It appears that now it grants a skill-up after anywhere from 1 to X casts, e.g. to get from 345 to 346 it could still take 10, but you could get it after 5 casts or even 1 cast. And it looks like it's weighted toward less casts, rather than more.</p> <p>To give you an example, here's the past few skill-ups I've gotten:</p> <p>340-341: 2 casts<br /> 341-342: 3 casts<br /> 342-343: 2 casts<br /> 343-344: 4 casts<br /> 344-345: 3 casts<br /> 345-346: 7 casts<br /> 346-347: 5 casts<br /> 347-348: 4 casts<br /> 348-349: 2 casts<br /> 349-350: 1 cast</p> <p>Happy fishing! </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/fish-needed-to-skill-up#post-10155 Fri, 04 Mar 2011 00:25:58 +0000 b-morgan 10155@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>Has anyone else noticed that the number of fish needed to skill up in the 250-300 range appears to be lower than the table on the <a href="http://www.elsanglin.com/role_of_skill.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.elsanglin.com/role_of_skill.html</a> page? </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/fishing-pole-beatdown#post-492 Wed, 09 Apr 2008 19:10:09 +0000 Ramini 492@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>Hey, I've read on other places that your fishing skill is equal to your weapon skill with a fishing pole however I just started a semi-pacifist hunter (In that she's only allowed to attack with pet and fishing pole) and although my crit rating with a fishing pole equipped goes down when I level it doesn't go up again when I raise fishing skill.<br /> Fishing skill in the 40s now at level 9 so it should have a 5% crit chance but it's only around 2% was what i read false (It DID come from thottbott ^^) or does it only kick in at a certain level? </p>
