Subnauticais an indie game that takes players deep under the sea of a mysterious planet. Starting with almost nothing, the main character Ryley Robinson must survive using only what can be found beneath the waves. Of the many resources available inSubnautica, Stalker Teeth are useful but not necessarily easy to locate. Follow this guide to learn some handy strategies for gathering teeth.
As one may assume, the material comes from a creature known as the Stalker. Of the creatures found on Planet 4546B, Stalkers are not incredibly dangerous but do pose some threat in the early game. Since they can be found rather easily in the starting area, Safe Shallows, collecting the teeth is something that can be done from the get-go. In addition toSubnautica’shidden features, there are a variety of different methods to get teeth, ranging from passive to aggressive.
Updated March 9th, 2022 by Russ Boswell: Subnautica still maintains its status as one of the most engaging, unsettling, and downright tense survival titles out there. Although there has been a new release with Subnautic: Below Zero, many players find themselves jumping into the series for the first time and starting where it all began with the original release. There are a lot of amazing things to see, do, and collect in Subnautica but some of them are a bit ambiguous. Take, for example,Stalker Teeth in Subnautica, which can be a bit odd to obtain for newcomers. To better showcase how to snagStalker Teeth in Subnautica, as well as what they’re used for, the following list has been updated.

If just beginning the game and looking for some Stalker Teeth, the stealthier approach will be more ideal. Interestingly enough, these shark-like creatures are attracted to Titanium or Metal Salvage items. Players can find salvage around the starting area, shipwrecks, andmobile vehicle bay locations. Collect a pile of scrap metal and locate a Stalker somewhere in the Safe Shallows. Drop around 3 pieces of metal nearby the Stalker’s hideout and lie in wait at a good distance. The Stalker will swim towards the salvage and when it picks up the metal it can leave a tooth behind.
By leaving multiple piles around a single Stalker, it can swim around to each multiple times and potentially leave more than one tooth. Players will unlock other tools like Camera Drones, a Seamoth submarine, and an armored Prawn Suit. When any of these get near a Stalker, it will become aggressive and slam into the machine. However, this action can cause the fish to leave behind a tooth too.
There are also some methods that are a bit more outwardly harmful to the Stalker, but can yield results. Shoot objects at the creature using the Propulsion Cannon or deliberately crash into it with the Prawn Suit or Seamoth. A couple of hits in this fashion will finish off the beast, but a tooth can drop as a reward. This can be helpful if the peaceful approach is not working fast enough. Though, using the Grav Trap can also keep the Stalker near the Metal Salvage if body slamming fish is not a player’s favorite method.
Keep in mind, only a certain number of teeth can spawn in an area at one time. If nothing is appearing, try swimming around and finding any teeth. If having trouble locating the item, useSubnauticapro tipslike waiting until nightfall and using the flashlight to find the pieces. Once unlocking the Scanner Room, players can use that to locate teeth in the area as well.
What Are Stalker Teeth Used For?
Stalker teeth can be a bit annoying to gather for the uninitiated, but they’re definitely worth the hassle. The sharp items can be used in the Bioreactor to produce 70 Energy, but their real purpose lies in creating Enameled Glass. Players looking to unlock more vehicles and strengthen the Seamoth will want to get their hands on this resource as soon as possible, making Stalker Teeth pretty important to the average Subnautica explorer.
By placing aStalker Tooth and some regular Glass into the Fabricator, players can produce an Enameled Glass. This item is used in five different recipes, and players will want to get their hands on enough Enameled Glass to build everything, as the crafted items are pretty important. Here’s a look at everything that uses Enameled Glass.
Players that want to have access to all the vehicles, as well as afully upgraded Seamoth, and the ability to decorate their base with a viewing platform, will need to snag a small handful of Stalker Teeth.
Subnauticais available on Mac, PC, PS4, Switch, and Xbox One.
