That is very interesting thank you !

Edit: so I checked 15 mins later and no where near 1k one, does this happen while cooking or did you just not get lucky ??

ok this is what i got:

21x random sardines: heal 58 life & 5 mana
17x random herring: heal 115 life & 23 mana
11x random cod: heal 105 life & 23 mana
9x 242x life cod
3x 235 mana cod
8x random trout: heal 112 life & 78 mana
6x 300 life trout
1x 366 mana trout
7x random bass heal 233 life
5x 422 life & 28 mana bass

Total fish caught: 88

Keep in mind this is in the pond and at higher levels the pond drops BOTH lower tier fish as well as higher ones, in the evil well in the catacombs i would not be catching sardines actually so the 21x random sardines would be scattered from herring->bass.

Regarding the next step, it's cooking, lets cook up the 422 life bass now and see what we end up getting.

Here it is:

Magical bass fish
Level Req: 10
Use Item to Receive Effect

Heals 845 Life
Recovers 56 Mana
100% Cooked
Quantity: 5

The other fish such as life mana cod/trout are worth something as well, I usually sell them in stacks of 100+.

Anyway now you get an idea. I would have probably caught closer to 8-9 good bass in the evil well over the same period of time.

Damn, so crazy that you only got 4x pure mana fish on that run

Ok now I will fish consistently in the Evil Well for 30 minutes straight and keep everything that I catch on this character (I emptied it out so we are starting from scratch)

I will not cook anything, but I can 100% cook Sardines through Bass and that is easy and fast.

As far as burning fish goes, I dont keep sardines and usually I toss Herring as well.

OK this is what i got (I underlined what stood out to me as significantly better compared to my last run):

33x random herring: heal 117 life & 21 mana
10x random cod: heal 109 life & 10 mana
14x 239x life cod
3x 240 mana cod
14x random trout: heal 136 life & 24 mana
11x 339 life trout
4x 302 mana trout
12x random bass heal 167 life & 54 mana
8x 423 life bass

Total fish caught: 109

So I got a better return in general, however, I caught more fish this time 108 vs 88.

Lets cook up the life trout and bass and see what it looks like:

Magical bass fish
Level Req: 10
Use Item to Receive Effect

Heals 846 Life (I ruined one )
100% Cooked
Quantity: 7

Heals 5,922 life total

Magical trout fish
Level Req: 5
Use Item to Receive Effect

Heals 679 Life
Recovers 26 Mana
100% Cooked
Quantity: 11

Heals 7,476 life total

As a last bit of fishing help/information I recommend checking out this guide: https://forums.d2jsp.org/topic.php?t=80825020&f=74

Hope this helps, if you have any questions feel free to pm me

Ooo wow okay thanks for breaking it down for me ! I understand how it works a little better now will definitely check out the guide. I didn't know it healed that much that is awesome, even as you said you ruined it still that's quite a bit of HP healed. Again, thank you !

you start making money at lvl 10 at which point you can sell t3, but than again t3 are msotly in the 1-5fg range ( for glyph ) // t3 essecence around 0.5-3fg ea // fish around 0.5fg ea

from there each higher tier will net you more

Ok Mike, I have been fishing for the past day and a half, it builds up fast depending on how nerdy you want to be.

Keep in mind I am not the worlds best fisherman my prof is only 19 so yea the value is lower still.

This is how things stand over the last 36 hrs for me (I have not cooked anything yet. I will give estimated stack values assuming that I cooked the non proficiency packs 100%, which I will do when I am in the mood)

229x random herring: heal life 103 life & 23 mana - 12fg (for people who want to work on their cooking proficiency, rate of 5fg per 100)
98x random cod: heal 108 life & 23 mana - 10fg (for people who want to work on their cooking proficiency, rate of 10fg per 100)
115x 242x life& 6 mana cod: 20-30fg
40x 16 life & 239 mana cod: 10-15fg
101x random trout: heal 139 life & 27 mana: 10fg (for people who want to work on their cooking proficiency, rate of 10fg per 100)
129x 318 life & 2 mana trout: 40fg
36x 315 mana trout: 10fg
157x random bass heal 157 life & 57 mana - 16fg (for people who want to work on their cooking proficiency, rate of 10fg per 100)
94x 414 life bass - 40fg
26x 16 life & 399 mana bass - 10fg

Total estimated value: 178fg

Depends what you mean by paying off. I’m at the point where I can buy level 20 items off the market for 1 fg each and sell the essence for 1.5-2fg each. Finally in the profit spot. However I can probably do like 15-20 mutes an hour. So I can make like ~15-30 fg an hour if I have an unlimited supply on the market.

Still not really “worth it” if your only goal is fg profit

Okay awesome that sounds great ! Ty



PMed you bro. As always ty you rock !



Yeah true but that's awesome, at the same time climbing you find the stuff anyway and make a profit off that. I been transmuting everything in town while I heal and got lv 3 proficiency so it's going up lol. I still need to work on fishing/cooking.
