How to Use the Abyssal Harpoon

Using the Abyssal Harpoon is very simple. When attacking with the Abyssal Harpoon, it will attach a rope between you and any creature it hits. You are then able to pull the creature by moving in the direction you want to.

The rope can break if there is too much distance between the player who holds the Abyssal Harpoon and the attached creature.

As of patch 0.148.6 the Abyssal Harpoon no longer works against any of the bosses.

How to Upgrade the Abyssal Harpoon
