Death Essence — Detailed Guide

Death Essence is what a tamed creature leaves behind when it dies. It holds the creature's essence, which means the tame is not lost for good yet: the essence can be brought back to life in the waters of an Oasisaur.

How to get it

It appears when one of your tamed creatures dies. There is no recipe and no loot source for it.

What it is used for

Take it to an Oasisaur to resurrect the creature it came from. Each essence weighs 0.5 and does not stack, so each fallen tame takes its own slot.

Tips

Store the essence in a locked box until you can reach an Oasisaur; if it is lost, the tame is lost with it.
