The latest Fisch update brings new activities and improvements for players to explore, from the Headless Horseman quest to changes involving the Astral Observatory. There are also new customization options, quality-of-life improvements, and a fresh code to redeem.
In this guide, we’ll go through the important additions and explain what each feature does. Whether you want to work through the new quest, learn about Baby Nessie, or customize your base, there is something new to check out.
I’ll also cover the Observatory changes, aquarium layouts, bug fixes, and the upcoming Venue Encore event so you can keep track of everything included in this update.
Fisch Headless Horseman Update Guide – Codes, New Quests
Headless Horseman Quest
The Headless Horseman quest is one of the main additions in this update. You can find the mysterious figure outside the chapel and begin investigating the activity surrounding it.
During the quest, you’ll need to complete light-based trials. Pay attention to the flashes and time your casts while the light is active to help stabilize the energy. You’ll also need to recover an item as part of the process.
Completing these steps contributes to your Halloween expertise, so take your time with the timing challenges rather than casting without watching the light.
Baby Nessie Companion
Baby Nessie is another new addition, with bonuses connected to FischFright mutations and fishing performance.
Here are the main details:
- Mutation chance: Baby Nessie provides a bonus chance for FischFright mutations.
- Progress speed: Its progress-speed effects depend on the fish’s size and resilience.
- Nighttime effects: Its passive effects are stronger at night.
- Daytime effects: The passive effects are slightly reduced during the day.
If you plan to use Baby Nessie, consider the time of day and the fish you’re trying to catch to make better use of its effects.
Astral Observatory Changes
The Astral Observatory has received several adjustments that make its systems easier to manage.
Improved Anomaly Interface
Anomalies now have a dedicated interface and visual effects to help you identify what is happening. Different anomalies also require different amounts of charge, so check the requirements before activating one.
Charging and Managing Equipment
You can recharge individual charges using Enchant Relics. The way lenses and batteries are handled has also changed: they are now managed automatically through the interface instead of needing to be managed in your inventory.
Astral Activator
The new Astral Activator lets you activate the Observatory remotely from anywhere on the map. However, it does not let you swap lenses or recharge them remotely, so those tasks still need to be handled separately.
The update also adjusts certain battery crafting recipes and improves Celestial Congregation.
Customize Your Base With the New Leaderboard
The base leaderboard now supports more statistics and personal information. The expanded options include detailed Bestiary progress and personal achievements.
This gives you more ways to show your progress and customize the information displayed at your base. Check the available options to see which stats best represent your fishing progress.
New Aquarium Layouts
Several aquarium layouts are now available to purchase, giving you more choices for how your base looks.
The new layouts include:
- Tranquil
- Auction House
- Skydock
- Music Venue
Furniture placement has also been improved. You can stack furniture on shelves and tables, making it easier to create a more customized aquarium.
Another useful change is that layouts remember their furniture arrangements. If you switch layouts and later return to a previous one, its saved furniture arrangement can be restored. Some furniture hitboxes have also been reduced to make placement less awkward.
Fisch Update Bug Fixes and Improvements
Alongside the new content, the update addresses several existing issues.
- Visibility has been improved during all Astral Anomalies.
- Private server owners and the player who spawned the current anomaly can override it.
- The Season 4 Crew Reward skin has been replaced, with the previous skin moved to Igneous Rupturer.
- Controller navigation has received fixes.
- Certain furniture hitboxes have been reduced.
- Astral Observatory equipment management has been streamlined.
These changes focus on making existing systems easier to use while improving the overall experience.
New Fisch Code
There is also a new code to try in this update.
| Code | Reward |
|---|---|
ChapelTroubles |
No specific reward was listed in the available details. |
Enter the code in Fisch to check whether it is still redeemable. If it does not work, it may have expired or may no longer be active.
This Fisch update combines a new Halloween quest with companion effects, Astral Observatory improvements, base customization, and several bug fixes. The Headless Horseman quest and Baby Nessie are worth checking out first if you want to explore the new content, while the aquarium layouts and expanded leaderboard give you more ways to personalize your base.
Remember to try the ChapelTroubles code and check back for more information about Venue Encore as its release gets closer.
