I’ve decided to try to make fishing somewhat fun. I finally finished the artisan fishing quest and I have some advice. When you travel to a different spot and it takes more than 30 catches for you to land the prize quest fish, try logging out and back in. I must have fished 100 fish out of feralas before logging. After logging back in I got it on the 3rd cast. Also if you haven’t fished yet since the patch, it only takes 20 seconds instead of 30. You’ll notice that it’s much better. I’m issuing a few new fishing related quests and their rewards. I hope you enjoy.
? Getting your fishing skill to 300 = 4 GP's +2GP's if you beat Femm to 300. (current 231 @June 5)
? Getting your fishing skill to 225 = 1 GP
? Participating in the Strangle Thorn Vale fishing contest on Sunday. Hopefully Femm and Sofie will be there and it will be a good way to level up your fishing. Here are the requirements for that. = 2 GP’s.
A. 250 Fishing Skill
B. 200 Fishing Skill and a bunch of Nightcrawlers (+50 for 10 minutes)
C. 175 Fishing Skill and a bunch of Shiny Baubles (+75 for 10 minutes)
? Completing the artisan fishing quest = 3 GP’s. See the website for the walkthrough for that. It worked for me.
