I'm trying to make an achievement Shell Seaker.

https://tibia.fandom.com/wiki/Shell_Seeker

As different sources states - all I need to do is to open a Large Seashell and get Giant Shimmering Pearl 100 times. Of course we can open the shell once every 20 hours and see one of three different messages:

  • Nothing happens,

  • You found a beautiful pearl,

  • You squeeze your fingers resulting in a loss of 200 hitpoints (Physical damage),

so it can take many time to achieve this.

Everything was clear for me untill this day, because my friend said "It is matter which color of pearl you'll get - to make an achievement you need to get 100 blue Giant Shimmering Pearls". He added that he counted it cerfully and he's 100% sure.

Does it really matter which color of Giant Shimmering Pearl I get?

Best answer

I got the achievement with the brown pearl, so your friend's theory is, well, wrong. I also used to collect all these pearls in my dp and I didn't have 100 brown pearls - 2 types were mixed.
The pearl colour can be clearly seen in my bp:



So the answer to your question is - colour doesn't matter, just the quantity of all pearls, which has to reach 100.

I just confirmed with a mate on my server who has this achievement this is false. Only require to get 100 pearls no matter the colour

Looking for more to help you I found this: https://www.tibiaqa.com/12044/how-long-does-it-take-to-get-the-shell-seeker-achievement 
which is an answer to a similar question where someone posts the % to get the pearl and more or less how long it takes to finish. Seems like 200 days would cover it complete but at Tibia Royal (link doesn't work anymore due to fansite no longer existing) this: however it does not end there, you must also find a Giant Shimmering Pearl or Giant Shimmering Pearl 100 times.

With the exception of that everything I find suggest that is 100 times you find a pearl and everyone I ask that has the achievement tells me the same.

Idk how else i can help you i could make proof with my char but it will take me so long that you will alredy gonna have the achievements and wont matter anymore i alredy look for videos that prove it but coudnt find any

i can see which pearl I got when I make this  soon:)

that woudnt prove anything unless you get the achivement with a brown pearl since its like 50% chance to get any of those, meaning that if you get it with a blue pearl that woundnt prove that the myth is true you would have to make a new character and collect 100 of the pearl no matter the colour and if you dont get the achievement that means that either you have to get 100 brown or 100 blue but theres is no prove behind that theory i must add that there is also nothing that disclaims it but everything found is pointing in the direction that is false

Tynusiia, can you also get a screenshot of that? I was checking screenshots of other people -  found 3, and each looks like BLUE pearl (not sure though, perhaps water make them blue).
It would be interesting if that would be a truth- considering that both pearls have same notification.
It would also be odd that none has noticed it takes much more than 100. - I noticed that Trululu Gumdrops was updating Shell Seeker achievement for Tibiaroyal I believe,  he would update it accordingly. I think he should speak up here ;-)
