Was talking with a friend last night and came to this conclusion.
Since the new epic fishing pole is only +30 fishing, shouldn't the Arcanite Pole be epic now? Especially with all the fuss over how difficult winning the STV competition is, maybe the classic Arcanite Pole could use a purple font change and hell, maybe even a graphical update to make it look like something other than a basic fishing pole.
Ideas? Thoughts?
at this point i dont think its worth changing. the colour of the item doesnt change its "epicness" however if there was a change id like to see one of the fishing rods give a water walking ability
Nah, I say leave it be.
Any good Fisherman knows it's the best available. We don't need a color purple to make us feel better about it.
In fact, watching others with an easily grindable purple makes me feel better about my old-school blue =)
the epicness of the new pole is determined by the fact that it's a lvl 70 with 186.2 dps or whatever as well as water breathing rather than just plus fishing.
and if item level was in fact to be judged by rarity, why stop at epic? surely the arcanite pole should be LEGENDARY by this logic?

totally agree on this one.....
but also i think there needs to be a water walking enchant for pole or something like that,not easy to get,only for the most hardcore fishers....

This is a big reason why I only fish on my Priest and Shaman - with the new minor glyphs my levitate/water walking do not require reagents. :)
It's pretty epic to me!
Illuthas <Salty>, 11 months ago:Maybe some questline that starts with the pole and gives you a legendary pole :
The Titan Pole
Binds on Pickup
Two-Hand.................................................Fishing Pole
198-237 Damage........................................Speed 3.0
Durability 100/100
Requires Fishing (450)
Equip: Increases Fishing +50
Equip: Allows you to walk on water
Equip: Allows you to breath under water
Use: Summons Nat Pagle,increasing your fishing skill by 100 and giving a chance to catch 2 fish.Lasts 3 min. (5 min cooldown)
Chance on Hit: Inflicts the target with the Wrath of The Sea-Titan,Changing the target into a fish,doing 1000 damage every 3 sec when not in water (Lasts 12 sec)
OP :D
Would require you to catch alot fish and then kill Ragnaros :o
Seine <Angler>, 11 months ago:I would like a questline after winning the fishing contest like Illuthas said but a diffrent one for each of the items like the trinket will end up becoming a passive spell or something along those lines and the quest like Illuthas stated cept for trinket u gotta go back in time and fight Nat Pagle along with Highlord Alexandros Mograine just for the hell of it and then it becomes a passive ability for when you are in the water and when you have a fishing pole on it turns you into a tuskgarr like the underbelly elixirs do XD
Then if you get em both (like i have =P) then u can get a fishing boat that holds 42 people (yes 42 wtf is wrong with 42 people?!?!?) and goes 170% on water and u can fish off of it xD
And if u cant tell by now <3 the Ashbringer and fishing >.<
