Aniimo Russet Highlands Incredible Eggs: All 3 Locations and Highland Tubster

Russet Highlands holds three Incredible Eggs, and picking up all three makes a Highland Form Tubster appear in the region. Gamer Guru filmed every spot in launch week: here is each one from a named Bloom, the map frame he opens on it, and the mushroom rock plateau the Tubster stands on afterwards.

Russet Highlands holds three Incredible Eggs, and collecting all three makes a Highland Form Tubster appear in the region. Two of them sit in the green west, within a short run of the Rainbow Woods Bloom, and the third is out in the red canyon country in the north east. The Tubster then stands on a flat mushroom shaped rock in that same north east corner, and it is a catch rather than a hatch.

Three is not a guess. The launch client places exactly three Incredible Egg objects inside the Russet Highlands block, our own map data carries the same three markers, and the note Gamer Guru runs across the first minute of his video says the same thing: pick up these 3 Incredible Eggs to make the Tubster spawn. The game states the rule itself in the Aniimo entry for the form, under Requirements: it appears after collecting all incredible eggs in the area.

What follows is his route, spot by spot, with the map frame he opens on each one and the frame at the moment of pickup. Where the game’s data files can back something up we say so, and where a thing is only shown in his footage we say that instead, with the timestamp.

What an Incredible Egg is, and what it is not

The in game Aniimo entry for Highland Form Tubster in Aniimo, listing Russet Highlands as its Aniimo Location and the requirement to collect all incredible eggs in the area
The in game entry at 1:44. Aniimo Location reads Russet Highlands, and Requirements reads “Appears after collecting all incredible eggs in the area.”

An Incredible Egg is a world pickup, not a reward you are handed. It glows purple where it lies, the prompt on it reads Incredible Egg, and taking it drops Incredible Egg x1 into your bag. Only the first of the three in this region sits in a twig nest; the other two are bare, tucked into rock. The drop table behind the Russet Highlands one gives exactly one item and nothing else: no coins, no EXP, no quest step.

That item is the region’s own. The launch client files a separate Incredible Egg per region, and the Russet Highlands row reads: “An egg with powerful vitality, found in the Russet Highlands. Guaranteed to hatch an Aniimo with Elite potential or higher.” The generic version of the same item, the one our egg database carries, uses that line without the place name. The video never opens the item card, so treat the hatch promise as the item table talking rather than something this footage proves.

0:29, straight after the first pickup. The toast reads Incredible Egg x1 and nothing else lands with it: no coins, no EXP, no quest step.

Two things it is not. It is not one of the named Incredible eggs on the egg database, the twelve rows called Incredible Fulmintis Egg, Incredible Highland Egg and so on, one per family. The plain Incredible Egg is on that page too, as the generic version of this pickup. And it is not the free Prismana egg in the clam cave on the other side of the continent, which is a different pickup with a different trick: that one is in Echoback Landing. One naming note that saves a search: launch renamed every Elite Something Egg to Incredible Something Egg, so older guides and videos calling this an Elite Egg mean the same object.

Russet Highlands also carries other eggs that are easy to confuse with these, so the count matters. Inside the region the client places three Incredible Eggs, five Highland Eggs and one Alpha Egg. Only the three Incredible ones are part of the Tubster set.

One honest gap: there is no Incredible Egg tracker to point you at. No achievement in the data ties to them. The percentage bar across the top of the region panel is Aniimo Collection Progress, which pays out at 40%, 70% and 100% for catching different species, and it is the bar you see move on screen: 18% when he opens the map at 0:00, 36% once the Tubster is caught.

1:45. The only percentage this region tracks is the Aniimo collection, reading 36 per cent here with its milestones at 40, 70 and 100. The weather readout says Sunny.

All 3 Incredible Egg locations in Russet Highlands

Two of the three sit within a minute of the Rainbow Woods Bloom in the west of the region, and the third is out in the red canyon in the north east, below the Twister Peaks Bloom. Those two Blooms are the only named fast travel points inside Russet Highlands, and every direction below starts from one of them. There are 28 unnamed Transporters in the region as well, so a Bloom is the landmark rather than the only way in. The region reads exactly as its own description promises: orange and yellow plants over grey rock and soil, winged shadows on the slopes, and altar ruins.

Incredible Egg 1: the mushroom rock in the red canyon

The Aniimo world map zoomed into the north east of Russet Highlands, the player marker on the spot in the red canyon where the first Incredible Egg sits, with the region label reading Lv. 46 to 51
The map at 0:10, centred on the spot. The coordinate box reads -0284, 1666 and the Russet Highlands label sits just above the marker.

Take the Twister Peaks Bloom and head south west into the red rock. The spot is the top of a free standing mushroom rock, a wide disc of banded pale stone on a narrow stem, rising straight out of the orange canyon floor with a second pillar beside it. Upright grey stones are arranged around the disc like an altar, and the egg is in a twig nest among them.

The pickup at 0:26. The prompt reads Incredible Egg, and the toast two seconds later reads Incredible Egg x1.

Bring something that flies. The disc is detached from the canyon walls and its stem gives you nothing to work with, so he arrives on a flying Aniimo and lands on top. Looking for it from the ground means scanning the pillars standing in the sand, not the canyon rim.

Incredible Egg 2: the boulder cleft on the grass slope

The Aniimo world map zoomed to the dry grass country between Berylline Vale and Driftwise Meadow in Russet Highlands, where the second Incredible Egg sits
The map at 0:37, with Berylline Vale in the top corner and Driftwise Meadow to the east. The coordinate box reads -0636, 1465.

From the Rainbow Woods Bloom, run south onto the dry grass slopes in the south western corner of the region. The landmark is a long grey rock outcrop lying across the slope like a wall, with green leafy trees and a few autumn ones crowding its uphill side. The egg is wedged in the cleft where the outcrop splits, about head height above the grass, and it is visible from below well before you reach it.

The second Incredible Egg in Aniimo, glowing in a cleft in a long grey rock outcrop on a golden grass slope in Russet Highlands, with the F Incredible Egg prompt beside it
The pickup at 0:42. The same Incredible Egg prompt, on a slope of golden grass rather than red sand.

Incredible Egg 3: the stream hollow east of Rainbow Woods

The Aniimo world map zoomed east of the Rainbow Woods Bloom in Russet Highlands, the spot where the third Incredible Egg sits, with Berylline Vale to the west
The map at 0:51. The coordinate box reads -0608, 1605, and the two tree clumps beside the marker are the wood the egg is in.

Go back to the Rainbow Woods Bloom and follow the water east. The egg is under the far bank, in a shadowed hollow at the foot of a pale rock face, and the giveaway is the ground cover: a band of small purple flowers runs along the grass here and nowhere else nearby, with one big tree leaning over the stream. Wade across and the prompt is on the dark opening in the rock.

The pickup at 0:55, in the shade under the rock face. A wild Helmut is standing in the same clearing a moment earlier.

Here is the whole set in one table. The coordinate column is the figure showing in the box at the bottom of his own map while that egg is the subject, which is the closest thing to a shareable position the game gives you.

Those three readings check out against the client. The launch data places the region’s three Incredible Egg objects at -264.9, 1637.5 and -637.9, 1451.7 and -596.9, 1604.4, in that order, which lands each one within about thirty units of the figure on his map. Three eggs in the files, three eggs on camera, three pins on our interactive map centred on Russet Highlands.

Where Highland Form Tubster spawns after the third egg

The Aniimo system message reading Tubster has appeared in the Russet Highlands to protect rare eggs, moments after the third Incredible Egg is picked up
The line that fires at 0:56, one second after the third pickup: “Tubster has appeared in the Russet Highlands to protect rare eggs!”

The third pickup spawns it, and the game says so in a system line naming the region. There is no timer to wait out and nothing to hand in. The client keeps that notice as a region wide announcement rather than one tied to the egg you just took, which is why it says Russet Highlands and not a place inside it.

The Aniimo map with a custom marker dropped on the Highland Tubster spawn in the north east of Russet Highlands, the region label reading Lv. 46 to 51
The custom marker at 1:13, dropped on the spot in the north east of the region. The coordinate box reads -0076, 1881.

It stands on a flat mushroom shaped rock in the north east, back in the red canyon country. From the first egg the coordinate box moves from -0284, 1666 to -0069, 1882, so it is north and east of the first egg, and the nearest named fast travel point in that corner is the Twister Peaks Bloom. The plateau is unmistakable once you are close: a wide disc of banded stone on a narrow stem, with a chest sitting on it beside the Tubster.

The Tubster at 1:25, level 49 with a New tag, on the plateau with a chest beside it. The pillars behind it are the same rock formation repeated across the badlands.

It is caught rather than hatched: he twines an Aniipod and takes it at level 49, in a region the data files put at level 45 to 50 while the in game banner reads Lv. 46 to 51. Nothing on the route asks you to win a fight, but the walk in can, and the region’s own briefing does not undersell itself: it is described in the client as the most dangerous area on the whole continent.

The Aniimo catch card for No.010 Tubster Highland Form, a Nova stage Break Aniimo, on the Russet Highlands plateau
The card at 1:35. No.010, Highland Form, Nova Stage, Break, over the species line: “The horn mouth is like a trumpet flower blooming in the wind, sending humorous tunes into the distance.”

What you end up with is a second element, not a stronger Aniimo. Our Aniilog gives Tubster and its Highland form the same 550 total attributes and the same 108 HP, the same Break role and the same Nova stage. What changes is the typing: the basic form is Wind alone, the Highland form is Wind plus Grass, and the Beach form is Wind plus Water. Two different lines are in play on screen and it is worth keeping them apart: the catch card shows the species line about the horn mouth, while the form’s own line, the one our Aniilog carries word for word, is on the entry at 1:44: Tubsters living in the highlands roll up grass leaves to decorate the venue.

Tubster Highland Form · No.010 · Wind and Grass · Break · Nova stage

Russet Highlands or Zephyrus Landbridge: which one has the Highland Tubster?

Both do, and that is the data files’ answer rather than a contradiction. The launch client gives Tubster Highland Form one spawn point in Russet Highlands and one in Zephyrus Landbridge, and nowhere else; our Aniilog lists the same two habitats. So the form is not exclusive to either region. Each region has its own Incredible Egg set, and finishing a set spawns the Tubster in that region.

That is why the Zephyrus Landbridge guide also ends on a Highland Tubster, after two eggs rather than three. The in game entry Gamer Guru opens at 1:44 shows only Russet Highlands under Aniimo Location because he is reading it inside the Russet Highlands region panel, which lists that region and no other.

The Aniimo map opened from the Habitats button, headed Tubster Highland Form, with the spawn marked inside Russet Highlands at Lv.46~51
1:47. Pressing Habitats on the entry opens the game’s own map, headed Tubster, Highland Form, with the marker on the spawn and the region reading Lv.46~51.

There is one trap in this, and it is the game’s fault rather than yours: the line Zephyrus Landbridge prints names Russet Highlands. Each of the three egg sets fires its own notice in the game’s data files, and the Zephyrus one is a word for word duplicate of the Russet Highlands string. So finishing the pair over there flashes “Tubster has appeared in the Russet Highlands to protect rare eggs!” even though the Tubster it places is in Zephyrus Landbridge, on the high ground at that region’s north western end. The region name in the message is the only thing wrong with it: the completion trigger, the spawn point and the Aniimo are all filed under Zephyrus Landbridge in the client’s own scene data, and the two spawn points sit close together on either side of the regional boundary, which is why the mix up is easy to believe.

The other Highland Tubster, from Gamer Guru’s Zephyrus Landbridge run at 3:02. Its spawn sits just over the border from this region, which is how a wrong region name goes unnoticed.

The practical rule: if that line appears and you were not picking up eggs in Russet Highlands, do not fly here. Follow the map marker, and read the Zephyrus Landbridge guide instead. The Russet Highlands notice quoted further up this page is the genuine one for this region, and Echoback Landing has its own, which does name Echoback Landing. The Beach form is the one that really is tied to a single place: one habitat, Echoback Landing, which is where its own egg run happens.

Is Russet Highlands a snow region in Aniimo?

No. Russet Highlands is the hot region, and the snow people are thinking of is Driftwise Meadow, directly south of it. Every frame on this route is dry country: red canyon, golden grass, autumn trees, with the weather readout on his map saying Sunny throughout. The region’s own description in the data files is all heat and stone, orange and yellow plants staining grey rock a deep cinnabar, while the description for Driftwise Meadow opens on snowy mountains and frozen lakes.

1:38, looking out from the Tubster’s plateau. Red rock, standing stones, dry golden grass and one bare tree: there is no snow anywhere in this region.

The confusion is a form name rather than a place. Snowfield Form is a label on an Aniimo, not a weather report on a region, and four Snowfield Form Aniimo do list Russet Highlands as their only habitat in our Aniilog: Helmut, Rookey, Baleetle and Waleetle, all four carrying Ice as a second element. The word highlands in flavour text pulls the same trick: the one Aniimo line that talks about petals dotted with fine snow belongs to a Plateau Form Iris, and its habitat is Driftwise Meadow. If you are looking for actual snow to stand in, that is where to go. Our Russet Highlands region page has the full roster, the level band and the neighbours in one place.

If an egg or the Tubster is not there

The one documented reason an Incredible Egg is missing is progress, not time of day. Every Incredible Egg marker carries the same note: “Incredible Egg spawn location. Availability can depend on local activity progress.” That is the only condition stated anywhere in the data, and the video shows all three sitting in place on a single run.

0:15. The answer to the level band is height: he crosses the canyon on a flying Aniimo rather than walking it, and that is also the only way onto the first egg’s rock.
  • Nothing spawns until all three are in the bag. The condition on the form is collecting all incredible eggs in the area, so two out of three gets you nothing.
  • Do not count the Highland Eggs. Five of those and one Alpha Egg sit inside the same region and are not part of the set.
  • The spawn is not on our map, but the game will point at it. Our Idyll data has no marker for it, and the only Tubster marker on the whole continent is an Alpha Tubster over in The Argent Strait. In game it is easier: press Habitats on the Tubster entry and the map opens headed Tubster, Highland Form, with the spot in the north east highlighted. He does exactly that at 1:46.
  • Region level. The data files have Russet Highlands at level 45 to 50 and the in game banner says Lv. 46 to 51, so an under levelled Pathfinder can make the run but should fly rather than walk.

Incredible Eggs in the other regions

Every region with Incredible Eggs runs the same rule, with its own count and its own Tubster form. Gamer Guru filmed all three regions in launch week, and the table below is the whole set as it stands today.

The third form, from Gamer Guru’s Echoback Landing run at 2:00: Beach Form Tubster, No.010, the reward for that region’s own Incredible Egg set.

Russet Highlands is the tidy one of the three. Here the three eggs in the region, the three the completion trigger checks and the three Gamer Guru films are the same three objects, so there is nothing to catch you out. Echoback Landing is the messy one: the client puts six Incredible Egg pickups inside that region and the Beach Form trigger counts only three of them, which is why its video route of four eggs works without four being the region’s total. Zephyrus Landbridge is two and two.

Across the whole of Idyll the launch client places 66 Incredible Eggs in the open world, spread over fourteen regions, so these three runs are a small part of the total. Our own map data plots 48 of them today across thirteen regions: the Sea of Flowers markers are the big gap, with Rosetower Woods short by a few, while Russet Highlands, Zephyrus Landbridge and Echoback Landing agree exactly between the two sources.

Where are the Incredible Eggs in Russet Highlands in Aniimo?

There are three. The first is in the north east, on top of a free standing mushroom rock in the red canyon, a banded disc ringed with upright grey stones, south west of the Twister Peaks Bloom and reachable only by air. The second is in the south west, wedged head height in a cleft in a long grey rock outcrop on the dry grass slopes south of the Rainbow Woods Bloom. The third is east of that same Bloom, in a shadowed hollow at the foot of a rock face beside a stream, in grass edged with purple flowers.

How many Incredible Eggs are in Russet Highlands?

Three. Gamer Guru finds three on camera, and the launch client places exactly three Incredible Egg objects inside the Russet Highlands block, which is also what our own map data carries. The same region holds five Highland Eggs and one Alpha Egg as well, and those are different pickups that are not part of the Tubster set.

How do you get Highland Form Tubster in Aniimo?

Collect all three Incredible Eggs in Russet Highlands, then go and catch it. The game states the rule itself in the Aniimo entry for the form, under Requirements: it appears after collecting all incredible eggs in the area. One second after the third pickup a system line reads, Tubster has appeared in the Russet Highlands to protect rare eggs. It is caught with an Aniipod in the open world, not hatched from an egg.

Where does the Highland Tubster spawn in Russet Highlands?

On a flat mushroom shaped rock in the north east of the region, in the same red canyon country as the first Incredible Egg and north east of it, with a chest sitting on the plateau beside it. The nearest named fast travel point in that corner is the Twister Peaks Bloom. Our own map data has no marker for this spawn, so the plateau here comes from Gamer Guru footage at 1:14 onwards. In game you can have it pointed out for you: press Habitats on the Tubster entry and the map opens with the spot highlighted.

Is the Highland Tubster only in Russet Highlands?

No. The launch client gives Tubster Highland Form one spawn point in Russet Highlands and one in Zephyrus Landbridge, and our Aniilog lists both regions as its habitats. Each region has its own Incredible Egg set, and finishing a set spawns the Tubster in that region, which is why the Zephyrus Landbridge video also ends on a Highland Tubster after two eggs. The Beach form is the exclusive one: its only habitat is Echoback Landing.

Is Russet Highlands a snow region in Aniimo?

No. Russet Highlands is the hot region: red canyon, golden grass and altar ruins, with the weather readout saying Sunny throughout this video, and its description in the data files talks about orange and yellow plants staining grey rock a deep cinnabar. The snowy region is Driftwise Meadow, directly south of it, whose description opens on snowy mountains and frozen lakes. What makes people ask is the form names: four Snowfield Form Aniimo list Russet Highlands as their only habitat, but Snowfield is a label on an Aniimo rather than a weather report on a region.

What does an Incredible Egg give you in Aniimo?

Taking one adds Incredible Egg x1 to your bag and nothing else, and the full set is what makes the regional Tubster form appear. The Russet Highlands version of the item reads, an egg with powerful vitality, found in the Russet Highlands, guaranteed to hatch an Aniimo with Elite potential or higher. The video never opens the item card, so treat the hatch promise as the item table talking rather than something this footage proves. The item’s own use line says to hatch it in the Outpost Hatchinators and Home Hatchinators.
