Dunkleosteus

Dunkleosteus is a Fishing Item in NieR and NieR Replicant ver.1.22474487139....

Description

"A legendary saltwater fish often referred to as a living fossil."

Location

  • Caught at the pier in Seafront, using either Sardines or Lure as bait. For tips on fishing, a list of fish, and how to catch them, see Fishing (NieR).
    • Sharks and Blue Marlin may also be caught at this location when fishing with Sardines.

Use

  • Can be sold for 12500 Gold.

Notes

  • The "Fisherman's Gambit" quest chain serves as the only source of Fishing Skill increase. Attempting to catch anything larger than a Shaman Fish without sufficient fishing skill would cause the line to snap in a near instant.

Trivia

  • Dunkleosteus is a genus of prehistoric fish which lived from 382 million to 358 million years ago. The reason why this extinct fish is extant in the setting of NieR is unknown.
  • A Dunkleosteus is shown attempting to eat a disembodied Emil during the novella Around the World in 80 Days.
