How to Get to the Third Sea in King Legacy: A Complete Guide

Prerequisites for Reaching the Third Sea

The Third Sea, often referred to as the "Underwater World," represents one of the most significant milestones in King Legacy. Before you can even consider making the journey, you must ensure your character is adequately prepared. The most critical requirement is reaching Level 4000. As of recent updates, the level cap has increased to 5000, but the threshold for entering the Third Sea remains firmly at 4000.

Beyond the level requirement, you should prepare your gear. The challenges awaiting you in the Third Sea are significantly harder than those in the first two worlds. Bosses have massive health pools, and the general difficulty curve spikes noticeably. Ensure your fruit and fighting style are leveled up, as you will be required to defeat a powerful boss solo to gain access.

Starting the Quest: The Squid NPC

Your journey to the next world begins at the starting island, often referred to as the Viridians or Japan Island. Head to the docks area and look for the NPC known as the Squid. This character acts as the gatekeeper for your transition to the Third Sea.

When you speak to the Squid, he will provide you with the necessary mission to summon and defeat the Kraken. However, you cannot simply fight the Kraken upon request. You need a specific catalyst to trigger the encounter: the Heart of the Sea. Without this item, the altar will not respond, and you will be unable to progress.

Crafting the Heart of the Sea

To obtain the Heart of the Sea, you must travel to Fior Island. Once you arrive, navigate to the mansion located atop the hill. Inside, head to the left side to find a basement area. Here, you will encounter an NPC named Jack Stones.

1. Gather Materials: You will need various items, including wood (chopped from trees), Sea King’s blood (from the hourly Sea King boss), and a pile of bones (dropped by skeletons on Skull Island in the Second Sea).
2. Collect First Sea Items: You also need fresh fish (from Fish Island NPCs), an Angelic feather (from Sky Island), and an Undead Uzi (from Zombie Island).
3. Crafting: Once all materials are gathered, return to Jack Stones in the Fior Island basement to craft the Heart of the Sea.

According to player experience, gathering these items can be time-consuming, so it is best to plan your farming route efficiently before heading to Fior Island.

Defeating the Kraken at the Altar

With the Heart of the Sea in your inventory, return to the harbor on the starting island. Locate the Altar Island—a small area situated down the road from the Squid NPC. You will find an invisible NPC near the altar. Interacting with this individual allows you to use your Heart of the Sea to spawn the Kraken’s tentacles.

Warning

You only have six minutes to defeat the Kraken. If you fail to finish the fight within this window, the tentacles will disappear, and you will have to restart the process. Community reports emphasize that this must be done solo, as external help is often restricted during this specific quest phase.

Focus on one tentacle at a time rather than spreading your damage. Using high-output moves, such as the Dragon’s standard or effective fruit abilities like Flame, can help you manage the tentacles efficiently. Once defeated, the boss will drop the Kraken Sashi.

Finalizing Your Travel to the Third Sea

After successfully securing the Kraken Sashi, return to the Squid NPC at the docks. Upon presenting the item, the Squid will acknowledge your strength and grant you passage to the Third Sea.

Once unlocked, you will notice a change in your travel options. You can now select the Third Sea as a destination directly from the Squid or the "Expert Captain" NPCs. This makes moving between the three worlds much more convenient for future grinding and exploration.

Tips for Surviving the Third Sea

Transitioning to the Third Sea is not just about completing the quest; it is about surviving the new environment. Here are a few tips gathered from veteran players:

• Grind for Gear: The Third Sea introduces new weapons, such as the Acro Spear and the Saber V2. These require significant materials, so be prepared to spend a lot of time farming.
• Watch Your Bounty: Bounty hunters are common in the Third Sea. Keep an eye on your surroundings, as the environment is more hostile than the previous seas.
• Preparation is Key: Do not rush into the Third Sea without checking your stats. If you find the bosses too difficult, return to the Second Sea to level up your Haki and fighting styles.

FAQ

Can I get help from friends to defeat the Kraken?

The Kraken encounter for the Third Sea quest is generally intended as a solo challenge. Most community reports indicate that you must deal the damage yourself within the 6-minute window to progress.

What happens if I die during the Kraken fight?

Don't worry about falling into the water. If you die during the fight, you will respawn on the island, allowing you to quickly get back to the altar to try again, provided the 6-minute timer has not expired.

Is the Third Sea fully finished?

As of current game updates, the Third Sea is considered "unfinished" by the developers, meaning it is still being expanded with more islands and content. Always check the official King Legacy updates for the latest map additions.
