How to Get the Shard of Time in Fisch Guide

Merlin’s Staff is one of the most powerful rods in Fisch, but obtaining it requires patience and some preparation. The key to crafting this rod is the Shard of Time, a special item hidden in the Mineshaft. This guide will walk you through each step to secure the Shard of Time efficiently.

Steps to Obtain the Shard of Time

To get the Shard of Time, you need three key items:

1. Radiant Crystal
2. Rough Geode
3. Cut Gem

All three items are located in the Chasm and Mineshaft. Once collected, place each item on the corresponding pedestal in the Mineshaft. This will illuminate the dark area and spawn the Shard of Time for collection.

How to Get the Radiant Crystal

The Radiant Crystal is a rare, high-tier item that can only be fished up in the Mineshaft area. Because of its rarity, it is recommended to use rods and buffs that increase luck and catch rate. Recommended method:

• Equip the Rod of the Forgotten Fang
• Activate the Aurora Totem weather effect
• Catch three perfect fish, then land a Legendary fish

Triggering the ROTFF passive in this way will reliably yield the Radiant Crystal without too much RNG frustration.

How to Get the Rough Geode

The Rough Geode requires a spear to obtain.

Steps:

1. Make sure you have any spear in your inventory.
2. Locate piles of rubble inside the Mineshaft where stones and wood are stacked.
3. Approach the rubble and complete the mini-game to extract the Rough Geode.

This step is straightforward once you have the required spear.

How to Get the Cut Gem

The Cut Gem is tied to the Minecart puzzle inside the Mineshaft.

Steps:

1. Find the Minecart moving along the tracks.
2. Wait for it to approach the diversion point.
3. Interact with the nearby switch to derail the cart, sending it crashing into a wall.
4. Walk to the cart and press the E key to collect the Cut Gem.

This item completes the trio needed to unlock the Shard of Time.

After collecting the Radiant Crystal, Rough Geode, and Cut Gem, return to the pedestals in the center of the Mineshaft. Place each item in its designated spot. This will trigger a small animation, light up the Mineshaft, and spawn the Shard of Time, ready for you to collect. With the Shard of Time in hand, you can finally craft Merlin’s Staff, one of the best rods in Fisch.
