The STV one wasn't as bad. That one only took me like 3-4 months. I don't remember. But, if the title's important to you, you'll find a way to get out there and fish.. =D I remember when I got my STV one, it was during the super bowl. &gt;.&lt; The year the saints won. I figured less players would be on during the superbowl, so I had an advantage. I also enlisted the help of some of my friends, to roam the beaches, distrupting fellow horde anglers, or kill the Alliance punks. Hehe' It was such fun times when I was doing those stupid derbies. I hope they stay like this forever. </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/extravaganza-in-salty-achievement/page/8#post-10608 Wed, 23 Nov 2011 02:50:28 +0000 LunevaLee 10608@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>Sorry, Minivini and all you that have the opinion of "It's too bad you can't fish on Sundays(and now Saturdays)" No this isn't right, since the time is restricted it makes PERFECT sense for this to be a Feat of Strength, not part of the achievement. </p> <p> I have worked double shift on Sundays for seven years, and two years ago, they decided I'd be double shift on Saturday, as well. Unlike some of you who are unemployed or dependent on others, I cannot quit my job, and in this economy it's not a real option to find another. I cannot get this achievement, unless say, it's a holiday, and every other WoW fisherman is going to be out there, too. It's ridiculous really. It doesn't add to the rarity, you know what does?: One that Didn't Get Away.</p> <p> Players that have Salty and are saying it'll take away from you, GUESS WHAT? Most of you have said you've won it multiple times! It's obviously not hard for you! The ones who are complaining, are the ones who can't even get ONE opportunity to compete in a single tournament. So get over yourselves, it should be changed. </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/i-won#post-10592 Sat, 12 Nov 2011 21:02:26 +0000 Morrow 10592@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>Congrats! </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/i-won#post-10591 Sat, 12 Nov 2011 19:32:25 +0000 gertluz 10591@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>I just won/lost in a crazy way</p> <p>I read/saw that fishing skill didnt matter and figured i would try to win the derby. It was 3 mins till start and i had to burn my hearth to get to org find a mage and then get a port. The derby started while i was still in flight to where i was going to fish. I decided to fish the river between grizzly hills and dragonblight. it took about 8 minutes and i caught the shark. I head back to dal on my flying mount and land in front of the guy and noone else is there so i decided to look at the two items to figure out which one i wanted when someone lands so i hurry and click the ring, and complete quest, We both get the achievement but only his name is declared winner so i guess i lost but dont take it so hard since i got the achievement and the ring. :) </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/i-won#post-10528 Sun, 11 Sep 2011 08:31:36 +0000 Quagaar 10528@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>Congrats.. ^__^</p> <p>I still enjoy slogging every Sat and Sun to no avail.

Now my next hunt is for the Dark Herring. :D</p> <p>edit: I caught 24 Deep Sea Monsterbelly, 1 Crystallized Water, 2 Crates and 1 Blacktip Shark.

So there are requirements that are difficult - I think that's part of the point. Can't fish on weekends? Well, stop worrying about it. Find another challenging achievment and move on.</p> <p>My only wish would be that maxing out the professions should gain you some advantage. Perhaps a better casting accuracy for fishing? </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/how-many-salty-characters-do-you-have#post-10487 Sun, 14 Aug 2011 18:26:45 +0000 PiggyWiggy 10487@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>Well let's officially make that 4.

I have been playing for about 4 months now and already won the extravaganza twice.. there is a lot of skilled involved in this and if anything is the most proud acheivement of them all for any angler.. I have strategies that have helped not only myself but another person win it for their first time (with a little help from me killing any horde or marked pvpers in his way too) </p> <p>Wait... what are we talking about? </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/extravaganza-in-salty-achievement/page/8#post-10455 Mon, 25 Jul 2011 06:42:09 +0000 Grayseven 10455@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>I've already seen one hard to get title nerfed and I'll honestly say I'd rather not see it happen again.</p> <p>I just recently completed Master Angler after over two years of effort. I knew going in that it is a very difficult achievement (just as I knew exactly what the Insane grind was going to be like) and I steeled myself to doing it.</p> <p>Taking out the tourney requirements would be to the detriment of the title. Only 104 or so people a year can win on each server, which means that outside of server first raid titles and certain PvP titles, Salty is one of the rarest titles in game today, if not the rarest.</p> <p>Tourney wins personify fishing. Part skill, part luck, winning the tourney is all about being in the right place at the right time with the right strategy. </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/extravaganza-in-salty-achievement/page/8#post-10449 Tue, 19 Jul 2011 17:55:41 +0000 PiggyWiggy 10449@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>It should not be removed at all. There are some great strategies that can be used to win the Derby. The Kaluak Derby is pure luck when fishing schools. Some placement strategies can be used in that one. I have yet to win the Kaluak contest, but I will try till I get it, cause I need those boots.</p> <p>The STV contest I've won 3 times out of the 4 times I've tried. I also helped my guildmate win it on his first attempt. </p> <p>Leave it in. Leave Salty exclusive. Part of fishing is strategy. </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/extravaganza-in-salty-achievement/page/8#post-10410 Mon, 04 Jul 2011 05:54:14 +0000 chiwa 10410@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>I have Salty, but got mine in the Kaluak derby, not STV. If a disticntion was made, it would not bother me. Make STV a Feat of Strength with another title. I may try it tomorrow. my realm had no winner in the kalu'ak derby yesterday. maybe no more interest in fishing, and I can fish in peace. have to go fishing for real at 6am. </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/northrends-pools-distribution-map#post-10313 Tue, 03 May 2011 03:47:12 +0000 Mightfish 10313@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>re-uploaded：<br /> <a href="https://sites.google.com/site/wowfishpool/distribution/distribution.jpg?attredirects=0">https://sites.google.com/site/wowfishpool/distribution/distribution.jpg?attredirects=0</a> </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/northrends-pools-distribution-map#post-10082 Mon, 31 Jan 2011 14:06:21 +0000 Christhina 10082@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>JTB, I am now getting the same.</p> <p>Sadly, it seems the map (which was very well done), along with our friend Mightfish, seems to have disappeared :( </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/northrends-pools-distribution-map#post-10024 Sat, 22 Jan 2011 20:22:35 +0000 jtb 10024@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>I am getting a 404 error when i try to access these, are they no longer posted? </p>
