Ambergris
Tips & Strategies

Ok to stop all fakes real life ambergris is whale vomit. HOWEVER the fact that it’s harvested from rocks proves that it is. Here’s my explanation: Green-brown rocks are giant ambergris that space whales threw up. Seem reasonable? Green if you think so!

To cover all bases in the argument, REAL LIFE ambergris is technically poop, caused by a collection of squid beaks and other hard parts of the food eaten by Sperm Whales, which eventually grows large enough to block the whale’s intestines and kill it. As the carcass decomposes, the ambergris floats to the surface, where it bakes in the sun and is worn by the waves into Ambergris

HOWEVER, due to the circumstances required for it to form, having a rare blockage of a specific thing in only one species of whale, it’s unlikely that THIS ambergris is the same as the real life stuff, as the astrocetus doesn’t live in water, doesn’t, as far as one can tell, eat food that leave behind hard parts to block intestines, and that every one that is killed yields ambergris, it’s probably a different substance all together, maybe blubber or skin oils

Too lazy to link it, but you can look up Minute Earth on YouTube to find the video I learned this from, good day to you all, and I hope I ended some arguments

Giant volcano lizards eat whale wax. Yep, this is the game I play, and the game you play...

I see alot of people seem to believe ambergris is whale poo, just to clear up any confusion irl it's actually whale vomit.

Ambergris, found in clusters of green glowing rocks, only ones that actually give you ambergris are the long pointy ones. best harvested with anky followed by mining drill. can be refrigerated for 24 hours and can be put in tek troughs. carry preserving salts to extend lifetime while you gather and bring it back to your hungry magma

It’s the only food magmasaur will eat , as a baby . After they mature they can eat raw meat as well

How to get it: kill an astrocetus

A must have for raising baby magmasaurs. It’s the only food they’ll eat.

Also it’s found in the Lunar biome, best harvested by green glowing rocks with a mining drill.

To the person that says it's the oil skin thingy. I don't even think you know where talking about real life bro.

Baby magmasaurs can have both ambergris and SULFUR.

8 points   Aug 27, 2023   Report

Ambergris can be found in the deep sea cave in Fjordur. You can then use it to get the 100% imprint bonus on juvenile magmasaurs instead of having to cryopod them

The world snake cave has it in the rocks with yellow on it

14 points   Jun 5, 2021   Report

It is whale cheese

Mmmm I love whale cheese

No matter what anyone says a mantis with a good pick will get you the most ambergris the fastest. Teleport to luner north and you'll get alp you need just break every rock with any green on it

It’s Used for Magmasuar Baby Food and It’s used for Astrocetus Special abilities.

This stuff is used in perfume irl.

South East lunar biome is the safest place to get it.
