This guide provides the complete walkthrough: from accepting the quest to finding the boss lair and claiming your powerful reward.

How to Start the “Terrible Tyrant” Grand Hunt

Your hunt begins not with an NPC, but with a public notice.

  • Location: Travel to the area of Bonebottom.
  • The Quest Board: Find and inspect the Quest Board in this region. Among the postings, you will find one labeled “Terrible Tyrant” or “Grand Hunt,” which details the Skull Tyrant.
  • The Objective: Your goal is to find this powerful boss within the Marrow region and defeat it.

The path to the boss is perilous and easy to miss. Follow these steps carefully.

  1. Enter the Marrow: From Bonebottom, head to the right into the Marrow region.
  2. Find the Resting Bench: As you progress, you will find a Resting Bench in the top-right area of a large chamber. REST HERE. This boss is challenging, and this bench will be your checkpoint.
  3. The New Path: From the bench, look for a wall that was previously unclimbable at the very start of the game. You can now ascend this wall with your acquired abilities.
  4. Traverse the Dangerous Ledges: At the top, proceed to the left. You will encounter spiky enemies. Deal with them carefully from a distance if possible, as the narrow platforms make combat risky.
    • Pro Tip: “Bait” their attacks. Let them extend their spikes, then move in for a safe strike while they are vulnerable.
  5. The Hidden Tunnel: Continue left and upwards until you find a breakable wall. BE CAREFUL. Breaking this wall often triggers a monster that will aggressively chase you into the small space. Try to lure it out or eliminate it quickly before proceeding.
  6. The Final Ascent: After dealing with the ambush, head up and to the right through the newly revealed tunnel. You may find some resources here to top up your Silk threads.
  7. The Boss Arena: At the very top of this path, you will enter a new arena. The sign you’ve arrived? A massive, imposing skull dominates the background. This is the lair of the Skull Tyrant.

The Reward: Heavy Rosary Necklace

The Skull Tyrant is a formidable foe, and the fight will demand your full attention. Once you emerge victorious:

  1. Collect the Drop: Ensure you pick up the unique item the boss drops upon defeat.
  2. Return to Bonebottom: Travel back to the Quest Board where you started the hunt.
  3. Turn In the Quest: Inspect the board again to complete the “Terrible Tyrant” Grand Hunt.

Your reward for this feat of strength is the Heavy Rosary Necklace. This valuable accessory likely increases your maximum health or provides a significant defensive boost, making it an essential item for surviving the even greater challenges that await deeper in Pharloom.
