttle for 10-15 second bursts then give it a second or two to cool down when you're running in Flank. Do NOT try to fix things up when you're still in the middle of running - the only exception being to quickly flip on the automatic fire suppression if you happen to have it installed. Once you're safe (meaning sonar is clear and you have no reason to believe you're being chased any more) then do a damage assessment - put out any fires and repair any hull breaches you have. That might distract it for a little bit but it's not a permanent solution, you still need to RUN. If you're having trouble getting away then consider launching a creature decoy (btw, always have a creature decoy sitting ready in the tube just in case). There's nothing you can really do to kill or hurt it, just do your best to escape. If the Leviathan sees you anyway (meaning, if the sonar blip turns red and/or you're being actively attacked) then RUN. If you see any threats (yellow blips) on your sonar display then seriously consider rigging for silent running*. When you're in a high-risk area try to act stealthily - if you're in your Cyclops then reduce your throttle to slow and try to stay low to the ground or hug any nearby rockfaces. The Leviathans aren't 100% random: they spawn in specific biomes and they're only supposed to patrol a set area.
Seriously, that's the intended response you're supposed to have to Leviathans - try to avoid detection if possible but if they DO see you then get away as fast as you can. I was attacked by it when exploring around the floating island.Run. One of them roams quite close to the surface. The floating island floats above the Grand Reef that houses 2 ghost leviathans. However don't say there are no leviathans anywhere near the floating island. Which is right next to the mountains biome. All this time I thought he was talking about the underwater islands. thats the mountain island reaper leviathans are nowhere near the floating island and the only reaper you have to worry about is the one on the east side of the island "Unless it glitches in to the mountain cave that can happen sometimes"īut seriously idk why people are like "theres leviathans near the floating island" really the closest one is about 350 meters away in both distance and depth thats really nowhere near there But if you stay at the floating islands you are mostly safe.Īlso to the person saying that adult ghost leviathans are only present in the void: That's because the floating islands are right next to the mountains biome.
