The Frostspore Whale Shark, a legendary tier fish, has made its debut in the enchanting world of Heartopia during the Winter Frost Season. Unlike typical Frostspore Fish, this remarkable creature doesn’t appear during regular fishing sessions in the Old Sea.

To capture the Frostspore Whale Shark, players must navigate a series of steps to prepare themselves appropriately. This guide will provide insights on how to unlock and ultimately snag this elusive beast.

First, it’s essential to access the Frostspore Fishing Events, which are pivotal for encountering the Whale Shark. Players should head to Onsen Mountain to meet Vanya, the Fishing Hobby mentor, who temporarily relocates to the north beach during the Winter Frost Event. Engaging with Vanya and selecting one of the initial dialogue options related to the Winter Frost Season will initiate a brief quest that revolves around the peculiar frozen waters of Heartopia.

Upon completing this quest, the Frostspore Fishing Events will become available on your server. These exciting events run daily starting at 6 PM and are open for all players to join.

When the Frostspore Fishing Event is active, the Whale Shark can appear near Onsen Mountain in the Old Sea. However, the catch isn’t guaranteed, as the Whale Shark only shows up during a specific «Lucky» phase within the event. Players must pay attention for a message indicating «hidden movement in the water,» as this is the signal that the Lucky phase has begun. If this message doesn’t appear, the Whale Shark will not spawn, regardless of how diligently one fishes.

Ensuring a successful fishing trip requires further preparation. It’s advisable to have adequate space in your backpack and some energy-boosting food on hand before attempting to catch the Whale Shark. When the Lucky phase triggers, the Frostspore Whale Shark may appear among the available fish shadows. Its notably large shadow makes it simpler to identify compared to other fish.

To enhance the chances of success, players can utilize Mermaid Fish Attractors and Perfume during this limited time. While the Whale Shark is indeed a rare find, persistence is key, and players should not be discouraged if it doesn’t appear immediately.

With these tips in mind, gather your gear and prepare for an exciting fishing adventure in Heartopia as you seek to capture the Frostspore Whale Shark.
