How to Reach the Cursed Sea in Fisch

Accessing the Cursed Sea is an adventure in itself. To get started, head over to Terrapin Island and speak with the Sea Traveller NPC, located at coordinates X:144.3, Y:150, Z:2035. The NPC will direct you to enter the cave behind him where you must defeat the Cthulu Boss using the Keeper’s Torch. During the fight, reposition frequently to dodge powerful attacks while switching up the flame color to inflict damage. Remember, you need to be at least level 250 to make this journey.
