Tips & Strategies from the iOS & Android apps
Yarr, mateys! Ye can tame this here Kraken of the sea, by allowing it to grab ye with its terrible tentacles, and feeding it jelly toxin when it shakes ye screen until it’s knocked out. Once it’s tamed ye can use it to climb up walls, create ink, and drag filthy bilge rats down to Davy Jones’s Locker!
Biotoxin is the best item to put it to sleep.And as of now in the updates exceptional kibble is its preferred food for perfect taming
You can breed these octopuses the female has to be in water for egg to be safely born doesn’t work on land from my testing/theory.
Feed it when your screen shakes, not before 👍🫡
Spawns in the water. Also you can find them around the lighthouse with all the boats. It’s one of missions.
They actually prefer prime fish meat over exceptional kibble, and they don’t eat black pearls at all
To tame let it grab you and feed it narco’s at its beak, then it’ll pass out like the acro only don’t attack it, it attacks you! Being good gear and lots of narco’s.
I try to feed it biotoxin But it did not want to eat it
Get ready to literally chase a little a$$hole across the ENTIRE ocean. Feed it Narcs until it’s out and you’ll feel like you never ever wanna tame another one again. Most deff traumatized. Oh look another pretty one! #Tidepuphealingforthewin
