Unlocking the Rod of the Exalted One in Fisch: A Comprehensive Guide

Only a handful of fishing rods in Fisch are freely obtainable through quests. The Tides of Gold update introduced a new free rod, but acquiring it demands significant time and in-game currency investment due to the rarity of required mutated items. This guide details how to obtain the 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 is situated on one of the main islands. Access is free. Begin your search in Mushgrove Swamp.

Navigate to the island 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. Careful elevator use is crucial to avoid a fatal fall. The elevator leads to The Keeper's Secret, a chamber with 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
• Crystallized Relic
• Hexed Relic
• Mosaic Relic
• Fossilized Relic

Acquiring these relics typically involves purchasing them from the Merlin NPC and appraising them during Mutation Surge events, necessitating considerable in-game spending. Once all seven correctly mutated relics are placed, you'll receive the Rod of the Exalted One and three Exalted Relics.
