The Leviathan’s Fang Rod is a standout choice in Fisch’s Mariana’s Veil expansion for anglers looking to tackle the formidable Scylla. With its high lure speed and luck attributes, this rod offers unique advantages, although players will need to address its low base resilience and control.
How to Acquire the Leviathan’s Fang Rod
To obtain this powerful rod, players must venture to the Veil of the Forsaken, the deepest region within Mariana’s Veil. Accessing this area involves several key steps:
- Submarine Construction: Begin by completing Dr. Glimmerfin’s quest, which requires mining obsidian and collecting five submarine parts. Once assembled, the submarine enables access to the deeper regions of Mariana’s Veil.
- Descend Deeper: Navigate through the Volcanic Vents, Challenger’s Deep, and Abyssal Zenith areas. Each location provides unique resources crucial for upgrading your submarine. Additionally, completing bestiaries at these sites can yield more C$.
- Battle Scylla: In the Calm Zone, solve the chess puzzle to unlock the pathway to Scylla’s lair. Defeating this boss is a prerequisite for reaching the Veil of the Forsaken.
Once Scylla is vanquished, the Veil of the Forsaken opens up for fishing, and the Leviathan’s Fang Rod can be bought near the entrance for 1,000,000 C$. It is essential to have adequate C$ before embarking on these quests.
