If you’re trying to finish Astronomer Vega’s quest in Fisch and you’re stuck on the part asking for five Battery Casings, the good news is that you don’t have to search around for a hidden item or pick anything up from the ground.
You actually have to fish for the Battery Casings, and knowing the right location makes the whole process much easier.
Here’s where to go and what to do.
How to Get 5 Battery Casings in Fisch – Astronomer Vega Quest
From your current area, simply drop down and spawn your boat.
You don’t have to travel an extremely long distance. Your destination is Sunstone Island, so get on your boat and make your way there.
Once you arrive at Sunstone, you’re looking for Merlin.
Talk to Merlin and Enter the Mineshaft
If you haven’t spoken to Merlin yet, talk to him first.
After that, make your way to the mine shaft.
This is the important part of the route because the Battery Casings you’re looking for are obtained from fishing inside this area.
Once you’ve made it down into the mineshaft, you’re ready to start farming.
How to Get Battery Casings in Fisch
Here’s the part that can easily confuse you: Battery Casings are not items you simply find inside the mineshaft.
You have to fish them up.
You’ll probably notice other players fishing in the same area, and that’s because everyone is there for the same reason.
Simply cast your line and keep fishing until you catch a Battery Casing.
You need a total of five Battery Casings, so this can take a little patience depending on your luck.
Best Rod Setup for Battery Casings
Since Battery Casings are considered a rare find, the video recommends using Scavenger on your rod together with a fast-catching rod.
The example setup shown in the video uses the Requiem Rod because it has a fast catching speed when used properly.
So, if you’re trying to make this grind as efficient as possible, the recommended setup is:
- Rod: Requiem Rod
- Rod mutation/enchantment: Scavenger
- Goal: Catch as quickly as possible
The idea is pretty simple: because you’re fishing for a rare catch, you want to get through as many fishing attempts as efficiently as possible.
How Rare Are Battery Casings?
The video demonstrates catching one Battery Casing out of the five required.
With the setup being used, the catch chance shown was around 3%.
Since the Battery Casing is a rare find, don’t worry if you don’t get one immediately. You may need to keep fishing for a while before the first one appears.
Once you catch one, simply stay in the mineshaft and continue fishing until you’ve reached 5 out of 5.
How to Complete Astronomer Vega’s Quest
After you’ve collected all five Battery Casings, you can return to Astronomer Vega and hand them over to complete the quest.
The complete process is:
- Spawn your boat.
- Travel to Sunstone Island.
- Talk to Merlin if you haven’t already.
- Enter the mine shaft.
- Equip a fast-catching rod.
- Use Scavenger if available.
- Start fishing inside the mineshaft.
- Catch 5 Battery Casings.
- Return to Astronomer Vega.
- Turn in the five casings to finish the quest.
Final Thoughts
The main thing to remember is that the Battery Casings aren’t sitting somewhere inside the mineshaft waiting to be picked up. You need to fish for them.
Head to Sunstone Island, talk to Merlin, enter the mineshaft, and start fishing. Using a fast rod such as the Requiem Rod with Scavenger is the recommended setup from the video.
Once you’ve finally got all five Battery Casings, head back to Astronomer Vega and complete the quest.
