Players can craft the Moon Lit, Experimental, Seasonal, & Deep Lenses in Fisch by providing the required materials to the Astronomer Vega. For the Stellar Lens, you must complete the Brayden Quest that requires you to collect six different Stars. You can use these Lenses to observe Astral Anomalies and get server-wide effects.
To use the Fisch Telescope, players require Lenses. At the moment, there are five different Lenses, and you can obtain them by finishing certain quests or by crafting them by providing the required materials to the Astronomer Vega NPC. So, if you are wondering what these lenses are or what effects they provide, here is a detailed guide to each one.
How to get the various Lenses in Fisch
Below are details on all five Lenses in Fisch and the exact methods to get them. All of these are essential to use the Telescope at the Laboratory to observe an Anomaly & get it's passive effects on the server.
Deep Lens
You can craft the Deep Lens from the Astronomer Vega by providing: x1 Hardened Glass, x1 Abyssal Comb Jelly & x1 Abyssal Resin. The Hardened Glass and Comb Jelly are available to fish inside the Abyssal Zenith Astral Cavern, which is present at GPS (-13774, -11179, 173) underneath the main Zenith Pool. The Resin is found at Mushgrove Swamp. Equip the Abyssal Specter Rod or Rod of Depths to get the Abyssal Mutation.

Seasonal Lens
Like the Deep Lens, this craftable Lens can be obtained using materials like x1 Seasonal Glass, x1 Any Seasonal Everturn Sturgeon & x1 Rotting Glass Diamond. For the Seasonal Mutation, equip the Seasonal Rod, while for the Rotting one, use the Splitbranch Twig.
Fish at the center of the Everturn Forest Falls at GPS (2466, 140, -2618) to enter the Everturn Forest Astral Cave to get the Seasonal Glass. For the remaining materials, follow the table below.

As usual, visit Mushgrove Swamps for the Resin, and for the remaining items, enter the Boreal Hollow from the Boreal Island using the cave entrance at GPS (21385, 249, 3816).

Stellar Lens
Unlike the other 4 Lenses, the Stellar Lens is locked behind a quest that requires finding 6 different Broken Stars present all around the map. To start, meet the Brayden NPC at GPS (21628, 141, 4483). He is inside a cabin at Boreal Pines; after that, go to the following locations to get the Broken Stars.
