Fishing

[fantasticdan]

Just started on haks and I've noticed I can get .3 skillups, is that specific to legendary fish? I don't recall getting anything above .2 up until this point.

how long does it take to get one Dwarf Pugil? How long does it take to dc and relog?

25%ish percent when trading in a Cave Cherax. 2min ish to log in and out.

I've gotten .3 on Cave Cherax before. Not sure if you consider to be legendary.

Can get .3 from any fish. Just a better chance of it when the fish is significantly higher in skill.

Continuing on this: Catching 8 Cherax per 20 minutes is about average I'd say, so 10 minutes per bait is about right. So it seems like DCing/logging back in may be a viable way to manage limited bait resources. However, I'd exercise caution since SE would likely consider it as exploiting the system, and it's obvious as hell to other players that may report such activity.

I dont see it as any different bait conversion than having a second char hold fished mobs. If anything, SE will adjust it so bait is consumed upon bite instead of reel, which will cause shit to bug when bait is consumed when items are fised.

Does reactivating an account cause fishing fatigue?

Can you catch frogs (like newts and stuff) w/o Frog Fishing KI? anyone has any info on it? mostly curiosity (already have all the gear/useful KIs) thanks in advance!

afaik frog fishing only increases your chances of catching amphibians with lufaise flies, along with a realistic chance to catch tricorns.

If you had any character active it would have been active for at least a month which satisfies the 2 week condition. The only other thing that caused super fatigue was being lower than level 20 so as long as the character(s) you're reactivating are above that, you should be fine.

I had my time run out, and reactivated the next day, and was seemingly hit with fishing fatigue on my main character. I guess maybe it was just some crazy bad luck, but I had well over 30 casts with no bite (as in no items no monsters no nothing, trying to get grimmonites for GP) in a row after catching 15 haks.

I have no jobs below 70, so it wasn't the sub level 20 thing.

Were you fishing at the pond in SSG directly under the bridge with the optical hat hectaeyes? There's a dead spot from back in the day anti-RMT measures there... I think that's the spot.

^Yep

I reactivated a few days ago and had no prob fishing immediately afterwards.

Looks like they fixed crocs. can lvl off them now probably to 110.

I was at that pond, but not under the bridge. I had fishers on both sides of me pulling up nebs, so I dunno.

Refresh my memory, what bait do you catch Abaia with?

Sinkers work too

Well in that case....

Well in that case....

I remember trout balls working wellish. sliced sardine works too, and easy to make yourself freely if you want.

What would you folks consider a fair price for a guaranteed Shaper's Shawl? It is someone I trust not to lie about not getting the Shawl and then selling the fish on a mule.

Guess depends on how close a friend they are and your risk tolerance. I mean lots of people went 1/<10 while a couple went 1/200. And on a fish worth several hundred thousand each that's kinda hard to say.
