Roblox’s Blox Fruits puts players in the role of a pirate on a treasure-hunting adventure. With many levels, enemies, and bosses to take on, Blox Fruits can be a very entertaining pastime for players who do their homework or a source of frustrating encounters for those who don’t.

This is because your Player Level is an important metric that dictates the fights you can take on with a chance of winning. However, some enemies pose a threat even if you are at the right level to fight them. The Fishman Lord you find in the First Sea is the best example of this.

Wait for His Final Form

Blox Fruits’ anime inspirations are there for all of its players to see. Deep in the palace of Underwater City, the Fishman Lord brings a surprising mechanic to your encounter with him. His pallid complexion hides the ability to transform into a monster at low health, which returns a significant portion of his lost HP to him, allowing him to continue the fight.

As a level 425 enemy, this transformation is not to be scoffed at if you’re a new player to the game, as he uses it in tandem with his deadly trident and area-of-effect water pulse move. If the Fishman Lord is proving particularly troublesome, read on to learn more about how to defeat him.

When you find the Fishman Lord atop his throne in the palace at Underwater City, you will notice that his speed and agility make it hard to find opportunities to attack. His Trident is deadly at any range, as he can directly teleport to its location after he throws it. If you are unfortunate enough to take a hit from these throws, the Fishman Lord can easily shift the fight’s momentum in his favor.

Even worse is his Water Pulse ability, which makes it difficult to land attacks of your own, considering that he uses the attack any time you try to close the distance. It pushes you away while also leaving you vulnerable to his Trident. It is evident that staying at range is the best way to approach this fight.

Use your best long-range attacks to whittle away at his health while dodging his Trident attacks and ensuring that you keep a safe distance from him. When he is down to about 20% of his total health, watch out for his transformation attack. Aside from the aforementioned HP regen, the Fishman Lord also gets a significant boost to his damage output and a demonic new appearance that should give even the most seasoned pirates pause.

However, a simple trick to make this part of the fight for manageable is to use the environment to your advantage. Like all other enemies in Blox Fruits, getting a wall between the two of you can negate the Fishman Lord’s attacks while you can take him down from a position of safety. A flurry of melee strikes or long-range attacks can quickly tilt the odds in your favor, allowing you to take him down with ease.
