Do they hunt the sky whale, or the other way around?

They fight.

IRL, Sperm Whales and Giant Squids regularly fight to the death, but most of the time the Whale wins.

So, in a way, the Sky Kraken is the mini-boss to the Sky Whale's Final Boss.

Has Skywhale Co-op boss been confirmed? I can never make it to fireside chats.

I don't remember a boss being mentioned at the last fireside I went to. I did however ask if there were any unfound easter eggs, to which all the devs replied "yes, sky whales". So get hunting people. You probably have to super enhance a smudge on a piece of rubble in paritan or something like that.

Now that I think about it, this can contribute to the lore. It would explain why squids with flamers are so popular. The default build was originally modeled on the giant fire breathing krakens of the old days.

"There were always rumours. Tales whispered in dark corners over empty flagons by by someone who knew someone who heard a story over an old salt's deathbed as his death rattle spilt his last secret... Skywhales. The thing of legends. It is every skyman's dream to gaze upon one. It was my dream as well.... until I saw one with my own eyes. Now it will never leave my nightmares. Every night... the terrors... Another round... we will never speak of this again."
