Back to Creatures

Cachalot are large toothed whales living in Oceans. They're very fast, strong and durable high-end creatures which parts give access to following recipes: Cachalot Charm, Whaler's Jacket, Whalebone Clasps and Whalebone Scrimshaw.

To butcher a creature, you must first tow it to the Knarr or Snekkja and take it to the shore, secondly drag on the ground with the help of a horse.

Spawn

There is only 3 [Verify] whales can be alive in the world, spawning mechanic is similar to dungeons - whales will not despawn naturally, and after one is killed, next one will spawn in next 8 RL hours (1 in-game day).

Combat

Behaviour

Usually not aggressive, but will attack anybody in the area if already in combat.

Strategy

Beware, Cachalots are very strong creatures, capable of outrunning and breaking a Knarr or Snekkja.

In-Game Example(s)

Notes

  • Dead Cachalot can be hooked to knarr and lifted on сoast. Then dragged on land by the horse.
  • Butchered in several pieces that can be lifted.
  • The Cachalot Blowhole is softcapped by the quality of the cutting tool first used to butcher the cachelot.
  • The Cachalot chunks are only softcapped by tool when butchered directly, not when the whale is butchered.
  • Chunks and Skull not decay naturally and can be used as decoration forever.
  • Neither the heart or skull can be stored in a vehicle's cargo

Game Development

  • World 14 (2022-08-12) >"Reworked the whale spawning mechanic, aiming to reduce the reliance on simply seeing ocean tiles to find infinite whales."
