Spawning[]
In order to spawn Darkbeard, the player needs to obtain a Fist of Darkness, an item unique to the Second Sea that functions similar to God's Chalice (exclusive to Third Sea). The Fist of Darkness can be obtained by killing a Sea Beast or finding one that spawns in a chest every 4 hours in a Second Sea server. Once the player has obtained a Fist of Darkness, head to the Dark Arena, which is found northeast of the Kingdom of Rose and in front of the Ice Castle. Once the player is there, head to the middle of the arena and walk into the altar to summon Darkbeard.
Upon summoning Darkbeard, the sky will turn black, a boss bar will show on top of the nearby players and everyone will be alerted with a System Message announcing in big, red letters: "The power of darkness has been unleashed".
Drops[]
Defeating Darkbeard will award anyone who at least did 10% damage with:
1,500.- 3 Levels (No matter what level the player is, with the exception of the Level Cap, 2550).
- Dark Fragment.

Trivia[]
- Darkbeard used to drop something called a Rare Artifact. However, this has been removed ever since Update 11 and was replaced with Fragments.
- The Rare Artifact was used for stat refunds and to change the users race from Tort.
- He shares the same face decal as The Saw.
- If the player kills him with 2x EXP activated they will get six levels instead of the standard three.
- As said on the top, the player must deal 10% damage to Darkbeard in order to get the levels and a 2% chance to earn the Dark Coat, and a 100% chance to earn a Dark Fragment.
- Darkbeard uses some moves from the old unawakened version of Dark.
Tips[]
- It is recommended to set your spawn point at Snow Mountain, Green Zone, Kingdom of Rose, or Ice Castle as they are close to the Dark Arena.
- It is recommended to have at least 5+ players to defeat him.
- It is recommended to use high damaging fruits like Rumble, Spider, or Venom. These fruits also have great stun and long range, which will be helpful for preventing Darkbeard from retaliating.
- Buddha is excellent against Darkbeard and could likely even solo him. M1 Spamming against him will be extremely effective, and using Flash Step to avoid Dark Bomb will help greatly. However, the hitbox is very easy to hit and is punishable and the user might be accidentally hit by other un-allied players, so it's best to ally when possible.
- Recommended Fighting Styles are Sharkman Karate, Death Step or Electric Claw as they do a lot of damage (especially if the player is a Buddha User)
- It's possible to solo Darkbeard, but it's recommended to keep a long distance so he cannot use his special attacks on the player, or use Buddha
- He uses a move of Dark every 2 seconds so keep moving around and dodge his attacks.
- He also uses Flash Step though he doesn't use it often and is able to spam his moves, so be careful, use common sense, and don't go rushing in, as it is easier to get killed, unless the player activates Water Body (V3 move of Shark race)
- When the player starts the raid, Darkbeard will despawn after 10 minutes so they need to kill him quickly.
- It is recommended to stay away from players when having the fist of darkness and are trying to get to Dark Arena (Unless the player has allied them) as there will be players that will try and kill the player, such as bounty hunters and if they succeed the fist of darkness will be gone from the user's inventory.
- It is also recommended to sky camp and attack it with long range move in mid air as most of it's moves are ground base.
