The requirements for finding Mirage Island have changed since this guide was last updated.
The Mirage Island is a Sea Event added in Update 17 Part 2. This is a special island that functions differently from all the other islands.
The Advanced Fruit Dealer, and Blue Gear for Race Awakening can be found here. The Advanced Fruit Dealer will spawn somewhere on the island.
NOTE: It doesn’t have to be full moon anymore to find Blue Gear in Mirage Island anymore.
Paths that can help the player find the blue gear on mirage islands.
Spawning[]
To get a Mirage Island to spawn, the player must be sailing a Boat in Sea Danger Levels 1-6, although it is more recommended to look for Mirage Island in Sea Danger Levels 4-5. Once spawned. The mirage island will despawn if:
- 15 minutes have passed.
- The player who spawned it is not near of the island.
- The player who spawns it leaves.
After Mirage Island despawns, there is no cooldown for it to spawn the Mirage Island again. It can only be found in the Third Sea and is one of the rarest sea events to occur. Each boat in your exploration group increases the chance to find one a little bit, though this island is still extremely rare.
Mirage Island can spawn anytime, day or night.
The despawn of mirage island doesn't depend on the time it was spawned (A mirage island will have same despawn time during the day and night.)
Race Awakening[]

This requires night time AND the Sealed King quest to work
The process to get Race Awakening (Race V4) continues on this island. The player will need to have a Mirror Fractal and then go to the highest point of the island and wait for night. After that, activate the player's Race Ability and look at the moon for about 10-15 seconds and it will shine, giving the message that "Your <Mirror Fractal> has resonated with the moon" (NOTE: THIS DOES NOT TAKE AWAY the player's 
Mirror Fractal). After that, the player has to find blue glowing gear before the night ends or the island despawns. You should get the message, <You hear a distant chiming from the Temple of Time> Once the player touches it, the player will now be able to pull the lever at the Temple of Time.
Advanced Fruit Dealer Locations[]

Mirage Hunting Tips & Guides [UPDATE 20][]
- It's highly recommended to look out for the Mirage Island in a crew, scattered in their own respective ships. Keep in mind that, as of Update 20, Mirage's spawn rate will increase based on the number of ships in the area, NOT the number of players in a ship.
- You can simply ignore almost every Sea event in these levels, except the Terrorshark Raid Boss. It will be extremely irritating, especially if you're a low level, as it will keep attacking your ship, doing tremendous loads of damage unless you attack it first. If you can't win against it, it's better you reset and try again, as this raid boss will not leave you alone until you or it dies.
- Portal users are an exception; using their [V] forces the Terrorshark to despawn when engaged in combat.
- The requirements for spawning the Mirage Island have changed since Update 20, the differences being that you have to be in a Sea Danger Level and having to deal with more Sea Events, like the Terrorsharks that can really slow you down.
- It will take anywhere from 5 minutes to 3 hours to find the Mirage Island, it's highly recommended to get a friend with you while searching to increase the spawn rates.
- Do NOT panic if you find Mirage Island during daytime. Simply waiting for night will not take long enough to despawn it. In the worst case scenario, you will still have around 5 minutes to search for the gear.
- It is always recommended to use a strong ship with high health points in the danger levels, as you'll be facing quite a few irritating sea events in these Sea Levels.
- A good example of this would be the Lantern or Guardian due to the high health.
- The Sentinel is recommended to use in here as the Mirage's spawn rate will not be affected once it is in its flying mode, making it perfectly usable.
- The Miracle works perfectly, too. Because of its fast speed and small hitbox, you can easily dodge cannons and other stuff. The fast speed allows it to make a quick escape from anything from piranhas to sharks.
Tips[]
- As of Update 21, you can use the Kitsune Mask accessory to make it easier to see in Danger Level 6 (????) making it easier to find the island. Once you arrive, you can switch to Pale Scarf.
- If the island is too dark to search, the player can enable fast mode (The Blue Gear WILL NOT shine if you enable Fast Mode), which will remove the majority of the darkness and smoke. It is recommended to use the M1 of Soul Guitar, Awakened Buddah's Shift [Z] In first person or awakened Light [X] because this move can glow the light for easiest distance to help you see more clearly.
- The island will always spawn in the direction that the player's boat is facing. This is the same for Ship Raids and Sea Beasts.
- Locate the highest point (shown with the red dot in the image to the right) before approaching the island closely enough that it grows dark, and then land directly in front of it.
- While the player is trying to find the Blue Gear, if the player goes out of the island where its fog isn’t present and looks at the island, the player will be able to see the Blue Gear clearly.
- It can spawn without the boat moving as long as you are sitting on the boat itself.
- It is recommended to have at least 2-3 people to find the Advanced Fruit Dealer, as it is hard to see on the island.
- Skip Sea Beasts and Ship Raids as it will take a while to defeat them, and it is better to look for Mirage Island.
- Mirage Island can spawn anywhere, even thousands of meters outside the map.
- Using Shift Lock while looking at the moon can help the Mirror Fractal resonate, as long as the player is on the peak.
- If the player has a Private Server, it is recommended to use it to find a Mirage Island.
- If the player has the extension RoShade, enable Rim Light, as it kind of removes the fog and player would be able to see easier.
- The player should use Shipwright and 3-4 people to make it easy to repair the boat if it gets damaged, making finding Mirage Island much easier to do in 1 attempt.
- You can trigger the Mirror Fractal to resonate in both the highest peak, or even trees.
- There is a higher chance of Mirage Island spawning during a full moon, so make sure to check the moon cycle.
- Try to have at least 1 person with the gear and 1 without the gear this may increase your chance of finding the gear easier.
Notes[]
- This island contains several Fragment Chests (giving
100-300 fragments) and Diamond Chests (giving 7,000-13,000 money). - Keep in mind that if you have already found the Blue Gear then you cannot see it anymore, so only people who have not gotten it have the ability to find the gear themselves. You can acquire help by letting an experienced and intelligent player go to spawn locations, and the player who has not collected the Blue Gear can check if it is there or not.
- It is recommended that you search in Danger Levels 4-5 as the visibility defects Danger Level 6 are not present in levels 4-5 making it easier to locate the Blue Gear. It is also clearer in those danger levels and closer to the islands so you can inform people about the island, and they come quickly if needed.
- When the player is on the island, they will have their vision reduced during daytime, and severe darkness during the night.
- The player can find an Advanced Fruit Dealer in a Mirage Island. The Advanced Fruit Dealer functions the same as Blox Fruit Dealer, but has a separate stock that changes every two hours instead of four (which is why we won't be documenting the Mirage Stock) and a minimum stock of seven instead of three. The Advanced Fruit Dealer can spawn anywhere randomly on the island.
- As of the Valentine's Update, the player does not require a full moon to spawn a Mirage Island and resonate their Mirror Fractal with the moon, the player only requires it to be night-time.
Trivia[]
- This island is based on a real phenomenon, called a mirage.
- This island also has the same effect as a mirage, as it can only be seen from afar and fades as the person gets closer.

- This island used to have its OST (Original Soundtrack) removed due to a bug. But was later fixed and re-added after a bug fix.
- You cannot destroy any trees on this island.
- While using The Sentinel or Miracle, the Mirage Island doesn't affect the height level of the flying boat.
