So I'm just starting to fish. I'm also a newer player who just did their first mq. But I can fish easy on my phone and have a couple of questions :)

What % should I auto stack at? If it doesn't matter now at sardine level then what % at higher fish levels?

Should I just do level 1 fish? Or try and catch higher now?

And lastly should I use a fishing rod? Does it help that much?

If you are fishing on your phone I'd leave autostack % at 0, otherwise you're going to have to move too many fish around which is a pain on mobile.

Fish at your current fishing level +1, so if you're level 0 fish level 1, then fish level 2 once you level up, etc. If there is an event with faster fishing you can fish a couple of levels higher but this only really benefits you if it lets you fish up a tier (tiers are levels 5/10/15/20 etc)

You don't need a rod for the first couple of levels but you will need one starting around level 3/4.

Thank you very much :)

In terms of value of fish. What will sell? Cooked or uncooked sell?

And will sardines sell at all or not til higher fish? Thanks again!

sorry for posting again but it wont let me edit for some reason.
my mana fish are stacking fine, but my life fish arent :/ any idea why?

Sardines don't really sell unless they are in huge stacks (I used to sell stacks of 900+ for 20fg). People will buy them to use for other skills but I wouldn't plan on selling and sardines, just catch em and cook em to level up your cooking prof

Herrings might sell but cods and above will definitely sell. You can cook them and sell for about 1fg per 1500 life or 1000 mana. So for instance a stack of 50 cod that heal 350 health per is 50x350=17500 total, divide by 1500 and it's about 11-12 fg

As for your edit about stacking - not sure. Sometimes it gets bugged, I would just trash or stash all of them and start with a clean slate. Rare and Magical will not stack on each other

thank you for all the info!

i figured out the stacking issue. wont let you stack if you have a full stack. just transferred to a mule and its all good now!

im planning on holding my fish until a cooking event. hopefully isnt too long away lol

It takes a loooooooooong time and a lot of fishing before you finally have something of value. Your better off spending your time looking for decent maps, decent lvl 30 and up white items that are good for wells, and lvl 30 and up items to sell to the transmuters (especially when there is a good mute event).

can you find these good maps at lower levels? or is it usually higher levels?

and im mostly just fishing when im on my phone but gonna play for real on laptop. find it difficult on phone to play efficiently

1. Lvl 1-3 maps with +wells will sell for roughly 100 fg
2. Lvl 1-3 maps with guild points will sell for 1-5 fg I believe…..
3. Depending on the event +6 or more evil presences on a map can sell for 20 fg or more….

Thanks!

I just found one that gives +1% guild point map. So that's sellable?

Also what exactly does it do? Give you an automatic +1 guild point when you complete? Or a 1% chance to get a guild point?
