Level 70 Fisher

[MrHades]

Should be able to hit level 70 fisher tonight. Never did any DoL or DoH stuff before and I just straight grinded to 70 without stopping in Idyllshire. What's the next step after hitting 70? Get tackleking set? Crafted hq 70 gear with melds is better than tackleking. Get that instead?

IMHO, the next thing would be collectables, for that you need to turn on your collector glove when fishing because you need to unlock Folklore books. These unlock more fishing locations for you.
Gear would also be a good choice but it is not essential until you have the books. As should be able to catch most regular fish with standard gear.

I suggest you go for the hq crafted set and then overmeld it.
The tackleking set requires too many yellow scrips not to mention that it's used only by fishers while the crafted set is for all doh classes plus i still haven't found a way to farm yellow scrips quickly.

To get folklore books you need 2,5k red scrips therefore i strongly recommend you unlock deliveries from Zhoe Aliapoh if you haven't done already. https://www.mooglemedia.com/custom-deliveries/

If you need money for the sets, I highly advise spearfishing for the following items.

Motley Beakfish
Ivory Sole
Spiny Lobster
