Island 4 field route

Rocks Island walkthrough

Tuna is not the reward. Tuna is the next bait.

Buy the Professional Boss Lure, defeat Tuna, and keep its whole body. Place the Tuna on dry ground near cover to summon Albatross, then return the Albatross Head to the islander inside the shop for Volcano coordinates.

Do it in this order

  1. 01

    Arrive

    Follow the Island 4 Radar marker

    Finish the Pufferfish Fin hand-in on Desert Island, then follow the new Radar coordinates to the rocky fourth island.

  2. 02

    Quest

    Speak to the islander inside the shop

    Start the Terrorizing Bird request before spending the expensive boss lure. The islander is your final Albatross Head hand-in.

  3. 03

    Prepare

    Buy Professional gear and ranged damage

    Professional Lure covers the regular pool. The $1,200 Professional Boss Lure is the Tuna trigger. Bring food and a long-range weapon; the Sniper Rifle makes the bird phase much safer.

  4. 04

    Tuna

    Cast the Professional Boss Lure

    Defeat Tuna while strafing across its jumping path. When it drops, keep the entire body. Do not sell it, cook it or eat it—the body is the next boss bait.

  5. 05

    Bird

    Place Tuna on dry ground near cover

    Set the defeated Tuna beside the shop or another roofed area. Albatross arrives shortly after. Stay close to cover and shoot between its diving and projectile passes.

  6. 06

    Leave

    Return the Albatross Head

    Collect the Head rather than only the ordinary Meat Chunks. Carry it to the islander inside the shop to finish the quest and reveal Volcano Island.

Common mistakes

The Professional Lure did not catch Tuna+

You bought the regular lure. Tuna requires the full Professional Boss Lure, which costs $1,200 at the Rocks shop.

I sold, cooked or ate the Tuna+

Catch another Tuna with another Professional Boss Lure. The defeated body is the Albatross trigger, so it must stay intact.

Albatross is not appearing+

Place the defeated Tuna on dry ground and wait nearby. Position it close to the shop so you can move under the roof when the fight begins.

Albatross escaped before I killed it+

Its white escape bar ran out. You need another Tuna to restart. Stay near cover, but step out and damage it during every safe return pass.

Volcano is still missing after the fight+

Find and pick up the Albatross Head, then return it to the islander inside the shop. Meat Chunks do not complete the quest.
