Tempoross

A Fishing boss at the Ruins of Unkah. Fish and load harpoonfish, tie on before the waves, put out the fires, then drain its essence. Points become reward permits for the pool.

Tempoross is a group Fishing boss: there is nothing to attack. You fish harpoonfish, load them into cannons and keep the fight going while the storm spirit tries to wash you away. You need 35 Fishing.

How a game works

Energy phase. Fish harpoonfish at the island spots, cook them at a shrine if you like, and load them into the ammunition crates: each raw fish drains 10 energy and each cooked one 15. The storm grows the whole time, and if it reaches 100% everyone is washed back to Unkah with nothing.

While Tempoross has more than 10% energy it fights back. A colossal wave knocks you back and washes away fish and tools unless you tie yourself to a mast or totem pole with a rope, and it can break the mast or pole (repair it with a hammer). Lightning starts fires that you put out with a bucket of water, and torrents stun whoever is loading the cannon they hit.

Essence phase. At 0 energy Tempoross dives, the storm resets and the two spirit pools wake up: harpoon them to drain its essence. Essence at 0 wins the fight. If its energy fills first, the cycle starts again, and after three cycles it is enraged and the storm rises four times as fast.

Points and rewards
