How To Solve Strage Eel?

Attack The Bubbles With Any Underwater Abilities

You need to use the underwater abilities you can adsorb from Xenochromatic Creatures to break the bubbles around the Strange Eel. Any of them will work for this.

You Also Need To Attack Them In A Pattern

Some locations have two Strange Eels around them. You will have to attack them at the same time to clear the challenge and collect the chest. The Jellyfish ability is the recommended ability for this since it creates a huge explosion.

Strange Eel - Rewards

Get Common / Exquisite Treasure Chests

When you clear the Strange Eel, a chest will appear. The type you get is dependent per location.
