As you go exploring the Ocean biome in Valheim, you are bound to find unknown creatures and resources. This part of the game is mostly unexplored until this point. And mind you, don’t go too far towards the horizon or the world actually ends and you fall to abyss. Beside the Sea Serpent, there is also Sea Turtles in Valheim that some players have stumbled across, mining the shell of the turtle gets you the Chitin resource. So, stick with us and we will tell you all about how to find Sea Turtles, get Chitin, and unlock Harpoon in Valheim.
Sea Turtle, Chitin, and How to Unlock Abyssal Razor and Abyssal Harpoon
As you would have assumed by now, all the three things the Sea Turtle, Chitin, and Harpoon are co-related. You need to first find the sea turtle, so you can mine its shell for Chitin, which will unlock the Harpoon recipe.
How to Find Sea Turtle or Kraken in Valheim
We have report from past that the Kraken was removed from the game by the developers. However, that’s contrary to users on both Steam and Reddit who found the sea turtle, which suggests the Sea Turtle known as the Kraken is very much a part of the game. There is nothing to suggest that the animal is a sea turtle just user reports. Nevertheless, it’s huge and appears like an island on mid-sea. The Kraken is not an aggressive animal and its shell can be mined.
You cannot kill these creatures and when you start to mine, they will drop to the sea disappearing from sight. But, you still have enough time to mine them.
To find the Sea Turtle or Kraken in Valheim, you have to explore the vast ocean. There is no specific spot that the Kraken spawns. When you see an island on the ocean like the image above, it’s most likely the beast. Maintain stealth as to not spook it.
How to Get Chitin in Valheim
To get Chitin in Valheim, you have to mine the back or the shell of the Kraken or Sea Turtle. You should be careful and quick while mining the island looking shell of the beat as it would dive down into the water if it detects mining going on its back. It’s not an aggressive creature, so it won’t attack you, but that’s not to say it cannot damage the boat or the sailor as it dives underwater.
Once you have mined Chitin from the Kraken, you will unlock the Abyssal Razor and Abyssal Harpoon in the Forge.
How to Unlock Abyssal Razor and Abyssal Harpoon in Valheim
As you know by now, to unlock the Abyssal Razor and Abyssal Harpoon, you have to achieve the Chitin resource. Once you have the resource in your possession the weapons will be unlocked and you can craft it in the Forge with the required resources.
To craft the Abyssal Razor in Valheim, you require a level 4 workbench and the recipe item such as 4 Fine Wood, 20 Chitin, and 2 Leather Scraps. The Abyssal Razor is the most powerful knife so far in the game. It has 12 Slash and 12 Pierce. The knife is greenish-yellow in color.
To craft the Abyssal Harpoon in Valheim, you require a level 4 workbench and the recipe items such as 8 Fine Wood, 30 Chitin, and 3 Leather Scraps.
That’s all we have in this guide, we hope you know now how to find the Sea Turtle or Kraken, get the Chitin resource, and unlock the Abyssal weapons in Valheim.
