Obtainment Method
Starting off, to get the Atomic Snail Deviant in Once Human, you will need to load into a PvE Server. This is because this Deviant can only be obtained in PvE.
After that, you will need to participate in a Prime War on Easy Difficulty. Prime Wars are events that appear in the form of huge beacons that are difficult to miss. You can spot Prime Wars by looking at your map.
Once a Prime War appears, make sure to participate in it. After that, you will be able to take part in it with other players. Make sure to be there on time or you will not be able to get enough points.
When you’re in a Prime War, your goal is to get as many points as you can. This is because you want to get the Gold Crate that can only be obtained if you get the highest tier of rewards.
So, your goal should be to get at least 800 Points so that you can get the Gold Crate and reach the highest tier of rewards. The Gold Crate has a chance to contain the Atomic Snail Deviant. Here are some actions that you can do to increase your Rating Score for Prime Wars in Once Human:
- Offering Healing Support to Allies

You can also see the Detail Panel below, which shows all the actions you can do for the specific Prime War that we did in Once Human. Try to complete these actions too to maximize your points.
After you Complete the Prime War on Easy, go through your Inventory. You should be able to see the Stardust’s Advent – Easy III Crate, or the Gold Crate. We also recommend you open the other reward crates, for maximum loot.
Additionally, be sure to use Controllers when you open the Crate. Doing so will maximize your rewards, which could potentially increase your chances of getting the Atomic Snail Deviant.
After you open this Gold Crate, go to your Inventory and check the Deviants. Here, you can see whether you got the Atomic Snail Deviant or not. It can take many tries as well and will depend on your luck. If you do not get it, you will need to repeat these steps and try again.
