+ | '''Fishing''' is a gathering skill that allows players to catch raw fish and gather fibers. Fish can be prepared using the [[Cooking]] skill, while fibers are used in [[Runecrafting#Cloth Weaving|Cloth Weaving]]. | ||
− | + | =General= | |
− | + | Fishing was reworked and released in the v0.10.0 update, it received a massive overhaul and was the first gathering skill in Idlescape that used the node system. Gathering with a node system increases the amount of gathering areas without increasing the amount of zones, the player starts fishing in a zone and nodes are found by the player while fishing and are dependent on the effective fishing level and bait power stats, higher numbers in those stats gives increased node find chance and decreased find speed. | |

These can be used to create food, buff food, or buff potions. There are different recipes that can be used for different benefits, more information can be found on the [[Cooking]] page. |

+ | |||
+ | Players have a small chance of obtaining either [[Sunken Treasure]]s or [[Ancient Treasure]]s. Ancient treasures have a rare chance to drop fishing gear such as [[Ancient Harpoon]], [[Ancient Fishing Net]] and [[Ancient Fishing Rod]] which are used to craft Idlescape's first legendary tier tool, the [[Ocean's Embrace]]. Sunken treasures have a rare chance of dropping [[Modified Diving Gloves]] or a [[Forgotten Soul]]. | ||

− | + | Fishing equipment serves to boost your stats, increasing the chances of succeeding in fishing as well as decreasing the time needed. Wearing the Fisherman's [[Fisherman's Bucket Hat|Bucket Hat]], [[Fisherman's Smock|Smock]], and [[Fisherman's Waders|Waders]] together provides the player with a 15% stat buff, together with the [[Ocean's Embrace]] this rises to a 30% buff. | |

− | == | + | The [[Stormy Seas]] is a dangerous location. While fishing there, a [[Swordfish]], [[Ascended]] or Swordfish Champion will occasionally spawn and attack the player. This fight cannot be escaped from, and losing will lock the player out of the location for 15 minutes. |
+ | |||
+ | =Fishing Stats= | ||
+ | There are various stats that can be gained through levels and equipment that affect fishing. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ===Effective Fishing Level=== | ||
+ | Effective fishing level is the combination of the players fishing and mastery level and the fishing stats on equipment. | ||
+ | It affects various secondary stats: | ||
+ | |||
+ | *Chance of finding and gathering from a node | ||
+ | *Rarity of resources | ||
+ | *Quantity of resources in a node | ||
+ | *Chance to preserve bait | ||
+ | |||
+ | ===Bait Preservation=== | ||
+ | Bait preservation comes from both effective fishing level and the [[Bait Preservation|enchantment]] of the same name which comes enchanted by default on the [[Fisherman's Bucket Hat]]. It determines the chance that a bait is used on an action and is capped at 50%. | ||
− | + | Bait preservation is reduced by [[Deadliest Catch]] but cannot go lower than 0%. | |
− | + | ===Bait Power=== | |
− | + | Increases the chance and speed of finding nodes, and the size of nodes found. Chance is capped at 100% and speed is capped at 1 second. | |
− | |||
− | |||
− | + | ===Reel Power=== | |
+ | Increases the chance and speed of gathering resources. Chance is capped at 100% and speed is capped at 1 second. | ||
− | + | ===Bonus Rarity=== | |
− | + | Some nodes require a certain bonus rarity to start appearing. Rare resources require a rarity higher than the node. | |
− | + | Nodes and resources have a cap where bonus rarity above will not provide additional drop frequency. | |
− | |||
− | + | Bonus Rarity must be above the minimum rarity for resources to appear. Resources not listed here require no bonus rarity to collect. | |

Fishing is a gathering skill that allows players to catch raw fish and gather fibers. Fish can be prepared using the Cooking skill, while fibers are used in Cloth Weaving.
Contents
General
Fishing was reworked and released in the v0.10.0 update, it received a massive overhaul and was the first gathering skill in Idlescape that used the node system. Gathering with a node system increases the amount of gathering areas without increasing the amount of zones, the player starts fishing in a zone and nodes are found by the player while fishing and are dependent on the effective fishing level and bait power stats, higher numbers in those stats gives increased node find chance and decreased find speed.
The caught fish can be prepared with the Cooking skill to create Filleted Fish and Fish Oil, as well as some essences depending on the fish. These can be used to create food, buff food, or buff potions. There are different recipes that can be used for different benefits, more information can be found on the Cooking page.
Fibers gathered through Fishing are used to weave cloth which can then be used to craft magic equipment for Combat.
Players have a small chance of obtaining either Sunken Treasures or Ancient Treasures. Ancient treasures have a rare chance to drop fishing gear such as Ancient Harpoon, Ancient Fishing Net and Ancient Fishing Rod which are used to craft Idlescape's first legendary tier tool, the Ocean's Embrace. Sunken treasures have a rare chance of dropping Modified Diving Gloves or a Forgotten Soul.
Equipment
Fishing equipment serves to boost your stats, increasing the chances of succeeding in fishing as well as decreasing the time needed. Wearing the Fisherman's Bucket Hat, Smock, and Waders together provides the player with a 15% stat buff, together with the Ocean's Embrace this rises to a 30% buff.

Fishing Stats
There are various stats that can be gained through levels and equipment that affect fishing.
Effective Fishing Level
Effective fishing level is the combination of the players fishing and mastery level and the fishing stats on equipment. It affects various secondary stats:
- Chance of finding and gathering from a node
- Rarity of resources
- Quantity of resources in a node
- Chance to preserve bait
Bait Preservation
Bait preservation comes from both effective fishing level and the enchantment of the same name which comes enchanted by default on the Fisherman's Bucket Hat. It determines the chance that a bait is used on an action and is capped at 50%.
Bait preservation is reduced by Deadliest Catch but cannot go lower than 0%.
Bait Power
Increases the chance and speed of finding nodes, and the size of nodes found. Chance is capped at 100% and speed is capped at 1 second.
Reel Power
Increases the chance and speed of gathering resources. Chance is capped at 100% and speed is capped at 1 second.
Bonus Rarity
Some nodes require a certain bonus rarity to start appearing. Rare resources require a rarity higher than the node. Nodes and resources have a cap where bonus rarity above will not provide additional drop frequency.
Bonus Rarity must be above the minimum rarity for resources to appear. Resources not listed here require no bonus rarity to collect.
