In Fisch, the Jungles Echo quest asks you to find and interact with three hidden bone piles scattered across the Jungles area. Completing it rewards you with the Echo Totem, a consumable that summons a temporary fishing frenzy. This guide details each bone location, the exact reward, and how to use the totem effectively.

Formula

The calculator above works out your fishing efficiency during an Echo Totem frenzy. Enter the total minutes you fished and the number of fish you caught. The first output is your catch rate in fish per minute (total fish ÷ total minutes). The second output is the average time per fish in minutes (total minutes ÷ total fish). Both are simple ratios that help you compare different rods, baits, or locations.

Worked Example

Using the default values: you fish for 10 minutes and catch 5 fish. Your catch rate is 5 ÷ 10 = 0.50 fish per minute. Your average time per fish is 10 ÷ 5 = 2.00 minutes per fish. These numbers give you a baseline to measure against when using the Echo Totem or trying new gear.

What is the Jungles Echo Quest?

The Jungles Echo quest is a hidden objective in the Jungles area of Fisch. It is not marked on the map and requires you to explore the dense foliage and ruined structures. The quest is part of the larger Ancient Isles update that added new islands, fish, and totems. Unlike main story quests, this one has no dialogue or NPC – you simply find three bone piles and interact with them in a specific order. The quest is repeatable on the same save, but the totem reward can only be claimed once per character. If you lose the totem or use it, you cannot get another one from the same quest.

Where Are the Three Bone Locations?

The three bones are all within the Jungles island, but they are easy to miss because they blend into the environment. Here is the exact order and location for each:

  • Bone 1 – Near the waterfall: Head to the large waterfall on the eastern side of the island. Behind the waterfall, there is a small cave. The bone sits on a rock ledge inside the cave, partially hidden by vines.
  • Bone 2 – Under the big tree: Find the massive tree at the center of the island. Look under its roots on the southern side. The bone is half-buried in the dirt, glowing faintly.
  • Bone 3 – On the cliff above the beach: Climb the cliff on the western side of the island, overlooking the ocean. The bone is on a flat rock near the edge, next to a broken pillar.

You must interact with them in the order listed above. If you click the wrong one first, nothing happens and you have to start over. The bones do not respawn after you complete the quest, so make sure you grab them all in one session.

What Reward Do You Get?

After interacting with all three bones in the correct order, you receive the Echo Totem in your inventory. The totem is a consumable item that, when used, creates a temporary fishing frenzy in the area where you stand. During the frenzy, rare and exotic fish have a significantly higher spawn rate for 5 minutes. The totem is a one-time use, so save it for when you are ready to catch a specific rare fish. The frenzy effect does not stack with other totems, and it disappears if you leave the area or log out.

How to Use the Echo Totem Effectively

To get the most out of your Echo Totem, follow these steps:

  1. Equip your best rod and bait before using the totem – you do not want to waste time switching gear.
  2. Stand in a spot where you know rare fish spawn, such as near the deep water drop-off or a known fishing hotspot.
  3. Use the totem from your inventory. A visual effect will appear, and the water will glow.
  4. Cast your line immediately and keep reeling in as fast as possible. Do not stop to check your inventory.
  5. If you catch a rare fish, consider using a second totem if you have one (from other quests) to extend the session.

The totem is especially useful for completing the Bestiary or catching limited-time event fish. Because the frenzy lasts only 5 minutes, prioritize speed over perfection – use a rod with high luck and resilience.

Common Mistakes and Misconceptions

Many players miss the bones because they expect a quest marker or an NPC. The quest is entirely environmental. Another common mistake is interacting with the bones out of order – the game does not tell you the order, so players often click the cliff bone first. If you do that, you have to wait for the game to reset the quest (usually after a server restart) or find a new server. Also, the bones do not glow until you are very close, so use your camera to look for a subtle shimmer. Finally, the totem is not a permanent item – it is consumed on use, so do not use it just to see what happens. Save it for a targeted rare fish.

Alternatives and Related Quests

The Jungles Echo quest is one of several hidden totem quests in the Ancient Isles update. There are similar quests on other islands that reward different totems, such as the Sunken Totem or the Ancient Totem. These totems all have the same basic effect – a temporary fishing frenzy – but they may have different durations or rarity boosts. If you cannot find the bones in the Jungles, you can try these other quests for a similar reward. Additionally, some players use the Echo Totem in combination with server-wide events like the 2x Luck weekend, which can produce exceptional catches. However, there is no in-game way to obtain multiple Echo Totems on the same character, so use it wisely.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I do the Jungles Echo quest more than once?

No, the quest is a one-time deal per character. Once you collect all three bones and receive the totem, the bones disappear and the quest is marked complete. If you create a new character, you can do it again on that save.

What happens if I use the Echo Totem and then leave the area?

The frenzy effect stops immediately when you leave the island or the immediate vicinity. The totem is consumed regardless, so you lose the remaining time. Stay in the same spot for the full 5 minutes.

Does the Echo Totem work on any island?

Yes, you can use the totem anywhere, but the effect is most noticeable in areas with a high concentration of rare fish. Using it in the ocean near the island may work, but you will have better results in a known hotspot.

Are the bones visible at night?

Yes, the bones emit a faint glow that is actually easier to see at night. If you are struggling to find them, switch to night time in the game to spot the glow more easily.

Do I need a special rod to catch the frenzy fish?

No, any rod works, but rods with higher luck and resilience will help you catch the rare fish before they escape. The frenzy boosts spawn rates, not catch rates, so your rod still matters.
