To be eligible for rewards, the player must do at least 10% damage, as with all bosses.
- 3
The Saw can be spawned by paying 50 for Respawn Bosses.
- 4
The drop chance for the Shark Saw is currently unknown.
- 5
It is not recommended to use Combat or Dark Step to fight the Saw unless they are paired with Buddha, as they are all short-ranged and have mediocre knockback.
- 6
If the player is beneath Lv. 50, it is usually preferable to have some assistance with The Saw.
- 7
Gun and Sword Mains under Lv. 50 are not advised to fight The Saw, as either the damage is low or the range is too close (since The Saw can deal a lot of damage in a single hit), and it isn't a good idea to be a Gun/Sword Main at all under Lvl. 50.
- 8
One way to defeat The Saw is to use the "Hit and run" strategy. The player can dash into The Saw, land a hit, and then dash away before it responds and strikes them. If done correctly and effectively, the player should be able to land strikes on the boss without being struck themselves. When using this strategy, it is important to conserve energy so that it is possible to dash away from attacks.
- 9
Another way is to lure him and trap him outside the fountain (The player needs to stand inside the fountain), then spam ranged attacks. Be aware not to use attacks with high knockback because the player could blast him out, leading to him using Execution to attack them.
- 10
Fighting The Saw is not recommended if over Lv. 200, as the reward is almost useless compared to the swords that the player has on hand (for example the Saber, completed via the Saber Puzzle).

The Saw Strategy & Best Use
The Saw is a Level 100 boss who only shows up at Middle Town in the First Sea — not the Haunted Castle, despite the chainsaw aesthetic — standing dead-center opposite the fountain. He spawns roughly every 1 hour 15 minutes, sticks around for only 15 minutes, and the game pings everyone with a chat notification. His sole notable drop is the Shark Saw, a sword that sits behind a brutal 10% drop rate. For a Level 100 he hits harder than he should, so solo runs around level 80–120 fail more often than expected.
Beating him is positioning, not DPS. Block or sidestep the basic slash combo, and when the spinning execution wind-up appears, bait him into one of the wooden benches or the central fountain — they physically interrupt the move and give you a free 3-second punish window. Smoke, Diamond, Spring and Kilo are the cleanest beginner fruits.
The Shark Saw is a fun mid-game sword but it's been power-crept hard. Past level 200, your time is better spent on Saber or grinding Dragon Talon — The Saw is a checkbox boss, not a meta one.
