I have gotten "Salty" on a number of my characters and on a couple of them I have fished up everything that can be possibly given an achievement. I guess I just wanted to be like ol Nat Pagle Mr. "The Extreme" himself. I propose putting in an achievement for the truly "extreme" fisherman an achievement that includes all the fishing tourney rewards etc., catching of all the rare fish and many other very creative and dangerous adventures for the hardcore fisherman in Azeroth and Outlands that Bliz can dream up. I know amongst the fishing community it would be the greatest challenge for all fellow anglers alike. Maybe the reward could be a pony keg of beer with a fishing buff that speeds up fishing :) or maybe a high tech reel or combination of parts that would make the Arcanite Fishing rod into a legendary fishing rod only a few could possess with very hard work."</p> <p><a href="http://us.battle.net/wow/en/forum/topic/4015353124#1">Forum Post Link</a> </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/fisherman-fos#post-11300 Wed, 11 Jan 2012 14:22:59 +0000 Enarka 11300@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>I was already done with this, Marlburo, since I caught the 103 Pound Mightfish a few months earlier (40k fish earlier ?). I doubt anybody but you and I ever did this, though. </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/fisherman-fos#post-10784 Thu, 22 Dec 2011 03:01:51 +0000 Christhina 10784@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>I have just posted in the linked thread with full support for this idea, and have included a suggestion that perhaps anyone earning this achievement might be allowed to choose one of the existing rewards from the Stranglethorn Fishing Competition (my reasoning in my post in the linked thread).</p> <p>I really do think this is a fantastic idea, thank you for thinking of it, and linking your thread here! </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/fisherman-fos#post-10761 Wed, 21 Dec 2011 06:53:56 +0000 Marlburo 10761@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>put in my 2 cents as I can't imagine anyone is closer than I am to this "achievement" </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/fisherman-fos#post-10708 Sat, 17 Dec 2011 16:55:05 +0000 Values 10708@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>I posted about this on the forums. Wanted to see if any other extreme anglers out there felt the same way.</p> <p><a href="http://us.battle.net/wow/en/forum/topic/3764966730" rel="nofollow">http://us.battle.net/wow/en/forum/topic/3764966730</a></p> <p>Premise is simple. Expand the achievement to a "catch every fish" version. Don't care if it rewards a title or not, just tossing ideas out there. Could be an achieve or a feat, doesn't matter to me.</p> <p>Thought maybe I could garner more support if I drew it directly to the angler's attention. </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/extravaganza-in-salty-achievement/page/8#post-10610 Wed, 23 Nov 2011 17:12:17 +0000 Xellros 10610@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>Eh, I work on Saturdays and Sundays, straight through the derby and STV extravaganza. </p> <p>I get an hour for lunch though, and it took me about six months to get the kaluak derby. 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/extravaganza-in-salty-achievement/page/8#post-10493 Wed, 17 Aug 2011 20:02:21 +0000 Gaevon 10493@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>I worked *hard* to get the Salty title. 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/extravaganza-in-salty-achievement/page/8#post-10464 Tue, 02 Aug 2011 18:23:53 +0000 christos 10464@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>Totally disagree with original post.. 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/robotic-fishing-pole-idea-and-scope-idea#post-10019 Fri, 21 Jan 2011 23:18:45 +0000 Aninja 10019@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p><a href="http://us.battle.net/wow/en/forum/topic/1922564575#1" rel="nofollow">http://us.battle.net/wow/en/forum/topic/1922564575#1</a></p> <p>on official forums </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/future-fishing-additions-id-like-to-see#post-10012 Tue, 18 Jan 2011 04:39:28 +0000 Aninja 10012@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p><a href="http://us.battle.net/wow/en-us/forum/topic/1658710653#3" rel="nofollow">http://us.battle.net/wow/en-us/forum/topic/1658710653#3</a></p> <p>for my guinness boat mount idea</p> <p>cool idea bro lol...</p> <p>"Too many Poles"(couldnt think of a cleaver name =()obtain every pole...obviously fraction changes for it or just poles both can get </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/future-fishing-additions-id-like-to-see#post-10003 Sun, 16 Jan 2011 07:43:56 +0000 Christhina 10003@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>&lt;grin&gt;</p> <p>I love these suggestions :) Please post this to the O-Boards!</p> <p>Only one comment I will have, that is to say I don't believe Blizzard will make a fishable item of Legendary status - that is a status reserved for major items that are lore related, it seems.
