Getting the Rod of the Depths
The Rod of the Depths can be obtained by completing the Depths Maze. To get to the Depths, go to Vertigo via a Strange Whirlpool and complete the Vertigo bestiary.

Steps
How to Get the Rod of the Depths
-
1Complete the Vertigo bestiary. Vertigo is an underwater cave that can only be accessed by going into the Strange Whirlpool. [2] X Research source Strange Whirlpools appear periodically. When a Strange Whirlpool is open, the announcement message
"A Strange Whirlpool has opened."
will appear on your screen. [3] X Research source- Strange Whirlpools are open for 15 minutes once they are announced.
- They are most commonly found near Moosewood, in front of Forsaken Shores, by Roslit Bay, near Earmark Island, and around the Statue of Sovereignty. However, they can spawn anywhere on the map.
- You'll need to fish as well as use Crab Cages to complete the Vertigo bestiary.
- Some fish can only be caught in Vertigo during certain seasons. It's best to start fishing in Vertigo in Winter, then wait until the server rolls over to Spring to finish, since all the fish can be caught in Winter and/or Spring.
- Isonade can only be caught by fishing in the Strange Whirlpool.
- Check out the Vertigo bestiary below .
-
2Open the Depths Gate. Once you've completed the Vertigo bestiary, you'll have the Depths Key on hand. This key can be used to open the Depths Gate found within Vertigo. [4] X Research source
- Once you open the Depths Gate, it will stay open. You don't have to find another Depths Key to go back to the Depths.
-
3Obtain an Abyssal and Hexed Enchant Relic. To get the Rod of the Depths, you'll have to complete the Depths Maze. To access this maze, you'll need to place an Abyssal and Hexed Enchant Relic on altars in the Depths.
- The best place to fish for Enchant Relics is in the Depths. There's a 1 in 100 chance of catching an Enchant Relic in the depths. This increases to 1 in 33 if an Aurora Borealis is happening.
- To ensure you get mutated Enchant Relics, use rods that give you a chance to get Hexed and Abyssal mutations.
- The No-Life Rod has a 50% chance of catching fish with the Hexed mutation.
- The Abyssal Specter Rod has a 25% chance of catching fish with the Abyssal mutation.
- Rods with the Abyssal enchantment have a 10% chance of catching Abyssal fish.
- Rods with the Mutation enchantment have a 90% chance of catching a mutated fish.

4Place the Enchant Relics on their respective altars. The altars are located in the following spots:
- The altar for the Abyssal Enchant Relic is located at X: 1210, Y: 715, Z: -678. The altar is located near Aspicientis.
- The altar for the Hexed Enchant Relic is located at X: 1689.9, Y: -902.4, Z: 1437.7. The altar is located near Tenebris.

5Complete the Depths Maze. The Depths Maze can be challenging if you don't know where to go. If you want to figure the path to the Rod of the Depths on your own, skip the rest of this step. Otherwise, follow this path: [5] X Research source
- Walk forward past the first opening on your right. Continue straight until the path veers slightly right, then bends left.
- Continue walking straight ahead, past an opening on your right. Veer slightly right, hugging the left wall, but don't turn.
- When the left wall bends to the left, continue hugging the left wall. You will walk past a door on your right that automatically opens and closes on a timer.
- When the left wall veers left again, continue straight, hugging the right wall. The wall will end shortly, but continue to follow the wall, going around the sharp curve.
- Continue down this path, hugging the left wall. You will pass two openings on your right.
- When the path veers to the left, follow it. You will find yourself in the room with the Rod of the Depths.
- The coordinates of this final room are X: 1689.9, Y: -902.4, Z: 1437.7.
-
6Purchase the Rod of the Depths. The Rod of the Depths can be purchased in the final room of the maze for 750,000C$.
- To exit the maze, there is a hidden passage behind the statue in this final room. At the end of this passage is a whirlpool that takes you back to Vertigo.
