Elite wildlife, found around the planet of Shear, are indicated by a white plus icon above the creature. Once you’ve killed the creature, you can grab a Buff from its corpse. This is like having two Perks. Now, an icon is displayed in the upper-right corner for the five minutes that the Buff lasts. Looking at the map also displays the current Buff.
