Not only will Nepenthe get a small boost, but so will everyone who uses the pole after her. Thanks! </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/i-stopped-doing-the-fishing-daily#post-988 Tue, 03 Jun 2008 21:39:55 +0000 Oberweiss 988@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <blockquote><p>I can't even equip one of them, as the pole she is using is the non-BoP Strong Iron Pole which is a "loaner" from the guild.

When I applied the line to a friend's Big Iron fishing pole over a year ago, I was able to trade it back to him. </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/i-stopped-doing-the-fishing-daily#post-978 Tue, 03 Jun 2008 12:00:12 +0000 Leonie 978@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>Teehee... reminds me of my troubles with the Fishing Extravaganza, over two years ago. I won it twice without ever seeing the Eternium Line drop and had to keep going back for weeks. In that time I fished up six Lucky Hats ... two on each of two successive Sundays and single ones in the remaining weeks.</p> <p>Now that I'm levelling a second Druid, she has fished up two Eternium Lines, and absolutely nothing else. I can't even equip one of them, as the pole she is using is the non-BoP Strong Iron Pole which is a "loaner" from the guild. (The line would make it soul-bound, I believe.)</p> <p>I only have one level 70 capable of doing dailies, but thankfully she has had the blue hat drop. I've seen the 2 Ring twice on my relatively low-pop server, so I just live in hope of that every time I open a bag now ... </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/i-stopped-doing-the-fishing-daily#post-824 Fri, 09 May 2008 13:25:01 +0000 Calabar 824@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>I stopped doing the daily fishing quest for a while. Part of the reason was Children’s Week. I had about 11 characters to take through the Outland quests and about 40 characters to take through the Azeroth quests. So that took up a lot of time. But the main reason I stopped was because of that ricken fracken fishing hat. *sigh*</p> <p>I was taking four characters through the fishing quests every day. Cashara got the fishing hat first day. Woot! I was a happy gamer, especially when I heard how rare of a drop it was. Then I got the hat a second time, again on Cashara. It was frustrating because I had three other characters who wanted that hat. So I reluctantly vendored it. Time passed and the hat dropped again. And again it was Cashara who got it. Once again I had to vendor it. And that just kind of sucked the fun out of the quests for me. So I stopped.</p> <p>Last night, having finished all my pet quests from Children’s Week, I tried the fishing quest again. I started with Farli this time, my male dwarf hunter. And to my complete joy he got the fishing hat. I’m a happy gamer once again and I’ve forgiven the random loot generator. </p> <p>Speaking of random loot generation, I’ve now gotten four fishing hats and three Eyes of the Sea, but I’ve yet to get a single monocle. I guess it’s called random for a reason. </p>
