Two-player combat and exploration
The siege turtle lets one player drive while another uses the gunner seat. Its unlock begins with a Turtle Egg from Dragon's End and continues through Arborstone collections.
Collection walkthrough
Complete the Dragon's End meta event, The Battle for the Jade Sea, or buy a Turtle Egg from the Peddler in Dragon's End for Writs of Dragon's End.
Speak to Rota to begin Starting Small. Deliver the requested food items to Fidget, then return to Rota for the next stage.
Complete Getting Stronger with fish fillets and Suiting Up with Canthan event and vendor materials. Return to Rota after the final stage to unlock the mount.
After the unlock
Field note · Starting Small uses raw vegetables rather than cooked food—Fidget creates the required items in Arborstone.
Full unlock guide
Finish The Battle for the Jade Sea in Dragon's End for the Turtle Egg, or exchange 200 Writs of Dragon's End with the local Peddler. Keep the egg and travel to Arborstone to begin the actual mount collection.
Speak with Rota and then Fidget outside Arborstone. Bring 250 kale, 150 carrots, 250 lettuce, and 250 strawberries. Fidget turns these raw ingredients into the collection items; no cooking discipline is required.
Return to Rota after the produce stage. This chapter asks for several fish fillets. Gather, purchase, or fish the requested varieties, use Fidget to prepare them, then return to Rota to advance the story.
The final stage sends you around Cantha for nine components. Expect map events, two heart-vendor purchases, a leviathan kill, a Ministry of Security Strike or Gyala Delve alternative, and 25 unidentified dyes for the color selection.
Once all nine parts are complete, return to Rota in Arborstone. Finish the final dialogue to receive the account-wide Siege Turtle and its mastery line.
Final collection
Buy Turret Plans in New Kaineng, Thruster Plans in Echovald, and convert 25 unidentified dyes at Fidget for Saddle Color Selection.
Complete Aetherblade Assault in Seitung for the Turret Power Unit, help at the Forever Tree in Echovald for Alleola Oil, and defeat the Jade Maw event in Dragon's End for Luxon Tools.
Deluxe Leather Seating comes from an Adolescent Leviathan. The Thruster Control Unit comes from Ministry of Security Strike, with a Gyala Delve requisition-vendor alternative if that fits your account better.
Two-seat field manual
The Turtle accelerates instead of instantly reaching full speed. Take wide turns and use Jump Jets to clear terrain; moving quickly also improves ammunition generation for the gunner.
Open access when you want a passenger. The gunner operates Turtle Siege, can use Overdrive to improve handling, and later masteries add defensive and ammo tools.
The Turtle has a defiance bar and both riders are dismounted when it breaks. Keep an eye on health, avoid overcommitting into dangerous packs, and use your mount bond skills when necessary.
