Defeating the Mermaid Hunter
The Mermaid Hunter made his home in a cave on the easternmost area of the Beach. His cave entrance is marked on the map of the Beach.
Getting the Quest
The quest is received from the Mayor in Shillatown once you have at least 160 Wisdom and a Wall Score of 1,250.
Completing the Quest
The Mermaid Hunter hits for a maximum of 1,650 points of damage with its 1 attack and isn't aligned with any of the elemental spheres.
He has 1,100,000 points of life and will absorb approximately 20% of physical attacks, and 5% magic resistance, so expect a longer fight. i.e. Have lots of food ready. (Bp suggests Pegasus Wings if you are a Fighter, AA suggests Ogre Pound Cake if you are a Mage.)
Reward
Defeating the Mermaid Hunter will earn the character approximately 4,200,000 points of experience, 7,300 pieces of gold.
After that, return to the Mayor in Shillatown and your character will also earn 300 million experience points, 20 Quest Points, and also a Mermaid Scale.
