marmz 2 Posted December 22, 2018 Anyone know if you can drink sea water off the beach, similar to Ark Survival Evolved? I haven't been able to play for longer than 5 minutes before the servers went down, so wasn't able to confirm. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Goldfish The Builder 105 Posted December 23, 2018 It would be ill advised to try and drink salt water. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
marmz 2 Posted December 23, 2018 Can you prepare the sea water in a campfire or the like to remove the salt, or do you need to source a fresh water source and store it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

All that I saw on a stream was that you weren't able to drink sea water and you could drink water from a river. I know there is something that you can build for the ship to hold water. I'm unsure if you can prepare sea water to make it drinkable though. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
marmz 2 Posted December 23, 2018 Thanks Joe! I guess making a waterskin early will be a good idea. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CtrlSaltDel 13 Posted December 23, 2018 If you lay prone in brush with nothing in your hand, you can dig for fresh water. Good luck! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Do you collect the water this way, or is it a way to drink and replenish on the run? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I believe it's just something for on the run, but don't quote me on that. At least it's something to help if you can't find a river or some other fresh water nearby! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I guess for the first voyage off tutorial island, we will need to bring some waterskins with us. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Make sure for your first trip to bring enough water, food (with different vitamins), as well as a bed. The bed will let you spawn at other islands once you have it down at that island.
