Where to find Conduit Crystal

Answer first

Conduit Crystals spawn deep in Karakorum around Alien Ruins / Angel Comb cliffs and blue-glow Axum Conduit pylons (generally 250–450 m). Bring Tadpole Depth Module + Sonic Resonator; blast coral-like metal deposits. Crystals feed Bioscanner / Feedback Resonator upgrades.

Field notes

MaterialsConduit Crystal
ToolsTadpole + Depth Module, Sonic Resonator
Depth / zoneKarakorum ~250–450 m

Steps

  1. Unlock Alien Ruins marker (Tadpole Pens / story), cross the chasm with a Tadpole (Collector Leviathan risk).
  2. Install Depth Module so you can work below ~250–300 m.
  3. From Alien Ruins Research Base, head east-southeast (~120°), follow purple roots toward Angel Comb; search ledges and blue-glow pillars.
  4. Harvest with Sonic Resonator. Pylon-adjacent nodes can respawn; a few static deposits are also reported on cliffs under the Power Plant.
  5. Craft Prototype Tool Modifications (Feedback Resonator / Bioscanner) — you typically only need a small handful.
