Shadow Hopper
Bounce a ball with a hatchling 25 times in a row without dropping it.
Shadow Hopper requires you to bounce a ball with a hatchling 25 times in a row without dropping it, earned by playing catch with a baby serpent through Elder Anli in The Arboretum.
Speak With Elder Anli
Visit Elder Anli in The Arboretum and select the dialogue option 'I would like to practice catch with a baby serpent.' This is available any day, not just when the daily quest is active, but requires Revered reputation on non-daily days.
Choose a Flat, Open Area
Avoid crowded spots in The Arboretum where other players and their serpents can interfere. The corral area next to Elder Anli is flat and works well, or move toward the forest area closer to the Temple of the Jade Serpent to avoid terrain that can cause the ball to clip underground.
Face Your Target Direction
When you catch the ball, your serpent tosses it back within roughly a 45–60 degree angle in the direction you are facing, so position yourself deliberately to keep the ball away from mountains and awkward terrain edges.
Play on a Non-Daily Day
Request the hatchling from Elder Anli on a day when the daily quest is not active to avoid competition from other players, which makes maintaining a 25-catch streak significantly easier.
Tips
See the video guide for a visual walkthrough of positioning and catch mechanics.
Do not wait for the daily quest to appear — Elder Anli provides access to the activity any day at Revered reputation.
