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 resources. This guide details how to obtain the Rod of the Exalted One, a free but challenging-to-acquire item.
Locating The Keeper's Secret
The journey begins at The Keeper's Secret, a hidden location on a base island in Mushgrove Swamp. Access is free. From the Shipwright NPC, head straight across the island. Upon reaching tall rocks, turn left to discover 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. Reaching the bottom reveals The Keeper's Secret, featuring seven differently colored pedestals.
Solving The Keeper's Secret Puzzle
The puzzle requires seven uniquely mutated Enchant Relics:
- Greedy Relic
- Translucent Relic
- Atlantean Relic
- Crystallized Relic
- Hexed Relic
- Mosaic Relic
- Fossilized Relic
Acquiring these relics typically involves purchasing them from Merlin and appraising them during Mutation Surge events, a costly endeavor. Once obtained, place each relic on its corresponding pedestal to receive the Rod of the Exalted One and three Exalted Relics.
