Wreckroot gear

The Wreckroot grew through a galleon, and everything it drops is cut from that wreck: hull timber, ship’s iron and a keel. This page covers the gear you earn from the Wreckroot and the Root Delve, and how to upgrade it.

The Wreckroot

“It held a ship together. Now it breaks them.”

The keel the Wreckroot grew around, sawn free and banded in ship’s iron.

StatValue
Base itemNetherite sword
Attack damage11
Attack speed1.4 per second
Durability2,031, fire resistant

That is a little more damage per second than a netherite sword, in a slow, heavy swing.

How to get it: finish The Wreckroot’s Last Stand, step 36 of the Path of Mastery (sink the Wreckroot and secure Jungle Essence). It also pays $500,000, 500 Coins and 25,000 XP, and opens the rank up to Reefkeeper.

Hull timber bolted with salvage iron. Every piece is netherite underneath, with its own look.
