Rarities
No special rod is needed. Without bait, the odds per catch are roughly:
| Rarity | Chance | How many | Announced |
|---|---|---|---|
| Common | 84% | 23 | No |
| Rare | 8% | 13 | No |
| Junk | 4% | 5 | No |
| Epic | 2.5% | 15 | Yes |
| Legendary | Under 1% | 15 | Yes |
Fish have a size as well as a rarity, and a bigger fish of the same kind sells for more.
Fish worth knowing
- Coinfish (Epic) pays $50 when you flip it.
- Electric Eel (Rare) zaps you for half a heart when you land it. Pufferfish poisons you.
- Sunfish (Rare) only bites during the day.
- Frogs (Rare) only bite in the rain, each kind in its own biomes.
- Atlantic Cod only lives in oceans, and the Legendary Flower Fish only in a Flower Forest.
- Legendaries include the King Mackerel, Salmon of Knowledge, Golden Frog, Blue Axolotl and BLÅHAJ.
Baits
Bait tilts the odds toward a rarity. A rod holds up to five kinds at once. The Fisherman sells five:
| Bait | Attracts | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Gilded Scale | Rare | $30 |
| Abyssal Shard | Epic | $40 |
| Embered Worm | Rare and Epic | $60 |
| Celestial Mote | Legendary | $450 |
| Whispering Leech | Epic and Legendary | $580 |
Selling your catch
The Fisherman (/warp fisherman) runs the bait shop and buys fish. /emf shop opens the same sell screen from anywhere, and /emf sellall sells every fish you are carrying. Custom fish cannot be cooked, eaten or crafted with.
Fishing as progress
Every catch also feeds the Fishing skill, and the Fisherman job pays for it on top. Daily quests ask for fish in all three difficulties.
