My rod trembled under a Jack-o-Moon sky and for a second I thought I’d snagged nothing but seaweed. Then something heavy answered—the kind of pull that makes you stop breathing and check your inventory. You keep playing long enough and the game starts handing you choices that feel like small crimes of opportunity.
I’ve been following Fisch events since the first fright; you’ll find me in Steam threads and the Discord when the merchant refreshes. I’ll walk you through where the four FischFright 3 Relics come from, what they actually do to your haul, and which ones deserve your Treats and attention.
How to Get FischFright 3 Relics in Fisch
On any event weekend you can spot players clustered by the vendor and the pools, trading tips and bait like seasoned pros.
If you want these Relics in your bestiary they behave like fish: they spawn in pools, drop from activities, and can be purchased when the Dutchman rolls through. Here’s the practical list—short, because you don’t want filler when you’re farming Treats.
- Fishing: Relics are fish-class items. Fish in their designated pools to find them; they follow the same spawn/rarity rules as other event catches.
- Quests: Some occasional event quests reward a Relic on completion. Track them on your quest log and on the Fisch subreddit to time the ones with relic drops.
- Trick-or-Treating: There’s a small luck-based chance to net a Relic while gathering Treats around town—think of it as a random bonus roll.
- Dutchman Merchant: The most reliable route: farm Treats and buy Relics directly from the limited-time merchant.
You’ll buy new Relics with Treats. If you’re tracking value-per-minute, here are the sticker prices from the Dutchman Merchant so you know what to farm for:
| Relic | Cost |
|---|---|
| Doomed Relic | 2,500 Treats |
| Vile Relic | 2,500 Treats |
| Grim Relic | 2,500 Treats |
| Eldritch Relic | 7,500 Treats |
All FischFright 3 Relics and Their Effects
At a glance you can tell which pools are busy: red-glowing water and players testing bait combinations on stream.
Relics modify catches the way a magnet changes iron filings. I’ll break each relic down: how it changes your reel fight, where you pull it from, and whether it’s worth hauling the Treats to the Dutchman or burning time fishing for the drop.
Doomed Relic
The Doomed Relic gives you a 10% proc chance to apply the Doom mutation, which multiplies a catch’s value by 6x while occasionally slashing during the reel—so you gain payout at the cost of a small control penalty. You find it in the Doomed Pool (red glow). If you track patterns on Discord or the Steam forums, you’ll spot players timing Jack-o-Moon nights for better odds.

Vile Relic
The Vile Relic gives a 10% chance to apply the Vile mutation for a 6x value bump. It speeds force progress by 10% while trimming the catch’s weight by 10%—a trade that favors quick cash over trophy stats. You can fish it from the Vile Frightful Pool or Eldritch Vile Pool at roughly a 1% drop rate; streamers on Twitch will often show their runs for pattern hints.

Grim Relic
The Grim Relic grants a 10% chance for the Grim mutation (6x value) and boosts your starting progress speed by 25%—a safer bet if you want faster pulls. It does shave 10% off resilience, so tougher fights can still surprise you. Stream and forum data suggest pairing Grim with control-focused rods for best results.

Eldritch Relic
The Eldritch Relic is the rare gem: 10% chance for the Eldritch mutation, which multiplies value by 7x, plus a 50% chance to yank a slip-away fish back into the bar—an insurance policy that turns near-escapes into winnings. If you stream your runs or follow dev patch notes on Steam, you’ll see this one flagged as the most contested Relic during FischFright weekends.

How many new Relics are in FischFright 3?
There are four new Relics this event: Doomed, Vile, Grim, and Eldritch. Think of them as secret levers that pry open your reward table—some you’ll chase for raw value, others for control and consistency.
Can you buy FischFright 3 Relics?
Yes. All four Relics appear for sale with the Dutchman Merchant during the event—use Treats earned from event activities to purchase them. If you’re short on farm time, watch the market on Reddit and Discord channels where players share vendor rotations and trading tips.
I recommend you prioritize the Eldritch if you want the biggest single-catch returns, and Grim if you favor steady pulls while streaming to an audience on Twitch. I’ll be testing combos on Steam and posting results in the Fisch Discord; follow there if you want raw run data.
The relics change the game’s risk math—are you going to spend Treats on a gamble or fish nights until the drop appears; which strategy will you bet on?
