Fishing Department Improvements / Enhancements

A fishing journal that tracks the largest size of each fish would be nice.

Yeah, change the Minigame to be more interactive:

  1. Fish swims in different directions randomly.

  2. Line minigame shows as 4-directions where you have to pull to the opposite where fish pull.

  3. Line tension matching Fish Pull tension to keep it or: either the Fish escapes or Line breaks.

  4. Line breaking penalty: Durability chunk lost. (I lost so many hooks fishing irl -_-)

  5. Corrupted fish lol

It can be very rewarding like Archage and Bots don’t ‘easily’ exploit it.

Fr? I’m about to buy my first fishing rod for salmon fishing and idk if I should get more hooks now lol

depends where you fish and what you use. Rocky places are a nightmare…

More fishing hotspots and more salvaging resource for higher tiered items. It feels absolutely horrible that when I salvage my 10x large dragon fish and don’t even get half of the jaws, or the toxins from stingrays. Make it viable for potion making and not just spamming low level ingredients.

Corrupted fish hotspots with a chance to catch a 1050 house storage/treasure chest! Like the rabbit one just not as impossible to get.

Hi there cgiink, thanks for the fun fishing suggestions! I will get this post forwarded up to the Dev team so they can have a look. Have an amazing week!

So many replies like this and nothing ever gets addressed unless it’s pvp based. I appreciate that you can only forward it to the dev team but they seem to never listen to the pve side of the game. This is a very valid thread to those of us who spend a lot of time in the game farming but I can confidently predict that no dev will ever respond to it.

Great ideas.

Cant point out any more ideas since a lot of you already did.

Make fishing more profitable!

fishing mods so we can make bis fishing poles and gear would be sweet.

  1. Adding a final bonus to fishing at 300 focus

How about improving the chances of finding a treasure chest

Day/Night time bonuses are silly and need to be consolidated. I craft a fishing rod it shouldn’t only be good half the time. Could maybe say the same for fresh/saltwater bonuses but I dunno.

I completely understand your point but we also need to understand the game developers side. They have limited development resources and the game is losing players daily. They need to focus on big changes to attract more players and stabilize the game. Only then they’ll be able to start adding these cool little features to the game. Besides I think (anecdotal evidence here, since I don’t have any numbers) fishing is a niche gameplay so it might not be financially worth it to invest too much resources on it.

I hope I’m wrong though, since these ideas are super cool.

It’s only a niche part because they made it a slog to level with almost zero rewards. My and many other suggestions in this thread would change fishing into a very fun part of the game which would in turn retain players.

I’d love to see some fishing-related loot in the Fishing Chests. The small clutch of gems and jewelry metals seem very underwhelming. Compared to what I harvest from metal nodes, it’s very much a “meh, what’s the point??” experience.

Thank you so much! Really appreciated. Please come back often to check if there is any new ideas added into the list :))) Appreciated mate.

Added to the list. Thank you!

I actually caught 10 treasure chests in a row in a 3 star hotspot. But I agree with @Spectus , the treasure from the chests are underwhelming really. They could improve that. Added this point to the list too.

Added to the list this point. Thank you
Treasures from the chests are underwhelming, need some quality improvements on the outcome
