Mariana’s Veil is a new multi-layered zone inFisch’slatest big update. Even though getting to the first layer is easy, the deeper you go, the more difficult it gets. In this guide, we’ll tell you How to unlock Mariana’s Veil inFisch.
How to enter Mariana’s Veil in Fisch
To enter Mariana’s Veil inFisch,head for Roslit Bay and look for Dr. Glimmerfin.He will be on the right side of the island, next to a mechanical pier with a huge submarine. Refer to our guide onHow to get the Submarine inFischif you don’t have one already.
Summon the Submarine (from the Shipwright or from Dr. Glimmerfin), and stand in the very middle of Roslit Bay. Descend into Mariana’s Veil. We’re not gonna lie; it takes a few minutes to get to each layer of Mariana’s Veil, and it’s mostly just navigating with the Submarine, with not much to stop you.
Table of contents
Mariana’s Veil all locations
Mariana’s Veil has 5 different locations, and each of them has its own Bestiary.
When you first diveinto Mariana’s Veil, you’ll only be able to get to theVolcanic Vents. To proceed to the next area, you need to reel in a few fish (and items) from the layer you are at in order toupgrade your Submarine and Glimmerfin Suit.Some of these are pretty straightforward; others, not so much. When you finish a layer, you can use the portal to go back to the surface and dive back into Mariana’s Veil (it’s easier that way than diving back from the layer you were in).After each upgrade, you’ll get to go a bit deeper.We’ll guide you through each layer.
Volcanic Vents
Volcanic Vents can get pretty hot, but even without any protection,you should be able to get everything you need and completeyour Bestiary. Still, we recommend you set this area as your new spawn point, just in case.
You need the following to progress to the next layer:
The first thing you need is theLava Crystal.Use the Drillyou used earlier to find parts for the Submarine to mine theLava rocksjust near the spawn point area. You onlyneed one crystal. Once you have it, make your way down the cave and complete the simple obby. Even if you fall into the lava for a bit, you’re able to still make it to the end.
When you get to the end of the area, there will be aLava Pool from which you can fish.You can also buy theVolcanic Rod for C$300,000,which isn’t a bad deal. Use any rod you like to catch theBlisterback Blenny and the Infernal Iguanfish(it shouldn’t take you too long).
As for theInferno Hide, equip Garbage as a Bait, and fish a few times. After all, Inferno Hide isn’t a real thing, so it kind of makes sense that Garbage makes the best bait. This shouldn’t take too long either.
Once you have everything,head back to where the Portal to the Surface isand place all items. You’ll get theGlimmerfin Suit Lvl 1 and the Heat Upgradefor your Submarine. Now, hop back into your submarine, head out the Volcanic Vents, and proceed to go deeper. Alternatively, you can just go back to the surface and go from the very top (which is actually less confusing). Go past the Volcanic vents tunnel to get to the next zone.
Chellenger’s Deep
When you arrive at Challenger’s Deep, you’ll notice atemperature bar. Unlike the Volcanic Vents, this one will go down really fast. In fact, it’s pretty pointless to do anything here if you don’t have theWinter Cloak. Before you ask, NO, the Glimmerfin Suit Lvl1 won’t help you at all. So,go back to Northern Expedition and get the Winter Cloak if you don’t have one already.
Here’s what you need in this layer:
Just like in the Volcanic Vents, you candrill the Ice Crystals from nearby, fish out theCryoskin (using Garbage as bait, and the Polar Prowler with any rod you like. Note that you need togo through the cave to get to the Challenger’s Deep fishing pool.When you get to the pool, keep an eye on theChellneger’s Rod. It costs C$ 2,500,000 but it’s worth every penny.When you catch the Polar Prowler, head back to the Portal area, place all the items (including theGlimmerfin Suit you got on the previous level), and you’ll unlock an upgraded Submarine as well as the upgraded Glimmerfin Suit (this one can withstand cold).
When you are ready, head deeper into Mariana’s Veil. You’ll need to go through astealth section (using the Submarine)with some mean fish, which you need to do without failing. This can be annoying, but it doesn’t last too long, and with a bit of practice, you’ll be able to get through it with no problems.
Abyssal Zenith
The Abyssal Zenith isthe first REAL obstacleafter which manyFischplayers quit and stop going deeper.
Here’s what you need:
The fish and the suit are easy, but then there’s…the Anglers Lantern. You’ve guessed it: this is the item most people struggle with.
To get the Angler’s Lantern, you need to feed one of the giant fish,an Orca or a Megalodon. Unless you have either of these, you’re going to have to go back to the surface, wait for one of these fish to spawn during their events, and then actually fish one out. In our experience, catching an Orca is much easier than a Megalodon.
Once you have one of these Exotic fish,DON’T RELAX JUST YET.You still need to feed this fishand collect the lantern, and that can bepretty dangerous unless you know what you’re doing. Here’s how it works: Inside the Abyssal Zenith fishing pool, there are three hungry giant fish. If you jump into the water, the fish closest to you will swim towards you and eat you if they get too close. What you need to do isfeed one of them an Orca or a Megalodon before they gobble you up. Once one of the fish is fed, it will fall asleep for 5 minutes, which is your chance to grab the Anglers Lantern on their heads.
So what’s the problem? The problem is thatthere are three hungry fish in the pool, and you likely only have one Megalodon or Orca.This means that even if you feed one of the fish and put it to sleep, the other two can eat you before you get a chance to loot the Lantern. This can even make you lose your Megalodon or Orca for nothing (yes, this happened to us).
To avoid this,grab your Megalodon or Orca, and stand at the very edge of the pool(a good location is near the rampy area on the right). Makeone of the hungry fish come towards you, butdon’t feed it until it gets super close(the closer, the better). If you’re lucky, you can even feed one from outside the water. Once it’s asleep, verify the other two fish aren’t nearby,dive in, and grab that Lantern ASAP. Seriously, there’s nothing worse than losing an Orca or a Megalodon for nothing.
Note: You can also buy theRod of The Zenith for C$10,000,000in this area if you want (it’s on the left side of the pool), but we don’t recommend it.
Once you have the Anglers Lantern and the other items, you’ll get the final Submarine Upgrade and the Glimmerfin Suit Lvl 3. Go back to the surface and dive to the deepest part of Mariana’s Veil.
Calm Zone
When you arrive in the Calm Zone, you’ll see a colorful cave with lots of bridges and crystals all over.Look for the Portal that leads back to the surfaceand the Spawn Point NPC, butdon’t set this as your home just yet… because you’ll likely need to go out for this next bit.
In the next area (just past the Portal), there will bea huge obby.You can do it the old-fashioned way, but it’s much easier to climb the orange crystal on the right of the area and use an Advance Gliderto glide over the entire thing.
Unfortunately, the next area is where things get insanely complicated. You’ll see a door that leads to the Calm Zone fishing pool and the final area of Mariana’s Veil, but to unlock it,you’ll need three Secret Fish. The worst part? Each of these Secret Fish can be found in one of the layers you visited. Here are the Secret Fish you need:
Before you kill us for not telling you to get these fish earlier, here’s the reason: You likely wouldn’t have been able to get them without the proper equipment. Take a look at our guide onHow to Get All Secret Fishes inFishfor more info, but essentially,use the Challenger’s Rod with rapid bait(such as Seaweed). We got lucky and caught both theMagma Leviathan and the Frozen Leviathan in half-an-hour,but theCrowned Anglerfish took us the entire day(we aren’t kidding). Apparently, you can catch it faster if you use the Heaven’s Rod, but we really wanted that +20% speed boost, so we stuck with the Challenger’s Rod. This is likely going to take you a while (maybe even a few days), so just be patient and don’t lose hope.
Once you FINALLYget all the Secret Fish, place them on the pedestals,and the door will unlock. Inside you’ll find theRainbow Pool (Calm Zone Bestiary), which also happens to be one of the best zone for Gold and XP farming currently. You can also buy theEthereal Prism Rodfor a whoppingC$15,000,000. It’s currently considered thesecond-best rod in the game.
Veil of the Forsaken
Past the Rainbow Pool (still in the Calm Zone), you’ll noticefour different colored statues. This is a, so-called puzzle that guards the entrance to the final zone of Mariana’s Veil.It’s not really a puzzle; you just need to push each statue forwarduntil it turns bright green.You have only one minute to do this but it really shouldn’t take you more than one attempt. The order is always random so just push each statue forward until they are all green.
When all the statues are green, it will unlock the door to the final area.Hop inside and step through the portal. There may be a timer before you’re able to access the final area. Once you step in, get ready for theboss fight with Scylla.
Honestly, it’s not too bad, especially if youhave the Advanced Glider.Scylla will try to shoot you with elemental attacks, but as long as youkeep moving and glidingwith the Advanced Glider, you should be fine. While you’re doing this, you need to navigate around the area and collectthree pieces of the Crossbow: Crossbow Base, Crossbow Arrow, and Crossbow Bow.If you fall into the water or die from attacks, you’ll need to restart the fight. you’re able to also run out of time (you need to do it in less than 10 minutes). We found the best way to collect all parts is tomove to the left when you enter the zone.
Once youget all three parts, make your way to the entrance of the zoneandhead right, there are ladders that lead upto a platform with a crossbow. Take out each part, place them on the crossbow and just like that, you’ll defeat the boss and finish this update. Congrats!Your reward is the ability to buy the Leviathan Fang Rodfor C$1,000,000 and access to theVeil of the Forsaken fishing pool.From now on, you can also take part in trying to fish out a Scylla.
There you have it. That’s the entire update. Pat yourself on the back because this was by no means easy. Have fun playingFisch, and check out ourFischcodesif you haven’t already.
