Objective approach

No per-difficulty item manifest is recorded for this guide. Follow the on-screen tracker, then use the notes below to decide what to stage before committing to the final hand-in.

• Read the objective tracker after every major interaction; many ICARUS prospects reveal the next step only after the current one completes.
• Stage resources at the hand-in or build site before triggering final timers, wildlife waves, or extraction travel.
• If the guide has a manifest above, build the Hard list first when possible; it covers lower-difficulty planning and avoids under-packing.
• Keep the return route open. A finished objective still fails the run if the crew cannot safely reach the dropship or delivery pod.

Preparation

• Start with a bedroll, campfire or shelter kit, oxygen and water storage, bandages, splints, and enough food to cover the full route.
• Assign one player to navigation and one to resource accounting so the crew does not duplicate long hauls or miss a delivery line.
• Use the loadout list below as the minimum kit, then add mission-specific tools before launch.

Hazards and controls

• No special hazard is recorded, so default to storm shelter, wound treatment, spare tools, and enough ammunition for unexpected predators.
• Long travel remains the risk: mark caves, water, and emergency shelter locations as you move.

Execution checklist

• Before drop: confirm prerequisite unlocks, mission timer, loadout, and who carries shared deployables.
• On landing: locate water, set a respawn point, and confirm the first objective marker before building a permanent base.
• Mid-run: consolidate loot and mission items at one marked cache; keep one repair kit and medical stack on each player.
• Before extract: verify every optional delivery, reward unlock, and follow-up objective is complete before leaving orbit-side cargo behind.

Hints & tips

Bring a bit of Food, Oxygen, Water and medical supplies including a Suture Kit and a Splint to the outpost. The HEAL device and other medications can be found on the bodies at the outpost (check both inside and outside the facility).
You can find the notes here:

• First floor, in the room near the entrance with 2 desks. On the side of one of the desks
• First floor, on the plumbed sink in the corner
• First floor, in the destroyed research room on a desk
• Second floor, on the industrial shelf in the hallway
• Second floor, on the bunk bed in the bunk/kitchen room
  Experiment 002 Biochip is on the creature remains on a table in the facility. The other biochips are found by following the mission steps.
  If you plan to do the Compliance mission later on, you may wish to grab the Scalpels from the destroyed lab room to save yourself a trip back. Due to a bug with the Compliance mission, there may not be any scalpels present in that mission to use.
  Completing the mission unlocks the Laboratory Themed Decorations in the Tier 2 tech tree under the Decoration Bench.
