All Gadget Type Deviants in Once Human — Yield, Locations, and Happiness Guide

Do you remember Gru and his minions from the Despicable Me series? Well, Once Human gives you the perfect opportunity to become the boss of your own army of minions or Deviants. These squishy and sometimes cute creatures may seem harmless at first sight, but they can make the difference between survival and death in the game. There are many types of Deviants scattered around the large world map; some help you in combat, while others will generate rare resources for you, which you can use to make invaluable items.

So, if you are looking for how to get Silver Spring or Heart Vines in Once Human, you are at the right place. In this article, we will discuss all Gadget Type Deviants in Once Human, their yields, what makes them happy, and how to get them, let's start:

Blogs All Gadget Type Deviants in Once Human

Deviants in Once Human are divided into three categories based on the nature of their unique characteristics. For instance, you can carry the Combat Deviants to gain additional buffs, Territory Type will go out into the wild and collect various resources for you, and Gadget Type Deviants will yield rare resources for you. Moreover, some Deviants can also be used to teleport your teammates right into the battle arenas. There is also a fourth category (Furniture Type) but we just like to call it the Wish Machine. Here are all the Gadget Type Deviants in Once Human, their uses, and how to get them:

Blogs Atomic Snail: [August Update]

Atomic Snail is the latest entry in the Gadget Type Deviants in Once Human. This special minion was introduced in the recent August 2024 Once Human Patch, and everyone is going crazy for it. Basically, the snail produces Tunneling Fluid when placed inside its Isolated Securement Unit. You can use this fluid to craft the Aero Leap, a consumable that allows you to dash mid-air to close in on your enemies.

There are many speculations about the Atomic Snail Deviant, but most of them are wrong. The only way to get this special Deviant is to open the Stardust's Advent III crates by earning 1000 Points in Prime Wars.

Snails are nature-loving creatures, and apparently, the Atomic Snails need a quick electric shock to get them started. You can keep them happy with the following items:

Crops
Flower
Electricity (5W)

Blogs Atomic Lighter

This little Deviant produces Split-Core Cotton when placed inside the Isolated Securement Unit. You can use this special cotton to craft the Fusion Lighter, a throwable item that explodes on impact. The DMG of this blast is roughly equal to 115 + 650% Psi times a random base multiplier. Based on this information, the damage output of each blast can range from high to catastrophic each time, making it one of the most effective items against Elites and Bosses in Once Human.

There is a chance to drop the Atomic Lighter by defeating the Siren Boss in the Securement Silo – EX1. You can find this Silo on the Chalk Peaks at around character level 20+.

Next up, we have the Disco Ball Deviant, the definition of happiness in Once Human. This special gadget produces Inspiration Fragments when placed inside the Isolated Securement Unit. You can use these fragments to craft the Utter Delight Whim, a consumable that increases the duration of all other Whims or status effects by up to 35%, granting you additional boosts like enhanced melee damage.

The Disco Ball is usually made up of RGB colors, and that's what makes it happy. So, you should install the following colors to enhance its mood:

Red Light
Green Light
Blue Light

Blogs Dream Catcher

We all dreamt of becoming The Spiderman while growing up, and the Dream Catcher is there to make all those fantasies come true in Once Human. This special Deviant produces the Trap of Silk when placed inside the Securement Unit. You can use this rare item to craft The Weaver, a consumable that leaves a cobweb whenever you roll during battle. Any enemy that walks into this web will get stunned or slowed down, giving you extra time to inflict loads of damage.

Blogs How to Get Dream Catcher?

You can capture the Dream Catcher Deviant after defeating the third boss, Arachsiam, in the Mirage Monolith. Unfortunately, that's your only chance, so don't miss it at any cost.

Frog the Leaper is your best buddy to reach the unreachable places in the game. This special Deviant produces Silver Spring (that's how to get it) in the Once Human Securement Unit.

Furthermore, it also sometimes produces Wind-Up Tadpole, which you can use as bait for fishing.

This cute little Deviant has some rather unorthodox preferences. You can make it happy by giving it the following items:

Toy
Electricity (2W)

Blogs Gingerbread House

The Gingerbread House Deviant is the master of disguise in Once Human. So, catching it may seem impossible unless you are really determined. However, once captured and placed in its Unit, the Gingerbread House yields Morph Crumbs or Cracker Crumbs, which you can use to craft Transformation Cookies at any Supply Workbench. This special consumable will temporarily Disguise you into any nearby item, making you invisible in plain sight.

Now it is time to uncover the secrets of the Living Armor trait in Once Human. This particular Deviant is probably among the wanted minions in the game.

This special consumable generates an invisible shield around the player whenever their HP drops below 25%.

Once Human can be pretty depressing at times, making you quickly lose your Sanity. Fortunately, the Hug-in-a-Bowl Deviant is there to save the day. This special Deviant produces Delicious Soup when placed inside the Securement Unit, which you can use to cook Homemade Noodles. Consuming these delicious noodles or, as the Koreans say (have some Ramyeon) will restore your Sanity by 100%.

Blogs How to Get Hug-in-a-Bowl?

You can randomly drop the Hug-in-a-Bowl Deviant while cooking the Hug-in-a-Bowl recipe with Deviated Peppercorn on your Electric Stove (unlock the Memetics first). If you can't find the Deviated Peppercorn, check out our Once Human Farming Guide to grow some yourself.

Alternatively, you can also randomly catch them at one of the following coordinates (4937, -3907) on the roadside in Iron River or (5771, -6056) under a bridge in Broken Delta. However, your chances are pretty slim so you better start cooking the special recipe.

Blogs Hug-in-a-Bowl Happiness

Again, the Hug-in-a-Bowl loves to thrive close to nature, so you can place them side-by-side with the Harveseed and Gingerbread House Deviants to cheer them up. They are used to the following items:

Crops
Flowers

Blogs Masonic Pyramid (PVP)

The Masonic Pyramid Deviant is pretty disturbing in many ways. Capturing this minion is your doorway to open the third eye in your subconscious. Basically, the Masonic Pyramid generates two ingredients, i.e., the Mind Matrix and the Wolflame. You can use these items to craft one of the following items:

Predator: It makes you temporarily invisible to all nearby enemies, and your next hit will be a guaranteed 100% Critical Strike.

Parapsychology: This consumable triggers an alarm in your subconscious or the sixth sense whenever a malice aims at you.

Unfortunately, you can only drop the Masonic Pyramid Deviant when participating in a Stronghold Conquest/War event in a PVP Server.

The easiest way to catch the Space Turner is to complete the Dayton Hospital quest. Let us help you there; simply change the calendar date to 9/15 (September 15th) to complete the quest. If you missed it by any chance, this Deviant also spawns near the Door Puzzle in the southeast of Throughville, in Dayton Wetlands.

Blue Light
Toy

Blogs How to Use Gadget Type Deviants?

Unlike the Combat Type Deviants, you don't really need to Synchronize every new minion that you add to the Securement Unit. Instead, the Territory and Gadget Type Deviants automatically sync and get to work as soon as they are placed in their new homes. All you need to do is to catch one of the above deviants, build an Isolated Securement Unit, add the Happiness items, and right-click or press F to place them inside. Finally, make sure to collect the generated items daily and use them to craft your own special gadgets.
