Trident

Sunken water chests and aquatic thrust mechanics

Retrieved from submerged Water Chests along the ocean floor or obtained from Ocean Crates, the Trident functions as a versatile nautical spear. Thrusting forward for 14 base melee damage, its physical reach keeps approaching enemies safely distant. Its physical tip penetrates through destructible cobwebs and weeds without interrupting the thrust animation. Crucially, holding the weapon while submerged in water grants enhanced aquatic mobility, lowering underwater gravity and boosting jump speed to make submerged swimming far swifter.

Spacing defense and godly modifier

Executing with an 31 use time at Slow cadence, the Trident provides heavy 6 knockback capable of halting charging ocean predators such as sharks and sea snails. Its multi-hit spearhead hitbox lets players hit enemies multiple times during a single thrust if properly spaced. Combining the Trident with a Flipper creates an effective kit for early ocean exploration and sunken salvage. Because spears cannot receive size modifications, Godly is the best prefix, maximizing damage, critical strike chance, and knockback.

Trivia

• Holding the Trident while pressing the jump key in deep water substantially reduces player sinking speed.
