Read on to learn where to find the Hydronaut Fish Deviant.
How To Get The Hydronaut Fish in Once Human
Just like theIce Pot Deviant inOnce Human, you can get the Hydronaut Fish by completing theDeviant: Hydronaut Fish Quest.This quest is unlocked when you chat with Lowe in Vena Fjord’sWhalebone Settlement.He will inform you that there is a Deviant inPetit Harbor.
By following the objective marker, you’ll come to the docks. Here, you’ll find Hydronaut Fish standing nearby. While it may seem tempting to simply capture the Hydronaut Fish and complete the quest, that’s not an option. The Hydronaut Fish feels lonely in this world, and you need totalk to it and convince the Deviant to come with you.
Hydronaut Fish will then ask you tocatch a fish in the harbor. To do this, you’ll need a Fishing Rod and bait, both of which can be crafted in your territory. Once you catch the fish, you’ll be asked to place it ina fish tankin your territory.
After fulfilling all of Hydronaut Fish’s requests, you can finally capture it. To increase Hydronaut Fish’s power and mood, place its Securement Unit in an area withBlue Light andadd some Toysand Flowers.
While the Deviant quests inOnce Human’s Way of Winterare unlocked by talking to Lowe, the specific Deviants you’ll find depend on Lowe’s location. In Whalebone, you’ll unlock quests for Hydronaut Fish, Ice Pot, and Gazocchio Deviants.
