Sandwild Comet Locations and Capture Tips
The Sandwild Comet spawns between Area 11 and Area 16 in the Chasm Sand Plains. Currently, it is confirmed to appear during the bountiful and barren nights, so it's recommended to check the time through quests or environmental cycles in advance. Please note that even with stealth gear equipped, the Sandwild Comet's escape mechanism will still trigger. It’s advisable to maintain a safe distance or use ranged weapons/traps for capturing and controlling it.
Recommended Capture StrategyStand at a safe distance and use a Throwing Device to launch Sound Bombs. When the Sandwild Comet becomes startled, quickly switch to a Capture Net to catch it. Be cautious, as this process needs to be done quickly; otherwise, the changeover from the Sound Bomb to the Capture Net may be too slow, resulting in the loss of its startled state, leading to an escape.
You can acquire Sound Bombs by using a Clutch Claw on a Blast Wyrm. The Blast Wyrm will also appear in the skies above the Sandwild Comet's spawning areas.
If you cannot find the Sand Wild Meteor or it escapes, you can adjust the time to search for it again.
Resting at the camp allows you to freely change the time, but each rest consumes guild points. There are multiple simple camp setup locations near the Sand Wild Meteor's appearance area, so it is recommended to set up any simple camp in advance for easier exploration. Alternatively, you can adjust the time through side quests or idle play if you want to avoid consuming guild points.
