How do you get Viktor's fiddle?
In the very first starmail Viktor sends you, he mentions in the post scriptum a fiddle he lost "while fleeing a feral boom slime". He then says he would really like to have it back, and he would be grateful if we found it. Can we? If yes, how?
My first reflex was to think of the only (if I remember correctly) feral boom slimes I know of: the ones in the Moss Blanket. I have set up a snare here but only caught a Tangle Gordo (wtf tangles don't even live in the Moss Blanket). So I tried feeding the feral slimes; they didn't drop anything.
Was I getting my hopes up? If we are truly unable to find it, welp, mentionning it in the starmail really got my hopes up. Could we get this as a side quest in a future update? Am I idiotic because we can actually find it but I just didn't figure out how?
Help pls!

Prior to 1.4.0, it wasn't an option to find. After 1.4.0, it still isn't an option to find (they could have made a T2 treasure pod contain it ye know? Won't go on my full rant here but yeah) and many of us who were hyped for 1.4.0 had a similar response when 1.4.0 dropped...

As for the tangle note, presume you were using meat for the bait (likely painted hens), if you've got the desert unlocked, any meat has a chance to give a tangle on basic and advanced snares, and painted have a larger chance.

Oh
O H
Why would you mention it? Why make Viktor say "I would really appreciate of you'd get it back"?
Poor game design choice ;,) I wish we could get it from the feral boom slimes. Would make sense. Welp, thanks for the confirmation, I am no dummy, just expecting too much!

How does that make any sense ? They haven't touched the game in years. Nothing's going to change.

maybe in a secret update they added it
