The Rip Hideout Island Event: Your Complete Guide
The main feature of this update is the Rip Hideout Event, a massive new temporary event that takes place on its own unique island. It’s packed with new activities, a new currency, and a powerful new boss to conquer.
How to Start the Event
Getting to the new event island is simple. In any of the three Seas, look for a new Celestial NPC. Speak to him, and he will activate a teleporter that will transport you directly to Rip Hideout Island, the hub for all the new event content.
The Celestial Gacha: Rewards and the New Pain Skin
The primary goal of the event is to earn Celestial Tokens, which are used to spin the new Celestial Gacha. This gacha is filled with valuable rewards, including large sums of money, rare materials, fragments, and three new exclusive cosmetic items: the Celestial Aura, the Celestial Cloak, and the Celestial Helmet.
However, the grand prize of the gacha is the spectacular new Celestial Pain Skin for the Pain fruit. This skin completely overhauls the fruit’s visual effects with a divine, golden-white celestial theme. Here’s a breakdown of its incredible new look:
- M1s: Your basic attacks now pulse with a clean, celestial energy.
- Z Move (Tap & Hold): The Z move now unleashes blasts and beams of pure golden-white power.
- X Move (Tap & Hold): The X move erupts with divine light, showcasing a brilliant new particle effect.
- C Move (Tap & Hold): This move, especially the held version, creates a massive, awe-inspiring dome of celestial energy that is easily one of the most visually impressive in the game.
- V & F Moves: The final moves are equally stunning, featuring intricate auras and powerful blasts of light that solidify this skin as a must-have for any Pain fruit user.
The New Raid Boss: Rip Commander
To earn your Celestial Tokens, you’ll need to face the new raid boss: the Rip Commander. This formidable boss can be found on the event island and uses the powerful Divine Art fighting style, making him a serious threat.
Defeating the Rip Commander will reward you with a generous 300 Celestial Tokens. Be warned, this boss is no pushover and even has a secret hidden mechanic that players will have to discover for themselves during the fight. It is highly recommended to team up with other players to take him down.
New Event Activities: Celestial Fishing
The event also introduces a new activity for fishing enthusiasts. Speak to the new Celestial Fisherman on the island to acquire the new Celestial Shell Rod. With this new rod, you can fish at a new “corrupted spot” on the island to catch rare Celestial Fish, which will likely be used for special rewards or quests.
New Potions and Summer Gacha Update
Alongside the main event, this update brings some other great additions and refreshes.
Boost Your Grind: The New Elixirs
Two new consumable potions have been added to the game, perfect for maximizing your grinding efficiency. Both potions last for 10 minutes.
- Fragments Elixir: Increases the drop rate of fragments from all NPCs by 20%.
- Materials Elixir: Increases the drop rate of materials from all NPCs by 20%. Be sure to pop one of these elixirs before a long grinding session or before you and your crew take down the Rip Commander to make the most of your time.
Summer Gacha Gets a Refresh
The limited-time Summer Gacha has also received an update. The popular Eagle Skin now has three new, incredible-looking color variations available to roll for:
- Matrix Skin: A sleek, vibrant green version.
- Requiem Skin: A menacing black and red variant.
- Glacier Skin: A cool, ice-themed blue and white version. The Summer Gacha is only available for a limited time, so be sure to try your luck at getting these new skins before they’re gone!
How to Unlock Sharkman Karate Hidden Abilities
For masters of martial arts, this is the update you’ve been waiting for. The method for unlocking the hidden abilities for the Sharkman Karate fighting style is now in the game, and it requires a true test of skill.
Finding the Master
To begin your training, you must find the Sharkman Master NPC. Interact with him, and after a bit of dialogue, you can choose to “Start Training.”
The Challenge: A Gauntlet of Duels
Unlocking the abilities requires you to defeat the Sharkman Master in a series of one-on-one arena matches. You will have to progress through a number of “stages,” starting with the white stage. As you progress, the fights will become progressively more difficult, with the Master using more powerful moves and having increased health and damage. You must clear every single stage of this challenge to prove your worth.
The Reward: Unlocking Your Potential
Once you have successfully defeated the Master in all of his challenge stages, you will be rewarded with the full set of hidden abilities for the Sharkman Karate fighting style. This is a purely skill-based challenge that will test your combat prowess, so be sure to learn the NPC’s attack patterns and use your best gear to come out on top.
