Where is the Nickel ore?

[Wet Socks]

I acn see that I need it several prawn upgrades, but I've never ran into the material during my explorations. Where can I find some?

Lost river in the green brine.

Lost river all along on the walls and ceilings. They are brown lumps that sort of resemble small limestone nodes

Only found sulfur so far.

also is there anyway to collect the materials in the brine without dying?

I find nickle everywhere but no sulfur crystals and here you have the opposite problem. XD

Be very careful. Slow and steady and you can grab the sulphur without getting hurt much.

Sulphur is under the surface of the green rivers in the lost river. You have to look carefully to see it and then be even more careful picking it up.

Thanks. Also: I have the PRAWN suit. It's immune to brine.

Ah thanks, I wasn't sure what it looked like.

If your in your Seamoth farming material in the lost river bring your propulsion cannon. When you see a lump in the brine pools use the cannon to fish it out(Right click - Grab, Left Click - Bag).

As others have said, you can find it in the green stuff along lost river.
I just got my hands on that material, and getting it was an awesome experience!
Entered the lost river on my cyclops thru the cave on the mountains, fearfull of the ghost leviathans there, then went out for a swim to gauge the depth, as i was allready 800+ meters and my prawn suit (without depth upgrades) can only do 900m.
At floor level depth was 860meters, so i got back on the cyclops geared up, got into the prawn suit and went for it!
As i was walking on the floor, i was constantly attacked by the juvenile ghost leviathan and those (dont know their name?) kind of eels that look like a smaller less glowing ghost leviathan, luckily i had the hull strength upgrade on the suit, and their attacks did minimal damage, plus they got a drill to the face every time they tried. Still had to get out of the suit to repair it a couple of times.

Eventually, and at a depth of 880 iirc, i found three large deposits of nickel! so if filled the suit up, got back to the sub, and started heading back.
On the way back i was attacked by that damn ghost leviathan, managed to escape with about 50% hull integrity and some minor fires on the sub!

It was very exciting!

But anyway, enough rambling.
Its on lost river, make sure you bring your prawn suit with a drill arm and if possible a grappling hook as well, and watch your depth!

I found nickel in the lost river by the big glowing tree. Even knowing it was there, I almost gave up finding it. And then I found 4 or 5 all at once.

Pretty much, yeah. It's so tiny AND sparse that even if you've played the game before, you thank god you don't need all that much of it.

"Just build a scan room!" is no excuse for this wacky implementation, and nickle in particular is a real pain compared to most materials.

Sounds like you had a great time. :D Congratulations on that experience!

This, Tree Cove is littered with nickel and it's easy to pick up.
