Crafting: Battery (Copper, 2x Mushrooms) Scanner tool (Battery, Titanium).

Minimum Resources Required: 1x Copper 1x Titanium 2x Acid Mushrooms.You should aim to get these on one breath - less than 45 seconds. The first two limestone outcrops broken will always be one and then the other, but if you get a Copper from your first, and there is a Metal Salvage closer than a 2nd outcrop, that can be collected instead for the 4 Titanium. Collect at least 2 Acid Mushrooms, 1 Copper, and 1 Titanium. When first starting, resetting for spawn is not as essential, but as you learn landmarks, you may want to reset until you know you're in a location you're comfortable with. Spawn locations are random within the area of the Safe Shallows biome. In terms of locations visited, the maps here may help: ġ: Leave the lifepod by the bottom hatch (ladder animation is too slow) and check your surroundings. Generally, working more than one step ahead is not recommended. Once you are more comfortable, you may wish to perform some of the later steps earlier if you have the resources required, but be mindful of power requirements for crafting.

In each section there will be a list of the minimum resources required, and the crafting to be performed.

Something of a run sheet to refer to as you watch a run to perhaps shed some light on what the runner is doing, and when, and therefore better learn the resources required. The intention of this guide is to hopefully explain some of the bits behind the runs that may often be overlooked when in the moment. Generally to get an idea of the best movements and routing, watching other runs - especially those high up the leaderboards - is always advised, as that will give the visual aid to follow in-game. Advisory: this is not an exhaustive guide or an in-depth tutorial.
