Palia Something Fishy Quest And Walkthrough

After learning that an infection is plaguing The Elderwood's environment, this doesn't affect the mining resources as discovered during The Nature of Shadows quest. As such, the next section of the investigations will now turn to the living creatures, such as bugs, fish, and huntable creatures, and Palians can choose which to focus on first.

Palians will also look to the assistance of the Guild Masters, and that is the case for the Something Fishy quest, as Einar will be helping them out during this quest. We've fished out everything we know about this quest, including its questives and a walkthrough to help Palians through this fin-tastic adventure in Palia.

Palia Something Fishy Quest Objectives List

Something fishy indeed is happening at The Elderwood, and Palians must continue their investigations with Subira to learn how this infection took over. While this investigation will hopefully lead to what "The Elderwood Tap" is, next they'll need to examine the living species that can be found in The Elderwood, where they have the option to choose between fishing, hunting, and bug catching.

As they can choose any of the abovementioned activities, fishing could be the best option to tackle first, as they'll need to speak with the Fishing Guild Master, Einar, to assist them. Let's look at the quest objectives for the Something Fishy quest, which will help Palians complete the quest:

• Ask Einar about catching infected fish
• Bring Einar some fish from the Elderwood (3/3)
• Bring Einar some Infected Essence (10/10)
  • Return to Einar
• Catch Infected fish (5/5)
• Collect Infected Essence (50/50)
  • Return to Subira

How To Complete The Something Fishy Quest In Palia?

During the closing moments of The Nature of Shadows quest, Palians can choose which Guild Master they wish to continue the investigations with and opt between Auni, Einar, and Hassian. If they opt to speak to Einar first, they will receive the Something Fishy quest, which begins following the completion of The Nature of Shadows quest.

They can return to Kilima Village and locate Einar, found at Fisherman's Lagoon or near the cave at the Whispering Banks, where they can speak to them about catching the infected fish in The Elderwood. They'll get to explain the details of their initial investigations, to which Einar responds that while Humans won't get "overtaken by the essence," by the "poor fish swimming within the Elderwood's water" will.

As such, they'll assist them with this endeavor by helping them craft a "custom fly," however, they'll need some samples like Infected Essence and uninfected fish, and they can head back to The Elderwood Central Stables. As for where they can start fishing for samples, they can head to the coast of Deep Woods, the De Mer Dock, or the Okanaa Bog to catch some fish, and as for Infected Essence, they can forage infected plants or chop down infected trees to collect them.

With enough samples and Infected Essence, return to Einar, who'll use the items to craft the Elderwod Lure, a fishing attachment and its blueprint (recipe), and they can continue their investigations for Subira by examining the fish species. With the Elderwood Lure, they can begin catching infected fish by locating infected fishing spots at the abovementioned locations to catch infected fish, and they'll also receive Infected Essence.

Once again, with enough samples and Infected Essence, they can return to Subira to turn over the items to examine them, confirming that the "infection" had "assimilated" them. As she'll send these samples to the Order's Labs, this concludes the Something Fishy quest, which they'll be awarded 25 Renown and increased Friendship with Subira, and they can reconvene with her at the Elderwood Central Stables to begin the next quest.
