Welcome, Fisch player. Are you on the hunt for the rarest and most challenging collectible in Fisch? Then you’ve definitely heard about the Cinderstring Rod. This rod doesn’t just have a super cool special skin; it also has a unique passive that makes it one of the most sought-after items in the game.
However, the quest to obtain it is often considered one of the most difficult, as it involves items that can no longer be acquired in the usual way. This article will guide you step by step, from which items you need, how to get them, and even a unique trick to unlock the hidden Deathstring skin.
Requirements for the Cinderstring Rod Quest
Before you start the quest, you must collect four rare items to give to an NPC named Wreck. Make sure you are ready with your resources or trading power, as some of these items can be extremely expensive.
Here is the list of items you need:
- Scorched Sea Mine
- Emberflame
- Hogchoker
- Shiny Subspace Crate
We highly recommend checking the prices of these four items at the Trade Plaza first so you can prepare the necessary resources, especially for the Hogchoker.
How to Get the Quest Items
Scorched Sea Mine
This item can only be found in the Desolate Deep. Uniquely, you cannot fish for it directly with a rod. This item will only appear when using crab cages.
Pro-Tips: To increase your chances, use Urbalis Totems and purchase Men in Luck from Merlin. Once you get it, perform an appraisal to get the Scorched Mutation.
Emberflame
This item is rarely found and can usually only be obtained from special events or as a drop from specific bosses. If no event is active, the only way to get it is through the Trade Plaza. Be sure to check its availability and price there.
Hogchoker
This is the most difficult item to get. Previously, the Hogchoker could be fished in the Second Sea, but that location has since been removed from the game. This means that currently, the only way to get it is through the Trade Plaza. Be prepared with your trading value, as the price of a Hogchoker is highly volatile and can skyrocket.
Shiny Subspace Crate
To obtain this item, you must have the Destiny Rod with the Quantum enchantment. When using bait crates, you have a 25% chance of getting items from the Subspace. Keep trying to fish with the bait until you get the Shiny Subspace Crate, which is a rare version of the common item.
Completing the Quest with Wreck
Once you have successfully collected all the items mentioned above—namely the Scorched Sea Mine, Emberflame, Hogchoker, and Shiny Subspace Crate—immediately return to the NPC Wreck. Give all the items to him. The quest will then be complete, and you will be rewarded with the Cinderstring Rod of your dreams.
How to Unlock the Deathstring Skin
The Cinderstring Rod holds a unique secret: a hidden skin called Deathstring. To unlock it, follow these steps:
- Copy your Roblox Profile ID (the unique number in your profile URL).
- Log out of the Fisch game.
- When logging back in, type your ID in reverse into the username field.
- After successfully logging in with the reversed ID, the Deathstring skin will automatically be unlocked for your Cinderstring Rod.
Warning: Make sure you save your original ID safely and never share it with anyone.
Cinderstring Rod Passive & Stats
Although it looks cool, the Cinderstring Rod is not considered the strongest rod in the game. Here are its stats and passive details:
Passive: After 2 perfect catches, for 30 seconds you have:
- A 20% chance to activate Scorched Mutation (2.5x multiplier).
- A 5% chance to activate Infernal Mutation (10x multiplier).
Stats:
- +25% Progress Speed
- +10% Luck
- -20% Resilience
- -0.05 Control
The Cinderstring Rod’s passive is interesting, but its stats are not as strong as other top meta rods.
Is the Cinderstring Rod Worth Farming?
| Pros | Cons |
|---|---|
| A rare and cool collectible to show off. | Very difficult to obtain because the Hogchoker is now only available on the Trade Plaza. |
| You get a unique Deathstring skin. | Its stats are not on par with other top rods like the Destiny Rod. |
| Its mutation effects can provide huge multipliers if you’re lucky. |
Overall, the Cinderstring Rod is more suited for collectors and players who enjoy a quest challenge, not for players who focus on the best fishing meta.
Trading & Farming Tips
- Farming Party: Invite your friends to a farming party in the Desolate Deep to speed up the process of getting the Scorched Sea Mine.
- Monitor Prices: Always monitor the price of Hogchokers on the Trade Plaza. Prices can fluctuate, so be patient to find a good deal.
- Save Your Bait: Save your bait crates before you start farming for the Shiny Subspace Crate. You will need a lot of crates to get the shiny version.
