Taelac.7036 Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 I'll probably fish when I'd otherwise be mindlessly flapping around the guild hall while I chat with people, at least some of the time. Outside of a collection or a need for Chef ingredients, I don't see myself prioritizing it over other kinds of gameplay. It'll be nice to have another possible activity for lazy socializing time, though. 10 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just wondering! ty. I might make the effort to get in on any money making to be had, but usually there are just so many more people, with way more time than I have, and I end up ignoring it outside of what I want. If the mechanics of the whole thing are interesting, like the way they did the mount system, then I might spend more time on it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quench.7091 Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 Depends on if a secret playable tengu race or another griffon mount is locked behind fishing. 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just a flesh wound.3589 Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 I usually do the Ley Line Anomaly. There’s generally some downtime while I wait so fishing might be a worthwhile activity. 5 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sylvyn.4750 Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 Not skipping anything for fishing unless they make it a means to a meaningful end, such as some really beneficial food effects, achievements that lead to a unique skin, ascended/legendary items, map/story completion, etc. I'm in the middle of grinding legendary armor, I don't have much idle time! 2 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tseison.4659 Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 Doesn't look interesting to me at all and don't see a point in it tbh. Also confused why they didn't add the option to solo fish on top of our Skimmers 🤷♂️ I'll perhaps give it a try just to say that I experienced it but that's about it. 8 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This got me thinking. Instead of waiting up by the Hylek Turrets for Tequatl, people will be down by the water, right where it lands. "There's something in the water!" Mad dash inland so as not to get landed on. ArenaNet, please make a fishing spot right behind Tequatl. It'll give me something to do back there as I endlessly try and fail to get the last achievement I need. 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HowlKamui.5120 Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 They implemented it very similarly to my favorite game with fishing which is Stardew Valley. If the gold per hour with fishing is decent and repeatable, I will probably drop everything for a while and just keep fishing 😅 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misterman.1530 Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 It just seems so time consuming. With a mini-game thrown in. Unless the rewards are huge, I can't see me partaking except to complete whatever is necessary for map completion. 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blocki.4931 Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 It looks a lot better than most people in chat thought. Personally, I love it. The fact they made them not disappear when you're not in/on them is what sold it for me. It's also fast enough to not replace the Skimmer AND the fact you're more easily able to jump in and out than it is to mount up has me very happy. I'm just going to enjoy doing it everywhere I go on the side. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Obtena.7952 Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 No one will stop doing anything to fish. It will just be part of a person's overall ranking for content they do, just like they do now. 3 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Purely on a gold per hour point of view (not taking into account achievement hunting) I would love it if it's around 15-30 gold per hour, depending on Fishing Party buff (so it's better to run it with a party). This is of course when ideal rotations are figured out. For reference, the best repeatable solo farm is Icebound Chests at around 30 gold per hour. 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kurrilino.2706 Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 I don't know what the OP means by what will i stop. I already beat the game and fishing finally gives me something to do beside the daily fractals 1 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish there was a counter to see how many circles I've ran; it has to be in the tens of thousands at least. But then again, running in a circle is a long-standing MMO tradition. 2 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You honestly feel that highly passive minigame is worthy of better gold than some of the more popular farms? 3 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Icebound chests are more passive than fishing yet it's among the best gold farm in the entire game. You just run up to a chest and hit it open.
