Hint: Pick up an anchor in the waters of the Shark's Teeth Archipelago in the Straits of Devastation.

— In-game description

Acquisition[edit]

The Anchor is a bundle that can spawn randomly at a number of predetermined locations in Straits of Devastation. If a location does not yield the anchor, pick up the bundle at the location and then drop it again to force a respawn of another bundle 5 to 10 mins later. Some Anchors can be found floating close to the surface, as opposed to being found at the ocean floor. This item does not enter the inventory and instead added directly to the achievement collection.

Despite the hint's description, the Anchor does not need to be found within Shark's Teeth Archipelago to count towards the achievement. Some locations to try are:

Shark's Teeth Archipelago[edit]

  • In the southwest steps at Broken Spit at Waypoint (map icon).png Broken Spit Waypoint.
