Post by Peter T.Post by Catriona RGot him! I hit lucky last week and fished up a whole gold coin, been
doing it bit by bit since and finished tonight - my bad habit of
hitting my fish bind too fast while looting nearly bit me though, saw
the Kingfin fish in the loot window, right as I pressed the button and
it closed without me getting the loot, argh! Luckily RNG was on my
side and it dropped again 5 casts later, but that could've bee very
annoying indeed... lesson learned to be more careful when looking for
rare things!
Grats!
I got a gold coin 2-3 days ago as well. But I wasn't aware how many I
should farm of those, but 1 seems to do it. My plan was to look at it
later, but I look at it tonight. :)
Seems to just be 1, yeah, I got my shades on the first bag anyway,
although one or two comments say it's not 100%, most people get it
first time. After that it wasn't bad going at all, better droprates
than I expected so fairly chill and fun, and a very cute mount at the
end of it :-) Love that otters get 100% swim speed, so I actually have
a use for a non-flying mount in this dragonriding expansion - he gets
used when I do the "scare the pesky ottuks" daily ;-)
Post by Peter T.I'm farming 3 draconium Nuggets in leaper pools sigh... *crying with 163
prismatic leapers and zero nuggets in my bags*
Might be pure luck but I find those seem to drop more often in magma
thresher pools if you've unlocked lava fishing - especially if you
find an "overheated" pool, those have higher chance of all rare drops
(in the same way if you get lucky and find a "deep" ice fishing pool,
that has a better chance of the upgrade items too - only those are
pretty rare; I've only seen one once!).
Southwest of Obsidian citadel you'll find a "Daring Fisher" on an
island in the lava (who is a fishing trainer so shows on the minimap
if you have trainers tracked), and there's often pools near him, I
always check that spot when I'm in the area; the fish aren't worth a
lot now but they're prospectable and I'm a jewelcrafter so I just
prospect them instead, seeing as they cost much the same as ores.
I just wish I could max out any of the harpoon/net upgrades and get
some of the junk out of my bags, between that, rep handins, shovels,
conches and crafting taking up tons of space (oh boy, crafting... 11
types of gem, multiple different parts, elemental bits and ores... and
most have 2-3 different levels...), bag management is no easier than
usual lol, the reagent bag only goes so far!
