The Electric Eel is one of the most useful Deviant types you can get early in Once Human, and its unique ability is one you’ll want to get fast.
It’s fairly easy to get, too, since you basically just need to go fishing. If you manage to catch one of these Deviants, you can put it in your base to increase the power output of all of your generators!
In this short guide, we’ll tell you everything you need to know to get one of these Electric Eels for yourself.
How To Get Electric Eel Deviant Fast | Once Human
The Electric Eel Deviant is only obtainable through fishing currently. That means that you will need to have a Fishing Rod as well as Bait to be able to get it. You can get them as follows:
- Fishing Rod – Can be crafted at any Supplies Workbench from the start of the game. Requires 20 Logs and 10 Copper Ingots. You get Logs from chopping down trees and Copper Ingots by using the Furnace to melt down Copper Ore found by mining.
- Bait – There are multiple types of bait, but any of them work for the Electric Eel Deviant. We recommend using Dough Fish Bait since you can craft it using 1 Corn at the Supplies Workbench. Alternatively, you can buy it from the vendor at Meyer’s Market Dock.
When you have all of that, you just need to start fishing! You have a random chance of obtaining the Electric Eel Deviant anytime you fish. There doesn’t seem to be a spot where it’s particularly common either, sadly, so there’s no specific way to get it fast in Once Human.
Best Fishing Spots for Electric Eel Deviant
However, we do know of two spots that are easy to reach and work well for most players. The first is the previously mentioned Meyer’s Market Dock, shown above. It’s a nice safe spot, plus you can buy more Bait from the nearby vendor anytime you need to.
SIDE NOTE: We have a complete guide for all Deviant locations in Once Human, make sure to check it out as well!
The second spot we recommend is the beach in the southern part of the Broken Delta region, seen above. You’re more likely to encounter enemies going there, but some players have better luck fishing the Electric Eel Deviant there.
Either way, all you have to do is to keep fishing. You should get the Electric Eel Deviant quite fast in Once Human, usually taking just around 10 minutes or so of fishing for most players. Remember to put it in an Isolated Securement Unit so that you can use its passive electricity generation ability!
