Fishing Experience

Post by MiScHi3f »

Ok so here are some hard numbers that I have proven. I manually fished for about 30 minutes in a Yellow Hot Spot (See Node Map Posted by Tachaeon on viewtopic.php?f=52&t=426) after using a Extra Life Exp Scroll (+10% EXP for 1 hr) and another 15-20 minutes without the scroll active. Both times I had Fishing level at 5 points and of Profess level at Professional 2.

TL;DR at bottom

First set with the +10% Exp
  • Fish color - Experience Gain
    Yellow - 0.184
    Blue - 0.184
    Blue - 0.184
    White - 0.184
    Yellow - 0.184
    Yellow - 0.184
    Blue - 0.184
    Key - 0.184
    Green - 0.184
    Blue - 0.184
    Yellow - 0.184
    Blue - 0.184
    Yellow - 0.184
Second Set without +10% Exp
  • Fish color - Experience Gain
    Blue - 0.184
    Blue - 0.184
    Blue - 0.184
    Key - 0.184
    Shard - 0.184
    Yellow - 0.184
    Yellow - 0.184
    Blue - 0.184
I did not test this in a non hotspot. Also, I do not know if you throw trash away, whether or not you will get the exp. I will have to test that next.

TL;DR and Conclusion: Do not waste your +10% Life EXP on fishing. It did nothing for me. Also the thought that yellow fish give you more exp was debunked too. If you want to level by fishing, find a resource node with "Abundant"

+10% life experience, you are correct, it does exactly 0 for fishing...
but...
the +10% Experience Potions (5min) do add to the fishing.
My Results 2 Potions (10 min time) @ Skilled 6 Fishing, +3 Ability, Abundant Yellow hot spot.

Control Group:
Blue Fish (Sea Eel) .189Exp
Yellow Fish (TileFish) .189Exp
White Fish (Squid) .189Exp
Yellow Fish (Moray) .189Exp
Blue Fish (Sea Eel) .189Exp
Blue Fish (Sea Eel) .189Exp
Blue Fish (Sword Fish) .189Exp
Blue Fish (Sword Fish) .189Exp
Blue Fish (Sword Fish) .189Exp

Second Round Potion 1.
Yellow Fish (TileFish) .251Exp
Yellow Fish (TileFish) .251Exp
Blue Fish (Sword Fish) .252Exp
Blue Fish (Sword Fish) .251Exp
Yellow Fish (TileFish) .251Exp (+Rainbow EasterEgg)

Third Round Potion 2.
Blue Fish (Sea Eel) .251Exp
white Fish (Mackerel) .251Exp
white Fish (Mackerel) .251Exp
Green Fish (Flying Fish) .251Exp


I have not figured out the math yet, because .189+10% does not = .251
but thought i would add my results... I do not think it is worth it, as the potions are about ~20k each.
but if you have the money to blow....
