ⓘ

Two things share the name: the Crimsonwrath mutation (8× value) and the Crimsonwrath rod that rolls it at ~30% per catch. Both are Black Market exclusives — watch the Silver Scalper for returns.

The mutation

Why everyone wants it.

Crimsonwrath turns a fish red-and-black with red flame particles and multiplies its sell value by 8× — among the highest multipliers in the game. It's tagged as a limited mutation: only obtainable through exclusive or limited-time sources.

The rod

The way to farm it.

  1. 1
    Get the Crimsonwrath rod

    A Black Market item — watch rotation and the Silver Scalper merchant for return windows.

  2. 2
    Catch fish with it

    Each catch has roughly a 30% chance to come out Crimsonwrath-mutated.

  3. 3
    Sell or appraise

    The mutation isn't appraisable — what you catch is what you get; sell high-value base fish for the biggest 8× payoffs.

Why it's trending again

Timing.

The Venue Encore update added the Silver Scalper — a merchant reselling past Black Market stock. Players who missed Crimsonwrath the first time are searching whether it's finally back.

FAQ

Is 'crimson wrath' the same as crimsonwrath?
Yes — same mutation, just spaced differently. Guides and wikis use both spellings.
Is Crimsonwrath appraisable?
No — it can't be rolled at the appraiser; it only comes from its limited sources (like the rod's 30% proc).
Crimsonwrath vs Cursed mutation?
Crimsonwrath is 8× and Black Market-limited; Cursed is 4× and tied to the Cursed Storm event.
