Obtaining the Rod of the Depths
To acquire the Rod of the Depths, follow these steps:
Complete Vertigo’s Bestiary: Ensure you’ve caught all fish species in Vertigo to achieve 100% completion.
Obtain the Depths Key: Fish for the Depths Key around Strange Whirlpools or within Vertigo itself. The key is essential for accessing the Depths.
Access the Depths: Use the Depths Key to unlock the entrance to the Depths. This area contains the maze leading to the rod.
Gather Enchant Relics: Collect one Abyssal and Hexed Enchant Relic. These are required to unlock the maze entrance within the Depths.
Unlock the Maze: Place the Abyssal Relic on the pedestal near Aspicientis and the Hexed Relic on the pedestal near Tenebris to open the maze entrance.
Navigate the Maze: Traverse the underwater maze using appropriate diving gear. At the end, you’ll find a statue where you can purchase the rod for 750,000 C$.
Note: The doors to the Depths and the maze are client-sided, meaning each player must unlock them individually. However, the Depths Key and Enchant Relics can be traded between players.
