Plimbo the Sailor is the NPC that resides in this secretive little cove. He and his dark little realm appear after the Lamb has encountered him in Anchordeep. Although it seems as if he’s alone, there are a few other small and secretive residents in this quiet sanctuary that the Lamb can encounter.
Updated on September 4th, 2023, by Kristy Ambrose:Cult of the Lamb retains a healthy following more than a year after its launch, seducing players with a charming andunique mix of Eldritch horrorand cartoon cuteness. The game has already been improved and expanded with a few updates, including a major one that added new follower skins, an extension to the main storyline, and other new features. Smuggler’s Sanctuary in Cult of the Lamb has gone through some minor changes that players should take note of before venturing forth.
How To Find Smuggler’s Sanctuary
Anchordeep is usually the third Crusade on which the Lamb embarks, but players can finish the dungeons in any order they wish.
The Lamb will first meet the NPCPlimboduring a random encounter in the dungeon ofAnchordeep. He’ll tell the Lamb thathe has some unique and rareitems available for trade and resale, and he’ll mark the place on the map so the Lamb can visit and shop after they emerge from their latest Crusade.
This area is mostly about spending gold in either coin or bar form. This isn’t a place to find raw materials, even to buy, but there’s a vendor and a kiosk on hand, and the Lamb can collect Divine Inspiration from Plimbo’s small shrine after everything else is sold out.

Shopping In The Sanctuary
There aren’t any resources to be found in the Sanctuary, like seeds or wood, unlike other locations. By this time, however, the Lamb should have a decent-sized cult and a fair amount of money to spend. There are a few vendors here with goods that are worth the coin.
With theRelics of the Old Faithupdate, several new follower skins and Tarot Cards were added to the game, and a few of them are available for purchase in Smuggler’s Cove.

A Guide To Smuggler’s Sanctuary
Don’t be deceived by how lonely this place looks. There’s more here than just Plimbo and his pirate ship fish. Many creatures, great, small, good, and evil, are lurking in the dark shadows of the Sanctuary.
The Smuggler’s Sanctuary in Cut of the Lamb changes from day to night, and some quests and items are only available at certain times. The Lamb has to visit during both the day or night to find them all.
Plimbo And The Red Crown
Plimbo isn’t only a vendor selling his wares by the seaside. He also has in his possessiona few of the Red Crown pieces, which the Lamb can use to strengthen their power and find new and more useful fleeces to wear for their dungeon crawls.
The Eye of the Witnessis a rare object that drops from certain powerful bosses that wait at the end of almost every dungeon, and Plimbo will ask the Lamb about these when they meet. The Lamb obtains one every time they dispatch one of these powerful enemies. There are four available to trade from Plimbo, making one complete Crown and giving the Lamb another valuable fleece for Crusading.

The Wolf Quests
These secret quests are only available in the dark of night, and one of the essential steps is available in Smuggler’s Sanctuary. It’s just as scary as it sounds but the rewards are worth it.
As long as the Lamb fulfills his wishes, they will be rewarded with four Red Crown pieces and the Wolf follower form.

The Crab Follower Form
It’s not something the player catches with the fishing minigame or finds in Anchordeep. There’s a little crab skittering along the docks atSmuggler’s Sanctuary, and it moves quickly. If the Lamb succeeds in catching it, this unlocks the Crab follower form.
Most players don’t even know this secret form exists until they find it. It’s one of many random secrets in the game that keep things interesting even after all four Bishops have been defeated.

The end reward is unlocking the Snail follower form.
