That bag space used for the lure could be holding another stack of fish! It's also one reason (a minor one, but it is one) that I prefer a 2H weapon. Switching to the fishing pole from melee weapon doesn't take up an extra bag slot.</p> <p>While a total skill of 470 doesn't ensure that I'll never have a fish get away, it happens very rarely. Even rarer now that I've gotten the +3 line from the fishing daily. </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/things-id-like-to-see-in-fishing#post-4062 Fri, 23 Jan 2009 18:12:28 +0000 Azaguth 4062@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p><cite>teflamreilavehc <a href="http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/things-id-like-to-see-in-fishing#post-4059" title="View original post.">wrote</a>:</cite></p> <blockquote><p>Things I think we could reasonably expect and would be very cool are the +5 glove enchant, and a fishing bag (I'd vote for a Saronite Tacklebox, 32 slots, holds lures, poles, and fish).</p></blockquote> <p>I'd also like it to hold other specific fish-related items, like the achievement coin that gets mailed to you when you complete Coin Master, as well as Rockhide Strongfish and the like (weapons technically, but acquired through fishing). </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/things-id-like-to-see-in-fishing#post-4059 Fri, 23 Jan 2009 15:28:30 +0000 teflamreilavehc 4059@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>Things I think we could reasonably expect and would be very cool are the +5 glove enchant, and a fishing bag (I'd vote for a Saronite Tacklebox, 32 slots, holds lures, poles, and fish).

The fish there are probably the least valuable fish out of any zone. I'd like to see some water fishing implemented like we had in Azshara and Elemental Plateau, and maybe some best in slot stat food fish like in Terrokar Highlands.

How many times have we seen anglers IRL attach lures to their hat? It'd be nice if either the Lucky Fishing Hat or the Weather-Beaten Fishing Hat had this ability (if they don't already - I have neither, so I don't know)</p> <p>And a 28 slot Fishing Bag would be great! I'm already geared with all Frostweave bags (including bank slots), so a "mere" 24 slot bag wouldn't really be worth the upgrade, considering the content limitation.</p> <p>Edit: Oops, I see now that the Weather-Beaten Fishing Hat is, itself, a lure. But it's only a +75. It'd be nice to stick some +100's on it. </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/things-id-like-to-see-in-fishing#post-3985 Tue, 20 Jan 2009 06:08:48 +0000 Els Pagle 3985@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>I'd love to see several of these, including the species-specific lures (not necessarily for all species of course)!</p> <p>Suggest also: Tackle Vest/Fishing Vest -- I fear game mechanics may not allow a clothing item to serve as a container, but I've long felt that a fishing vest (or a hat, for fly-fishing!) should allow the storage of additional lures that are not in other inventory space.</p> <p>Fishing Creel -- A large-capacity bag that holds only fish.</p> <p>Samboda's "Around the World Fishing" could use the same icon as Fishing Creel for El's Loaner Creel (or whatever it gets called).</p> <p>Dethwolf's "El's Fancy Fish Food" -- ruled unsporting by Extravaganza officials, will not work on Tastyfish. (Perhaps it should also be barred from Highland Mixed School areas.)</p> <p>If El the NPC sold utterly useless items of stylish fishing clothes ("pauldrons" that look like suspenders, anyone?) with no plusses, I would still buy them to replace gear that does not already bear a fishing bonus like my overalls, shirt, gloves, bracers... </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/things-id-like-to-see-in-fishing#post-3951 Sat, 17 Jan 2009 04:28:26 +0000 Talathan 3951@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>Here's what I'd like to see: Lures that LURE. An example to demonstrate what I mean.</p> <p>Bob has a fishing skill of 225, and is fishing without a lure in a location that has a casting requirement of 130. He's guaranteed no lost fish from his casts. He finds that he can average a catch every 20 seconds.</p> <p>Bill is fishing right next to him. His skill is 175, so he's using a +50 lure. His effective fishing skill is also 225, but his lure is acting as a fish magnet - so he can reel one in every 15 seconds.</p> <p>Barney's also fishing there. His skill is only 125. He's using a +100 lure. He's reeling them in every 10 seconds!</p> <p>========</p> <p>But wait, there's more I'd like to see:</p> <p>Here comes "Super Dave." He sits down beside the three of them. His skill is maxxed out at 450. Fish hit his hook the moment it touches the water.</p> <p>========</p> <p>And still MORE:</p> <p>How about lures that are designed to attract specific fish - just like they do in real life. Want twice as many Glacial Salmon? Use a lure that attracts them. </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/things-id-like-to-see-in-fishing#post-3940 Fri, 16 Jan 2009 14:12:23 +0000 zdirnats 3940@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p><cite>samboda <a href="http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/things-id-like-to-see-in-fishing#post-3936" title="View original post.">wrote</a>:</cite></p> <blockquote><p>Very cool ideas indeed.
