How to find a fishing rod in path of exile
|
Some snippage:
" You may recall there was a patch where GGG removed the fishing rods that had accidentally dropped into the live server. During the few days before they patched it (almost a week if I remember correctly) there were some Zero Day Fishing Exploits. Now, to be sure, these ZDFE weren't hacks (or I wouldn't discuss or promote them)but they did give players on the live servers some insight into GGG's fishing plans. ZDFE #1 - Fishing poles without finished art began dropping. ZDFE #2 - A few days after 2 verified fishing poles were posted on the forum, someone rolled white sockets on a Fairgraves. Most players dismissed this as a Photoshop, because as everyone knows only Tabula Rasa's can have white sockets. Now, we know otherwise since the introduction of Vaal orbs. Naturally, conspiracy advocates linked the two items, and the player with the Fairgraves began trying to find fishing poles. A second player using chromatics rolled white sockets (it seemed to be an all or nothing changed socket color glitch). This second player wanted to see if the white sockets would stick, but was afraid of losing a 4 linked white socket hat. When he used an Eternal on it, the item went to zero sockets but had an alternate art appearance. Instead of looking like this: The Fairgrave's looked like this: "El Blanco" - as the very unique Fairgraves was called (this was before the race reward) was used by the player (who happened to be carrying Rhoa feathers because that's the way conspiracy advocates roll) to successfully find a fishing rod. That player did not find a second one. I suspect that the same hat was passed around to various accounts during the week, as several fishing rods were suddenly found, raising the alarm at GGG and causing them to do an emergency fishing patch (which they partially announced in the notes). ZDFE #3 Players using El Blanco noted that occasionally on some water maps they would briefly see an unusual status message. Where the game would usually say something like "player x has left the area" the message "You hear a splashing sound in the distance" appeared. Naturally, players spent an inordinate amount of time in such areas trying to discover all the secrets. This led to the discover of ZDFE #4 ZDFE #4 - You must clear the entire instance of all monsters (including approach triggered monsters like buried spitters)before the server will spawn any fishing related items or monsters. Some say it takes about 5 minutes after an instance is cleared for the "You hear a splashing sound in the distance" to appear. Others say it is only total elapsed time of the instance must be over the 8 minute respawn mark. ZDFE #5 - This one is only partially confirmed - The location of the feather(s) in your inventory must align with the potential spawning area. Naturally, you can't be sure where the watery areas will spawn on most instances. Dedicated Anglers seem to like the feather in the top left slots, top right slots or bottom center slots. So how do Vaal orbs play into this? You can possibly get four white linked sockets on a Fairgrave's using Vaal orbs, but Eternals and Vaal orbs don't mix well. Many suspect that it is the process of using an Eternal that matters more, as the chances of getting 4 white linked sockets from a Vaal orb are ridiculously slim. Lastly - if you are in an instance and you see the "You hear a splashing sound in the distance" message, please do NOT set off your fire works to celebrate. It only scares away the fish and is considered very rude to any others who might be fishing in the area.

" Well we can debate on whether there are fish or not, but this is just wrong though. There are rods, fact |

well first thing I do when I wake up tomorrow is to clear mud flats and alt tab for 7-8 minutes and then check back to see if any of those messages have appeared :D

" DalaiLama is pretty much spot on, you should take the time to fully absorb the valuable information he's taken the time to share with you. Aside from that, to answer the point I quoted specifically: The very first fishing related thread I ever read on PoE (and there were a few that predate my time here) spoke of the legendary JabberJaws, and contained a lot of lore about how he came to imbue his spirit into the fishing rods of Wraeclast so that he would be able to continue catching fish, even in death. Jabberjaws and Captain Fairgraves had a tumultuous relationship. They went to fishing school together as teenagers and formed a close bond. This then blossomed into a productive fishing relationship that lasted several decades until one fateful day a massive fight broke out between the two of them over how to divide the day's catch. No one knows exactly what happened during the fight, only that when Fairgraves awoke his Tricorne had been stolen, there was a letter beside him, and JabberJaws was nowhere to be seen. I don't remember exactly what the letter said word for word, and I can't seem to find the thread at the moment, but that was basically the key to working everything else out. It was very obvious that any method to catching fish would involve the tricorne. Eternals didn't exist at the time, but there was a specific reference to JabberJaw's eternal ownership of the tricorne he had stolen, so when eternals were added to the game, that obviously set off alarm bells in people's heads. It was obvious that they were added for fishing mechanics and that their crafting use was just a cover to hide their real purpose. Hope that answers your question <3 |

" Yeah thats impressive and all. Still waiting on a verified fish. Oh wait. IGN:Flickfrap

The story of the Jabberjaw must live on for a new generation of hunters.

I know fishing poles are real as I have one sitting in my stash.....The real troll is the fishing itself...I will try that suggested system and will even do it on normal so I can kill all the monsters with the pole..But I have next to no hope that it will work
those who know little believe they know much.but those who know much have learned of their ignorance
