How to get max durability for fishing. Get over 100k casts from a Grandpa Cron's Fishing Rod: kzbin.info/www/bejne/noXKmpR8iphnjbc As a lot of comments have said, don't bother with using a float for AFK fishing.

[@lazygamingjd]

Thanks for this guide, Pansy! I have a question and I hope you or someone could answer: Does the character who caught the fishes need to be the one to travel to a distant location to get the max profit or can you station an alt character in LOML? Can you transfer the fish bowl to an alt character if it contains any fish?

[@imPansy]

No you can’t transfer the fishbowl if it has fish. You’ll have to move the character which caught the fish

[@lazygamingjd]

@@imPansy Thank you! :)

[@lloydrasmussen554]

If you are trying to level your fishing, you may want to wear a Silver Embroidered Fishing coat, it gives experience instead of mastery. Also there are several fishing rods on the Central Market that do different things. Balenos Fishing Rod will reduce Autofishing time. To level your trading, fish in Alta Nova and sell in Grana, then fish in Grana and sell in Alta Nova. Easiest travel without spending silver on the Magnus.

[@imPansy]

This is a great guide! I just got back into playing after a long break and going to give this a try. I had a question for the artifacts (I got 2 life skill mastery), and all 4 light stones. Should I wait to obtain the fishing exp artifact instead and infuse the stones into a mastery one and a fishing one, or it wont make a big difference? I want to make sure I get the right ones before infusing and risking losing silver over it.

Naw it doesnt make a big difference. Just a matter of a little bit more exp and little more mastery

[@nekonochesire6023]

So I've been prepping to do that (unfortunately needs to redo the Serendia and Calpheon main quests to do Magnus), and I came back to the vid to see where which path you used to connect nodes but it looks like they're not, which makes me wonder if it changed from before where you only get 30% if nodes aren't connected ? Second question, shouldn't the price differ depending on the number of minimum nodes it needs to go through, rather than the actual distance ? Or is it that selling up there takes us to the maximum selling price by default ?

[@imPansy]

They removed the requirement where you needed to have the nodes connected. It's based on distance now from where you acquired the trade item (fish). So catching from like Tigris Island or Valencia Sea, will get you 150% in LOML trade vendors like in Yunkoj or Bukpo

[@TRGaming0_0]

question who has much more profit - imperial fishing or distant fishing?

[@marcbaston503]

Imperial is best if you are still getting blues and greens, especially when you are leveling. If you are not yet prof fishing, you cannot set the auto discard to blues, so you are still gonna get greens and blues and in this case, you can do imperials on them, then do normal distant fishing on yellow/reds you get. Some yellows cant be turned in to imperial, but some do. The main issue of imperial fishing is it's only limited turn-ins every 3 hours but it's always 250% in value. There are only selected fish that can also be imperialed as well which can be limiting most of the time. Distance doesnt matter as well on Imperial Fishing, but it does matter if you care about Trade EXP. Distant Fishing is good especially that we can Magnus now to LOML which is typically the farthest locations if you are fishing in mainland which heavily increases distance bonus. Also, we can do bargaining which we can also leverage to increase more profits. Distant Fishing will also take ANY FISH and it's not limited and you dont need to wait for resets every 3 hours nor server hopping for imperial turn ins. You are encouraged to change servers for base % on trade managers (get at least 120% price) since they differ each time. If you are just exclusively fishing in Velia, you can try and check in Imperial Fishing NPC first (he is in front of Storage Keeper) then go to LOML on Yukjo/Bukpo for Distant Fishing turn-ins.

How to find an abundant fish spot while fishing at max depth in the sea? I tryed and tryed and only found exhausted

[@imPansy]

It's shared across the depths. On BDOlytics' map, I showed the fishing region. all the highlighted spots share the same resource amount across all channels in your region. I didn't go through showing every popular spot here because that'd make people congregate there and everything would be exhausted haha. I wanted to encourage folks to find their own spots but use mine as a baseline till you do.

i'm at the spot where you at and tried close spot but i never get exhausted fishing ressource all the time is it come from something i didn't understand ?

[@imPansy]

Sorry I may be misunderstanding, your spot is NOT exhausted? That's good right? You want it to be abundant. It depends on the number of players that are fishing in the same ocean zone. If there're a lot of players fishing, it'll get depleted down to exhausted. It's not impossible to fish there, it just takes longer to get fish hooked on your rod.
