FOREST / GREEN ISLAND FIGHT

How to Fish Giant Piranha: pistol, snacks, then dynamite

The Forest story boss is not a rod check. Sweep three ground leeches, get Modified Leech, then treat the fight as a resource loop: pistol the small piranha, eat them when hurt, sell them when healthy, dynamite when they stack.

Community compile: 3DM 渔力全开 Giant Piranha notes (绅士一枚). Cross-checked with Dinnertime and the 3/3 leech quest. Last checked 26 Aug 2026.

WATCH THE PACK

Adds never stop. The gun has to stay up.

The trailer’s fish-combat is this fight: pistol the minions, eat or sell them, then throw dynamite only when the boss and the pack clump.

  • Leeches are ground pickups.
  • Shotgun reloads lose the wave.
  • Blast radius hits you too.

Use the walkthrough for timing. The stills on this page are the local screenshots that match the 3DM / Steam scenes, not stock filler from another island.

Why pistol, not shotgun
  1. Forest shops unlock both. The shotgun dumps two shells and reloads.
  2. The boss keeps spawning small piranha. You need a gun that stays on target.
  3. Eat a dead minion to heal. If you are topped off, throw it to the shopkeeper for coins.
  4. Spend those coins on dynamite. Throw when the boss and the pack clump in phase two, then back off — the blast hits you too.

Leeches are still pickups

The 0/3 counter is grass and shoreline, not bites. Hand them to the lake NPC for Modified Leech, then cast. Killing the boss without the skeleton talk does not paint Desert on the Radar.

Stock dynamite or buy mid-fight

Pre-buying explosives is faster. Buying after you sell minions is safer if cash is tight. Either way, wait for the clump. A dynamite thrown at a lone boss wastes the blast radius.
