The Reef Titan is one of Fisch’s new exotic hunt targets, introduced alongside the Tidefall update (version 1.67). It behaves much like other large event fish such as the Megalodon or Kraken, but it’s locked to a specific arena inside Tidefall and only shows up during its dedicated server event.
Where Reef Titan spawns in Fisch
Reef Titan only appears in the Coral Bastion, a coral-filled sub‑area inside Tidefall. The pool that matters sits at GPS (2650, -1105, 873). That pool is the entire arena for the encounter – if you are not standing at that water when the event runs, you won’t see the Titan.
To reach it, you first need access to Tidefall itself, which unlocks through the underwater cave that leads into the new region added in the 1.67 “Tidefall” update. Once you load into Tidefall, the route to Coral Bastion is straightforward.
Step 1: From the main Tidefall hub, locate the Drowned Appraiser NPC. This character is your primary landmark for orienting yourself inside the new area.
Step 2: Face east while standing at the Drowned Appraiser and walk straight in that direction. You should begin to see dense clusters of bright corals ahead of you.
Step 3: Continue moving into this colorful zone until you reach a small pool surrounded by coral structures. This pool is the Coral Bastion and is the only place where Reef Titan can actually spawn.
While you wait for the event, you can also interact with the Coral Bastion for other purposes. The area is tied to the new Coral Rod and Coral Spear introduced with Tidefall, and it sits inside the broader network of Tidefall content that includes new rods, spears, items, and NPCs.
How the Reef Titan Hunt event works
Reef Titan is not a normal ambient fish. It appears only during a timed server event called Reef Titan Hunt, added to the global hunt rotation with update 1.67.
When a Reef Titan Hunt starts on your server, a notification pops up at the top of the screen stating that a Reef Titan has been spotted in the area. That message is your only warning, and it is global to the server – anyone can act on it.
Step 1: As soon as you see the Reef Titan notification, stop whatever you are doing and fast‑travel or move toward Tidefall if you are not already there.
Step 2: Once inside Tidefall, run straight back to the Coral Bastion pool at GPS (2650, -1105, 873). Do not waste time fishing elsewhere; the Titan is tied specifically to that water.
Step 3: Cast directly into the Coral Bastion pool while the event is active. Reef Titan counts as an exotic event fish, so hook windows are limited, and missing a reel can mean waiting until the hunt cycles again.
The hunt behaves broadly like other exotic hunts, such as the Megalodon Hunt or the Kraken Hunt. The server runs the event, broadcasts one clear notification, and then the fish can be hooked only within its designated arena until the event window ends. Reef Titan can be caught multiple times across different hunts; there is no one‑time lockout.
Recommended rods and gear for Reef Titan
Reef Titan sits in the “exotic” tier, so under‑geared players will struggle to land it even if they find the right location and catch window. A strong rod and good enchants significantly reduce the number of failed attempts.
For rods, the current top‑end option is the Fabulous Rod, which sits at the top of most tier lists because of its overall stats and handling. If you already own it, use it for Reef Titan. If you do not, two alternatives perform well enough to make the fight manageable:
- Ruinous Oath rod – a powerful choice that trades slightly below Fabulous Rod but remains more than capable for exotic hunts.
- Rod of the Forgotten Fang – another late‑game rod with strong performance that is suitable for tackling event fish.
Beyond the base rod, enchants are important. Reef Titan is tuned so that low‑tier, un‑enchanted rods can make the reeling minigame drag on or fail entirely, especially under less‑than‑ideal network or frame‑rate conditions. Upgrading your primary hunt rod with high‑value enchants before focusing on Reef Titan attempts saves time in the long run.
Best conditions to catch Reef Titan
Many exotic fish in Fisch have specific preferences for weather, time, and season. Reef Titan is no exception, but its known preferences are currently narrow.
| Preference type | Reef Titan setting |
|---|---|
| Favorite bait | None specified |
| Time of day | No specific requirement |
| Weather | Clear |
| Season | Spring |
Clear weather combined with the Spring season gives the best conditions for triggering Reef Titan in its hunt window. There is no listed bait or time‑of‑day restriction, which simplifies preparation. Instead of micromanaging lures or particular hours, focus on being in the right place with the right rod whenever a Reef Titan Hunt notification appears during clear Spring conditions.
How often you can catch Reef Titan
Reef Titan is not a one‑and‑done collectible. You can hook and land it multiple times across different Reef Titan Hunts. That keeps it relevant as a hunt target even after you have completed your bestiary entry, and opens it up as a repeatable goal for players who enjoy chasing exotic fish or farming specific drops tied to hunt encounters.
Because it shares the generalized “hunt” system with Plesiosaur Hunt, Pliosaur Hunt, and Omnithal Hunt, Reef Titan becomes part of a rotating set of large‑scale encounters inside Tidefall. For players building out top‑tier rods and spears or filling late‑game bestiary pages, responding quickly to that notification and staying geared for exotics is the main way to keep the Tidefall hunts efficient.
Handled this way, Reef Titan becomes less of a roadblock in the bestiary and more of a recurring event that slots naturally into the broader Tidefall loop of rods, spears, and hunts.
