Thread: Patch 5.0 Notes

So, with most bait being removed and condensed into two types for ARR zones...

...that's going to make big fish a lot harder to acquire.

I feel like the new fishing skills are going to mitigate that somehow.

I'm not aware of ARR and HW Bait being removed. My understanding is that these new baits are being added AS options so that players can carry less bait around as a convenience. If a player's intent is to catch a specific fish only, then using the correct bait that will focus on their target fish and minimizes the amount of extraneous fish that could potentially be caught should still be a thing.
