Starting the Quest at Tiki Outpost
To begin your journey toward obtaining the Shark Anchor, a Legendary sword, you must first travel to the Tiki Outpost. Once docked, locate the Shark Hunter NPC. This character acts as your primary quest giver and craftsman for the essential items required to summon the boss holding the sword.
Step 1: Crafting the Shark Tooth Necklace
The first prerequisite item you must craft is the Shark Tooth Necklace. This accessory unlocks further recipes in the Shark Hunter's inventory.
"A craftable accessory that serves as the first step in the Shark Hunter questline"
To craft this item, you need to collect specific drops from sea enemies:
- 1 Mutant Tooth: Obtained as a drop from the Terror Shark raid boss.
- 5 Shark Teeth: Obtained as a drop from regular Sharks.
Step 2: Unlocking the Terror Jaw
After crafting the necklace, the Terror Jaw recipe becomes available. This is the second mandatory step before you can target the Shark Anchor directly.
Required Materials:
- 1 Mutant Eye: Dropped by the Terror Shark raid boss.
- 2 Mutant Teeth: Dropped by the Terror Shark.
- 10 Fool's Gold: Looted from Ghost Ships or the Grand Brigade Pirate Ship.
- 5 Shark Teeth: Dropped by regular Sharks.
Important Looting Tip: When engaging Ghost Ships, you must destroy them before they despawn to ensure you receive the loot.
Step 3: Crafting the Monster Magnet
Once you have completed the previous steps, you unlock the Monster Magnet. This is the consumable item responsible for summoning the specific boss that drops the sword.
Crafting Costs:
- 2 Mutant Eyes
- 8 Electric Wings: Obtained from Pesky Piranhas.
- 20 Fool's Gold
- 10 Shark Teeth
How to Summon the Anchored Terror Shark
With the Monster Magnet in your inventory, go to the docks at Tiki Outpost and spawn a boat. You must sail into the Danger Zone while holding the magnet.
"The specific sea region players must navigate to encounter high-level sea events"
You will know the summon is successful when the following message appears on your screen: 'Your <Monster Magnet> has attracted an irregular beast...' Note that the Monster Magnet is consumed immediately when the Anchored Terror Shark is summoned.
Boss Stats and Drop Requirements
The Anchored Terror Shark is distinct from normal versions because it has a visual anchor attached to its body. Defeating this boss is the only way to loot the Shark Anchor, but strict rules apply regarding who receives the drop.
Stat / Mechanic | Detail |
Boss Health | 195,000 HP |
Visual Feature | Large anchor attached to the body |
Drop Eligibility | Only the player who used the Monster Magnet |
Damage Requirement | Player must deal at least 10% damage to the boss |
If you do not deal at least 10% of the total damage, you will not receive the sword, even if you were the one who used the magnet.
Upgrading the Shark Anchor
Once you have obtained the sword, you can maximize its damage by visiting the Blacksmith. Performing this upgrade adds +8% damage to the weapon.
Upgrade Materials:
- 10 Fish Tails
- 5 Mystic Droplets
- 50 Scrap Metals
