[Fixed] I can't get cuttlefish skin fragment

[Kairos_SU]

Yeah so a bit of an update, after the latest patch I got all the fragments I need in one dive.
I'm assuming it was a bug and it's fixed.


======================================

I've been trying to get cuttlefish skin fragment for the tranq upgrade and I swear to god I've kill/capture at least 100 of them and there is not fragment at all. Is anyone experiencing the same thing or am I just extremely unlucky??
It's really frustrating cuz I'm relying on net bomb that almost never show up to catch tuna/Marlin I know you can kill them but it's so much more work for even less result.

I'm in the same boat, I've managed to get 1, no idea how I got it, but I've got 1 in like 30 hours of play lol

You have to farm the hell out of cuttlefish in the 50-100m sections, even if you throw their rotting carcasses back into the sea.

Basically my dives at Ch. 6 would be go to glacial zone, kill narwhal and sharks, farm two topaz nodes, aquamarine, ruby and emerald nodes, grab whatever, go back to sea village, swim up to 100m and murder all cuttlefish and trevally (for fins). Even throw in the odd comb jellies and other jellyfish for stingers. It's a long loop but it gets the mats and sushi fish I needed to upgrade a bunch of different weapons while also making money without wasting time segments. A bit overboard, sure, but oddly satisfying, too.

There is/was (I don't know if it's been fixed) a bug where you can't get the additional drops. If you alt+F4 and try the dive again, it might fix it. I had this problem, and I thought it was weird that I wasn't getting a single additional drop, so I alt+f4 and suddenly was getting loads as normal.

I'm getting other additional drop like comb jellyfish just fine so I doubt it, but I'm got it quite awhile ago and it's before I started farming cuttlefish so I'll try that thanks

Yeah I'm already slaughtering the whole family tree for at least 5 freaking generation and not a single drop, hence this post.

Damn I'm on 20 and I think I started catching those when I was at ten (chapter2) and now I'm at chapter 5 and got nothing

Ive been farming cuttlefish with the netgun, took a couple dives but then I had enough skin fragments for a tranq gun. Dont know if the netgun does any difference in drop rate of the additional materials though since Ive been farming them with it from the start

The droprate was around 1 in 20 on 2 star cuttlefish when I was farming them.

I hear you, I wish there was a trade secret but if there is I haven't found it. Compared to trevally fins the cuttlefish skins seemed generous to me. Or the vampire squid tentacle - I'm not even trying for it and got two on four catches. Now I have to see what it's even used for.

I did it with a net gun too, I had it fully upgraded and catch at least 7 cuttlefish per dive so idk what to do to improve my chances

For me it’s 0 in 100 lmfao and I farm with three stars
