I remember last time I fished outside <a href="/fish/?s=Zul'Aman" title="Fish Finder - Zul'Aman.">Zul'Aman</a>, I saw what you saw recently. It didn't make much sense to be able to catch "level 70" fish in a 11-20 zone, so it is logical it changed. Although <a href="/fish/?s=Deadwind Pass" title="Fish Finder - Deadwind Pass.">Deadwind Pass</a> is pretty easy to fish at lowish level too, assuming you have the required skill. </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/242-changes#post-707 Sat, 26 Apr 2008 22:23:28 +0000 Lilyana 707@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>I may be wrong... but I have been fishing outside ZA all day (where I previously have been able to fish up Lightning Eels, Crescent-Tail Skullfish, Barbed Gill Trout, and Bloodfin Catfish) but have only managed to lure in Raw Bristlewhisker Catfish and Raw Longjaw Mudsnappers. Perhaps they changed the catches avaliable in this area? It's either that or I am having really bad luck =P Hope someone else has time to confirm this. </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/242-changes#post-676 Thu, 24 Apr 2008 18:16:32 +0000 Oberweiss 676@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>Thank you for the update. </p> <p>I wonder if this means they'll come out with a recipe to cook the <a href="/fish/?s=Luminous Bluetail" title="Fish Finder - Luminous Bluetail.">Luminous Bluetail</a> into something more useful. I'll probably do some stocking up now, since they seem to be easier to catch pre-2.4.2. </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/242-changes#post-674 Thu, 24 Apr 2008 14:40:03 +0000 Pipre 674@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>If you remember back to the pre-BC mini patches they did mess with things. I think Blizzard uses this time between expansions to experiment with mechanics that they might be implementing in the next expansion. Most of the really odd mechanics will probably not make it into the live patch, but instead into the expansion. I would be surprised if some of the changes make it in. </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/242-changes#post-672 Thu, 24 Apr 2008 11:48:59 +0000 Calabar 672@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>There seem to be some odd changes in this patch, many of which could be considered nerfs. It makes me wonder what the powers that be at Blizzard are intending by it. Maybe if they nerf things bad enough they can “fix” them in the expansion and make it all the more popular. *shrugs* I don’t know what’s up. Unlike most patch notes these have left me scratching my head. So I can’t say I’m all that surprised fishing is getting whacked by the nerf bat as well. </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/242-changes#post-668 Wed, 23 Apr 2008 20:57:11 +0000 el 668@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>I thought <a href="/fish/?s=Isle of Quel'Danas" title="Fish Finder - Isle of Quel'Danas.">Isle of Quel'Danas</a>' fishing was worthless already, but the latest 2.4.2 Public Test Realm has nerfed the catches even further. Based on a sample of 347:</p> <ul> <li>77% <a href="/fish/?s=Giant Sunfish" title="Fish Finder - Giant Sunfish.">Giant Sunfish</a></li> <li>15% <a href="/fish/?s=Jaggal Clams" title="Fish Finder - Jaggal Clams.">Jaggal Clams</a></li> <li>7% <a href="/fish/?s=Bloated Giant Sunfish" title="Fish Finder - Bloated Giant Sunfish.">Bloated Giant Sunfish</a></li> </ul> <p>Bloated Giant Sunfish now contain 1-4 <a href="/fish/?s=Lightning Eel" title="Fish Finder - Lightning Eel.">Lightning Eel</a>, 1-2 <a href="/fish/?s=Luminous Bluetail" title="Fish Finder - Luminous Bluetail.">Luminous Bluetail</a>, 3-5 <a href="/fish/?s=Seaweed" title="Fish Finder - Seaweed.">Seaweed</a>, "Mostly Digested Fish" (grey fish-bones), plus odd herb, ore and scroll as before (but less commonly, because of the new drops).</p> <p>This means Luminous Bluetail are no longer caught directly by fishing - they can only be found within Bloated Giant Sunfish. However, Luminous Bluetail now share cooldown with 'lock healthstones (and I guess everything else on that timer) and not mana/healing potions.</p> <p>I wonder if there is anything else lurking in the patch? </p>
