Überblick

In erster Linie, this map features a high degree of determinism, ensuring consistent placement of pots and opponents. Infolge, it greatly simplifies the process of determining the most favorable route.

Throughout my exploration, I encountered only three variations of the map, with two prominent ones emerging as the dominant options. Though a third variation exists, it appears infrequently, hindering my ability to replicate it. Folglich, this guide will focus exclusively on the first two variations.

White shark route

At the start you’ll see a pot:

Go down and you’ll see a shark. Go left and enter the iceberg

Then you’ll see this bifurcation, take the left path first

Go up until you reach the top of the path. You’ll find another pot

Now come back to the initial bifurcation and go down. Pot there

Keep going down. Pot there:

Now take the left and a pot will be there:

Go left to where the mirror is and the down to exit the iceberg

After that there won’t be more pots on this side of the map. You need to go all right until you reach the right side.

My recommended route is to follow the bottom of the iceberg from outside until you see a floor on the right, you’ll go undetected from hostile foes

Go to the rocks on the right and pot there:

Now go all the way up to the final pot:

Now you can come back to the boat by going where the previous pot was and all the way to the right to a mirror.

Narwhal route

You’ll see a narwhal at the beginning

Go all the way left and a pot should be there:

Now keep going down

Pot there

Now go all the way left until you reach a mirror.

Pot there:

Go all the way down left:

Pot there:

After that there won’t be more pots on this side of the map. You need to go all right until you reach the right side.

My recommended route is to follow the bottom of the iceberg from outside until you see a floor on the right, so you go undetected from hostile foes

Go to the rocks on the right and pot there:

From there keep going right and you will find the last pot at the top of some rocks

Then go down to the mirror and repeat.
