[@cunnifferous3245]

When I was in my Seamoth, I was behind the Aurora, and being chased by a bunch of Reapers, then I went quite a bit away, and I thought I was safe. I was at the surface, and when I looked down, I saw one of these beasts. My Seamoth was flung about 15 meters into the air OUT of the water, and my Seamoth wasn't fast enough to outrun it and it blew up. I, was then left with just my Seaglide. I then became Seafood.

[@obamanewsnetwork914]

Aren’t these the largest predators? They never stop growing so they could in theory be hiding far out on the planet.

[@NashiEXC]

Yes but the ghost leviathans in the void are 107m But sea dragons are 112m

[@NeroCM]

gargantuan is most likely extinct. But if it isn't, then yes, that's the biggest lifeform so far.

[@NeroCM]

the gargantuan predator would a leviathan class or even the (made up right now) super-leviathan class. As such, it would most likely live in the ecological dead zone, which pretty much means that it could be anywhere in the depths of the planet, eating the other leviathan class living there. Remember, us only knowing of the Ghost Leviathan and (in the past) the Sea Emperor Leviathan living there does not mean those are the only creatures living in the void... or the biggest. If the gargantuan were alive, it would probably eat ghost leviathans.

[@NeroCM]

that's actually the whole point of the conversation: we don't know if Sea Emperor is actually the biggest. It's the biggest we've ever seen, but considering the planet goes to more than 8 km under sea level, there might be more creatures, even much larger ones, hiding away in the darkness of the deadzone, either herbivores feeding on plankton or gargantuan predators that feed on the other leviathans,

[@bongotoucan7913]

Littledude That guy ghost leviathans eat a lot in a quest to get bigger and so they're pushed into the void because they don't fit anywhere else. So in theory if an adult ghost leviathan were to eat another adult ghost leviathan then it'd grow again

[@bongotoucan7913]

[@RamGilamar]

I doubt anyone will read this but in case you do, here's a story about my "pet" ghost leviathan: So, I was trying to find the wreck in the blood kelp zone (I was in the wrong one anyways) and found the edge of the map (where it goes steep down). I didn't know and just kept exploring. Got a new entry in the PDA and started reading. Got to the part where it said "the crater supports only two kinds of life: microscopic, and leviathan class". In that moment I heard a loud roar and saw TWO ghost leviathans charging towards me. I escaped with 53 hull integraty on the seamoth. The best part: one of the leviathans apperantly continued to follow me, then bugged out and is now roaming the entrance to my base I built in the blood kelp zone. Great fun.

[@TheLastBacon]

Well that's definitely interesting :) I suppose as long as you can navigate around it - it would actually make for great base defense.

An alternative (and marginally more terrifying) theory to the size of the ghost eggs is that they hatch in large groups, similar to fish like salmon. Imagine you're just chilling by the cove tree and one day that egg bursts open with 20-30 ghost leviathans coming out of it.

Here's my first encounter with the Ghost leviathan: I was heading to the deep grand reef to get some gel sacks since I needed them to make a thermal plant. Since my Seamoth was only able to go 200m deep I was forced to hop out and swim to the ocean floor. After I had collected a few I turned back to my Seamoth so I could replenish my oxygen. But just as I turned around I saw a Ghost leviathan attack it. After it had finished f***ing my Seamoth and me s***ing my pants I was forced to make a B-line to my Seamoth since I was only a few seconds away from drowning. As soon as I got in I saw the damned thing come back for round 2, I reversed up to the surface as fast as I could. While I was escaping I managed to take a horrifying screenshot of it charging at me. I still have it saved on my computer.

I remember when I first encountered a ghost leviathan. It was the first leviathan I ever encountered (Not counting in the Reefback). I was just casually exploring the grand reef with my seamoth, and then I just look behind and I see a ginormous blue creature screaming and coming right toward me. I almost shat my pants. (It was actually one of the adult ghost leviathans found in the grand reef) FUN FACT: As of writing this, I still haven't encountered a reaper. Its almost weird. I have fixed the aurora, and now I'm exploring the disease research facility in the lost river. I've encountered the juvenile ghost leviathan multiple times (the one that roams in the lost river near the big drop) and I've named him breadcrumbs. As a tip to anyone who comes across them, if you're in ur prawn, they won't come and take ur breadcrumbs if you don't piss on their cheetoes. What I mean is that if u leave them alone they probs won't attack u. EDIT 2: Read the reply to this if u wanna hear what happened to me later.

[@TheLastBacon]

Oh that's really interesting :) for most people, the reapers would be among the first leviathans they encounter - maybe you're just really good at avoiding them!

[@iboju414]

Yeah, As an update, when I went to get some more lithium from the mountain island, I also remembered that behind the G.U.N there is a reaper leviathan. I wanted to scan it. (I was on the island and as u know theres a reaper roaming next to it). I jumped off the island and there it was. I used my statis rifle to stun it and I scanned it. So, now i’ve encountered one. I guess my book of not running into them is still clear as I technically went after one. EDIT: I wasn’t that scared when actually scanning the reaper and going near it. I still wanted to resurface quickly and go back on dry land before the statis bubble ended. Apparently it ended right when I turned my back, because right when I get up from the water onto dry land and think i’m safe, I turn my back and right then the reaper just jumps out of the water. (So it was following me) After that jumpscare I was legit so scared that I needed to pause the game and go take a 15min walk. As for reference, subnautica and other horror games don’t scare me that much, meaning I was legit so scared.

I remember I first encountered the Ghost Leviathan, when I decided to go in a straight line with my Seamoth at the surface of the water. When the AI told me I was entering the "ecological dead zone" I had no idea what it meant. So I nearly had a heart attack when some giant blue demons rose out the seemingly safe water and destroyed my sub.

[@TheLastBacon]

Yup :) they really don't like you going there!

[@awesomeflippergamer]

My friend fought one, it never hit him, it just went towards him then through him. It would try to attack miss or go through a non moving survival player and then back off. I also had an encounter with a sea dragon in survival in my prawn suit and it shot fireballs but never hit me and eventually just left me alone because u can't out run it even with grapple and jet upgrade

I still remember my first reaction to basically every creature in this game...mostly because it was the same phrase each time but one. Stalker - "Hi! You look friendly, let me scan you." Crabsnake - "Hi! You look friendly, let me scan you." Crabsquid - "Hi! You look friendly, let me scan you." Reaper - "Hi! You look friendly, let me sc-OUCH!" Sea Dragon - "Hi! You look friendly, let me scan you." Ghost - "o_O Ohgodpleasedon'tseemepleasedon'tseemepleasedon'tseeme-!!" That said, when I played Hardcore, suddenly the Reaper leviathans took top spot again. The Ghost leviathans terrify me, but at least *I can see them coming*.

When my cousin came over to play Subnautica in my Xbox, we were doing our thing until he wanted to explore the third degasi base. Now we were severely ill equipped for this journey with only a sea moth going to 300m, but when we made it there, he left his sea moth right on top of the crush depth, and he went exploring until we heard the warning vc. He goes to check on it, and the look on our faces when we see the Ghost Leviathan is priceless.

[@skeemanswarmachine2617]

My first experience with a ghost Leviathan was when I was returning home after exploring, I wanted to go all the way around the Aurora to avoid the reapers because they gave me nightmares, I was just calmly bringing my seamoth around when my pda said ecological deadzone, and I realized, "wait there's no ground I've been sailing in a black sea" but I shrugged it off because it was night so I guessed it was just steep and visibility was low, and then my seamoth took damage and at the corner of the glass I saw a blue glow that was attached to something behind me, so I turned around and there was the very sight that would fill me with infinite horror, a massive, blue, glowing, see through worm like creature twisting and turning and it let out it's terrifying screech and I decided to just get out of there, when I made it to land again I felt safer and continued home. After that experience I was almost always filled with horror when I went away from home because I would think that even if I know it's safe here, I thought that path home was safe too then nightmare fuel incarnate paid me a visit, so now I'm scared shitless thinking I could just be ambushed by a behemoth at any time, now the worst part is though, I still had to deal with the reapers which then I almost saw as a saving grace that meant I'm nearly home and away from the terrible beasts of the void.

[@pangarnek7501]

[@epis7055]

Ok. So, I’m playing Subnautica on Xbox. Just to let you know. Here’s a story: I was going to the inactive lava zone to get kyanite. I sneaked past the ghost leviathan guarding the entrance in my cyclops. Then, I made it to the Inactive Lava zone. All I had to do was get in my Prawn suit and drill some of that kyanite. Then, my prawn suite was taking damage because I was below crush depth. THEN, I got the kyanite and left the area. When I was back in the Lost River (where the ghost leviathan was)... the ghost leviathan attacked me. I almost died. I escaped, but then my cyclops was taking damage somehow. Then I realized the Lava Larva was destroying my cyclops. In seconds, my sub was all smoke. I had to extinguish the fire, but I couldn’t see in all the smoke. My character was coughing, and I was so stressed. Then, I got rid of the fire. I got back to my base, and right away, I grabbed my gravity gun thingy. The thing that lets you launch creatures. Anyways, I used that to get rid of the larva. I shot the so far, that they went past the Aroura.

[@TheLastBacon]

Haha nice :) shooting lava larvae for distance sounds like good fun!

Not gona lie, your whole theory about egg size and their lifestyle seemed pretty convincing

[@TheLastBacon]

[@thegamespider2762]

One question about the prawn arm strat for killing them: Are you sure this is the best tactic? The drill arm does far, FAR less damage than the default arm, and you mentioned it can take 10 minutes to do it with the drill arm. It is possible to kill them in one single max o2 tank and a thermoblade (stasis rifle too obviously)

[@TheLastBacon]

Oh definitely not the best damage-wise :) punching is way more effective, but I think for people who might struggle with timing and aim, drilling is a safer bet.

[@chromatic_delusions]

The first time I ever encountered one of these I swear I almost crapped my pants. I had only just started playing, inspired by a KZbinr and knew that there was some sort of island north of the map so I thought 'hey I'm just gonna swim until I see land and find that alien thing'. Then I stopped after a while and said 'uh this looks deep what's down here?' So turns out is was the bulb zone and I ended up seeing an ampeel and thought 'bruh that's cool imma scan it'. Not a good idea when you're barely 3 days in. I freaked out, swam to like 5m and swam as fast as possible. I didn't even know where I was going. I would've never guessed I'd go over the crater edge.... And that's when I saw it. I thought it was some weird blue reaper since I didn't know about any other Leviathans except for the reefback. Tried scanning and died in the process ;-;

[@nightwing5740]

Honestly, I have had 21 hours on a world in the past like 3 weeks, and have scanned the reaper without a stasis rifle, so I’m not too scared of it anymore, but going to life pod 12 jumped me cus I didn’t know that there was a ghost there and I had my cyclops there too.

PDA mentions that juvenile ones are very agressive and will eat any other creature, including other, smaller ghost leviathans.

[@nateharvey1300]

My favorite detail from the ghost leviathan juvenile pda entry is that they seem to be directly related to the ampeels, and the little protrusions you can see inside their bodies are vestigial electrical prongs. “Displays some similarities to other eel-like predators in the area, however the ghost leviathan has covered over the electrical prongs on its inner torso with a taut, transparent membrane which delivers superior maneuverability.”

[@TheLastBacon]

Very interesting indeed :) Always cool to see how the fauna is connected!

[@ItsAlex_lol]

I remember my first ghost leviathan experience. I was going out to the alien island, but missed it by a little and ended up going all the way to the dead zone. I was in my cyclops and My PDA told me that a report was added to my databank so I just stopped moving and read it. I heard the scream and I had no idea what it was. Then I read how this place only supported leviathan and microscopic life forms. I tried to get out, but somehow got turned around and was totally lost. Long story short, I watched my cyclops sink into the abyss before the ghost leviathan took two big bites of me.

[@TheLastBacon]
