A noise-dampening housing that wraps the Tadpole's thruster cavitation signature, reducing the acoustic profile that attracts aggressive fauna. With this module installed, the Collector Leviathan's aggro radius is noticeably reduced, allowing you to pass closer to it without triggering pursuit. Particularly valuable in Root Canyon where the leviathan patrols regularly. Blueprint found in Root Canyon biome (~1,981m east of Lifepod).
Effect
Reduces Tadpole engine noise; shrinks predator aggro radius.
How to Obtain
Fits On
Notes
Effect: Reduced Tadpole acoustic signature; predators (especially Collector Leviathan) have a smaller aggro range.
Tips:
- Stack with the [scout-ray-chassis] for maximum evasion — run quiet and run fast.
- Blueprint is in Root Canyon, which requires the Tadpole Depth Mk.1 to reach safely — unlock depth first.
- If the Leviathan is still aggro'd despite the Muffler, combine with [distraction-flare] and sprint.
