Are you tired of spinning the wheel or grinding for hours in Devil Hunter only to end up with common devils that don’t pack a punch? You aren’t alone. Getting your hands on the powerful Octopus Devil and the brutal Shark Contract is the dream for many players in 2026, but the RNG (Random Number Generation) can feel absolutely punishing. I’ve spent countless hours diving into the mechanics, analyzing the latest drop rates, and testing the most efficient farming methods available this March. In this guide, I’m going to walk you through exactly how to maximize your chances and secure these contracts fast.

Here is a quick overview of the methods we will cover to get you geared up:

Method	Difficulty	Best For	Estimated Time to Success
High-Yell Yen Farming	Medium	Buying Spins/Boxes	2-4 Hours (for enough currency)
Luck Boosting Strategy	Hard	Maximizing RNG per Spin	Varies (Instant or Days)
Boss Farming (Shard Drops)	Hard	Specific Contract Shards	3-5 Hours
Code Redemption	Easy	Free Spins/Money	5 Minutes

Now, let’s dive into the nitty-gritty of mastering the devil hunting business.

Understanding the Octopus Devil and Shark Contract

Before we start grinding, it is crucial to understand why you want these specific devils and how they function. In the current meta of 2026, utility and raw damage are king.

The Octopus Devil

The Octopus Devil isn’t just a squishy water creature; it is a control monster. In Devil Hunter, many enemies rely on getting close to deal damage. The Octopus Devil specializes in crowd control (CC).

Main Strength: Its ability to bind multiple enemies at once allows you to control the flow of battle.
Utility: It provides excellent ranged options, keeping you safe from melee-heavy bosses.
Meta Relevance: In team fights or high-level mob waves, having an Octopus contract makes you invaluable for keeping enemies off your teammates.

The Shark Contract

On the flip side, the Shark Contract is pure, unadulterated aggression. If you prefer the “Chainsaw Man” style of fighting—getting up close and tearing things apart—this is your go-to.

Main Strength: Insane single-target damage and lifesteal capabilities.
Utility: The Shark allows for traversal (swimming through ground/blood) and devastating bites that shred armor.
Meta Relevance: For 1v1 PvP or Boss raids, the Shark Contract is often tier-S due to its burst damage potential.

Step 1: The Economy – How to Farm Yen Fast?

You can’t get contracts if you don’t have the currency to roll for them. Whether the game uses a “Spin” system or a “Gacha” mechanic for boxes, you need Yen (or the game’s specific currency). Based on the latest economy updates in March, here is the fastest way to build your bank.

The “Mission Refresh” Loop

Many players make the mistake of just wandering the map looking for fights. This is inefficient.

Check the Mission Board: Always look at the daily or hourly missions.
Target High Density: Prioritize “Defeat X Enemies” missions in dense areas like the City Subway or the Harbor.
Refresh Mechanics: If the game allows you to refresh missions for a small fee, do it. Look for missions that offer Yen multipliers.

Best Farming Spots for 2026

Not all maps are created equal.

The Slums: Great for beginners. Low HP enemies means you can kill them quickly and rack up combo multipliers for extra Yen.
The Industrial Zone: This is my personal favorite for mid-game players. The mobs here drop medium-tier loot and give a solid Yen payout per kill.
The Abyssal Zone (End Game): High risk, high reward. Only go here if you have a decent team or a strong starter devil. The Yen drop rate here is multiplied by 1.5x.

Pro Tip: Always use a Yen Boost item if you have one. If you are [free-to-play], check the latest codes section of communities; developers often release 2x XP or Yen codes on weekends.

Step 2: Maximizing Your Luck (RNG Manipulation)

This is the section most guides skip, but it is the most critical. You can have a million Yen, but if your luck is bad, you won’t see the Octopus or Shark.

The Luck Stat Explained

In Devil Hunter, there is usually a hidden or visible “Luck” stat.

Equip Luck Items: Before you spend your hard-earned Yen on a spin, equip any accessory that boosts “Luck” or “Drop Rate.”
Contracts that Boost Luck: Ironically, some lower-tier devils (like the Fox or Chicken Devil) might have passives that increase luck. Equip these before you visit the summoning area.

Timing Your Spins

While not officially confirmed by developers, the community consensus on Reddit and Discord suggests that summoning right after a server reset (usually when daily quests drop) yields slightly better results. The theory is that the seed RNG resets, giving you a fresh slate.

Don’t Burn All at Once

This is a common mistake. Do not take 1,000 spins and do them all in one go.

Take a break after every 50-100 spins.
Go complete a mission or two.
Come back and spin again.
This “cooldown” method helps prevent bad streaks and gives you time to earn more currency if you get unlucky.

Step 3: How to Get the Octopus Devil?

The Octopus Devil is a specific drop from the “Aquatic” or “Tentacle” loot pool, depending on how the game’s code is structured. Here is the targeted approach.

Targeted Banner vs. Standard Banner

Check the shop. Is there a limited-time banner running?

If Yes: Check if Octopus is a featured unit. If it is, save your spins for that banner specifically. Featured units usually have a 0.5% to 1% increased drop rate compared to the standard pool.
If No: Stick to the standard banner but focus on the time of day.

The “Water” Strategy (Map Specific)

If the game mechanics allow it, go to maps with water (like the Harbor or Beach).

Theory: Some players believe the game engine loads specific assets for water maps, potentially slightly weighting the loot table toward aquatic-themed devils like the Octopus or Jellyfish. While this is anecdotal, I got my Octopus Devil at the Harbor summoning point. It’s worth a shot!

Shard Farming for Octopus

If pure RNG is failing you, look for “Boss Drops.”

Identify a boss that uses tentacles or water attacks.
Grind this boss repeatedly.
Collect “Octopus Shards.”
Once you have enough shards (usually 50 or 100), you can craft the contract directly from the “Fusion” or “Craft” menu. This is the guaranteed method, though it takes time.

Step 4: How to Get the Shark Contract?

The Shark Contract is often categorized under “Carnivore” or “Beast” types. It is a high-value target, meaning it is often rarer than the Octopus.

The Bloodlust Mechanic

Shark devils in the lore are attracted to blood. Some games implement a “Bloodlust” mechanic where getting hit or dealing damage builds a meter.

Try to enter the summoning screen with a high combo count or a full “Bloodlust” meter if your game has one. This is a glitch/exploit that has worked in previous versions of Devil Hunter games.

Fusion Recipes

Sometimes, you can’t just spin for a Shark; you have to make it.
Check the Fusion Station. A common recipe for Beast-type devils involves:

Base: Any Beast Devil (e.g., Wolf).
Material: x5 Sharp Tooth items (dropped by mini-bosses).
Material: x10 Sea Water items.
Note: Recipes change with patches, so always verify the current March recipe in your game’s Wiki.

Trading

If Devil Hunter allows player trading (which many Roblox variants do), this might be your fastest route.

Farm High-Value Items: Don’t just spin. Farm items that new players need but hate grinding for (e.g., specific crafting materials or low-tier but popular devils).
Trade Up: Offer a bulk of decent items for the specific Shark Contract. Most “Sharks” holders are looking for currency or bulk materials to upgrade their own builds.

Step 5: Advanced Tips and Common Mistakes

I’ve seen so many players waste their time. Avoid these pitfalls to ensure you get your contracts faster than anyone else.

Mistake 1: Ignoring Daily Codes

Developers release codes that give free spins. Missing a day of codes is literally throwing away free chances at the Octopus or Shark. I always check the official Discord or Twitter before I log in.

Mistake 2: Selling Low-Tier Devils

Don’t sell them! You might need them for fusion or to upgrade your main Sharks and Octopuses later. Inventory space might be tight, but buy expansions with Yen; don’t sell potential fodder.

Advanced Strategy: The “Alt” Account Method

If you are really desperate and the game allows multi-accounting:

Create a new account.
Use the starter currency to roll.
If you get a high-tier devil (like Shark), trade it to your main account.
Repeat.
Warning: Check the Terms of Service. If this is bannable, do not do it. In many Roblox games, however, this is a standard practice.

Platform Specifics: Roblox vs. Mobile

Depending on which version of Devil Hunter you are playing, the strategy might shift slightly.

Roblox Version

Focus: Heavily relies on “Codes” and “Luck Potions” bought with Robux.
Community: The Roblox community is very active. Utilize the “Trade Chat” to find people willing to swap.
Lag: Switch to lower graphics settings when farming. Lag can get you killed, which slows down your Yen farming rate.

Mobile (APK/iOS) Version

Focus: Often relies on “Energy Systems.”
Strategy: You must maximize your energy usage. Do not log off with full energy. Use every bit of energy on boss farming for shards.
Notifications: Enable them for “Revenge” events or限时 (Limited Time) bosses which often drop higher-tier contract shards.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the drop rate for the Shark Contract?

While exact numbers are hidden in the code, community testing suggests the Shark Contract sits at around a 0.05% to 0.1% drop rate in standard banners. It is considered an “SSS” tier rarity.

Can I breed devils to get a Shark?

In some versions of the game, yes. This is known as Fusion. You typically need two specific high-rarity beasts and a fusion catalyst item to attempt a Shark Contract creation.

Are there any working codes for Devil Hunter right now?

Codes expire very quickly. As of March 2026, you should check the official Discord server or the developer’s Twitter handle for the latest active codes. They often provide “Luck Boosts” or “10x Spins.”

Is the Octopus Devil good for PvP?

Yes, surprisingly. While it lacks the raw DPS of the Shark, its ability to stun-lock opponents can frustrate enemies to no end, giving you time to land critical hits or escape.

What should I do if I run out of Yen?

Stop spinning immediately. Go back to the Slums or Industrial Zone and run the “Defeat 50 Enemies” mission. Spinning without Yen is pointless; farming is the only way to get back in the game.

Do Luck Potions actually work?

Yes, data miners have confirmed that Luck Potions add a multiplier to your internal seed roll. They are one of the best investments if you are planning to do a bulk spin session (100+ spins).

Can I trade my Shark Contract to a friend?

This depends on the specific game server rules. If the game enables “Trade” by default (usually unlocked after Level 20 or completing the tutorial), yes. Be careful of scammers asking for “collateral.”

Which is better: Octopus or Shark?

It depends on your playstyle. If you like supporting and controlling crowds, go Octopus. If you want to be the main damage dealer (carry), go Shark. For the current solo meta, Shark is generally preferred.

Why did my spin fail even though I had Yen?

Check your inventory space. If your bag is full, the game might prevent you from getting the reward, or it might send the reward to a “Mailbox” system. Always make sure you have at least 5-10 empty slots before spinning.

How often do new Devils get added?

Major updates usually drop every month or two. Keep an eye on the “Update Log” in the game lobby; new banners usually arrive alongside these updates.

Conclusion

Getting the Octopus Devil and Shark Contract in Devil Hunter isn’t just about luck; it’s about efficiency. By mastering the Yen farming loops in the Industrial Zone, equipping luck-boosting gear, and utilizing the Shard crafting system, you can significantly shortcut the RNG grind.

Remember, the meta changes fast. What works today in March 2026 might be nerfed next month, so stay active in the community and keep checking back for updates. Good luck, hunters—I hope to see you tearing through the city with your new Shark teeth soon
