Alpha Leedsichthys — Detailed Guide

The Alpha Leedsichthys is the alpha form of the giant Leedsichthys fish. It does not have more health than the normal one, but it is faster, fast enough to outrun a motorboat. It is a natural boat destroyer that can one-shot wooden rafts, even with stone structures built on them.

Where to find it

Ocean maps: The Island, The Center, Valguero and Genesis Part 1 in both games, plus Ragnarok, Crystal Isles, Fjordur, Lost Island and Genesis Part 2 in ASE.

How to get one

You cannot. It is not tameable, rideable or breedable, and it is torpor immune.

Uses

Its special loot is Alpha Leedsichthys Blubber and a Captain's Hat Skin, plus Hide and fish meat.

Tips

It goes after boats and rafts on sight but leaves players alone unless provoked. Since a boat cannot outrun it, leave the area before it reaches you.
