FULL-SIZED Ghost Leviathan Now Spawns in Grand Reef!!!

VoxelVoxel Join Date: 2017-07-10 Member: 231713Members
For those of you who use experimental mode, careful venturing into the Grand Reef biome because a single full-sized ghost leviathan now spawns there. It does 84 damage per hit, making it deadlier than the reaper leviathan! This ghost leviathan is bigger and does 30 more damage per hit than its two juvenile counterparts in the lost river.

    Does it die like a Reaper to the Stasis rifle and thermal blade?

    I imagine it isn't finished yet, but what's it's behavior like? Does it spawn nearby the sea treaders?

    It actually spawned near the surface. The behavior is just like a reaper though.

    O lord why does this look to be near the steam vents before the entrance to Deep Grand Reef.

    My home base might be boned

    More deadly than the Reaper Leviathan? When you say "84 hit points per hit" do you mean to the player or a vehicle? Because if it's to the player then the Reaper is more dangerous because it is a one-shot kill.

    Are the junior leviathans in the Lost River in stable yet?

    If it works like the Reaper Leviathan, you will see it once and then never see it again. :)

    It is 84 damage to the player; the reaper only does 80 per hit, according to the wikia: http://subnautica.wikia.com/wiki/Reaper_Leviathan

    I'm pretty sure it's insta-kill. I'm gonna do a test on full health. I'm gonna stop playing until the final release and most of the lag is gone to do my start to finish Hardcore let's play.

    I stand corrected. Yes. It is 80 damage per hit. Slightly less intimidated.

    Seems kinda dumb to put it there.

    Its almost like They have decided They DON'T want the players to EXPLORE the game areas.

    That thing belongs out in the deep recesses at the ends of the maps.
    Not in areas where we actually have to go to play the game.
    smh

    Big beasties on the outskirts only is why right now about a third of the surface map is pointless because it's full of reapers and there's nothing to do/find there. It's a dilemma, but I hope the current experimental situation with the new leviathan means the devs have an idea for fair gameplay. I'm willing to give it a try.

    So that's my save ended. Can't wait to do a start to finish let's play on Hardcore mode on my channel.

    May want to change the thread title so you don't spoil this for anyone just passing through the forums.

    I voted for this. (there was a poll for it somewhere)

    No, that's basically the same. What about "Even more dangerous creatures?" as a small throwback to the update title?

    Really happy to see they are adding something to guard the floating island. Hoping that they do something similar with the mountain to limit access to the huge amounts of resources there, although at least the mountain doesn't get you infinite food.

    So it's dangerous to take the Seamoth to the floating island? Just use the teleporter on the PEP.
    Also the Reaper is the guardian for that place.

    Can the Ghost leviathan damage your seamoth or prawn suit? He should have an animation were he curls around it like an anaconda and crushes it.

    Yes, the Ghost Leviathan can damage your vehicles.

    I think the Ghost Leviathan is too big for an animation like that to work.

    it somehow put my seamoth inside the terrain.

    Little curious, is there any word on if we'll have ghost leviathan skeletons in the LZ?
