The Twisted Relic has quickly become one of the most talked-about items in Fisch following the Merlin update. This rare enchantment relic dramatically changes how your fishing rod performs, trading stability for raw power. For players who enjoy high-risk, high-reward gameplay, the Twisted Relic delivers some of the most dramatic enchant effects in the game.
Whether you’re chasing massive fish, faster catches, or pure chaos, here’s a clear breakdown of how to get the Twisted Relic and what each twisted enchant actually does.
What Is the Twisted Relic in Fisch?
The Twisted Relic is a premium enchant relic that completely replaces your rod’s primary enchant with one from a new, more extreme set. Each of these comes with major buffs — but also curses.
This makes the relic ideal for experienced players or anyone looking to push their fishing runs into dangerous but rewarding territory.
All Twisted Relic Enchants in Fisch
There are currently seven possible twisted enchants. Each brings a powerful boost but also a penalty you must be ready to manage.
| Name | Effect |
|---|---|
| Rage | 40% chance per fish movement to stab for +8% progress; –50 Luck, –20 Resilience |
| Greed | +50 Fish Size, but –30 Lure Speed, –5 Progress Speed |
| Fractured | +50 Progress Speed, but –0.1 Control |
| Pharaoh’s Curse | 25% chance for Sandy fish (1.2x multiplier) |
| Putrid | –10 Luck |
| Weak | –10 Max KG |
| Wobbly | –0.05 Control |
Some enchants — like Rage and Fractured — drastically speed up catches. Others, like Greed, help size hunters. A few are purely harmful, acting as the “curse side” of the relic.
