I consider it more of an item for twinks, and twinks are already powerful even without the buffs. Someone hasn't been to all the zones... I'm the Ps guy: Psomm, Pso, Psong, pso-on and pso-phorth.

Left my ranger fishing over night in Lower Submerged (yeah I know it's a noob spot) and sure when I checked this morning, my inventory was full. Only caught Irontooth snappers though, would like to see a bit better chance for rare fish here or maybe a slim chance for rings/amulets? Now the problem was I couldn't unequip the pole since inventory was full and ofc can't move with it either. So I relogged and all but still couldn't move. I heard we'll probably get weapon slot swapping, just trying to confirm if that's supposed to work on fishing poles too. btw make sure you clean the entire area before you equip the fishing pole and go AFK If you're leaving PoE, chances are I'll rezz you as my minion! MWHAHAHAH	Posted by Mune on Jul 8, 2012, 5:56:19 PM Quote this Post
Anyone else having a ton of trouble in chaos? I'm not sure if it's server desync or what, but when I'm fishing in chaos (solo, not even in a party) I'll just randomly die sometimes. Might not be a big issue since MoC is leaving soon anyway, just thought I'd bring it up. TehHammer is not a crime!	Posted by TheRabbit303 on Jul 9, 2012, 1:31:18 AM Quote this Post

I saw one of my team mates die there from some blue striped snappers that just randomly jumped up. I think the lay-out of the map there makes fishing simply too risky, or GGG forgot to correctly program the behaviors there. dunno.. Try the Caverns instead. I had no problems there. Don't Touch my Sweep please GGG!	Posted by xchokeholdx on Jul 9, 2012, 2:54:04 AM Quote this Post

I am so tired of unclear mechanics. HOLY WHAT ? I've spent hours and hours perfecting that build to learn that 2/3 of it is basically useless when it comes to fishing, witch is pretty much where you make or break your character. I can understand this is only closed beta and the devs. needing to adjust here and there. But making entire mechanics useless without giving any clear indication is plain wrong. You can't make my whole character useless without giving me a refound of my skill points. That's unfair. I swear pre 9.3 I saw a benefit from building that way. Then there was the wipe into legacy, respecced the same way because there was NOT A SINGLE LINE in the patch notes about the (non) effects of 2/3 of ALL charges on fishing. Sometimes I feel like this is all a huge trolling bait i'm biting on. (trolling was a navy term at the beginning). I'll take a look a D3, wich I had not planned, and give GGG time to make a couple of wipes before I come back. Cause hell this is a huge blow like.... my main going down. This a million times. D3's fishing mechanic was one of the main reasons why I anticipated it so much and why I ended up buying it. Once I hit inferno I found that the fishing was just way too difficult to be worth it -- it was almost impossible to catch anything in A1 without spending a lot of gold on the AH for an SV rod and bait with decent mods. Then after I finally decided to splurge on the AH for them, they ended up nerfing cast speeds on all the SV rods! Anyway, after that, I decided to try out PoE because I had heard a lot of good things about its fishing mechanics, but after all the issues I've been having in PoE too, I'm not sure what to do...

I caught a box. I opened it up but there was NOTHING inside. I felt so stupid. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KezvwARhBIc	Posted by gw_epyon on Jul 9, 2012, 4:40:34 AM Quote this Post

I hate the layout of the caverns though. What about Chaos Twilight Strand? Are the same issues there? TehHammer is not a crime!	Posted by TheRabbit303 on Jul 9, 2012, 3:25:41 PM Quote this Post
I'm a little concernced with the next patch, because this will be the end of the Malström. Since there is no other place for fishing with these kinds of crazy currents and big rewards, I hope GGG will be introducing a similar endgame for high level fishermern with act III. I don't think unique maps for fishing, like the confirmed one below, will be enough.
