FischFright 2025 has arrived with exciting new content. Players can now collect rare mutations during this limited-time event. These special mutations are valuable and necessary for completing various quests. This guide explains how to obtain all four FischFright mutations in the game.
Understanding FischFright Mutations in Fisch
FischFright introduces four unique mutations to the game. These include Frightful, Spooky, Haunted, and Eerie variants. Each mutation offers different benefits and collection methods.
Players can acquire these mutations through two main approaches. The first method involves using the Halloween Appraiser. The second option requires special event relics and rods.
Since FischFright is a temporary event, collecting these mutations quickly is important. They become unavailable once the event ends.
Finding the FischFright Appraiser Location
The Halloween Appraiser operates at Crook’s Hollow. You can reach this location through two entry points. Either interact with the Flying Dutchman or use the Frightful Mirror.
Once you arrive at Crook’s Hallow, open your Fisch GPS. Navigate to these exact coordinates: 43, 141, -11623. The Appraiser NPC stands behind the Witch character. Look for them beside the merchant vendor.
Step-by-Step Fish Appraisal Process
- Appraising fish works similarly to standard Fisch appraisal mechanics. Follow these simple steps to give your fish FischFright mutations.
- Walk directly to the Appraiser NPC. Select the dialogue option that says “Can you appraise this fish?” The NPC will examine your catch.
- The appraisal cost varies based on two factors. Fish weight and rarity determine the final price. Heavier and rarer fish cost more to appraise.
- Players who own the appraiser’s luck game pass receive a discount. This reduces the appraisal fee significantly.
- After completion, check your inventory carefully. Appraised items display a small green dot. This indicator appears at the bottom left corner of the item icon.
How to Obtain the Frightful Mutation
The Frightful mutation requires a specific relic. You must first acquire and use the Frightful relic on your fishing rod.
Watch for the Flying Dutchman announcement while at Crook’s Hallow. The screen will display his ship’s location coordinates. Travel to his vessel immediately.
Purchase the Frightful relic from the Flying Dutchman for 2000 Candy. Alternatively, try your luck with Trick-or-Treating. This activity offers a 0.49% drop chance for the relic.
Apply the relic to enchant your fishing rod. Start fishing with your newly enchanted equipment. The Frightful enchantment provides a 10% chance to apply the mutation to any fish you catch.
Collecting the Eerie Mutation
The Eerie mutation follows a similar acquisition process. Visit the Flying Dutchman announcement at Crook’s Hallow again.
This relic costs slightly more than the Frightful version. Purchase the Eerie relic for 2500 Candy from the Flying Dutchman.
Trick-or-Treating also offers the Eerie relic. The drop rate remains at 0.49% chance per attempt.
The Eerie relic functions as a secondary enchantment. This means you can stack it with other enchantments. Combine Frightful and Eerie enchantments on the same rod. This combination allows you to obtain both mutations on your catches.
Getting the Haunted Mutation
The Haunted mutation presents a unique challenge. Originally, players obtained this mutation from the Haunted rod.
Unfortunately, the Haunted rod is no longer available in the game. Current players cannot acquire this equipment through normal means.
Your best option is to use the appraisal method. Visit the FischFright Appraiser at Crook’s Hallow. Appraise multiple fish to increase your chances of receiving the Haunted mutation.
Acquiring the Spooky Mutation
- The Spooky mutation comes from Spooky-enchanted rods. You have two ways to obtain this enchantment.
- Purchase Spooky relics from the Flying Dutchman—these cost 2500 Candy per relic. The Flying Dutchman appears at Crook’s Hallow during event announcements.
- Trick-or-Treating offers another path to the Spooky relic. This method has a 0.49% drop chance. Patience and persistence help when using this approach.
- Players who own a Spooky Rod automatically gain access to this mutation. Use the rod while fishing to apply Spooky mutations to your catches.
Tips for Maximizing Mutation Collection
- Save your Candy for important purchases. Prioritize relics that give you the most needed mutations first.
- Stack multiple enchantments on your rod when possible. This increases your chances of getting rare mutations.
- Participate in Trick-or-Treating regularly. Even with low drop rates, consistent attempts improve your odds.
- Appraise fish strategically to conserve resources. Focus on higher rarity catches for better mutation chances.
- Complete event quests that reward Candy. This provides more currency for purchasing relics and appraisals.
Why FischFright Mutations Matter
- These mutations serve important purposes beyond collection. Many event quests require specific mutations to complete.
- Quest rewards include better fishing rods and valuable equipment. Missing mutations means missing these exclusive rewards.
- The limited-time nature makes these mutations highly valuable. Once FischFright ends, obtaining them becomes impossible until the next event.
- Collectors and competitive players especially value complete mutation sets. Trading and showcasing rare mutations adds social value to your profile.
