This cute puppy friend will produce small balloons for you that will give you materials for featherweight potion, which is an important thing in the game as it will help you craft items in the supplies workbench. Now, let’s not waste any more time and take a look at how to get Pup Buddy deviant in Once Human together.
How To Get Pup Buddy Deviant
In order to get the Pup Buddy Deviant, you need to shoot down an adversary who is attached to a floating Pup Buddy. After you do that, you are going to have a slight chance to loot the Pup Buddy deviant from the enemy’s body. There is more than one location where you can get this deviant in the game. Check out the two locations where you can find the Pup Buddy Deviant below.
- Evergreen: The enemy you are looking for might spawn anywhere around the Evergreen Area.
- Blackfell Oil Fields: If you want to find the enemy more easily, Blackfell Oil Fields might be the better option. This is because it would probably be easier to look at one location instead of the whole area.
SIDE NOTE: We have a complete guide for all Deviant locations in Once Human, make sure to check it out as well!
As we mentioned, for an easy option, you can head to Blackfell Oil Fields. There is a teleportation tower close to this location. So, you can try to change the world if you cannot see the enemy you are looking for.
In this area, you need to look for an enemy that is connected to a floating balloon puppy. This enemy could be anywhere around the area, including the houses inside and the fields outside. So, you will need to look for it a little.
Remember to change the world if you cannot see the deviant. Doing this would be the easiest option since there is already a teleportation tower close to this area. Usually, this method is the best thing you can do if you are having trouble with finding something in this game.
How to Use Pup Buddy Deviant
Now that you know how you are going to find and get this cute puppy balloon friend, we can talk about its benefits. Pup Buddy is a crafting type of deviant. Meaning that it will craft some things for you if you put it in an isolated securement silo in your base.
The Pup Buddy will produce special materials that you can use to craft whim potions. These potions are required to increase your load capabilities in the game. After your deviant gets rested and accumulates enough deviant power, it will start producing the material.
After your deviant produces the materials you need, you can head to the Supplies Workbench. There, you will be able to craft a whim potion called Featherweight Potion. That potion is indeed very useful since you will be looting a lot of materials throughout the map. The most important thing you will do to get materials in the game is looting and dissembling that loot in the Disassembly Workbench. Most of the time, you will get the materials you need using this method.
Therefore, this potion will help you a lot when you want to get extra materials. Upon use, it will increase your carry capability by +50.
How to Increase Pup Buddy’s Mood
All deviants in the game have different kinds of mood boosters that you can place near their securement areas to boost their performance. It is possible to see them on their information screen. For Pup Buddy, you need to place:
- Green Light: Craft a green light on the building menu and place it anywhere near the deviant. You do not have to place it directly on the deviant, it will affect it if it is located close. This will allow you to use your green light for more than one deviant. Definitely useful since there are other deviants who enjoy the presence of green light as well.
- Music: You can place a radio in the area and play some music for your deviant. The radio needs to be in the same room as the isolated securement silo.
- Toy: Decorate the area with a couple of cute toys. Placing one toy is enough, and once again, it will affect more than one deviant if it is close enough.
So, these are everything you need to know about how to get Pup Buddy deviant in Once Human. We can say that it is easier to get since some deviants such as Lonewolf’s Whisper Deviant in the game will require you to defeat a Great One.
However, the difficult part of finding this one is that there is actually no certain location to look at. It can be walking around anywhere around the areas we mentioned, and you might need to change the world more than one time if you are not lucky enough.
