Full Moon Puzzle Walkthrough {#puzzle}
When Does Full Moon Occur?
The Full Moon is a random server event that occurs every 60-80 minutes of in-game time.
How to Identify Full Moon:
- Look at the sky - moon should be completely full and bright white/blue glow
- NPCs at Haunted Castle may have dialogue changes
- Check server announcements (some private servers announce Full Moon)
Important: The puzzle can ONLY be started during an active Full Moon. If the moon phase changes mid-puzzle, your progress is NOT reset, but you cannot start a new attempt until the next Full Moon.
Puzzle Phase 1: Entering the Mansion
- Travel to Haunted Castle (Third Sea, southwest ocean)
- Locate the Mansion (large building with graveyard outside)
- Wait for Full Moon (if not already active)
- You’ll receive a chat notification: “The mansion door creaks open…”
- Enter the Mansion’s front door (it only opens during Full Moon)
Puzzle Phase 2: The Graveyard (Zombie Puzzle)
Objective: Lure specific zombies to grave markers in correct order
Steps:
- Exit to the Mansion graveyard (behind the building)
- Count the total number of graves: You’ll see 10-15 grave markers
- Zombies spawn with purple aura markers above their heads
- Lure marked zombies to specific graves:
- Walk near a zombie to aggro it
- Lead it to the grave marker that glows when you approach
- Zombie must “touch” the grave to count (will despawn when correct)
- Repeat until all marked zombies are lured to glowing graves
Pro Tips:
- Only 2-3 zombies have purple auras at a time
- Use Instinct (V) to spot purple markers through fog
- Don’t kill zombies - you need to lure them alive
- Takes 5-10 minutes to complete
Puzzle Completion Sign: All graves stop glowing, screen flashes white
Puzzle Phase 3: The Pipe Puzzle (Basement)
Objective: Solve pipe connection puzzle to unlock basement chamber
Steps:
- Return inside the Mansion
- Locate the basement entrance (stairs near left wing)
- In the basement, find the pipe puzzle wall (6x6 grid of rotatable pipes)
- Rotate pipes to create a continuous path from top-left to bottom-right:
- Click pipes to rotate 90 degrees
- Goal: Create unbroken water flow path
- Solution varies per server (no fixed answer)
- When solved correctly, a hidden door opens in the basement
Pro Tips:
- Start from the corners and work inward
- Look for “main line” pipes (long straight sections)
- Some pipes are fixed (cannot rotate)
- Typical solving time: 10-15 minutes
- If stuck, screenshot the puzzle and use online pipe-solving tools
Puzzle Completion Sign: Door opens with grinding sound effect
Puzzle Phase 4: The Weird Machine
Objective: Interact with the Weird Machine NPC to craft Soul Guitar
Steps:
- Enter the hidden chamber revealed by pipe puzzle
- Locate the Weird Machine (large mechanical contraption)
- Interact with the Weird Machine NPC
- Select “Craft Soul Guitar” option
- Confirm you have all materials:
- 500 Bones ✓
- 250 Ectoplasm ✓
- 1 Dark Fragment ✓
- 5000 Fragments ✓
- Materials will be consumed immediately
- Soul Guitar is added to your inventory
⚠️ CRITICAL NOTE: Once you complete the pipe puzzle and interact with the Weird Machine, you do NOT need to wait for another Full Moon. However, you MUST have started the quest during a Full Moon.
Common Puzzle Mistakes to Avoid
| Mistake | Consequence | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Starting puzzle without materials | Cannot craft at end | Farm materials FIRST |
| Killing zombies instead of luring | Puzzle fails, must restart | Don’t attack zombies |
| Disconnecting mid-puzzle | Progress resets completely | Use private server, stable connection |
| Not checking Full Moon phase | Can’t enter Mansion | Wait for Full Moon, don’t force it |

Frequently Asked Questions {#faq}
Is Soul Guitar better than Acidum Rifle?
Answer: Yes for PvP, No for PvE.
Soul Guitar advantages:
- ✅ Life-steal sustain ([X] El Diablo)
- ✅ Wall-penetration ([Z] Soul Shaker)
- ✅ Lower cooldowns (10s / 14s vs. 12s / 16s)
- ✅ Better combo potential
Acidum Rifle advantages:
- ✅ Higher raw damage (20-25% more DPS)
- ✅ Better for PvE farming (AoE clear)
Verdict: Soul Guitar is the best gun for competitive PvP due to utility, while Acidum Rifle is best for grinding NPCs.
How long does the Full Moon last?
Answer: The Full Moon phase lasts approximately 8-10 minutes of real-time. However, once you start the puzzle (enter the Mansion), you can complete it even after the Full Moon ends. Your progress is saved.
Pro Tip: If you’re waiting for Full Moon, do material farming nearby at Haunted Castle (Ship NPCs for Ectoplasm). This way you don’t waste time.
Can I get Soul Guitar without solving the puzzle?
No. Soul Guitar is untradeable and must be obtained by every player through the Full Moon puzzle. There are no shortcuts.
However, you can:
- Have friends help you defeat zombies (doesn’t break puzzle)
- Use private servers to avoid griefing
- Watch video guides to memorize puzzle steps beforehand
What’s the best fruit for obtaining Soul Guitar?
Recommended fruits:
- Buddha - survivability during zombie puzzle
- Portal - fast travel between Mansion and graveyard
- Dough - stun zombies to lure them easily
Avoid: Low-tier fruits (Chop, Bomb, Spin) as zombies can kill you quickly.
Does Soul Guitar work with all fighting styles?
Yes. Soul Guitar pairs excellently with:
- Godhuman (most popular pairing - 65% pick rate)
- Sanguine Art (life-steal stacking)
- Electric Claw (multi-hit synergy)
- Dragon Talon (burst damage combos)
The weapon’s versatility is a core reason for its 62% pick rate in competitive play.
Can I use Soul Guitar for PvE grinding?
Answer: Yes, but not optimal.
Soul Guitar is effective for:
- ✅ Sea Events (all moves damage Sea Beasts)
- ✅ Boss farming (life-steal sustain on [X])
- ✅ Raid support (stun utility)
However, for pure grinding efficiency:
- Acidum Rifle is faster (higher AoE damage)
- Kabucha is cheaper (lower energy cost)
- Bazooka has better AoE coverage
Verdict: Use Soul Guitar for PvP, switch to Acidum Rifle/Kabucha for grinding.
What if I fail the puzzle?
If you disconnect or fail the zombie/pipe puzzle, you must:
- Wait for the next Full Moon (60-80 minutes)
- Restart from Phase 1 (entering Mansion)
- Re-complete all puzzle phases
All materials are safe - they’re only consumed at the final step (Weird Machine crafting).
Conclusion
Soul Guitar remains the undisputed best gun for PvP in Blox Fruits as of November 2025, maintaining its S-Tier status despite numerous game updates. The combination of long-range stun, wall-penetration mechanics, life-steal sustain, and universal build synergy makes it essential for competitive play.
Total Investment Summary:
- Time: 5-8 hours (3-5 hours material farming + 45-90 minutes puzzle)
- Difficulty: Expert (complex puzzle + Full Moon timing)
- Meta Viability: S-Tier for PvP, A-Tier for PvE
Who Should Get Soul Guitar:
- ✅ PvP-focused players (highest priority)
- ✅ Players with Godhuman/Sanguine Art (combo synergy)
- ✅ Competitive build min-maxers (appears in 80% of S-Tier builds)
Who Can Skip:
- ❌ Pure PvE grinders (Acidum Rifle is more efficient)
- ❌ Casual players (time investment may not be worth it)
- ❌ Players below Level 2000 (focus on leveling first)
Good luck obtaining the Soul Guitar! Remember to farm materials first, use private servers for uninterrupted puzzle solving, and be patient with Full Moon spawns.
