FischFright 3 Guide How to Get All 6 Halloween Rods

The seasonal event FischFright 3 has brought some seriously cool gear to Fisch with its six limited-time Halloween rods. Each offers different playstyles and bonuses, so nailing these unlocks is all about hitting event quests and grinding rare drops. Players scrambling to complete their collections or find that perfect rod for the event will want to know exactly where to start and what to expect along the way.

Getting all six rods can take some time because several quests involve rare fish, mutated items, and hidden event mechanics. This guide explains how to unlock the Boglin Branch, Eldritch, Webweaver, Doomsekkar, Dutchman’s Rod, and Omniscient Spinecaster, including their stats and passive abilities.

FischFright 3’s six Halloween rods each have unique unlock requirements, tied to event quests and special rituals. Four of these rods—Boglin Branch, Eldritch, Webweaver, and Doomsekkar—are earned through straightforward questlines and event challenges. The Dutchman’s Rod and Omniscient Spinecaster come from completing mystical rituals, which pose their own challenges. Here’s how you can earn each rod during the event.

• Boglin Branch: Complete the Youngster Goblin questline.
• Eldritch Rod: Reach Hex Energy Level 11 by offering Witch’s Ingredients to Beatrix’s cauldron.
• Webweaver Rod: Finish Webby Winston’s three quests and buy the rod with 1,000 Treats.
• Doomsekkar Rod: Complete Doomsekkar’s fishing challenges plus haunted spirit capture.
• Dutchman’s Rod: Finish the Dutchman’s Blessing Ritual.
• Omniscient Spinecaster: Complete the Omniscient Ritual, the event’s toughest unlock.

Here is a quick overview of all six rods:

• Boglin Branch: Complete the Youngster Goblin questline.

• Eldritch Rod: Reach Hex Energy Level 11 by offering ingredients to Beatrix’s cauldron.

• Webweaver Rod: Complete Webby Winston’s three quests and purchase the rod with Treats.

• Doomsekkar Rod: Complete Doomsekkar’s fishing and haunted spirit challenges.

• Dutchman’s Rod: Complete the Dutchman’s Blessing Ritual.

• Omniscient Spinecaster: Complete the Omniscient Ritual, the final and most challenging rod unlock.

The Boglin Branch starts with the Youngster Goblin quest near Beatrix’s Cauldron in Caustic Hallow. Begin by talking to the Youngster Goblin and tracking your quest objectives carefully, as you need to finish several challenges and collect three rare Boglin items before you’ll be rewarded the rod.

1. Complete three Goblin Challenges on Normal difficulty or higher—Easy Goblins with green outlines won’t count toward these.
2. Hand over 10 Witch’s Ingredients of any type to the Youngster Goblin.
3. Find and collect one Boglin Skull.
4. Get one Boglin Twig (sometimes called Boglin Fang in quest text).
5. Gather a set of Boglin Wraps.

1. Complete three Goblin Challenges on Normal difficulty or higher. Easy Goblins with green outlines do not count toward this objective.

2. Give the Youngster Goblin 10 Witch’s Ingredients of any type.

3. Obtain one Boglin Skull.

4. Obtain one Boglin Twig. Some quest text may refer to this item as a Boglin Fang.

5. Obtain one set of Boglin Wraps.

After finishing the required Normal-or-higher challenges, you can farm other Goblin Challenges on any difficulty to gather the rare Boglin items. These drops can be elusive, so be ready for multiple runs to get the Skull, Twig, and Wraps before your quest completes.

Keep in mind that the Boglin Skull, Boglin Twig, and Boglin Wraps are rare drops. You may need to complete several rounds before obtaining all three items, so keep farming until the quest tracker confirms your progress.

The Boglin Branch excels with a strong Luck stat and solid Lure Speed, great for catching those rare event fish. It can handle fish weighing up to 550,000 kg, making it versatile for heavier catches during FischFright 3.

The Boglin Branch offers a strong Luck stat and decent Lure Speed, making it a useful option for players who want to catch rare fish during the event. Its maximum weight capacity is also high enough to handle fish weighing up to 550,000 kg.

• Lure Speed: 80%
• Luck: 180%
• Control: 0.05
• Resilience: 20%
• Max Kg: 550,000 kg

The Eldritch Rod unlocks once you reach Hex Energy Level 11 by offering Witch’s Ingredients to Beatrix’s cauldron in Caustic Hallow. Since this quest shares items with the Boglin Branch, working on both at once can speed up your progress.

Find Beatrix near her tree and interact with her cauldron. Choose to offer single or multiple Witch’s Ingredients, and watch the Hex Energy counter rise. When you hit Level 11, you’ll be able to claim the Eldritch Rod along with some cool bonus rewards like Witch’s Pot furniture and the Coffin Bobber.

Continue offering ingredients until you reach Hex Energy Level 11. Once you meet the requirement, claim the Eldritch Rod from Beatrix. You will also receive other rewards as you progress through the Hex Energy levels, including Witch’s Pot furniture, the Coffin Bobber, and Black Licorice.

Eldritch Rod Stats

The Eldritch Rod is notable for its excellent Luck and Lure Speed stats. Plus, it has no maximum weight cap on fish, which means you can reel in the biggest specimens without restrictions.

• Lure Speed: 90%
• Luck: 230%
• Control: 0.05
• Resilience: 15%
• Max Kg: Infinite

The Webweaver Rod is earned through Webby Winston, an NPC located in Webridden Cavern beneath Caustic Hallow. You must complete three linked quests simultaneously before purchasing the rod for 1,000 Treats.

Here are the requirements:

1. Visit 16 different houses while holding the Candy Bucket to trick-or-treat (revisits won’t count).
2. Catch 15 Cobweb Cod in the cavern’s green waters.
3. Catch 10 Webbed mutation fish inside Webridden Cavern.

Completing these quests rewards you with 1,000 Treats, exactly enough to buy the Webweaver Rod from Webby Winston. Just be sure you don’t spend those Treats elsewhere before purchasing.

This means you can obtain the rod without spending extra Treats from your existing balance, provided you save the entire quest reward. Make sure you do not spend those Treats on other event items before buying the rod.

Webweaver Rod Stats and Passive

The Webweaver shines with high Luck and an incredible 125% Lure Speed. Its unique Spider Web passive summons spiders during fishing, periodically applying the Webbed mutation to nearby fish and boosting the rod’s effectiveness for catching event fish.

• Lure Speed: 125%
• Luck: 250%
• Control: 0.03
• Resilience: 10%
• Max Kg: Infinite

Passive — Spider Web: Spiders spawn about every 10 seconds while fishing, applying Webbed to nearby fish.

The Doomsekkar Rod requires completing Doomsekkar’s multi-step questline near the Halloween graveyard. This involves catching numerous fish in Frightful Pools, achieving Perfect Catches, and capturing a special haunted spirit during an event.

You need to complete the following three objectives:

1. Catch 100 fish from Frightful Pools, temporary glowing pools appearing briefly around the ocean. For faster farming, buy a Frightful Pool Totem from the Flying Dutchman for 3,000 Treats to spawn a pool manually.
2. Land 50 Perfect Catches while fishing.
3. Capture a haunted spirit inside the correct glowing haunted house in Caustic Hallow.

Tip: Combine the first two tasks by fishing in Frightful Pools while aiming for Perfect Catches to optimize your time.

How to Capture the Haunted Spirit

When a server notification announces a haunted house spawn, look for the eerie green number above the door—it marks where the haunted spirit resides.

1. Equip your Candy Bucket before approaching the house.
2. Knock on the door and accept the dialogue.
3. Keep your cursor steady on the ghost to capture it.
4. Once caught, you’ll be transported to a special area.
5. Use the Magic Mirror to exit back to the main world.

After completing all three objectives, return to Doomsekkar to claim your rod and collect 3,000 additional Treats.

Doomsekkar Rod Stats and Passive

The Doomsekkar Rod boasts 275% Luck and 100% Lure Speed with an infinite weight cap. However, its Resilience stat is a brutal -666%, making it more challenging to use on tough fish.

• Luck: 275%
• Control: 0.1
• Resilience: -666%
• Max Kg: Infinite
