Item Spotlight: Transponder Tracker and Transponder Node
Never lose your dinos again thanks to this handy tool. Granted, they might still be killed in the wild, but many have argued that most Dinos fare better with their instincts than the instructions of the wise man who sits on them, and accidentially falls off a cliff. GPS tracking is a two-part solution. You’ll […]
Item Spotlight: Crossbow and Machined Shotgun
Patch 187.0 added these two new weapons. The crossbow excels in underwater-hunts, where it can be used to hurt swimming dinos from a safe distance. It weighs 8.0 units, and is available relatively early in the game (the required level is 25), though the price of 12 engram points certainly is not cheap. Obviously you’ll […]

The trusty bookshelf is by far the most convenient way to store your research results. With 100 slots it offers a lot of room, but that comes at a price: You can only store Blueprints, Specimen Implants and Notes there. Unlike the Reinforced Steel Vault, it is affordable before the endgame. The Engram is available […]
Item Spotlight: Reinforced Steel Vault
The Reinforced Steel Vault arrived with Patch 177.0, and is a great way to store large amounts of items. However, it comes with a hefty pricetag. As you can see below it requires an impressive amount of resources, which puts it at the end-game stage. Crafting You need the following items to craft a […]

This post gives you an overview of how to find them. How to find them The key to harvesting the pearls is to recognize them. The image to the left shows […]
