In the world of *Fisch*, obtaining a powerful fishing rod often involves significant investment. While a few rods are available through quests, the coveted Rod of the Exalted One presents a unique challenge. Even though it's technically free, acquiring it demands considerable time and resources due to the rarity of required items. This guide details how to obtain this exceptional rod.
Uncovering The Keeper's Secret in Fisch

The journey to the Rod of the Exalted One begins with locating The Keeper's Secret. This hidden location resides on one of the base islands, specifically within Mushgrove Swamp. Access is free, but finding the entrance requires keen observation. Head straight into the island from the Shipwright NPC. Upon reaching the high rocks, turn left. You'll discover a visually distinct, darker-colored fake wall. Proceed cautiously through this wall; the cave beyond is small, containing only an elevator and a potentially fatal drop shaft. Carefully use the elevator to descend to The Keeper's Secret, where seven color-coded pedestals await.
Solving The Keeper's Secret Puzzle

To claim the Rod of the Exalted One, you must place seven uniquely mutated Enchant Relics onto the pedestals. These are not ordinary relics; each must possess a specific mutation:
- 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 approach, however, requires a substantial financial investment. Once all correctly mutated relics are in place, you'll receive the Rod of the Exalted One and three Exalted Relics.
