Angler Quote Target Item Height Biome
I found this spectacular place draped in giant glowing mushrooms! Everything was blue! I was picking some of the mushrooms I found next to a glistening blue lake, when one of the mushrooms snapped at me and swam away! I want to give it a taste of its own medicine, and give it a good chompin'! What I mean is, you gotta get it for me!

Normally I could care less if I see fishbones floating in the water underground, but this one was swimming! What, you thought that only human skeletons still flailed about in <World Name>? Get it for me so I can stick it in someone's bed!

The subterranean jungles of <World Name> have the weirdest things! Like, there's this fish I saw that looked just like a giant bumblebee! I'm allergic to bees, so you have to catch it for me! I bet it'd taste like a tuna and honey sandwich!

Yarr matey! Shiver me timbers! Avast, scallywags! There's a pirate captain who once had a pet fish named Cap'n Tunabeard, but during a big storm the fishbowl fell overboard! It has a hook for a tail, and an eyepatch and everything! You need to fetch me that fish, so I can be as cool as a pirate! Obviously it's out in the ocean somewhere! Duh!

There's a rumor going around that there are islands that float high up in the sky, and that they have amazing treasure! Who cares about that though, what's even cooler is that sometimes lakes form in the clouds, and in those lakes are fish made out of clouds! I wanna know what it tastes like, so you better go catch it for me!

There's a cursed fish swimming in the waters of the deepest corruption! It was forged of the cursed flames that spread from the fallen horrors that lurk down there. They say not even water can put out this fire, and that it can burn forever. I can think of some awesome things I can do with a fish like that! You gonna go get it for me, or are you too chicken!?

I was reeling in the big one when this funny talking zombie burst out of the forest lake and started rambling on about this 'ferocious' species of fish made out of dirt! He says it could suffocate ten blokes his size, or something like that... I want it! NOW!

The demolitionist was raising cane about losing a stick of dynamite in the lake out in the forest. He has like, so many, so why does one matter? Apparently, because it grew fins and started swimming away! I don't know where he gets his materials to make those things, but that one is clearly possessed! Reel it in and bring it to me, I always wanted a suicide bombing fish! Don't ask why...

Those demons in the underworld really like voodoo dolls, but I think there's a doll out there who was blasted with way too much magic! It turned into a fish and it does stuff on its own.

Watch your step when wading through jungle waters! Why? No, not because I care about you being eaten by piranhas. I care because you'll step on one of my favorite kinds of fish, the Mud Fish! I also care a lot that you're going to grab me one as a pet!

Trivia[edit | edit source]

  • When talking about the Clownfish, the Angler makes a reference to the Disney-Pixar Movie Finding Nemo.
  • When talking about the Batfish, he is referencing the old television show starring the DC superhero Batman. Besides its theme song, the show was known for prefixing all the hero's equipment with the word Bat.
  • When talking about the Bumblebee Tuna, the Angler makes a reference to the real life brand of Tuna called Bumblebee Tuna.
  • The Bloody Manowar's name refers to the real life Portuguese man o' war jellyfish. The Angler's quote even refers to the deadly poison of the jellyfish, and also referring that the poison can infect others nearby.
  • The Zombie Fish is the last item in alphabetical order out of all the items in Terraria.
  • Unlike the Bomb Fish, the Dynamite Fish does not function as a stick of Dynamite. Indeed, no quest fish has any use beyond the Angler's quests.
  • Quest Fish and Strange Plants are the only items with amber rarity.
  • Quest Fish are the only items that cannot be picked up if there is one already in the inventory. However, they can be moved into the inventory from a chest or bank (shift-clicking and other "auto" features will not work). To collect more than one of a quest fish, the player must store each fish in a chest or bank as they're caught; later they can be moved back to the inventory. You can also hold one quest fish in your trash.
  • No Quest Fish (or any other fish) are caught specifically in the desert.
  • The location information given by the Angler is often incomplete or outright wrong; e.g. he claims the Slimefish can be caught anywhere.

History[edit | edit source]

  • Desktop Fixed typo where “Wyverntail” was named “Whyverntail.”
