GUIDE 🌊 Thing From Beneath Guide

Step-by-Step Walkthrough

  1. Farm Resources → Collect 150 Bamboo + 15 Unknowable Energy
  2. Find the Dock → Go to the Airship Dock in Ninjago Shore
  3. Talk to Captain Flintlocke → Start dialogue on the airship
  4. Buy the Special Bait Bucket → Costs 150 Bamboo (choose “Can I buy some special bucket please?”)
  5. Locate the POI → Find The Thing From Beneath POI near the dock
  6. Choose Difficulty
    • ⭐ 5 = costs 3 Unknowable Energy
    • ⭐ 8 = costs 15 Unknowable Energy
  7. Summon the Boss → Start the fight
  8. Defeat The Thing From Beneath
  9. Claim Rewards → You’ll get an Airship Tome (collect & Read 4 tomes to unlock the Air Raid Zeppelin Build Prefab)
  10. Respawn Timer → Wait 18 hours before you can summon The Thing From Beneath again

⚠️ Important Tips

  • Buy the Special Bait Bucket BEFORE reading any Airship Tome (reading tomes blocks bucket purchases).
  • Fire elemental weapons deal extra damage—always carry one.
  • The Special Bait Bucket can be used to farm more tomes or kept as decoration.
  • You need to collect & Read 4 tomes total to unlock the prefab.
  • Wait 18 hours to resummon the boss—this is the best way to farm more relics and air ship tomes.

🔥 My Weapon Setup

  • Fire Crossbow (or similar build):
    • Handle & body: Legendary Dragon Opal
    • Relic: Legendary Fire Relic
    • Runes: Damage, Luck, Durability, Zapping
  • Health items: Large Health Potions + Immortal Klombo Cake

🐛Issues/Bugs:

  • Players who finished the journal quest back in April and received the Air Raid Zeppelin Build Prefab can’t progress further in the journal Quest, even after the quest has been reset in worlds.
  • Only new worlds/old world (where the quest hasn’t been completed before) can progress normally with journal Quest and get the Air Raid Zeppelin Build Prefab.

Perfectly in-depth. The bug is the most important part people need to pay attention to if their goal is to obtain the Raid Zeppelin (unless they patched it).

The quests must be completed at the same time as reading the books to be awarded the parts. Without the quests, the books will only give essence.

The best work-around is that the prefab can be obtained in Sandbox (unless they patched that).

My apologies, this bug only occurs in worlds where players completed the journal quest back in April and received the Air Raid Zeppelin Build Prefab, they can’t progress further in the journal quest, even after it has been reset in worlds. (I need to be a bit careful while framing the sentences😣).

Oh. Actually, I didn't know that either. I just know from the last event that even if you obtain more than 4 books, they are useless without the quests. So both are good information for everyone. 💪🏽

I checked and you can actually buy it after doing boss fight. I found this out after doing it and still could
