What Nuclear Wasteland looks like
Toxic green barrels, cooling towers and sludge.
Reaching Nuclear Wasteland is a big jump: the very first animal you usually catch here, the Sludge Mimic ($1.6Dd/s), already earns about 200000x a plain Wraith, the best animal of Phantom Harbor.

Tips for Nuclear Wasteland
- Supreme foods (Tier 17) only exist for this zone. Toxic Donut is the entry point; Uranium Cake (around 9 Qad) is the best food in the game.
- Once you can reach the end of the map, more power does nothing for catches – put everything into food and luck.
- Hunting the Waste Harvester: land on the far edge of Nuclear Wasteland with your best food and save lucky throws for it. If you are already past Nuclear Wasteland, turn throw strength down with the gear icon.
