Are you trying to figure out how to get Twisted Enchantments in Fisch to make your fishing rod stronger? You have come to the right place. Twisted Enchantments are a powerful new feature added in the Merlin Update (1.59) that can give your gear huge bonuses, but they come with a catch—some have negative side effects, too.
To get these enchantments, you need to unlock Merlin’s Shop on Sunstone Island, buy a Twisted Enchant Relic for 500,000 C$, and take it to the Keepers Altar at night. It sounds expensive, but for players who want the best gear, it is worth it.
In this guide, I will walk you through every single step to find the shop, buy the relic, and use the altar. I will also list every enchantment so you know exactly what you might get.
Key Takeaways: Quick Overview
If you are in a hurry, here is the most important information you need to know about Twisted Enchantments.
| Feature | Details |
| Item Needed | Twisted Enchant Relic |
| Cost | 500,000 C$ (In-game cash) |
| Location | Merlin’s Shop (Sunstone Island) |
| Activation Spot | Keepers Altar |
| Time Requirement | Must be activated at Night |
| Prerequisite | You must complete the Merlin Shard Quest first |
| Risk Factor | Most enchantments have a “Buff” (good) and a “Debuff” (bad) |
What Are Twisted Enchantments in Fisch?
Think of Twisted Enchantments as a “high risk, high reward” system for your fishing rod. In standard Roblox games, upgrades usually just make you stronger. However, in Fisch, these special enchants give you a massive boost in one area (like fish size or stab chance) but might take away stats in another area (like luck or resilience).
These take up the main “Enchantment” slot on your rod. This means if you already have a standard enchantment or an Exalted one, applying a Twisted Enchant Relic will wipe it out and replace it.
Leo’s Pro Tip: Because these cost 500,000 C$ each, make sure you have a backup rod or plenty of cash before you start gambling for the best stats!
Requirements Before You Start
You cannot just walk up and buy these items immediately. You need to have two things ready:
- Completion of the Merlin Shard Quest: This unlocks Merlin’s Shop. If you haven’t done this quest, the shop won’t be available to you.
- 500,000 C$: This is the price for one relic. You will likely need more than one if you want to reroll Twisted Enchantments to get the specific one you want.
Step-by-Step: How to Unlock Twisted Enchantments
Follow these simple steps to upgrade your rod.
Step 1: Find Merlin’s Shop Location
First, head to Sunstone Island. You need to climb to the very top of the island. Look for Merlin’s broken house. If you have finished his questline, you will see the shop entrance here. This is the only place in the game where you can start this process.
Step 2: Buy the Twisted Enchant Relic
Once you are inside the shop, look for the item called the Twisted Enchant Relic.
- Cost: 500,000 C$.
- Action: Click to purchase it. It will go into your inventory.
Step 3: Visit the Keepers Altar at Night
This is the part that confuses many players. You cannot use the relic just anywhere.
- Travel to the Keepers Altar (also located on Sunstone Island).
- Wait for Night time. The altar does not work during the day.
- Equip the fishing rod you want to enchant.
- Hold the Twisted Enchant Relic in your hand.
- Interact with the Altar.
Once you do this, your rod will be imbued with a random Twisted Enchantment.
All Twisted Enchantment Effects Explained
When you use the relic, you will get one of seven possible outcomes. It is random, so you might need to try a few times. Here is a simple chart of what each one does.
| Enchant Name | The Good Stuff (Buffs) | The Bad Stuff (Debuffs) |
| Rage | 40% chance for +8% stab when fish moves | -20% Resilience, -50% Luck |
| Greed | +50% Fish Size (Huge fish!) | -30% Lure Speed, -5% Progress Speed |
| Fractured | +50% Progress Speed (Catch faster) | -0.1 Control |
| Wobbly | None (Do not keep this one) | -0.05 Control |
| Weak | None (Do not keep this one) | -10% Max KG |
| Putrid | None (Do not keep this one) | -10% Luck |
| Pharaoh’s Curse | 25% chance for Sandy Mutation | None |
Note: The Pharaoh’s Curse Fisch effect is very special because it adds value (1.2x) to your fish via the Sandy Mutation without any downsides.
How to Reroll Twisted Enchantments
Did you get the “Putrid” or “Weak” enchantment? Don’t worry, you are not stuck with it forever.
To change your enchantment, you simply repeat the process. Go back to Merlin’s Shop, buy another relic for 500,000 C$, and use it at the Altar at night. The new enchantment will overwrite the old one. This is called “rerolling.”

Frequently Asked Questions
Here are some real questions players are asking about this update.
Can I stack a Twisted Enchantment with a Normal Enchantment?
No, you cannot. Twisted Enchantments take up the main slot on your rod. If you have a “Lucky” or “Steady” enchant, the Twisted one will delete it. However, you can usually combine them with Cosmic Enchants since those often work differently depending on your build.
Is the Twisted Enchant Relic worth the 500,000 C$ price?
It depends on your level. If you are a new player, no. Save your money for better rods first. If you are an endgame player with millions of C$, then yes, it is worth it. Specifically, the “Greed” enchant is amazing for catching massive fish to climb the leaderboards.
How do I unlock Merlin’s Shop if it is closed?
If the shop is closed, it means you have not completed the Merlin Shard Quest. You need to find Merlin on Sunstone Island and complete the tasks he gives you. Once you turn in the quest, the shop will open for you permanently. For help with quests, check our Fisch quest walkthroughs.
Can I use the relic during the daytime?
No. The Keepers Altar only activates the Twisted Enchant Relic during in-game nighttime. If you try to use it during the day, nothing will happen. You just have to wait a few minutes for the sun to go down in the game.
What does the Pharaoh’s Curse do exactly?
The Pharaoh’s Curse is unique. It gives you a 25% chance that any fish you catch will have the “Sandy” mutation. This mutation increases the value of the fish by 1.2x. Unlike the other twisted enchants, this one does not have a negative penalty, making it one of the safest options to use.
Conclusion
Getting Twisted Enchantments in Fisch is a great goal for advanced players. While the 500,000 C$ price tag is high, effects like “Greed” or “Pharaoh’s Curse” can help you catch bigger, more valuable fish. Just remember to visit the Keepers Altar at night and be prepared to reroll if you get a bad effect like “Putrid.”
