Grubbler Locations & Crafting Recipes in StarRupture

by

In StarRupture, there are tons of materials to collect and things to craft, which can make finding everything a bit overwhelming. One example is the Grubbler – a small, edible insect that’s useful for cooking, especially if you need to boost your resistance to Corrosion.

Grubblers are easy to catch – they don’t fight back like larger pests called Vermin. The trick is finding them and knowing where to look. This guide will show you how to quickly spot and collect plenty of Grubblers, letting you unlock all the available crafting options.

How to Find & Farm Grubbler in StarRupture

Grubblers are unique bugs that only live in the strangely shaped trees found on the hills and in the eastern part of Arcadia-7. These bright orange insects are easy to see, and they usually become active after a Rupture Wave.

As a long-time Arcadia-7 watcher, I’ve always been amazed by those twisted trees – they’re a direct result of the Rupture Wave. And get this – that same destructive wave, the one that wipes out everything on the surface, is actually what helps us find Grubblers! It’s crazy to think something so dangerous makes spotting them easier.

Grubblers have a bright orange color, like Ignitium, and are easy to see even from a distance after they move. You can find three good places to farm them east of the Landing Pod, the starting area.

You can find one on the hill leading to Prism Herb Lake, and another near the Trench – that’s the area surrounding the green hills in the eastern part of the map.

The area around the Underground Cave entrances is filled with strangely twisted trees, so keep an eye out for them. Watch out for Monoliths too – they draw in waves of dangerous creatures, making it tough to survive. It’s best to bring plenty of ammunition.
