The Harpoon is a ranged Weapon in the Shipwrecked DLC. It can be obtained from an exploding White Whale Carcass or can be found in X Marks the Spot treasure chests. When this weapon is used to attack, it will be thrown by the player and deal 200 damage upon hitting the target. The Harpoon will drop next to its target, and must be picked up in order to be used again.

TipsEdit

• Due to its high damage, the Harpoon is a good choice for getting rid of high health Mobs that are dangerous to fight in melee.
• A Harpoon can be used to destroy Beehives in a single shot, which does not give a chance for the Bees to defend their home.
• Elephant Cacti take two hits from a Harpoon to destroy. With 10 uses, each Harpoon allows gathering 5 Elephant Cacti, making it an efficient ranged weapon to collect the cacti from the Volcano.

Trivia Edit

• The Harpoon can be seen stabbed in the White Whale's head, which may be a reference to the novel Moby-Dick.
