The Deadliest Catch
Hunting Quest: Slay 7 Ludroth
Reward: 800z
Contract: 100z
Time: 50 min.
Area: Flooded Forest
Subquest A: Slay 3 Catfish
Reward: 600z
You've hunted Ludroth before in the two-star urgent quest “No Love for Ludroth.” This time, you must slay six, and since you've surely upgraded your armour and weapon since then, this quest should be a breeze.
There is one Ludroth in Area 1, two in Area 4, three in Area 6, and six underwater in Area 8. To enter Area 8 during this quest you'll have to swim through Area 6, as the two other entrances are blocked off.
![]() Slay three Catfish to complete Subquest A. Look for them in Areas 4, 5 and 6. |
Completing the subquest requires killing three Catfish. Catfish can be found underwater in Areas 4, 5 and 6. Attack a Catfish and it will attempt to swim away when it's weak. Continue attacking the Catfish and it will eventually disappear. Rest assured, this counts as a kill. If you want to carve the Catfish, the killing blow must be made with a Fishing Harpoon.

Don't forget to make sure to farm some ores while you're underwater. Also I found the longsword the best for killing quickly simply due to the reach it serves as quite the crowd control weapon.
don't you mean, six MORE?
