Unlocking the Rod of the Exalted One in Fisch: A Comprehensive Guide
Only a handful of fishing rods in Fisch are obtainable for free via quests. The Tides of Gold update introduced a new free rod, but acquiring it demands significant time and resources due to the rarity of required mutated items. This guide details how to obtain the coveted Rod of the Exalted One.
Locating The Keeper's Secret
To acquire the Rod of the Exalted One, you must first discover The Keeper's Secret. This hidden location resides on one of the main islands. Access is free. Begin your journey in Mushgrove Swamp.
Navigate to the island, heading directly from the Shipwright NPC. Upon encountering tall rocks, turn left. You'll find a visually distinct, darker-colored fake wall. Proceed cautiously through this wall; the interior cave is small, containing only an elevator and a dangerous drop shaft. Carefully use the elevator to avoid a fatal fall. Reaching the bottom reveals The Keeper's Secret, featuring seven color-coded pedestals.
Solving The Keeper's Secret Puzzle
Each of the seven pedestals requires a uniquely mutated Enchant Relic:
- Greedy Relic
- Translucent Relic
- Atlantean Relic
- Crystalized Relic
- Hexed Relic
- Mosaic Relic
- Fossilized Relic
The most efficient method involves purchasing Relics from the Merlin NPC and appraising them during Mutation Surge events. This process necessitates a considerable financial investment.
Once you've gathered the correctly mutated Relics, place them on their corresponding pedestals to receive the Rod of the Exalted One and three Exalted Relics.
