How to Obtain and Upgrade Sea Beast Race in King Legacy

Mastering the Sea Beast Race in King Legacy

The Sea Beast Race, introduced in Update 6, has fundamentally changed how players navigate the ocean in King Legacy. Designed as the ultimate evolution for those who spend their time hunting sea events or conquering dungeons, this race offers supremacy in water-based combat and mobility. If you have been relying on the standard Fishman race, the Sea Beast offers a significant upgrade, providing better speed, immunity to water damage, and essential health regeneration capabilities.

Whether you are a PVP enthusiast looking for an edge or a PVE grinder tackling the Haunted Ship or Hydra raids, understanding how to unlock and evolve this race is essential. This guide covers the complete progression path, from the initial puzzle-solving requirements to the high-level tasks needed to reach V3.

How to Obtain the Sea Beast Race (V1)

The journey to becoming a Sea Beast begins in the Third Sea. This is not a race you can unlock early in your progression; it requires you to be at a specific power level to even reach the necessary island.

1. Reach the Third Sea: Ensure you have progressed through the game sufficiently to access the Third Sea.
2. Travel to The Shallow: Navigate to The Shallow island, which is designated for players Level 4300 and above.
3. Locate the NPC: Head behind the castle on the island to find the NPC named Neptunian.
4. Pay the Fee: Interact with the NPC and pay the one-time fee of 100 Sea Artifacts.
5. Solve the Puzzle: You will be presented with a 15-puzzle. You have five minutes to solve it.

The 15-puzzle can be a significant hurdle for many players. You do not need to pay the Sea Artifacts again if you fail; you can simply restart the attempt. If you find the sliding puzzle difficult, remember that you can ask another player to assist you, as the game allows for cooperative solving.

Tips for Solving the 15-Puzzle

The goal is to arrange the tiles in numerical order. Focus on solving the top rows first. Once you have tiles 1 and 2 in place, move to the next set. Community reports suggest that treating the puzzle like a "snake" pattern—moving tiles into their final positions while keeping the blank space adjacent to the tile you are currently moving—is the most efficient method. Do not rush; five minutes is ample time if you remain calm and methodical.

Upgrading to Sea Beast V2

Once you have secured your V1 status, you will immediately notice the benefits, such as increased swimming speed and reduced seawater damage. However, to truly dominate the ocean, you must evolve to V2. This upgrade transforms your character's appearance, adding distinct fins and a tail, and provides the complete water immunity and HP regeneration that make this race top-tier.

To upgrade to V2, return to the Neptunian NPC with the following materials:

• 50 Sea Artifacts
• 25 Corals
• 10 Shark Fins
• 5 Pearls
• 1 Aqua Gem

Once you have gathered these items, interact with the Neptunian again. He will consume the materials and boost your race power. The V2 upgrade is highly recommended before attempting any serious PVP or high-difficulty dungeons, as the health regeneration in the ocean is a game-changer for survivability.

How to Unlock Sea Beast V3

The V3 evolution is the pinnacle of the Sea Beast progression. It requires more than just materials; it requires combat prowess and navigation skills. Before attempting this, ensure your character is at least Level 4800. If you are below this level, the NPC will likely tell you that you would be "torn apart by the first wave."

1. Prerequisite: You must already have the Sea Beast V2 race.
2. Locate the Island: Use a compass to find the Sea Beast Island. If you do not own a compass, you may need to ask another player for assistance.
3. Solve the 3x3 Puzzle: Upon arriving, you will face a 3x3 puzzle. This is generally considered easier than the 15-puzzle required for V1.
4. Defeat the Boss: After the puzzle, you will be assigned a mission to defeat the boss Ravthus. This boss is located in the dungeon and has between 1.25 million and 2.5 million HP, depending on the number of players in the instance.
5. Final Evolution: Return to the NPC on the Sea Beast Island once the boss is defeated to receive your V3 upgrade.

Warning

The boss Ravthus is a high-level encounter. Ensure your build is optimized for DPS and survivability before entering the dungeon. Because the boss's HP scales with the number of players, consider bringing a coordinated team if you struggle to solo it.

Sea Beast Race Buffs and Abilities

The primary reason players switch to the Sea Beast race is the utility it provides in the water. Below is a breakdown of how the abilities evolve through the stages.

The V3 active skill is particularly potent for PVP. The whirlpool effect, which steals HP, can turn the tide of a fight if you are able to keep your opponent within the radius. However, remember that for the life-stealing effect to work, you must be in close proximity to the target.

Pros and Cons: Is It Worth It?

Before committing your resources to the Sea Beast Race, it is helpful to weigh the benefits against the potential drawbacks.

The Advantages

• Ocean Supremacy: The combination of water immunity and HP regeneration makes you virtually unkillable in water-based encounters.
• PVE/PVP Viability: It is currently ranked as an S-tier choice for both PVP and PVE, particularly for dungeon farming.
• Superiority: It strictly outperforms the Fishman race in every measurable metric, including swimming speed and utility.

The Limitations

• V1 Vulnerability: At V1, you still take damage from seawater, though it is reduced. You are not fully immune until V2.
• No Passive Defense: Unlike some other races that provide defensive buffs, the Sea Beast race focuses on mobility and sustain rather than damage reduction.
• Conditional Healing: The V3 life-steal ability requires you to be near enemies. If you cannot close the gap, you lose the healing potential.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Can I change the color of my Sea Beast race?

Yes. You can visit the NPC named Nishi to roll for a different color for your race. This service costs 2 gems.

Do I need to pay the Sea Artifacts again if I fail the V1 puzzle?

No. You only pay the 100 Sea Artifacts once. If you fail the 5-minute time limit for the 15-puzzle, you can restart the puzzle immediately without additional cost.

Is the Sea Beast race better than Fishman for dungeons?

Yes, it is widely considered superior. The ability to regenerate health and move freely in the water provides a significant advantage during dungeon runs and raids like the Haunted Ship or Hydra encounters.

What is the minimum level for Sea Beast V3?

You need to be at least Level 4800. If you are under this level, the NPC will not allow you to proceed with the V3 quest.
