How to Get Conduit Crystal in Subnautica 2?

Conduit Crystal is one of the rarest resources in Subnautica 2. If you’re a beginner who has a strong start in the early hours, you will soon need it.

Conduit Crystal sits at a depth of 300-400 meters in the alien biome, which is east of your Lifepod. This step-by-step guide will take you straight to the right spot to grab Conduit Crystal without any detours.

Part 1: Reaching the Location

Step 1: Head roughly 1,800 meters east of your Lifepod

This takes you past the Alien Ruins and into the deeper Karakorum region, where Conduit Crystal spawns.

Step 2: Locate the Karakorum Power Plant and the Angel Comb below it

These two landmarks are your main navigation anchors. Conduit Crystal nodes sit on the cliffs directly below the Power Plant, overlooking the Angel Comb.

Step 3: Use your Tadpole and then swim

Conduit Crystal sits at a depth of 300-400 meters, which exceeds the Tadpole’s base limit of 250 meters. So, either have the Depth Module or be ready to swim.

Step 4: Head slightly west and look for a large tower-like structure

This unusual structure periodically releases a burst of electricity. This is exactly what creates Conduit Crystal nodes around it.

Part 2: Harvesting the Conduit Crystals in Subnautica 2

Step 5: Sweep the cliff walls and rock pillars slowly around the structure

Conduit Crystal nodes often sit on only one visible side of a rock face, so changing your angle frequently helps you spot them.

Step 6: Use the Sonic Resonator to break the node

Unlike smaller resources, Conduit Crystals cannot be picked up by hand. They need to be shattered first before the loose crystal can be collected.

Step 7: Collect at least three Conduit Crystals before heading back

Three is the minimum you need to craft the Bioscanner, so it’s worth sweeping the full area before making the return trip.
