Fishing

[thejester1]

Hello. Im at 65 fishing and would very much like to see fishermen get SOS bottles, MIBs and other great stuff at gm or near gm skill.

Also, will loth ever get unique item/weapons get scripted in?

Will loth ever convert to RunUO, POL or latest Sphere?

What about Third Dawn and LBR, will loth ever support them?

And I think there should be a guarded mine. Or increase the amount of logs/iron per attempt.

I've got more things to say but for now I need to book into my army camp. So see you all on Tuesday. Bye.

there are custom weapons, no there shuldnt be a guarded mine the amount of ore u get per attempt is fine and no one else has complained, the SOS bottles not so sure about.

[IronFire]

There are custom runeable weapons that have special affects such as flame strike, lightning, extra damage for specific alignments etc. They are rare and hard to find with less than 5 weapons of such a nature existing on the shard since they where implemented months ago.

Vanq/ruin/power weapons fill the gap between these and normal weapons.

Yes fishing needs Tmaps/krakens/MIB's etc but lots of other things also need doing first.

Ok Iron i disagree with : Yes fishing needs Tmaps/krakens/MIB's etc but lots of other things also need doing first.
Fishing has been needed to be changed for a long time. Atm its one of the worst trade skills. It was the first trade skill i gmed. I agree it needs Tmaps/krakens/MIB's. But there is not allot of things that need doing first. Atm all the time is being spent on the new map etc. How about fixing the old problems ??? We dont Need the new map. It seems like the exp system and excuse to get new players.

we are on sphere 55something at the mo, and are looking to go to 99something (which supports the 3D client and LBR)
however, it is a major piece of work, every script needs converted and tested.. so not for a long time

fishing, lol this again. not all skills are equal, im really tempted to say "get over it"
it is on the list, to get lvl1 tmaps, but its low priority

I agree on jester bout the guarded mines, I have a friggin 300ping and when i spot a pker i dun even have a chance to run.... or i run half as fast as that pker, many might disagree with me but dun u all hope to see another gm miner/smithy on the shard??

I reckon there should be a guarded mine but there should only be iron\copper etc in it and it low quantitys. (BTW I don't need to worry about this since I hardly ever mine anywhere near towns).

I reckon fishing just needs a tweak. You still get some good stuff from it (like rare fish and dye bottles).

Y is it a low priotrity. Y is the map a high one. I never heard ne1 ask for a map i have heard loads ask for fishing

yawn

tbh a guarded mine wud suck, i have a miner/bs character tht used to be pked but i didnt whine about a guarded mine being implemented i just found another mine as there are plenty out there you just have to find em.

I reckon fish steaks selling price needs to be increased or the number of steaks you get per fish need to be increased. Compared to some other skills (mining most notably) fishing is a v.low income skill. Your average miner can make 77 gold per iron ingot, compare that to 4 gold per fish (4 steaks at 1 gold each) and you see the problem.
