Have you ever wondered where to find the biggest and rarest fish in the expansive ocean of Fisch? In this guide, we’ll dive deep into the hidden secrets of Vertigo, a unique location filled with mutated fish and whirlpools that can lead to thrilling adventures. Get ready to explore the depths and learn how to navigate this fascinating underwater world!
How to Enter Vertigo in Fisch
Vertigo is a captivating secret location in Fisch. To gain access, players must dive into a Strange Whirlpool that appears randomly across the map. You’ll receive a notification when one opens, and it’s typically found within the ocean, nestled between the islands. Look for a vertical pillar of light marking its location.
While the journey to Vertigo can be exhilarating, players must remain vigilant. There are also regular whirlpools scattered throughout the map. Jumping into these will lead to your character's demise. If you accidentally get caught in one, it’s best to leave the game quickly and log back in to minimize any in-game currency loss.
Synth – Your Merchant in Vertigo
Meet Synth, the merchant NPC in Vertigo! He offers a selection of unique items, including the highly sought-after Nocturnal Rod, priced at C$11,000. This rod is considered one of the best mid-game fishing tools in Fisch. Additionally, he sells the Conception Conch, a one-time-use item that helps players escape Vertigo and return to their spawn point.
However, it's often smarter to avoid purchasing items from Synth. Instead, consider leaving the experience and rejoining to keep your resources intact. This way, you can save your currency for other essential items!

Maximize Your Rewards: Farming Carbon Crates

To get started, equip your Magnet Rod with Magnet bait. Then, begin fishing anywhere in the pond at the bottom. Make sure to open every catch to maximize your cash and bait collection!
Uncover the Secret Area in Vertigo
Within Vertigo lies a secret area where players can earn an exclusive title. To reach this hidden spot, follow the path to the right of Synth NPC and jump across the hole at the end of the road. Continue through the narrow passage until you encounter another whirlpool. Jump in to receive the title “The Drowned.”
If you own a glider, you can also explore the area beyond the whirlpool. Purchase a glider at Roselit Bay for C$900 near the Albino Merchant. There, you’ll find the Perdido NPC, who may become significant in future updates.
That’s everything you need to know about exploring Vertigo in Fisch! With this guide, you’re well-equipped to navigate the depths, catch rare fish, and uncover all the hidden treasures waiting for you.
