Just like in any game, acquiring some of the top-tier armor and weapons in Skull and Bones involves a significant investment in obtaining rare materials. One such coveted material is Monstrous Scales.
Monstrous Scales serve as a critical ingredient for crafting various items offered by the Sea People Huntmaster at Lanitra outpost, notably the formidable Ouroboros Armor. However, the game doesn’t readily disclose where to obtain this essential resource, hence the need for this guide.
Locating Monstrous Scales in Skull and Bones
According to the Skull and Bones Codex, Monstrous Scales are a rare drop from the Zamaharibu sea monster. It’s important not to confuse this creature with Kuharibu, a world boss encountered during the From the Deep quest.
Zamaharibu differs from its green counterpart with its gray and red appearance, heightened strength, resilience, and expanded array of attacks. Defeating Zamaharibu yields multiple Monstrous Scales along with Monstrous Tooth.
Finding Zamaharibu in Skull and Bones
As of now, Zamaharibu does not seem to be available in the game. Speculation suggests that this formidable opponent might make its debut with the launch of season one in the upcoming weeks.
While Ubisoft’s roadmap does not explicitly mention the arrival of Zamaharibu in season one, glimpses of the creature were observed in early Skull and Bones gameplay footage alongside other season one content, such as the La Peste boss encounter. This hints at a probable imminent release, sparing players from a prolonged wait to acquire Monstrous Scales.
In previous gameplay previews, Zamaharibu was accessible through the Jaws of Retribution contract at the Bounty Board in Saint-Anne. This formidable adversary was part of a Rank 11 quest, posing one of the most formidable challenges in the game. Players are advised to use this time to strengthen their ships and prepare for the impending confrontation.
