Big Fish and You - Patch 2.3

[ServerCollaps]

until I got my first olgoi I was able to achieve "Good things come to those who Bait: Thanalan IV"
more than 500 fish caught without an olgoi, but around 15 times the fish got away messages
while working on Thanalan V I already caught 7 titanic sawfish

fishing can be such a pain

I wonder what the conditions for the 2.4 big fish will be u.u

Ironworks Fishing Rod Fisher's Primary Tool Item Level: 80 / Equipment Level: 50
Rumor has that fishing enthusiast Biggs used the Garlond Ironworks crafting facilities afterhours to create this magitek-enhanced rod.

There's also several new pieces of body gear: Artisan's X / Forager's X for crafters/gatherers. Which are, according to the listed recipes, crafted using Mastercraft demimateria.

If they're meldable on top of that (which they likely are given they are crafted) I'm going to be distressed because that'll wring out my wallet enough as is. At least they are shared across classes (Unlike the new rod for Fisher/new offhands for everyone else)

According to another player, the Japanese notes have a little more information.

Go Big or Go Home IX - Title: Taikoubou
Go Big or Go Home X - Item: Ironworks Fishing Rod

Google translate says Taikoubou means angler

Taikoubou is the Japanese translation of the Chinese nickname for a scholar who loved fishing.
If you've played FFXI, you might be better acquainted with his proper Chinese name, a certain Lu Shang.
