Sea of Thieves players have recently been brought a massive challenge in the form of The Shrouded Deep Adventure. This multi-chapter story brings players across the game map in a bid to summon and defeat one of the game's most intense bosses, the Shrouded Ghost. Because of this, players are going to need to put in a serious amount of work if they are looking to complete this adventure in Sea of Thieves.
As this adventure takes place over a large swath of Sea of Thieves map, it can be a bit of a challenge for people to make their way through it. On top of this, there are a significant amount of challenges between players and summoning the Shrouded Ghost. For those players who are looking complete this adventure and summon this boss, this guide is here to help.
Where To Start The Shrouded Deep?
The Shrouded Deep adventure begins at any outpost where Larinna can be found. She leans against the entrance of the pub and just happens to also be the location of the Black Market in Sea of Thieves. Choosing the bottom conversation option will point players to their next destination and start the adventure. This comes in the form of a piece of paper that asks players to head towards the quadrant M12 and locate a ship known as the Killer Whale.
This vessel has suffered quite the beating but both NPCs are alive and well onboard and players can pull right up alongside. Speaking with Belle, a memorable character in Sea of Thieves, and clicking the option to continue the adventure will do just that, prompting players to choose one of four Megalodons to summon.
How to Summon The Shrouded Ghost?
Belle explains that in order to summon the Shrouded Ghost, players first must hunt down a total of four Megalodon and summon them with the special Sea of Thieves summoning flares. For each one, the player will receive a summoning flare, a map and note showing where to fire that flare, and an effigy to store the soul of the defeated creature.
- Ancient Terror is located around Thieves' Haven at map grid M20.
- Crested Queen is located at Marauder's Arch near map grid Q3.
- Hungering One can be found at Mermaid's Hideaway at map grid B13.
- Shadowmaw can be located at ruby's Fall at map grid Y16.
Because of how far apart these Megalodons are and how difficult this type of enemy can be in Sea of Thieves, players are better off grouping up with friendly crews to complete this challenge. Each shark is a challenging fight even for veteran players and handling this all solo will cost a great deal of cannonballs, wood planks, and time. Either way, a victory will grant players the soul of that shark, and they will be able to head back to the Killer Whale and place it on the summoning table.
Any player in the world can add an effigy to the summoning table and, once all four have been added, there needs to be at least 5 pirates assembled to proceed. Once that number has been met, everyone has to play a special shanty "Summon the Megalodon" and the Shrouded Ghost will appear, starting the battle.
Sea of Thieves was released on March 20th, 2018, and is available for PC, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
