Egg Locations Guide: Biomes, Vein Detection, & Seismic Scanning
Locate every subterranean egg category with precision scanning coordinates, depth tables, and biome cluster maps.
Essential Strategy Takeaways
- Pebble Eggs spawn near tree root clusters in the first 50m.
- Geode Eggs cluster inside violet crystalline cavern walls (300-600m).
- Dragon Eggs require scanning near molten basalt fissures below 2,000m.
- Upgrading Seismic Sonar increases egg radar detection radius up to 45 meters.
1. Subterranean Biome Distribution
Eggs do not spawn randomly; they belong to specific geological biomes. Understanding geological layers ensures you spend your fuel drilling directly into productive deposits rather than barren stone.
- ›0 - 100m: Surface Loam (Common & Uncommon clutches)
- ›100 - 600m: Crystal Caverns (Rare Geode deposits)
- ›600 - 1,800m: Magma Basin (Epic Magma & Venus eggs)
- ›1,800 - 3,500m: Dragon Chasm (Legendary Dragon eggs)
- ›3,500m+: Abyssal Void & Core (Mythic & Celestial anomalies)
2. Reading Seismic Sonar Pulses
Your drill comes equipped with an audio-visual sonar pulse. When an egg is nearby, pulse rings glow amber for Common, azure for Rare, violet for Epic, and radiant gold for Legendary/Mythic. Turn your rig toward the highest pulse frequency.
3. Mining Clusters Without Breaking Shells
Gentle drilling is required when extracting delicate eggs. Once your bit contacts the outer shell matrix, slow your motor speed to 50% to extract the egg intact without inducing fracture penalties.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can rare eggs spawn near the surface?
During hourly Meteor Shower events, celestial fragments can embed Legendary eggs as shallow as 150m for a limited 15-minute window.
