Fishing

From Sun Haven Wiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

Fish can be seen as two different size shadows in bodies of water. Fish spawns are decided by location and season; time of day and weather do not impact what types of fish spawn in the various areas. To catch fish the player will need a fishing rod and cast out their line towards the fish shadows in the water.

To cast a fishing rod, the player must hold down the LMB (left mouse button). The mouse cursor will indicate the direction in which the line will be cast (up, down, left, right). The meter that appears indicates how far the line will be cast. Releasing the LMB also releases the line.

Attached to the end of the line is the bobber. If a fish bites, the bobber may wiggle several times. To catch the fish, press the LMB when the bobber fully submerges with a louder sound indicator. This will begin the fishing mini game. The fish may escape at times, however once a fish is caught, the player holds it whilst displaying the information of the catch.

If the player hits the "sweet spot", which is an optional smaller target area, they will be rewarded with 30% bonus base fish experience. This bonus does not increase the flat Fishing EXP Bonus from skills.

Fish

Each region has their own list of fish that can be caught. View each regions' page to view catching details on the fish.

Equipment

Fishing Nets

Fishing nets can be purchased from Peter at his store on Sun Haven Beach or crafted at a Loom. There are two sizes, small and large, which catch different fish.

Item Description Sell price
Large Fishing Net.png Large Fishing Net Automatically catches fish in the river, ponds and beach of your farm. This net covers a lot of water, which means it's going to catch a lot of fish. 100 Coins.png
Small Fishing Net.png Small Fishing Net Automatically catches fish in the river, ponds and beach of your farm. Not the biggest, but it can still catch plenty of fish. 250 Coins.png

Fishing Bait

Fishing bait can be crafted by using worms and other craftables at a Composter, Mana Composter, & Monster Composter. Consuming a fishing bait adds fishing related buffs to the player.

Fishing Rods

Fishing rods are the main tool used in actively catching fish. The player is given a Basic Fishing Rod as part one of the first quests in the game. Most fishing rods give a specific benefit to the player, like increasing their fishing skill, reducing the difficulty of the fishing mini game, or adding gold to each fish caught.
