Pearl Sources and Reward Conditions

Source Pearl reward How to collect it
Quick Contract 5 Complete its objective in Quests → Contracts, then claim the reward.
Medium Contract 8 Complete and claim the Contract.
Long Contract 12 Complete and claim the Contract.
Lucky Spin Possible +100 or +250 prize Open Spin when your free spin is ready; one becomes available every 30 minutes. Other reward types are also on the wheel.
Perfect Reel or Bait Memory Bronze: 10; Silver: 20; Gold: 35 Finish a reward round and collect the medal reward.
Fishing Pearls earned while fishing Keep fishing alongside your other objectives.
Boss encounters Depends on the encounter and reward outcome Collect the reward after a successful encounter.

Contracts are a useful starting point for a specific Pearl target: their listed rewards let you plan around completed objectives, and Fisherman catches also count. See Contract objectives and claiming rewards for the full task flow.

Use ready free Lucky Spins alongside other activities, but do not budget around landing a Pearl prize. For medal rewards, Perfect Reel and Bait Memory offer higher Pearl payouts at higher medal tiers. Perfect Reel has a daily reward counter: a round uses one opportunity from its starting allowance of 10.

Boss payouts need their encounter conditions. A Megalodon victory with 150 damage and third place in damage awarded 400 Pearls. A Kraken victory with 18 damage, rank 3 of 6 and 70% of the highest net damage listed 100 Pearls. A Hollow King netting reward also listed 100 Pearls. These are individual reward outcomes, not guaranteed payouts for every fight.

Your Pearl balance survives Rebirth, so you can keep building toward a purchase across resets. Mystery Clam requires an upfront Pearl purchase; its random rewards are covered under Pearl bonuses and targeted purchases.

Today's Deals refreshes daily, displays a refresh countdown and allows one purchase of each offer per day. Compare the discounted price with the regular price before spending.

The following are two different offer sets. Use the prices in your current Deals menu when buying; the sets below are not a single simultaneous sale.

A discount is most useful when it reduces the cost of something you already want. Keep your savings for a Charm or another target if the day's consumables do not help your current goal.

Permanent Charms and First Purchases

Open Pearl Shop → Charms to compare the next-level bonus, price and level limit. Charm bonuses are permanent and survive Rebirth. The tab has 24 total upgrade levels.

For later purchases, use the next-level effect and cost shown in the shop.

  • Choose Tide Charm when net capacity limits your fishing. Its benefit addresses how much your net can hold, making it a practical first purchase when you regularly fill the net.
  • Choose Night Charm when offline earnings matter most. It supports the time you spend away from the game. The money and showcases guide explains the wider offline-income rules.
  • Choose Pearl Charm when fishing is an important Pearl source for you. Its bonus specifically affects fishing Pearls; it does not increase Contract or minigame rewards.

Two other Charm upgrade options offer +2% luck for 500 Pearls and +3% showcase income for 500 Pearls. Favor luck for a fishing-luck goal or showcase income when increasing your displayed fish earnings is the priority.

What to Spend Pearls On

For long-term progression, start with a useful Charm. Its permanent benefit keeps working through Rebirth. A targeted consumable can take priority when it improves a valuable fish or directly advances the collection goal you are working on.

Your goal Suggested purchase Why it fits
Lasting player progress A Charm matched to your main activity You retain the bonus through Rebirth.
More pets Ocean Crates Each crate gives a random pet; bundles lower the average Pearl cost when you want several.
Improve a valuable showcase fish Size Tonic Permanently adds 5%–10% size, with up to three uses per fish; larger fish earn more.
Try for a better mutation Mutation Reroll with Mutation Lock Reroll can downgrade a mutation; Lock protects the next reroll and is consumed on that reroll.
Fill missing species Index Compass For 10 minutes, previously discovered fish can become missing species of the same rarity.
Add extra catches Rarity Lure Adds one fish to each of the next three reel-ins, two rarity tiers below your net's maximum.
Chase a weekly limited fish Weekly Lure Doubles its catch chance for 15 minutes; use it when a weekly limited fish is available.
Improve a pet you already want to keep Pet Treat Adds one pet level, up to Level 10.
Share a bonus or start an event Boosts Benefits the server rather than just your own setup.
Change your net's appearance Moonpearl Net A cosmetic purchase with no added stats.

Buying pets with Pearls

Ocean Crates can also come from rewards, so buying them is optional. In the Pearl Shop, one costs 1,000 Pearls, three cost 2,500, and ten cost 7,500. The shop labels the bundles as 17% and 25% savings respectively. Buy a bundle when you already want multiple random pets; compare Ocean and Abyss Crate rewards and acquisition routes before committing a large balance.

Shared events and cosmetics

Call a Wave Rush costs 3,000 Pearls, Pearl Rain costs 5,000, and Call the Megalodon costs 7,500 with a Rebirth 2+ requirement. These shared server purchases are limited to once per week for each type, and other players can see who paid. Choose them when you want the group benefit or encounter; see server boosts and events for their full rules.

Moonpearl Net costs 5,000 Pearls and changes appearance without adding stats. Its November Monthly Exclusive offer ends with that month. Buy it for the look, with skin equipping instructions available separately.

If no purchase serves a current goal, keep your Pearls for a later upgrade or useful daily offer.

Pearl Bonuses and Targeted Purchases

Choose a Pearl bonus according to the income it affects.

Bonus Effect and scope
2x Pearls game pass Doubles all Pearl income.
VIP offer with Money and Pearls benefits Gives permanent +10% Money and Pearls and can stack with other passes.
Pearl Charm Its first upgrade adds 5% to fishing Pearls.
Pearl Rain Doubles fishing Pearls for the whole server for 10 minutes.
Pearl Harvester Doubles Pearls earned while the event is active.
Admin Abuse Includes a temporary 2x Pearls bonus while that bonus is active.

Use fishing-specific bonuses during fishing sessions. If your immediate plan is to claim Contracts or earn minigame medals, Pearl Charm and Pearl Rain do not boost those rewards. See river events and server boosts for event effects and timing.

Is Mystery Clam a way to make Pearls?

Mystery Clam is a paid random reward purchase. Its possible rewards include Pearls, bait, pet crates, lures and locks. The named 150-Pearl jackpot is below its 600-Pearl regular price, and also below either 450- or 390-Pearl daily offer listed above. That Pearl prize does not repay the purchase price.

Choose a Clam for its random reward pool. If you want a specific change to a fish, pet or collection, a targeted tool gives you a clearer purpose for the purchase. Bought tools go to Cooler → Other; the Pearl Shop tools guide covers their use, full effects and reroll protection.
