    Ca Cuong and How to obtain them. Help!

    Hey guys, since one of the new Pet items requires these Ca Cuongs for the synth, i need a bit of help. I know you can obtain them by desynthing goblin weels but... theyre hard to find, the mobs that drop them are few and far between, and its A) a desynth and likely to fail and B) only HQ2 will result in the ca cuongs.

    So, does anyone know if its possible to buy them from an NPC or fish them up? One site said grauberg with little worm, but ive been trying and only fished up black eels and brass loaches. any advice?

    The description says they're carnivorous - anyone tried a meat bait? Meatball or rotten meat or similar? Probably grasping at straws, but it might be worth a shot.

    Re: Ca Cuong and How to obtain them. Help!

    Tried both, neither even got any bites at all, excluding monsters and a rusty leggings. :rocl:

    There WAS one fish i could not land, and it had one ! as well, so was a small fish, that i found in the fayspring area but...

    With the stamina ring from pirate chart, a lu shangs i borrowed from a freind, and 29+4 fishing skill, i could NOT reel one of these bad boys in. i mean literally, going as pereectly as i could i got one down to 25% after several trys. the rest i got down to 40% or higher, the stamina on them is ridiculously huge. it barely moves at all when you try to deplete it, yet recovers as fast as a normal fish if you make a split second mistake. the movement is fairly easy, about cone calamary, but dear god, i hope those arent the bugs. no bug should have such stamina, i dont care how big it is.
