Microscopic survival
Grounded
It’s a big(ger) world out there.
Obsidian Entertainment makes its exclusive debut on Xbox One and PC with Grounded, a unique survival experience that literally makes all of your problems much, much bigger. Join your friends as you’re shrunk down to the size of an ant and are forced to survive in a dangerous backyard.
Where do I find the Koi Fish Scale and Bone Spear pattern?
Finding and learning the patterns for these items is quite easy. However, getting down to where they are is not that simple. The two most important materials you will need to craft these new items are in a location separate from the main koi pond area. This area is called ‘The Depths”, and you will need to be outfitted with proper swimming gear to obtain the materials you need.

The koi pond secret lab also resides here. If you are unfamiliar with how to get to the secret lab, we have a full guide available to help you get there. Thankfully the materials are not restricted to a singular area down in the depths. You will have to scour the bottom to find what you need, though. It will help a great deal if you activate the secret lab at the bottom of the koi pond, which is a great way-station for traveling.
How do I get the Sunken Bone & Koi Fish Scale materials?
Once you’ve reached “The Depths” and are comfortable spending long lengths of time in the water, it’s time to gather the prime materials you need. It will help if you bring a lamp with you as well. You will have to scour the bottom of the tunnels in this area for the materials. There will only be two different materials that you will uncover; a muddy scale, which is the Koi Fish Scale, and a Sunken Bone.
