Can I get my Cyclops into the Lost River?

[rolypoly]

I found a place from the grand reef (near the abandoned seabase) where I can reach the lost river, but that place I think only my prawn suit can navigate, there is no room for the cyclops.

Is there any other opening where my cyclops can fit? I haven't found any other openings from the inside yet, but the place is very room on the inside.

Yes, you can.

There are two entrances, one in the Dunes and one in the Blood Kelp Zone. I've been using the Blood Kelp Zone.

The Blood Kelp Zone enterance is a tight but tons of room to move around in still, make sure to use the Cyclops Cameras as you maneuver inside.

I would advise using Silent Running/Stealth with the lights off as you have to slip pass a Crabsquid and Warper.

Make sure you craft some Beacons so you can drop them at points so you can return and find your way round.

You can use the Seamonth to visit the Lost River if you have the MK3 upgrade installed, but you have to stay high in the caves, but it allow you to get around like the Cove and places to farm stuff.

If you want to go deeper like the Lava Zone, you need the Prawn Suit or take the Cyclops further in since the Seamoth can only do 900m.

The dunes has no entrance to the lost river. Both blood kelp zones have entrances.

The bloodkelp near the floating island has the nicest vertical descent. You can get through with a minimum of squids and very little scraping.

The entrance to the lost river that and many other use. Can be find next to lifepod....dang i forget right now. But you get a "signal" that leads you directly to it. One of my favorite biomes....mainly cause it has its own light...lol

I prefer the northern Blood Kelp area, west of the Mountain Island (QEP precursor base.)

Made a quick clip showing this Lost River entrance that I usually use, if it's of any help to you.

I normally don't take my Cyclops all the way in there since it's a tight fit, but it can be done. Seamoth to my base normally works just fine though, and leave the Cyclops out by that cavern entrance.

Just a tip. Never. Ever. Go to the northwestern entrance. It's the most frustrating entrance that'll make you wanna uninstall the game. Go to the eastern one.

I always used the entrance near the degasi base in the grand reef, just try harder i guess

I almost exclusively used the NW entrance, for several reasons;

1) It was the first one I discovered, so I knew it inside and out by the time I discovered the other 3
2) It has a permanent beacon already right by the entrance (Lifepod 2), I always forgot to bring beacons with me to mark out anything I found so was relying on in-game ones
3) If you come at it directly from the Safe Shallows and drop straight down it has very little in the way of dangerous fauna around it (don't overshoot the lifepod as there is an adult Ghost behind it
4) The Ghost Juvie inside the Ghost Forest is much easier to bypass than the NE/Mountains corridor one (as it is off to the side)
5) Apart from the brine waterfall it is easy to navigate with the Cyclops

[Ruiner]

The best entrance for the Cyclops it the one in the North East on the border of the Mountain and Bulb Zone it's large enough to fit the Cyclops easily, and you have a straight shot through the Lost River without having to dodge or avoid any obstacles.

It's directly north of the front/left corner of the Aurora.

Grand Reef is also an entrance, but u need to fit in the entrance very hard, be patient. I just need to go in grand reef once, so it is ok. I used that entrance
