The Golden Rainbow Leviathan is one of the most important fish required during the St. Patrick’s Shamrock Seas update in Fisch. You will need this fish while progressing through the questline given by Leprechaun Snow, a special NPC located in the Boreal Pines region.
Many players get confused here because the Golden Rainbow Leviathan is not a normal fish that appears everywhere. It only becomes available during a special version of the rainbow event.
How to get Golden Rainbow Leviathan in Fisch (Leprechaun Quest)
This guide explains exactly how to obtain it and complete Snow’s quest.
Finding Leprechaun Snow
Before worrying about the fish itself, you must first reach the NPC who gives the quest.
Leprechaun Snow can be found in Boreal Pines, which is located in the Northern Expedition area. Once you enter the region, travel toward the forest area until you find a small cabin with a green roof near a campfire. Snow is sitting inside that cabin.
When you speak to him, he will give you a quest chain related to the St. Patrick’s event.
The second part of this quest requires catching a Golden Rainbow Leviathan.
What the Golden Rainbow Leviathan Actually Is
One thing that confuses many players is that the Golden Rainbow Leviathan is not a mutation. It is a completely separate fish that only appears during a rare version of the rainbow event.
This means you cannot catch a normal Leviathan and hope it becomes golden. You must participate in the correct event.
Wait for the Golden Lucky Rainbow Event
To obtain the Golden Rainbow Leviathan, you must first wait for a Golden Lucky Rainbow event.
Every so often the server announces that a Lucky Rainbow has appeared somewhere on the map. However, there is a rarer version of this event called the Golden Lucky Rainbow.
You will know it has spawned when the server announcement specifically mentions the golden version.
These events appear periodically, similar to hunt events, so patience is required.
Claim the Golden Pot of Gold
When you reach the rainbow location, you will see a Golden Pot of Gold at the center of the island.
You must interact with it and hold the claim button for about 10 seconds. Each claim rewards players with event currency and two gold coins instead of one.
Only a limited number of claims are allowed, so if many players are present you must be quick.
Once all claims are finished, the pot disappears.
Fish in the Golden Lucky Pool
After the pot disappears, the water in that location becomes a special fishing pool.
This is where the real objective begins.
Fishing inside this pool gives access to the Shamrock Seas event fish, including the Golden Rainbow Leviathan.
Because the pool contains multiple fish from the event bestiary, you may need several attempts before catching the Leviathan.
Using rods with high luck can improve your chances.
Turn the Fish in to Snow
Once you finally catch the Golden Rainbow Leviathan, return to Leprechaun Snow in Boreal Pines.
Give the fish to him to complete this part of the questline.
Completing this step rewards you with event items such as:
- Clover Cluster bait
- Special event rewards
- Progress toward later quests
Snow’s questline continues after this, so the Golden Rainbow Leviathan is only one part of the overall challenge.
Final Tips for Catching It Faster
The Golden Rainbow Leviathan can take time to obtain, but a few strategies make the process easier.
Always travel to rainbow events immediately when they appear, since they are the only source of the fish. If possible, use rods that increase luck to improve your chances when fishing in the lucky pools.
Private servers can also help because fewer players will compete for the pot of gold claims.
With enough attempts during the Golden Lucky Rainbow event, you will eventually catch the Golden Rainbow Leviathan and complete Snow’s quest step.
