Walkthrough
- Various types and difficulties of enemies are scattered around the map. Simply defeat the required numbers of enemies (10, 15, and 18) to successively complete the three goals.
- Bring a fishing rod and some kind of bait for the Cave Kraken - it can be fished up in the lake marked with a ??? target near the Cornucopieyes (northwest I-9). The target indicates that there is an enemy present there upon clicking it.
- Kraken has been verified to be caught with 0 skill using a Lu Shang's F. Rod and Little Worm.
- After several runs, Kraken never appeared before 5 minutes into run. It is possible that it uses some of the logic a standard fished monster would use, and requires that time after instance creation for it's spawn timer to pass.
- It is not likely that bait matters, as it does not for any other fished monster. Similarly, rod only matters for a typical fished monster in that it may bestow benefits related to the minigame.
- Kraken was successfully fished with a Clothespole/Meatball combination. Insect Ball and Sliced Sardine got no bites.
- Lu Shang's F. Rod and Shrimp Lure, Sabiki rig, Robber Rig and Worm lure did not work (tried multiple times)
- Lu Shang's F. Rod and Little Worm did not work (tried 5 times)
- Lu Shang's F. Rod and Meatball worked first attempt.
- Halcyon Rod and Shell Bug did work after 8 attempts
- Fastwater F. Rod and Little Worm worked first attempt.
