Jormuntide

Strengths & Recommended Usage

Recommended usage guide

Recommended passive skills by use case: combat, riding, base, and more.

The Sea Emperor passive that wild Jormuntide has is a powerful skill that increases Water-type damage by 30%. With Water-type enhancement, the excellent Alpha passive exists, so priority may drop slightly, but using both Alpha and Sea Emperor can be good in some cases.

• •A very large Dragon-type Pal. Appears as a Lv. 55 boss; breeding is the only other way to obtain it. In server multiplayer, fights over it are likely, so capture it if you can spare the effort. If it is too difficult, obtain it through breeding.
• •At a base, it shines as a Watering specialist with suitability 7. Because Watering is its only suitability, rank-ups (condensation) always raise Watering efficiently. At rank 3, Watering reaches the maximum of 10. It performs well as a mid-to-late-game Pal, but for completionist players, Jormuntide sits idle when there is no Watering work, so some may prefer Jellroy or Jelliette with Applied Studies instead. Early-game Pals obtainable through fishing such as Azurobe and Ghangler can also be used instead of Jormuntide (with Applied Studies or rank-ups assumed).
• •Stats are quite high, but because its body is so large, multi-hit Active Skills register across its entire hitbox, increasing damage taken. That lowers its rating as a combat Pal. Boss individuals are even larger, so wild Pal attacks can sometimes one-shot them.
• •It also works well as a water mount for ocean exploration. However, its size raises the camera and makes salvage difficult. It can also run aground in shallow water. Surfent, Ghangler, and Neptilius are also recommended.
