We will also showcase the Plaguereaver rod’s stats, passive, and best enchants.
How to Obtain Plaguereaver Rod in Fisch
To get the Plaguereaver rod in Fisch, you must complete the Plagued Reaper quest. The Plagued Reaper NPC is located in the Toxic Cave in Lost Jungle. Make sure you purchase a Gas Mask and enter the cave. Once there, talk to the NPC and start the questline. Here are all the quests that you must complete to get the Plaguereaver rod in Fisch:
- Plagued Reaper Stage 1: During a toxic boil event, catch the Decayed Venom Maw. The event is random and is easier to spot during the night. Look for the purple toxic burst to find them. To get the Decayed mutation on the Venom Maw, you will need the Decayed Rod available in the Toxic Cave. So, instead of investing on Bloomspire rod first, spend a penny or two on the Decayed Rod.
- Plagued Reaper Stage 2: For the second quest, you need a secret Blight Idol, available in the Toxic Grove area. It has a preferred bait of coal, but remember that luck does not apply to it. So, you have to keep fishing.
- Plagued Reaper Stage 3: After giving the NPC a Blight Idol, you must catch a Noxious Rotbloom. The Rotbloom in Fisch spawns from interacting with mushrooms in the well area. Once it spawns, use the craftable Toxinburst rod, Aurora totem, Luck potion, and Luminous Larva bait to catch the Rotbloom with a Noxious mutation faster.
- Plagued Reaper Stage 4: For the final quest, you must perfect catch a Witherbloom. Spawn a Rotbloom, but instead of catching, use the Blight Idol. This will summon the Witherbloom instead. Use your best rods in Fisch to complete it (it is a secret, so luck will not matter much). Once done, pay C$ 13.7 million to the NPC and get the Plaguereaver rod.

Best Enchants for Fisch Plaguereaver Rod
In terms of passive, the Plaguereaver rod is outrageously good. However, it needs some tweaking in the base stats to be the best. For starters, the lure speed is horrible. I would recommend boosting them up to catch the stronger and boss fish in the game. So, consider the following best enchantments in Fisch for your Plaguereaver Rod:
- Mystical: +25% Luck, +45% Resilience, +15% Lure Speed, +10% Progress Speed
