Leviathans are massive creatures that resemble small islands out in the Ocean biome. These gentle giants are docile inhabitants of deep water, and will not retaliate even if you poke or shoot at them.
Leviathans have special mining deposits on its back called Abyssal Barnacles. These can be mined for Chitin using any Pickaxe.
They are currently the only source of Chitin in the game so always bring a Pickaxe whenever you are out at sea!
Leviathans can only be seen within Ocean Biomes — Use a Karve or Longship to navigate these deep waters.
Look for peculiar small islands that remain unmarked on your map even if you travelled next to it. If you see Abyssal Barnacles on its surface, it's a Leviathan!
It is currently unclear whether Leviathans respawn or not — Or if they can be killed in the first place! Interactions with this beast currently suggest that they simply resurface to another spot in the Ocean after triggering its sinking animation.
The sinking animation has a chance of happening every time you strike at one of its Abyssal Barnacles with a Pickaxe.
| 1 |  Start by approaching the Leviathan with your boat. Remember where your boat is docked at all times! |
|---|---|
| 2 |  Hop aboard the giant creature and start mining away at its Abyssal Barnacles. |
| 3 |  The Leviathan has a chance to perform its sinking animation with each strike at one of its Abyssal Barnacles. Always be ready to jump back into your boat when this happens! |
| Boar | Crow | Deer |
| Lox | Piggy | Wolf |
| Wolf Cub |
