I get down to southern terorkar, and imagine the shock when my first cast in a highland mixed school lands Mr. Pinchy, and BANG, ZOMG, WHAM, first wish is a pet. Outland Angler and Pinchy achievements flash on-screen within seconds of each other.</p> <p>Of course, rng gods still have not favored me with a tourney victory.

I guess posters which are lucky just post their results fasters than the unlucky few, so the results shown here might be a bit biased.</p> <p>I was trying to get Mr. Pinchy ever since TBC. After well over 5k casts I finally caught one a few days ago. Fortunately, the first wish granted me the pet (and also "Salty" title).<br /> Getting the sewer rat also took me well over 5k casts. Less than 100 casts later I got a second sewer rat while doing the fishing daily. I still have the second one in my bag to remind my of the harshness of RNG.</p> <p>Still going for the turtle mount. Just 1k casts so far, so judging from the previous...wish me luck... </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/mr-pinchys-wishes/page/15#post-7559 Sun, 10 Jan 2010 17:53:41 +0000 Aqua 7559@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>1.
