Preferred Fluids for Capturing:

💦Dragon Semen

1. Before you begin to upgrade your Shark essence level, make sure you have the Formurian Pond, as well as the Vulwarg Kennel. You will also need to have the Cove of Rapture unlocked to access the Sharks.

   If you plan to capture your Sharks with fluids, you will need to have some Dragon Semen on hand to capture your Sharks. The Sharks that you will want to capture the most are the ones that have the Juicy trait.

   
   Essence 1 to Essence 2

2. In order to produce a Shark offspring with C Libido (or higher) stat, I recommend crossbreeding a Vulwarg that has C Libido (or higher) with your Shark. If you need to capture Vulwarg that have C Libido (or higher), you will need to use Titan Semen to capture Lykos Vulwargs, and Foxen Milk to capture Wulfs; you can either purchase these fluids from Camilla the Goblin or Amber-Mae the Ayrshire in town using Orgasmium currency, or you can harvest them from your captured Titan (futa) and Foxen (female). It make take a few tries to get the Shark that you need, but once you get one with C Libido, go turn it in to The Emissary in town.

   I recommend keeping your highest level WILD captured Shark to use later as your Level 42 Turn In, and release any other unwanted Shark offspring that do not have the Juicy trait to ensure that you have plenty of room for your next batch of offspring.

   Essence 2 to Essence 3

3. Now you want to pair off all of your Juicy Rank I Sharks together in the Breeding Yard, so you can try to produce an offspring (or few) with Juicy Rank II. Be sure to try to make at least two groups of breeding partners to ensure that you don't run into any issues with them being related when you are breeding them. I also recommend keeping all of the Juicy Rank II offspring until the end.

   Essence 3 to Essence 4

4. If you're able to, pair up your highest leveled WILD captured Shark with your Breeder character, or with another nephelym that has the Kindhearted trait (if you have one), and level it up until it reaches Level 42.

   Essence 4 to Essence 5

5. Just like before, now you want to pair all of your Juicy Rank II Sharks together in the Breeding Yard, so you can try to produce an offspring with Juicy Rank III. Again, this sometimes can take some time, but just keep at it until you get one with Juicy Rank III.
   
   If you end up producing a lot of Juicy Rank II Sharks, then try turning in one of your Juicy Rank II & Level 42 Sharks into The Emissary; Then, you can go back out to Cove of Rapture and see if you can find some new Sharks with Juicy Rank II. Sometimes that helps end the cycle of producing only Juicy Rank II offspring.

6. Once you get your Juicy Rank III Shark, you can now go turn in the remaining required Sharks to finish upgrading your essence level.

⭐Additional Tips⭐

1️⃣ Turn off Wild Sex
➡️ In the game settings, toggle off Wild Sex and use fluids to capture your Sharks instead, if you want to avoid being pounced on, thus saving some time if you're solely focusing on upgrading the essence levels.

2️⃣Utilize the cheats menu to save time and receive immediate resources:
➡️ Add Money
➡️ Infinite Lust
➡️ Win Wild Sex

3️⃣Breeder and Kindhearted Trait
➡️ Using your Breeder character can level up your Essence Level 42 nephelym and Breeder at the same time!
➡️ Finding a wild nephelym with the 🤍Kindhearted trait to breed your Essence Level 42 nephelym with will make getting them to level 42 easier and faster because the Kindhearted trait gives more xp to the nephelym that you're trying to level.

🤍 Kindhearted: Gains (30/40/50)% less XP, but gives (50/100/150)% more to mates.
