Summoning Flare
The Summoning Flare, or Meg Signal Flare is a Quest Item used during The Shrouded Deep.
A total of four Summoning Flares exist — one for each common Megalodon — and are color coordinated to match the Megalodon it can summon.
Mechanics
Players can obtain the Flare from Belle along with a corresponding Megalodon Effigy, Mysterious Note, and an island map showing the location of a cannon to be used in conjunction with the flare to summon the Megalodon.
The flare must be equipped from the Quest Radial in order to interact with the respective cannon emplacement.
Once loaded into the cannon, there will be a short pause before being fired into the sky and creating a spotlight effect over the ocean, forcing the respective megalodon to surface for combat.
Trivia
- The Summoning Flares have three Skeleton Runes that translate to, "Shark Waking Below".
- Merrick is the creator of the Summoning Flares.
- Belle had to take the Flares away from Merrick after he kept using them to mop up spilled Grog.
- The notification graphic for the Summoning Flare will always use the Hungering One's Summoning Flare, regardless of current Megalodon type.
