This rod isn’t just another tool; it offers a potent money-making passive that can elevate your fishing experience significantly. Ready to plunge into the details? Let’s explore how to secure this coveted rod and optimize its potential with the best enchantments.
The journey to the Dreambreaker Rod starts by completing the full questline from ‘The Restless One’ NPC located at the Cultist Lair. Once you’re in the lair, find the NPC positioned to the right of the central pool and interact with them by pressing the ‘E’ key. Your first task? Hand over the Dreamer’s Amulet. This is just the beginning, though! Here’s a breakdown of the quests you’ll need to tackle:
How to Unlock the Dreambreaker Rod in Fisch
1. Return the Dreamer’s Amulet
To craft the Dreamer’s Amulet, you’ll need to complete side quests for all other NPCs in the Cultist Lair. Successful completion nets you the following Amulet Fragments:
- Maelira’s Amulet Fragment
- Eldran’s Amulet Fragment
- Kareth’s Amulet Fragment
- Sythra’s Amulet Fragment
- Varn’s Amulet Fragment
Once you’ve gathered all fragments, head to the Sanctum area of the Lair and find the Amulet NPC to finally obtain the Dreamer’s Amulet. Now, return to the Restless One to complete this step.
2. Return a Lucid Enchant Relic
Your next task involves crafting the Lucid Rod in the Ancient Archives. For this, acquire Lunar Thread, a Lucid Reel, Cursed Torch Scrap Metal, and around €80,000 (80,000C$). Afterward, fish anywhere in the game to obtain an Enchant Relic embedded with the Lucid mutation. Present this Relic to the NPC upon catching it.
3. Return a Lucid Speed Core
For this quest, you need to fish near Sunstone Island with the Lucid Rod. You can then reel in the Speed Core displaying the Lucid mutation.
4. Return a Lucid Cathulid
Using the Lucid Rod, fish in the pools located within the Hall of Whispers or the Passage of Oaths in the Cultist Lair to catch the Cathulid.
5. Return a Phantom Cathulid
First, acquire the Eidolon Rod from the Sanctum. Interacting with all the Obelisks in the Cultist Lair unlocks the option to purchase the Eidolon Rod for €5,000 (5,000,000C$). Fish in the Hall of Whispers or the Passage of Oaths to obtain the Phantom Cathulid, with a 35% chance of the rod applying the Phantom mutation.
6. Return a Lucid Leviathan or a Profane Leviathan
To summon a Leviathan Hunt event, you’ll need to gather specific fish to place on the pedestals surrounding the pool in the Sanctum:
- Solarblaze Cathulid
- Nova Cathulid
- Rainbow Cluster Cathulid
- Aurora Cathulid
- Purified Cathulid
Successfully placing these fish will trigger the Leviathan Hunt event, which includes a 10% chance of launching the Profane Leviathan Hunt. Catch one of the Leviathans with a Lucid Rod, then return to the NPC with your catch.
Upon completing these quests, return to the Restless One, and for €10,000 (10,000,000C$) and a player level of 500 or above, you can claim the Dreambreaker Rod.
