What Phantom Harbor looks like
Foggy ghost docks with a lighthouse and wrecked ships.
Reaching Phantom Harbor is a big jump: the very first animal you usually catch here, the Ghost ($2Dc/s), already earns about 20000x a plain Scarecrow, the best animal of Harvest Fields.

Tips for Phantom Harbor
- Phantom Lobster (Tier 16) was the best food in the game before the Nuclear Wasteland update and is still the right bait for this zone.
- Phantom Harbor is wide – power from 5,200 to about 6,600 all lands inside it.
- Hunting the Ghost Pirate: land on the far edge of Phantom Harbor with your best food and save lucky throws for it. If you are already past Phantom Harbor, turn throw strength down with the gear icon.
- Move on once your throws reach Nuclear Wasteland (6,500 – 7,000+ power) – even its commonest animal beats almost everything here.
