Beehive

2026-04-26T14:38:08Z

MAYLAN: /* Public Apiaries */ Added flowers, added hive noun for rooms with multiple bees.

<table><tr valign="top"><td>
'''Beehives''' are fixed scripted props that house bees, which produce honey and wax that can be gathered with an [[Apiculture Jar]]. Beehives can benefit from up to three flowers placed nearby, and their honey will match those flower types. A number of public beehives exist in [[#Public Apiaries|public apiaries]] in all towns and in the Rift. In addition, [[#Private Beehive|private beehives]] can be installed in a [[private property]]. Beehives have a 10 minute cooldown when harvested by an Apiculture Jar.

Beehives were introduced in 2026 alongside the Apiculture Jar. Certificates to install a private beehive are sold in the [[Rumor Woods]] shop [[RWShop:Vintage Visions|Vintage Visions]].

Private beehives are those placed in a [[private property]]. They can be added via certificate; all alterations should be done to the certificate before redeeming it and placing it in a property.

Private beehives allow the property owner to change out the default bee via a [[Bugs on Parade]] gem bee found anywhere. They also allow for the property owner to add up to three different flowers. Flowers added can be from either the foraging system or a [[Foraged Item Prop]], however flowers from a Foraged Item Prop will only ever produce "wildflower" honey. Flowers from the foraging system will produce honey related to the flower type.

==Additional Information==
===Beehive Appearance===
All beehives, both public and private, have a hard-coded line at the end that indicates what the bees in the hive look like as well as what flowers, up to three, are nearby. The flowers nearby determine what type of honey the hive produces.

The default setting for a beehive once placed looks like:
<pre{{log2}}>Honey bees move in lazy circuits between the conical hive and wildflowers flourishing nearby.

Public apiaries typically have a unique bee to the region as well as three flowers that grow in that realm. For example, the three hives in the Solhaven public apiary include:
<pre{{log2}}>Stub-winged royal lady bees move in lazy circuits between the driftwood beehouse and gorses, stalk of tuberoses, and heath asters flourishing nearby.

Russet and tawny mining bees move in lazy circuits between the top bar hive and blue robin flowers, white water crowfoots, and lady's smock blossoms flourishing nearby.

Dark-legged loosestrife bees move in lazy circuits between the marshgrass skep and pink clover blossoms, yellow clover blossoms, and moonlight cactus-blooms flourishing nearby.

Flowers listed determine the honey type. Only flowers from the foraging system produce honey that references the flower name. When using a flower taken from a [[Foraged Item Prop]] in a private beehive, the flower used will be visible however it will only ever produce "wildflower honey". Public beehives use foraging system flowers and will produce honey related to one of the hive's three flowers.
===Public Apiaries===
<section begin=hivelocations />Public apiaries containing beehives can be found in all towns plus the Rift. Each apiary has a unique assortment of flowers, local to the area, and as such, will result in different types of honey.

===Ambient Messages===
<pre{{log2}}>A gilt-striped honey bee plunges into a white gardenia, disappearing in the petals.

Gilt-striped honey bees cluster thickly at the cedar beehive's entrance, fanning their wings in practiced unison to cool the comb.

With a soft buzz, a gilt-striped honey bee alights on a yellow and pink wild rose.

A gilt-striped honey bee buries itself in a sprig of mournbloom, emerging coated with golden pollen.

The breeze shifts, carrying with it the thick sweetness of ripening honey.

A single royal lady bee buzzes past your ear before drifting away.

A lone royal lady bee hovers in place, its wings a blur before it darts back into an inverted conical hive emerging from beneath a mushroom cap.

Several stub-winged royal lady bees gather in a small cloud and circle one another in a dance.

A number of public beehives exist in [[#Public Apiaries|public apiaries]] in all towns and in the Rift. In addition, [[#Private Beehive|private beehives]] can be installed in a [[private property]]. Beehives have a 10 minute cooldown when harvested by an Apiculture Jar.

Beehives were introduced in 2026 alongside the Apiculture Jar. Certificates to install a private beehive are sold in the [[Rumor Woods]] shop [[RWShop:Vintage Visions|Vintage Visions]].

|itemsummary= 
Private beehives are those placed in a [[private property]]. They can be added via certificate; all alterations should be done to the certificate before redeeming it and placing it in a property.

Private beehives allow the property owner to change out the default bee via a [[Bugs on Parade]] gem bee found anywhere. They also allow for the property owner to add up to three different flowers. Flowers added can be from either the foraging system or a [[Foraged Item Prop]], however flowers from a Foraged Item Prop will only ever produce "wildflower" honey. Flowers from the foraging system will produce honey related to the flower type.

==Additional Information==
===Beehive Appearance===
All beehives, both public and private, have a hard-coded line at the end that indicates what the bees in the hive look like as well as what flowers, up to three, are nearby. The flowers nearby determine what type of honey the hive produces.

The default setting for a beehive once placed looks like:
<pre{{log2}}>Honey bees move in lazy circuits between the conical hive and wildflowers flourishing nearby.

Public apiaries typically have a unique bee to the region as well as three flowers that grow in that realm. For example, the three hives in the Solhaven public apiary include:
<pre{{log2}}>
Stub-winged royal lady bees move in lazy circuits between the driftwood beehouse and gorses, stalk of tuberoses, and heath asters flourishing nearby.

Russet and tawny mining bees move in lazy circuits between the top bar hive and blue robin flowers, white water crowfoots, and lady's smock blossoms flourishing nearby.

Dark-legged loosestrife bees move in lazy circuits between the marshgrass skep and pink clover blossoms, yellow clover blossoms, and moonlight cactus-blooms flourishing nearby.

Flowers listed determine the honey type. Only flowers from the foraging system produce honey that references the flower name. When using a flower taken from a [[Foraged Item Prop]] in a private beehive, the flower used will be visible however it will only ever produce "wildflower honey". Public beehives use foraging system flowers and will produce honey related to one of the hive's three flowers.
===Public Apiaries===
<section begin=hivelocations />Public apiaries containing beehives can be found in all towns plus the Rift. Each apiary has a unique assortment of flowers, local to the area, and as such, will result in different types of honey.

=== Where do I sign up?===

Ticketing will likely be handled via the play.net Box Office when available. Please see the [[#Ticketing|Ticketing]] section for more details.

===Who organizes SimuCon?===

Typically GameMasters from Gemstone IV and DragonRealms are the official organizers. However, many players pitch in to plan unofficial events or to offer support. All work is strictly volunteer, so please be sure to thank your organizer team!

===What is it like to attend a SimuCon?===

SimuCon is a gathering of players and GameMasters for Simutronics games, including Gemstone IV and DragonRealms. The convention includes several events, as listed in the [[#2025 Schedule|2025 Schedule]], that are planned by both players and staff. In-between events, attendees typically gather at conference tables similar to a large LAN party to play. Board games and other activities are frequently available as well.

===How many people attend SimuCon and when do they show up?===

SimuCon has experienced a growth spurt over the past three years or so. A current rough estimate would be 100 attendees (GS and DR combined) over the course of the weekend. The main convention days are Thursday through Sunday, although several people arrive on Wednesday and stay through Monday. The convention room is typically setup by Wednesday evening.

===What equipment should I bring? ===

Bring your laptop/computer so that you can play Gemstone during the convention. Internet access and power strips are typically provided. '''Note:''' It is not recommended that you leave your equipment unattended in the conference room.

===Will I need a car?===

Many attendees never leave the hotel. However if you are planning to explore St. Louis, a car is recommended as public transportation options are slim. Lyft and Uber are both operational in St. Louis and are ideal for single trips. For any excursions listed in the schedule, carpool options may be available. A shuttle may be available to and from your hotel for airport travel, but don't forget to bring cash for a tip!

===Is SimuCon family friendly?===

In general, yes. Some attendees do bring children but activities in the convention room may be of limited interest to them. Note the [[#Attractions|Attractions]] section listed below for additional kid-friendly activities available in St. Louis. Please expect to encounter explicit language and consumption of alcoholic beverages, which will increase in the late night hours.

===What is the weather typically like?===

Missouri is nicknamed "Misery" for its hot and humid summers. For a current local forecast, click here: https://www.ksdk.com/weather

===Do I need to bring food or beverages?===

Depending on funds available, basic snacks will be provided. You are generally on your own for meals and can purchase food at the grocery or restaurant options listed in the [[#Dining.2FEating|Dining/Eating]] section. SimuCon is strictly BYOB. Alcohol can be purchased in most grocery stores and gas stations in Missouri.

===What should I wear?===

SimuCon is casual attire unless the schedule for a specific event indicates otherwise. Some events may encourage costumes or themed attire.

=== Is there a pool?===

YES, pack your bathing suit! The Sheraton Westport Plaza has an indoor pool, and their sister property the Sheraton Westport Chalet has an outdoor pool. The Chalet's outdoor pool is very close and is a popular day time destination for attendees. All facilities at both hotels are available to any guest staying at either hotel. There is even a poolside bar with snacks and beverages (open Friday through Sunday), and towel service is available. It is recommended that you pack sunscreen ahead of time, because the hotel and nearby shops do not stock any. It is also recommended that you bring pool noodles, because pool noodles are wicked cool.

===What is it like to attend a SimuCon?===

SimuCon is a gathering of players and GameMasters for Simutronics games, including Gemstone IV and DragonRealms. The convention includes several events, as listed in the [[#2025 Schedule|2025 Schedule]], that are planned by both players and staff. In-between events, attendees typically gather at conference tables similar to a large LAN party to play. Board games and other activities are frequently available as well.

===Will I need a car?===

Many attendees never leave the hotel. However if you are planning to explore St. Louis, a car is recommended as public transportation options are slim. Lyft and Uber are both operational in St. Louis and are ideal for single trips. For any excursions listed in the schedule, carpool options may be available. A shuttle may be available to and from your hotel for airport travel, but don't forget to bring cash for a tip!

===Is SimuCon family friendly?===

In general, yes. Some attendees do bring children but activities in the convention room may be of limited interest to them. Note the [[#Attractions|Attractions]] section listed below for additional kid-friendly activities available in St. Louis. Please expect to encounter explicit language and consumption of alcoholic beverages, which will increase in the late night hours.

===What is the weather typically like?===

Missouri is nicknamed "Misery" for its hot and humid summers. For a current local forecast, click here: https://www.ksdk.com/weather

===Do I need to bring food or beverages?===

You are generally on your own for meals and can purchase food at the grocery or restaurant options listed in the [[#Dining.2FEating|Dining/Eating]] section. SimuCon is strictly BYOB. Alcohol can be purchased in most grocery stores and gas stations in Missouri.

===What should I wear?===

SimuCon is casual attire unless the schedule for a specific event indicates otherwise. Some events may encourage costumes or themed attire.

=== Is there a pool?===

YES, pack your bathing suit! The Sheraton Westport Plaza has an indoor pool, and their sister property the Sheraton Westport Chalet has an outdoor pool. The Chalet's outdoor pool is very close and is a popular day time destination for attendees. All facilities at both hotels are available to any guest staying at either hotel. There is even a poolside bar with snacks and beverages (open Friday through Sunday), and towel service is available. It is recommended that you pack sunscreen ahead of time, because the hotel and nearby shops do not stock any. It is also recommended that you bring pool noodles, because pool noodles are wicked cool.

==Frequently Asked Questions==
===How much does SimuCon cost?===
Attendance badges have previously cost $40 when purchased in advance. Tickets are available at the door, but will be more expensive. Please see the [[#Ticketing|Ticketing]] section for more details.

=== Where do I sign up?===

Ticketing will likely be handled via the play.net Box Office when available. Please see the [[#Ticketing|Ticketing]] section for more details.

===Who organizes SimuCon?===

Typically GameMasters from Gemstone IV and DragonRealms are the official organizers. However, many players pitch in to plan unofficial events or to offer support. All work is strictly volunteer, so please be sure to thank your organizer team!

===What is it like to attend a SimuCon?===

SimuCon is a gathering of players and GameMasters for Simutronics games, including Gemstone IV and DragonRealms. The convention includes several events, as listed in the [[#2025 Schedule|2025 Schedule]], that are planned by both players and staff. In-between events, attendees typically gather at conference tables similar to a large LAN party to play. Board games and other activities are frequently available as well.

===How many people attend SimuCon and when do they show up?===

SimuCon has experienced a growth spurt over the past three years or so. A current rough estimate would be 100 attendees (GS and DR combined) over the course of the weekend. The main convention days are Thursday through Sunday, although several people arrive on Wednesday and stay through Monday. The convention room is typically setup by Wednesday evening.

===What equipment should I bring? ===

Bring your laptop/computer so that you can play Gemstone during the convention. Internet access and power strips are typically provided. '''Note:''' It is not recommended that you leave your equipment unattended in the conference room.

===Will I need a car?===

Many attendees never leave the hotel. However if you are planning to explore St. Louis, a car is recommended as public transportation options are slim. Lyft and Uber are both operational in St. Louis and are ideal for single trips. For any excursions listed in the schedule, carpool options may be available. A shuttle may be available to and from your hotel for airport travel, but don't forget to bring cash for a tip!

===Is SimuCon family friendly?===

In general, yes. Some attendees do bring children but activities in the convention room may be of limited interest to them. Note the [[#Attractions|Attractions]] section listed below for additional kid-friendly activities available in St. Louis. Please expect to encounter explicit language and consumption of alcoholic beverages, which will increase in the late night hours.

===What is the weather typically like?===

Missouri is nicknamed "Misery" for its hot and humid summers. For a current local forecast, click here: https://www.ksdk.com/weather

===Do I need to bring food or beverages?===

Depending on funds available, basic snacks will be provided. You are generally on your own for meals and can purchase food at the grocery or restaurant options listed in the [[#Dining.2FEating|Dining/Eating]] section. SimuCon is strictly BYOB. Alcohol can be purchased in most grocery stores and gas stations in Missouri.

===What should I wear?===

SimuCon is casual attire unless the schedule for a specific event indicates otherwise. Some events may encourage costumes or themed attire.

=== Is there a pool?===

YES, pack your bathing suit! The Sheraton Westport Plaza has an indoor pool, and their sister property the Sheraton Westport Chalet has an outdoor pool. The Chalet's outdoor pool is very close and is a popular day time destination for attendees. All facilities at both hotels are available to any guest staying at either hotel. There is even a poolside bar with snacks and beverages (open Friday through Sunday), and towel service is available. It is recommended that you pack sunscreen ahead of time, because the hotel and nearby shops do not stock any. It is also recommended that you bring pool noodles, because pool noodles are wicked cool.

While the host hotel may very, it is usually held at one of the many convention spaces at or near the Westport Plaza.

===What is it like to attend a SimuCon?===

SimuCon is a gathering of players and GameMasters for Simutronics games, including Gemstone IV and DragonRealms. The convention includes several events, as listed in the [[#2025 Schedule|2025 Schedule]], that are planned by both players and staff.

===Will I need a car?===

Many attendees never leave the hotel. However if you are planning to explore St. Louis, a car is recommended as public transportation options are slim. Lyft and Uber are both operational in St. Louis and are ideal for single trips. For any excursions listed in the schedule, carpool options may be available. A shuttle may be available to and from your hotel for airport travel, but don't forget to bring cash for a tip!

In general, yes. Some attendees do bring children but activities in the convention room may be of limited interest to them. Note the [[#Attractions|Attractions]] section listed below for additional kid-friendly activities available in St. Louis. Please expect to encounter explicit language and consumption of alcoholic beverages, which will increase in the late night hours.

===What is the weather typically like?===

Missouri is nicknamed "Misery" for its hot and humid summers. For a current local forecast, click here: https://www.ksdk.com/weather

===Do I need to bring food or beverages?===

Alcohol can be purchased in most grocery stores and gas stations in Missouri.

===What should I wear?===

SimuCon is casual attire unless the schedule for a specific event indicates otherwise. Some events may encourage costumes or themed attire.

=== Is there a pool?===

YES, pack your bathing suit! The Sheraton Westport Plaza has an indoor pool, and their sister property the Sheraton Westport Chalet has an outdoor pool. The Chalet's outdoor pool is very close and is a popular day time destination for attendees. All facilities at both hotels are available to any guest staying at either hotel. There is even a poolside bar with snacks and beverages (open Friday through Sunday), and towel service is available. It is recommended that you pack sunscreen ahead of time, because the hotel and nearby shops do not stock any. It is also recommended that you bring pool noodles, because pool noodles are wicked cool.

With that in mind the Manor strives to always bring fun events to the town of Solhaven, as well as supporting other groups. The Manor holds regular [[#House Hunts|House Hunts]], helps organize community events, and hosts three festivals each year - [[#Winternights|Winternights]], the [[#Solhaven Grand Art Exhibit|Solhaven Grand Art Exhibit]], and the [[#Seafarer's Festival|Seafarer's Festival]].

==About Cairnfang Manor==
====History====
Founded in 2003, Cairnfang Manor was one of the original Player Hall Organizations. It transitioned to a Meeting Hall Organization in 2007 alongside the other PROs. On April 3, 2011, Cairnfang Manor became the newest member of the Cooperative Houses of Elanthia.
====Statement of Purpose====
As our pledge reminds us, our mission is three fold. Unhindered thinking reflects the ability to think clearly and act without prejudice of race, religious affiliation, or profession. Our hands to the community, indicates the work we do to make Solhaven a place where both the young and the aged are served to make life better for all. Our spirits to greater loyalty means we do everything within our power to promote our beloved Solhaven for the good of all, not just the individual or a certain group. We use our minds, talents, and hearts towards a better Solhaven.

<b>[[/Charter|Cairnfang Manor Charter and By-Laws]]</b>
====Symbols====
:<b>Flag: a Cairnfang Manor banner</b>
Framed by long brilliant peacock feathers is a billowing silk banner emblazoned with a royal blue star and an opalescent flame resting in an open hand. As light catches the material of the flame, it reflects a myriad of colors. The words Intellect, Flame, and Spirit are stitched on three of the sides. Carefully stitched below the star in the most eye-catching thread and in flowing script are the words, "Cairnfang Manor."

:<b>Pin: a golden gemstone-set triad</b>
Cut into the image of an open hand is a sparkling diamond, its palm inlaid with a fiery ruby and scribed with the word, "Flame." Beside it is a sapphire shard in the shape of a slender banner inlaid with a silver star and the word, "Intellect." The final gem of this triad is a vibrant peacock feather cut from a multi-hued stone set with an emerald eye. Gold foil fills the word, "Spirit" etched along the length of the shaft. Each of the carved gems is secured with thin golden bands to a wide metal pin.
====Meetings====
Cairnfang Manor's monthly meeting is held on the second Restday of every month at 8pm EST. The meetings are held in the Cairnfang Manor Meeting Room. Monthly meetings are open to the public; non-members interested in attending may request an escort from a current member or via the Realm ESP channel while in Solhaven.
====How to Join====
Individuals interested in joining Cairnfang Manor may do by first attending meetings or other events held by the Manor so that they may become acquainted with the current members and officers of the Manor. After doing so, the interested individual must find a current member of the Manor willing to sponsor their membership. Once a sponsor has been found, the interested party must contact the Chairwoman (cairnfangmanor@gmail.com) to officially request membership. In order to join, the following additional requirements must be met:
# The interested character must be at least level 10.
# The interested character must be able to pay 25,000 silvers in dues.
# The interested character must agree to the [[/Charter|Manor By-Laws]]

==Events==
Cairnfang Manor hosts three festivals each year. Songie, who was instrumental in founding Cairnfang Manor, hosted several events in Solhaven shortly after it opened up at the end of 1998. Some of those events are the foundation of current Cairnfang Manor festivals and traditions.

The first Snowball was hosted by Songie just after Solhaven opened up its trade routes to Wehnimer's Landing at the end of 5098, in the winter of early 5099. It became an annual tradition in Solhaven, and eventually Cairnfang Manor expanded beyond it to what is now [[#Winternights|Winternights]] in 5112. Winternights celebrates the community of Solhaven and invites all Solhaven organizations to participate.

The first [[#Solhaven Grand Art Exhibit|Solhaven Grand Art Exhibit]] was also hosted by Songie in late 5100, under the name of the Solhaven Academy of Art Grande Exhibit. Several years later, Cairnfang Manor resurrected the event under its new name, the Solhaven Grand Art Exhibit, and has been its formal host since. In 5119, the first additional workshop was introduced to the Art Exhibit, expanding it beyond the central judging event. The Grand Art Exhibit partners with a wide variety organizations that are willing to focus on the visual arts.

The first [[#Seafarer's Festival|Seafarer's Festival]] was hosted by Cairnfang Manor in 5103, shortly after it was officially recognized as an organization. As the Manor's flagship festival, Cairnfang Manor takes the lead on events during it while partnering with other organizations that have ties to the seafaring community.

===House Hunts===
On the third Restday (Sunday) of every month, Cairnfang Manor organizes a monthly hunt for house members and non-members alike. The hunt begins in North Market at 10pm EST, after which the location and target of the hunt will be chosen based on the skill level of that month's attendees. Spells and bounty tasks are shared among those attending.

==Winternights==
Shortly after the opening of the public trade route between [[Wehnimer's Landing]] and Solhaven in 5098, Cairnfang Founder Lady Songee Fillee hosted the first annual Snowball. This event continued every year until 5112 when Cairnfang Manor extended the festivities into the annual Winternights. Every year, organizations local to Solhaven are invited to take part in the mid-winter festivities by hosting games and events, concluding with the traditional Snowball and occasionally a snowball fight. Escorts will be provided to all events from Solhaven's North Market for those unfamiliar with the city.

==Solhaven Grand Art Exhibit==
The 2026 Solhaven Grand Art Exhibit will run May 6 through May 12.

The first Solhaven Grand Art Exhibit was held in 5100 by the Lady Songie Fillee. The event was intended to celebrate art as well as the community of Solhaven, which had recently reopened trade with the northern frontier. Songie later established Cairnfang Manor and was its first Chairwoman, spearheading efforts to foster the rapidly growing community by her own actions. Cairnfang Manor gladly continues this now-annual tradition of the Solhaven Grand Art Exhibit, showcasing works from artists across Elanthia while partnering with other organizations to run workshop events throughout the weeklong exhibit.

The theme of this year's Solhaven Grand Art Exhibit is yet to be announced!

====Submission Information====
Paintings, drawings, sculptures, and any other physical artwork are acceptable. (Poetry, writing, performances, etc. should be saved for other performance-based events.) The pieces submitted will be judged upon their subject matter, creativity, overall presentation, and relevancy to the Exhibit's theme, so choose something that is of interest to you and give it your all! While subject matter lies in the hands of the creator, we ask that submissions be suitable for viewing by audiences of mixed ages.

All artwork must be submitted in a manner that follows standard {{boldmono|ALTER}} guidelines: 15/15/15 to describe the piece (i.e. a carved,linden-framed,painting), plus a show description for the artwork being displayed taking up no more than 511 characters, including punctuation and double spaces between sentences. An additional long description for the artwork is optional and should be kept fairly short if included. This will ensure all items follow a standard pattern and make for ease in displaying them. In addition, please include the full name of the artist submitting the work as well as a title, if it has one; the artist's name and title do NOT need to be part of the artwork's show description.

Any artwork that does not follow these rules will not be displayed. Some artwork may have minor changes prior to display per QC. See [https://www.sphericalowl.com/gs/alterations.html Owly's Super Useful GemStoneIV Alteration Template] for formatting guidance. Artwork may be preserved as part of Cairnfang Manor's archives on the wiki.

'''Submission Example:'''
<pre{{log2}}>
a linden-framed,charcoal,portrait
Perfectly shaped linden blossoms have been etched into a light-toned frame surrounding a simple group portrait. A small scene of a group of adventures standing by a linden tree has been lovingly rendered in charcoal on smooth paper. The design of the sketch is rather crude and rough by most standards, however certain details of the group are meticulously rendered. It is clear that they are of different races, ages, and come from many walks of life.

All pieces of artwork should be submitted to cairnfangmanor@gmail.com by no later than end of day on '''Friday, March 21, 2025'''. When submitting your piece, please make sure the subject mentions Art Exhibit, that you list the name of the artist submitting the piece, the title of the piece, and the full text description of the artwork. Multiple submissions by a single person (character OR player) are not allowed. Any questions can be sent to the same email address.

Artwork will go on display in Solhaven starting with the Exhibit's Opening Ceremony event and lasting for a full week. Winners will be announced at the Exhibit's Best in Show Awards event. Prizes are awarded to the Best in Show, Second Place, and Third Place entries.

====Schedule====
5126 marks the 22nd Solhaven Grand Art Exhibit!

Fishing

2025-12-16T14:21:20Z

MAYLAN: /* Locations */ Clarified that Glarstim Cavern is not a fishing hole, added Stormpeak Region spot per Naamit on discord.

{{TOCright}}
'''Fishing''' is a popular pastime in [[Elanthia]]. By using certain [[fishing equipment]] - at minimum, a fishing rod with line and a lure attached - in a designated fishing area, anyone can catch fish of all sizes.

The fishing system was updated in December, 2025, by GM Auchand with the "Artisan Fishing System" overhaul. This completely replaced the original fishing system. Instead of relying on luck and stats, fishing instead rewards use of the system by awarding ranks, similar to [[artisan skill]]s. However, it is ''not'' a formal artisan skill and does not count against them when learning how to fish. This update left in place all fishing equipment, which remains fully functional with this new fishing system.

The original [[/Legacy fishing system|legacy fishing system]] utilized only items as part of the fishing experience, with what was described as a very complex back end system designed to mimic real world fishing that took into account time of day and the season with regard to when fish were more likely to bite. It relied heavily on the [[strength]] stat for fishing success as well as a great deal of luck.

==Equipment==
{{main|Fishing equipment}}
The cost of [[fishing equipment]] varies depending on material, design, quality, and quantity. See the [[:Category: Fishing shops|Fishing Shops category]] for inventory.

;[[Fishing equipment#Fishing Rod|Fishing Rod]]
The fishing rod is used as the basis for fishing. A fishing rod needs, at minimum, some [[#Line|line]] attached as well as a [[#Lure|lure]] of some type. Without a [[#Sinker|sinker]], the line can be cast out at just the surface level. Adding a sinker will allow the line to be cast at middle depth or bottom depth, depending on the sinker weight. Attached lures and sinkers can be removed via {{boldmono|GET}}.

While not shown in the analyze, a rod with a line attached can be {{boldmono|CUT}} to remove an already-attached line. Removing a line by this method destroys the line on the rod but also allows for it to be replaced if it has been damaged via use.

All fishing rods are created equal. {{boldmono|[[Verb:RAISE|RAISE]]}} (far), {{boldmono|[[Verb:WAVE|WAVE]]}} (medium distance), or {{boldmono|[[Verb:PUSH|PUSH]]}} (very close) the rod to cast at different lengths. {{boldmono|[[Verb:PULL|PULL]]}} the rod to reel it in. Alternatively, just use the {{boldmono|[[Verb:FISHING|FISH]]}} command for it all.

;[[Fishing equipment#Line|Line]]
A line is required to use a fishing rod. Lines come in the form of a string, line, or wire that is coiled up, and a portion can be cut off of the entire spool via {{boldmono|PULL}}. Once removed from the spool, the cut line can be added to a fishing rod via {{boldmono|PUT}}. Lines can come in different strengths, which can be identified via {{boldmono|LOOK}}. Lines purchased at pay events such as [[Ebon Gate]] are generally the strongest available.

As line is used while attached to a [[#Fishing Rod|fishing rod]], its condition degrades. Weaker lines degrade faster than stronger lines. Using {{boldmono|LOOK ROD}} will indicate the condition of the line. Line condition starts at "excellent condition" then goes to "decent condition", then "showing signs of wear", and finally "frayed and in danger of snapping soon" when it is nearing its end.

More expensive fishing lines last longer. When your line breaks, any lure and sinker that are attached to it are lost.

;[[Fishing equipment#Lure|Lures]]
A lure is required to use a fishing rod. It can be added to a fishing rod via {{boldmono|PUT}}. Lures may be general and work for all depths of fishing, or they may be set up to work best at a certain depth, such as on the surface. Using {{boldmono|LOOK}} with a lure will identify what depths it works best at as well as the bonus it provides for each depth.

The three basic depths for lures are for fishing on the surface, at middle depth, or on the bottom.

;[[Fishing equipment#Sinker|Sinkers]]
A sinker is an optional item to use on a fishing rod. It can be added to a fishing rod via {{boldmono|PUT}}. A sinker will cause the cast line to sink to a lower depth, either middle depth or to the bottom, depending on the sinker's weight. Using either {{boldmono|LOOK}} or {{boldmono|WEIGH}} with a sinker will identify how far it will cause a line's hook to sink in a body of water - either to the middle depth or to the bottom.

No sinker is needed for surface fishing.

;Additional Equipment
Special [[rhimar]]-lined '''creels''' and chests preserve caught fish. Without a creel or preserving chest, the fish can go bad or escape.

The '''[[Super-Fish-All Tackle Box]]''' is a multi-purpose container that serves as an "-inator" to store lures, weights, and lines, plus, at higher unlocks, serve as a rhimar-lined creel to weightlessly preserve caught live fish.

The '''[[Bugs 2 Lure Jig]]''' allows for the crafting of fishing lures from fishing line (of any quality) and gemstone bugs caught with a [[Bugs on Parade Bug Jar]].

==Fishing Shops==
Fishing shops are located in a number of towns across Elanthia. In addition to these permanent town shops, both standard and specialty fishing gear is sometimes sold at [[festival]]s and [[pay event]]s.

==How to Fish==
With the December, 2025, Artisan Fishing System overhaul, fishing is now completely updated to no longer rely on luck and the [[strength]] stat but instead on earned fishing skill ranks. While referred to as the Artisan Fishing System, it is '''not''' part of the [[Artisan skill|Artisan Skill]] system and will not count towards max Artisan Skill ranks. Additionally, fishing does not provide [[EXPERIENCE|EXP]]. Fishing uses fishing skill levels as the basis for its skill check, with 100 being the maximum fishing skill level.

==={{boldmono|FISH}} Command===
{{main|Verb:FISHING}}
Most fishing related actions use the {{boldmono|FISH}} verb. Some items, such as the [[Fishing equipment#Fishing Rod|fishing rod]], emulate the {{boldmono|FISH}} command with verb traps tied to manipulating the fishing rod itself.

The main actions include {{boldmono|FISH CAST {distance}}} to cast the line and {{boldmono|FISH REEL}} to try to reel it back in. Meanwhile, {{boldmono|FISH SENSE}} can identify if your current location is a fishing spot.

In addition, {{boldmono|FISH PERKS}} allows you to view and manage current [[#Fishing Perks|fising perks]] while {{boldmono|FISH STATUS}} lets you view your current fishing level as well as any active fishing perks.

Lastly, {{boldmono|FISH TOTAL}} is a running tally of all of your catches (and misses). This includes all fish caught via the [[/Legacy fishing system|legacy fishing system]] as part of the total. The count of [[#Fishing Line|lines snapped]] is new as of the fishing system overhaul.

=== The Basics ===
Before you can begin fishing, you will first need to locate a fishing hole and bring your fishing equipment. You can determine whether or not you are in a fishing area via {{boldmono|FISH SENSE}}. See the [[#Locations|locations table]] for a list of known fishing areas. Fishing holes respond to fishing pressure and, if too many fish are caught in too short of a time, you will not be able to catch fish there again until some time has passed and the fish have recovered.

At minimum, a [[Fishing equipment#Fishing Rod|fishing rod]] equipped with both [[Fishing equipment#Line|line]] and a [[Fishing equipment#Lure|lure]] is needed to fish while in a fishing area. A [[Fishing equipment#sinker|sinker]] is an optional attachment that can allow you to fish at different depths other than just the water's surface.

{{boldmono|LOOKing}} at lures before attaching them to a rod will indicate the numerical bonus for each depth, with +16 being the highest bonus. Once attached, you can {{boldmono|LOOK ROD}} to see everything attached, including their benefits and bonuses. Lures and sinkers can be removed from a rod with {{boldmono|GET}}. A fishing line can be removed from the rod with {{boldmono|CUT}}, however this will destroy the line in the process.

Once you have all of your equipment in hand and are at a proper fishing spot, use the {{boldmono|[[Verb:FISHING|FISH]]}} verb to begin fishing. Catching fish, reeling, and filleting fish can increase your fishing skill level. Fish now appear with far greater frequency compared to legacy fishing, but the reeling process may last much longer, sometimes ten minutes or more. Fishing allows players to potentially catch fish in the 200-300lb range with frequency. If done correctly, line snaps should be much rarer than prior to the fishing system overhaul.

=== Casting ===
To start, hold your fishing rod - with attached line and lure - in one hand and {{boldmono|FISH CAST {distance}}} while in a fishing area.

When casting a line, you can select {{boldmono|FISH CAST NEAR}}, {{boldmono|MIDDLE}}, or {{boldmono|FAR}}. This is a risk/reward system with the further distances being more difficult to reel but potentially more rewarding with larger or rarer fish. It is recommended to select {{boldmono|NEAR}} until several fishing skill level ranks are earned.

Using a [[Fishing equipment#Fishing Rod|fishing rod]]'s verb traps for {{boldmono|PUSH}} (near), {{boldmono|WAVE}} (middle), and {{boldmono|RAISE}} (far) when manipulating the fishing rod emulate the use of {{boldmono|FISH CAST {distance}}}. They can be used interchangeably with the {{boldmono|FISH}} command.

=== Hooking a Fish ===
Once a line is cast, frequent rolls are made to attract and hook a fish. Using the correct type of lure at the correct depth will provide a bonus to a successful hook. You will know when you catch a fish!

<pre{{log2}}>You feel a brief jerk on your line before it begins to reel out wildly. You manage to yank your black fishing rod back to set the hook. The rod bends and its tip dips as the catch on your line weaves back and forth in a frantic effort to escape!</pre>

=== Reeling ===
Once a line has been cast out, it can be brought in via {{boldmono|FISH REEL}}. (Using {{boldmono|PULL ROD}} with a fishing rod emulates this command.) If no fish is on the line, it can be reeled in very quickly. However, if a fish is hooked on the line, it will fight the reeling process.

When reeling a hooked fish, a roll is made to reel the fish closer (success = rolls 100 or higher), and the fish makes a roll to try and swim further away. Success on a reel attempt means that you will draw the fish in closer. Failure means the line will stay where it is. If the fish succeeds in its own roll, then the line will go out further away from you, up until it reaches its maximum length. The goal is to reduce the distance to zero before the line snaps.

'''Reeling success factors''' contributing to roll success include:
* Fishing skill level
* Size of fish (with larger fish being more difficult to reel in)
* Some fishing perks when activated
* Distance from shore or dock: since the goal is to reduce the distance to zero, casting line to further distances will be more difficult.

The strength stat is ''no longer'' a factor in reeling success.

=== Line Condition ===
[[Fishing equipment#Line|Fishing line]] has both a '''quality''' and a '''condition'''. The quality of a line determines how quickly it degrades, with higher quality lines degrading at a slower rate than lower quality lines. The condition of the line is how much wear and tear it has endured and, ultimately, an indicator of when it might snap.

Condition is of the utmost importance while actively fishing. Fishing line condition degrades with use, and it is recommended to {{boldmono|LOOK ROD}} before each cast. This will show you the current condition of your fishing line. Fishing line will degrade in the following stages: Excellent - Decent - Showing signs of use - Frayed and in danger of snapping soon. Once the line has degraded, use {{boldmono|CUT MY ROD}} to remove the current line and then replace it with a new line. Note that cutting a rod with a lure and weight on the line will deposit these items into the [[Inventory|alongside]] inventory slot.

Fishing lines are sold in various quality levels. {{boldmono|LOOK}} at fishing line to determine its quality levels, which include:
* Exceptionally Strong
* Quite sturdy and strong
* Decently strong

It is recommended to only use the strongest quality line available, as it will degrade much slower thus providing a higher chance of a successful catch. Exceptional quality fishing line is available at [[Flimgrimy's Fishing Finds]] in [[Mist Harbor]] in the form of '''a spool of thin silver wire'''.

If a line snaps while a fish is still hooked and before it has been reeled in completely, anything attached to the rod - line, lure, and sinker - will be '''lost''' in the process.

=== Filleting Fish ===
Fish can be filleted using {{boldmono|CUT MY <FISH> WITH MY <WEAPON>}}, but a skill check is required to produce a successful fillet. Factors impacting fillet success include:
* Fishing skill level
* Weapon type, with a dagger style weapon increasing success.
* Weapon description: the KNIFE noun and FILLET adjectives provide a bonus.
* Weapon enchant level provides a bonus, with a 10x enchant providing the greatest bonus.
Therefore, a 10x dagger style weapon with the description of "fillet knife" will provide the greatest bonus.

Fish fillets can then be cooked over a suitable fire or used as an ingredient in the various [[:Category:Cooking system|cooking]] craft systems. See the [[#Locations|locations table]] for information on the locations of cooking fires.

=== Fishing Perks ===
Fishing perks are granted as skill level increases. Perks are available under the {{boldmono|[[Verb:FISHING|FISH PERK]]}} verb and include:
# Fishbane: Fish stamina falls faster when pulling in a line or struggling against a fish.
# Reel Expertise: Pulling in a line or struggling against a fish strains your fishing line less.
# Angler's Eye: You will see additional information when using FISH SENSE.
# Lucky Lure: You have an increased chance to find higher quality fish.
# Goliath Seeker: Your catches have an increased chance to be heavier.
# Deft Knife: You have an increased chance to successfully fillet fish.

Activating a fishing perk is done via {{boldmono|FISH PERK ACTIVATE {x} {y}}}, with {x} representing the perk number from the above list and {y} representing an available fishing perk slot. One perk slot is awarded at fishing level 10, with an additional perk slot awarded at level 25.

Fishing

2025-12-13T15:57:06Z

MAYLAN: /* Locations */ Added Teras Isle fishing hole per Yunni's request on Discord.

{{TOCright}}
'''Fishing''' is a popular pastime in [[Elanthia]]. By using certain [[fishing equipment]] - at minimum, a fishing rod with line and a lure attached - in a designated fishing area, anyone can catch fish of all sizes.

The fishing system was updated in December, 2025, by GM Auchand with the "Artisan Fishing System" overhaul. This completely replaced the original fishing system. Instead of relying on luck and stats, fishing instead rewards use of the system by awarding ranks, similar to [[artisan skill]]s. However, it is ''not'' a formal artisan skill and does not count against them when learning how to fish. This update left in place all fishing equipment, which remains fully functional with this new fishing system.

The original [[/Legacy fishing system|legacy fishing system]] utilized only items as part of the fishing experience, with what was described as a very complex back end system designed to mimic real world fishing that took into account time of day and the season with regard to when fish were more likely to bite. It relied heavily on the [[strength]] stat for fishing success as well as a great deal of luck.

==Equipment==
{{main|Fishing equipment}}
The cost of [[fishing equipment]] varies depending on material, design, quality, and quantity. See the [[:Category: Fishing shops|Fishing Shops category]] for inventory.

;[[Fishing equipment#Fishing Rod|Fishing Rod]]
The fishing rod is used as the basis for fishing. A fishing rod needs, at minimum, some [[#Line|line]] attached as well as a [[#Lure|lure]] of some type. Without a [[#Sinker|sinker]], the line can be cast out at just the surface level. Adding a sinker will allow the line to be cast at middle depth or bottom depth, depending on the sinker weight. Attached lures and sinkers can be removed via {{boldmono|GET}}.

While not shown in the analyze, a rod with a line attached can be {{boldmono|CUT}} to remove an already-attached line. Removing a line by this method destroys the line on the rod but also allows for it to be replaced if it has been damaged via use.

All fishing rods are created equal. {{boldmono|[[Verb:RAISE|RAISE]]}} (far), {{boldmono|[[Verb:WAVE|WAVE]]}} (medium distance), or {{boldmono|[[Verb:PUSH|PUSH]]}} (very close) the rod to cast at different lengths. {{boldmono|[[Verb:PULL|PULL]]}} the rod to reel it in. Alternatively, just use the {{boldmono|[[Verb:FISHING|FISH]]}} command for it all.

;[[Fishing equipment#Line|Line]]
A line is required to use a fishing rod. Lines come in the form of a string, line, or wire that is coiled up, and a portion can be cut off of the entire spool via {{boldmono|PULL}}. Once removed from the spool, the cut line can be added to a fishing rod via {{boldmono|PUT}}. Lines can come in different strengths, which can be identified via {{boldmono|LOOK}}. Lines purchased at pay events such as [[Ebon Gate]] are generally the strongest available.

As line is used while attached to a [[#Fishing Rod|fishing rod]], its condition degrades. Weaker lines degrade faster than stronger lines. Using {{boldmono|LOOK ROD}} will indicate the condition of the line. Line condition starts at "excellent condition" then goes to "decent condition", then "showing signs of wear", and finally "frayed and in danger of snapping soon" when it is nearing its end.

More expensive fishing lines last longer. When your line breaks, any lure and sinker that are attached to it are lost.

;[[Fishing equipment#Lure|Lures]]
A lure is required to use a fishing rod. It can be added to a fishing rod via {{boldmono|PUT}}. Lures may be general and work for all depths of fishing, or they may be set up to work best at a certain depth, such as on the surface. Using {{boldmono|LOOK}} with a lure will identify what depths it works best at as well as the bonus it provides for each depth.

The three basic depths for lures are for fishing on the surface, at middle depth, or on the bottom.

;[[Fishing equipment#Sinker|Sinkers]]
A sinker is an optional item to use on a fishing rod. It can be added to a fishing rod via {{boldmono|PUT}}. A sinker will cause the cast line to sink to a lower depth, either middle depth or to the bottom, depending on the sinker's weight. Using either {{boldmono|LOOK}} or {{boldmono|WEIGH}} with a sinker will identify how far it will cause a line's hook to sink in a body of water - either to the middle depth or to the bottom.

No sinker is needed for surface fishing.

;Additional Equipment
Special [[rhimar]]-lined '''creels''' and chests preserve caught fish. Without a creel or preserving chest, the fish can go bad or escape.

The '''[[Super-Fish-All Tackle Box]]''' is a multi-purpose container that serves as an "-inator" to store lures, weights, and lines, plus, at higher unlocks, serve as a rhimar-lined creel to weightlessly preserve caught live fish.

The '''[[Bugs 2 Lure Jig]]''' allows for the crafting of fishing lures from fishing line (of any quality) and gemstone bugs caught with a [[Bugs on Parade Bug Jar]].

==Fishing Shops==
Fishing shops are located in a number of towns across Elanthia. In addition to these permanent town shops, both standard and specialty fishing gear is sometimes sold at [[festival]]s and [[pay event]]s.

==How to Fish==
With the December, 2025, Artisan Fishing System overhaul, fishing is now completely updated to no longer rely on luck and the [[strength]] stat but instead on earned fishing skill ranks. While referred to as the Artisan Fishing System, it is '''not''' part of the [[Artisan skill|Artisan Skill]] system and will not count towards max Artisan Skill ranks. Additionally, fishing does not provide [[EXPERIENCE|EXP]]. Fishing uses fishing skill levels as the basis for its skill check, with 100 being the maximum fishing skill level.

==={{boldmono|FISH}} Command===
{{main|Verb:FISHING}}
Most fishing related actions use the {{boldmono|FISH}} verb. Some items, such as the [[Fishing equipment#Fishing Rod|fishing rod]], emulate the {{boldmono|FISH}} command with verb traps tied to manipulating the fishing rod itself.

The main actions include {{boldmono|FISH CAST {distance}}} to cast the line and {{boldmono|FISH REEL}} to try to reel it back in. Meanwhile, {{boldmono|FISH SENSE}} can identify if your current location is a fishing spot.

In addition, {{boldmono|FISH PERKS}} allows you to view and manage current [[#Fishing Perks|fising perks]] while {{boldmono|FISH STATUS}} lets you view your current fishing level as well as any active fishing perks.

Lastly, {{boldmono|FISH TOTAL}} is a running tally of all of your catches (and misses). This includes all fish caught via the [[/Legacy fishing system|legacy fishing system]] as part of the total. The count of [[#Fishing Line|lines snapped]] is new as of the fishing system overhaul.

=== The Basics ===
Before you can begin fishing, you will first need to locate a fishing hole and bring your fishing equipment. You can determine whether or not you are in a fishing area via {{boldmono|FISH SENSE}}. See the [[#Locations|locations table]] for a list of known fishing areas. Fishing holes respond to fishing pressure and, if too many fish are caught in too short of a time, you will not be able to catch fish there again until some time has passed and the fish have recovered.

At minimum, a [[Fishing equipment#Fishing Rod|fishing rod]] equipped with both [[Fishing equipment#Line|line]] and a [[Fishing equipment#Lure|lure]] is needed to fish while in a fishing area. A [[Fishing equipment#sinker|sinker]] is an optional attachment that can allow you to fish at different depths other than just the water's surface.

{{boldmono|LOOKing}} at lures before attaching them to a rod will indicate the numerical bonus for each depth, with +16 being the highest bonus. Once attached, you can {{boldmono|LOOK ROD}} to see everything attached, including their benefits and bonuses. Lures and sinkers can be removed from a rod with {{boldmono|GET}}. A fishing line can be removed from the rod with {{boldmono|CUT}}, however this will destroy the line in the process.

Once you have all of your equipment in hand and are at a proper fishing spot, use the {{boldmono|[[Verb:FISHING|FISH]]}} verb to begin fishing. Catching fish, reeling, and filleting fish can increase your fishing skill level. Fish now appear with far greater frequency compared to legacy fishing, but the reeling process may last much longer, sometimes ten minutes or more. Fishing allows players to potentially catch fish in the 200-300lb range with frequency. If done correctly, line snaps should be much rarer than prior to the fishing system overhaul.

=== Casting ===
To start, hold your fishing rod - with attached line and lure - in one hand and {{boldmono|FISH CAST {distance}}} while in a fishing area.

When casting a line, you can select {{boldmono|FISH CAST NEAR}}, {{boldmono|MIDDLE}}, or {{boldmono|FAR}}. This is a risk/reward system with the further distances being more difficult to reel but potentially more rewarding with larger or rarer fish. It is recommended to select {{boldmono|NEAR}} until several fishing skill level ranks are earned.

Using a [[Fishing equipment#Fishing Rod|fishing rod]]'s verb traps for {{boldmono|PUSH}} (near), {{boldmono|WAVE}} (middle), and {{boldmono|RAISE}} (far) when manipulating the fishing rod emulate the use of {{boldmono|FISH CAST {distance}}}. They can be used interchangeably with the {{boldmono|FISH}} command.

=== Hooking a Fish ===
Once a line is cast, frequent rolls are made to attract and hook a fish. Using the correct type of lure at the correct depth will provide a bonus to a successful hook. You will know when you catch a fish!

<pre{{log2}}>You feel a brief jerk on your line before it begins to reel out wildly. You manage to yank your black fishing rod back to set the hook. The rod bends and its tip dips as the catch on your line weaves back and forth in a frantic effort to escape!</pre>

=== Reeling ===
Once a line has been cast out, it can be brought in via {{boldmono|FISH REEL}}. (Using {{boldmono|PULL ROD}} with a fishing rod emulates this command.) If no fish is on the line, it can be reeled in very quickly. However, if a fish is hooked on the line, it will fight the reeling process.

When reeling a hooked fish, a roll is made to reel the fish closer (success = rolls 100 or higher), and the fish makes a roll to try and swim further away. Success on a reel attempt means that you will draw the fish in closer. Failure means the line will stay where it is. If the fish succeeds in its own roll, then the line will go out further away from you, up until it reaches its maximum length. The goal is to reduce the distance to zero before the line snaps.

'''Reeling success factors''' contributing to roll success include:
* Fishing skill level
* Size of fish (with larger fish being more difficult to reel in)
* Some fishing perks when activated
* Distance from shore or dock: since the goal is to reduce the distance to zero, casting line to further distances will be more difficult.

The strength stat is ''no longer'' a factor in reeling success.

=== Line Condition ===
[[Fishing equipment#Line|Fishing line]] has both a '''quality''' and a '''condition'''. The quality of a line determines how quickly it degrades, with higher quality lines degrading at a slower rate than lower quality lines. The condition of the line is how much wear and tear it has endured and, ultimately, an indicator of when it might snap.

Condition is of the utmost importance while actively fishing. Fishing line condition degrades with use, and it is recommended to {{boldmono|LOOK ROD}} before each cast. This will show you the current condition of your fishing line. Fishing line will degrade in the following stages: Excellent - Decent - Showing signs of use - Frayed and in danger of snapping soon. Once the line has degraded, use {{boldmono|CUT MY ROD}} to remove the current line and then replace it with a new line. Note that cutting a rod with a lure and weight on the line will deposit these items into the [[Inventory|alongside]] inventory slot.

Fishing lines are sold in various quality levels. {{boldmono|LOOK}} at fishing line to determine its quality levels, which include:
* Exceptionally Strong
* Quite sturdy and strong
* Decently strong

It is recommended to only use the strongest quality line available, as it will degrade much slower thus providing a higher chance of a successful catch. Exceptional quality fishing line is available at [[Flimgrimy's Fishing Finds]] in [[Mist Harbor]] in the form of '''a spool of thin silver wire'''.

If a line snaps while a fish is still hooked and before it has been reeled in completely, anything attached to the rod - line, lure, and sinker - will be '''lost''' in the process.

=== Filleting Fish ===
Fish can be filleted using {{boldmono|CUT MY <FISH> WITH MY <WEAPON>}}, but a skill check is required to produce a successful fillet. Factors impacting fillet success include:
* Fishing skill level
* Weapon type, with a dagger style weapon increasing success.
* Weapon description: the KNIFE noun and FILLET adjectives provide a bonus.
* Weapon enchant level provides a bonus, with a 10x enchant providing the greatest bonus.
Therefore, a 10x dagger style weapon with the description of "fillet knife" will provide the greatest bonus.

Fish fillets can then be cooked over a suitable fire or used as an ingredient in the various [[:Category:Cooking system|cooking]] craft systems. See the [[#Locations|locations table]] for information on the locations of cooking fires.

=== Fishing Perks ===
Fishing perks are granted as skill level increases. Perks are available under the {{boldmono|[[Verb:FISHING|FISH PERK]]}} verb and include:
# Fishbane: Fish stamina falls faster when pulling in a line or struggling against a fish.
# Reel Expertise: Pulling in a line or struggling against a fish strains your fishing line less.
# Angler's Eye: You will see additional information when using FISH SENSE.
# Lucky Lure: You have an increased chance to find higher quality fish.
# Goliath Seeker: Your catches have an increased chance to be heavier.
# Deft Knife: You have an increased chance to successfully fillet fish.

Activating a fishing perk is done via {{boldmono|FISH PERK ACTIVATE {x} {y}}}, with {x} representing the perk number from the above list and {y} representing an available fishing perk slot. One perk slot is awarded at fishing level 10, with an additional perk slot awarded at level 25.

MAYLAN: /* Fishing Line */ corrected "at feet" to alongside

{{TOCright}}
'''Fishing''' is a popular pastime in [[Elanthia]]. By using certain [[fishing equipment]] - at minimum, a fishing rod with line and a lure attached - in a designated fishing area, anyone can catch fish of all sizes.

The original [[#Legacy Fishing System|Legacy Fishing System]] utilized only items as part of the fishing experience, with what was described as a very complex back end system designed to mimic real world fishing that took into account time of day and the season with regard to when fish were more likely to bite. It relied heavily on the [[strength]] stat for fishing success as well as a great deal of luck.

The [[#Artisan Fishing System|Artisan Fishing System]] was introduced in December, 2025, as a complete overhaul of the original fishing system. Instead of relying on luck and stats, it instead rewards use of the system by awarding ranks, similar to [[artisan skill]]s.

The Artisan Fishing System uses the same equipment and fishing locations as the Legacy Fishing System.

==Artisan Fishing System==
Artisan Fishing is a system released by GM Auchand in December 2025. The system introduces a new style of fishing and is currently an additional option as opposed to a replacement for the Legacy Fishing System. It is '''not''' part of the [[Artisan skill|Artisan Skill]] system and will not count towards max Artisan Skill ranks. Additionally, artisan Fishing does not provide [[EXPERIENCE|EXP]].

==={{boldmono|FISH}} Command===
{{main|Verb:FISHING}}
Most fishing related actions use the {{boldmono|FISH}} verb. Some items, such as the [[Fishing equipment#Fishing Rod|fishing rod]], emulate the {{boldmono|FISH}} command with verb traps tied to manipulating the fishing rod itself.

The main actions include {{boldmono|FISH CAST {distance}}} to cast the line and {{boldmono|FISH REEL}} to try to reel it back in. Meanwhile, {{boldmono|FISH SENSE}} can identify if your current location is a fishing spot.

In addition, {{boldmono|FISH PERKS}} allows you to view and manage current [[#Fishing Perks|fising perks]] while {{boldmono|FISH STATUS}} lets you view your current fishing level as well as any active fishing perks.

Lastly, {{boldmono|FISH TOTAL}} is a running tally of all of your catches (and misses). This includes all fish caught via the [[#Legacy Fishing System|Legacy Fishing System]] as part of the total. The count of [[#Fishing Line|lines snapped]] is exclusive to the Artisan Fishing System.

=== The Basics ===
Artisan fishing currently uses the same equipment as the Legacy Fishing System. Use the {{boldmono|[[Verb:FISHING|FISH]]}} verb to begin. Catching fish, reeling, and filleting fish can increase your fishing skill level. Fish will appear with far more frequency compared to legacy fishing, but the reeling process may last much longer, sometimes ten minutes or more. Artisan fishing allows players to potentially catch fish in the 200-300lb range with frequency. If done correctly, line snaps should be rare.

At minimum, a [[Fishing equipment#Fishing Rod|fishing rod]] equipped with both [[Fishing equipment#Line|line]] and a [[Fishing equipment#Lure|lure]] is needed to fish while in a fishing area. A [[Fishing equipment#Weight|weight]] is an optional attachment that can allow you to fish at different depths other than just the water's surface.

You can determine whether or not you are in a fishing area via {{boldmono|FISH SENSE}}. See the [[#Locations|locations table]] for a list of known fishing areas.

=== Casting ===
To start, hold your fishing rod - with attached line and lure - in one hand and {{boldmono|FISH CAST {distance}}} while in a fishing area.

When casting a line, you can select {{boldmono|FISH CAST NEAR}}, {{boldmono|MIDDLE}}, or {{boldmono|FAR}}. This is a risk/reward system with the further distances being more difficult to reel but potentially more rewarding with larger or rarer fish. It is recommended to select {{boldmono|NEAR}} until several fishing skill level ranks are earned.

Using a [[Fishing equipment#Fishing Rod|fishing rod]]'s verb traps for {{boldmono|PUSH}} (near), {{boldmono|WAVE}} (middle), and {{boldmono|RAISE}} (far) when manipulating the fishing rod emulate the use of {{boldmono|FISH CAST {distance}}}. They can be used interchangeably with the {{boldmono|FISH}} command.

=== Hooking a Fish ===
Once a line is cast, frequent rolls are made to attract and hook a fish. Using the correct type of lure at the correct depth will provide a bonus to a successful hook. LOOKing at lures will indicate the numerical bonus for each dept, with +16 being the highest bonus.

=== Reeling ===
Once a line has been cast out, it can be brought in via {{boldmono|FISH REEL}}. (Using {{boldmono|PULL ROD}} with a fishing rod emulates this command.) If no fish is on the line, it can be quickly reeled in. If a fish is hooked on the line, it will fight the reeling process.

When reeling fish, a roll is made to reel the fish closer (success = rolls 100 or higher), and the fish makes a roll to try and swim further away. The goal is to reduce the distance to zero before the line snaps. '''Reeling success factors''' contributing to roll success include:
* Fishing skill level
* Size of fish (with larger fish being more difficult to reel in)
* Some fishing perks when activated
* Distance from shore or dock: since the goal is to reduce the distance to zero, casting line to further distances will be more difficult.

Unlike legacy fishing, the strength stat is ''not'' a factor in reeling success.

=== Fishing Line ===
{{main|Fishing equipment}}
[[Fishing equipment#Line|Fishing line]] condition is of the utmost importance. Fishing line condition degrades with use, and it is recommended to {{boldmono|LOOK ROD}} before each cast. This will show you the current condition of your fishing line. Fishing line will degrade in the following stages: Excellent - Decent - Showing signs of use - Frayed and in danger of snapping soon. Once the line has degraded, use CUT MY ROD to replace the line. Note that cutting a rod with a lure and weight on the line will deposit these items into the [[Inventory|alongside]] inventory slot.

Fishing lines are sold in various quality levels. {{boldmono|LOOK}} at fishing line to determine its quality levels, which include:
* Exceptionally Strong
* Quite sturdy and strong
* Decently strong

It is recommended to only use the strongest quality line available, as it will degrade much slower thus providing a higher chance of a successful catch. Exceptional quality fishing line is available at [[Flimgrimy's Fishing Finds]] in [[Mist Harbor]] in the form of '''a spool of thin silver wire'''.

=== Filleting Fish ===
Fish can be filleted using {{boldmono|CUT MY <FISH> WITH MY <WEAPON>}}, but a skill check is required to produce a successful fillet. Factors impacting fillet success include:
* Fishing skill level
* Weapon type, with a dagger style weapon increasing success.
* Weapon description: the KNIFE noun and FILLET adjectives provide a bonus.
* Weapon enchant level provides a bonus, with a 10x enchant providing the greatest bonus.
Therefore, a 10x dagger style weapon with the description of "fillet knife" will provide the greatest bonus.

Fish fillets can then be cooked over a suitable fire or used as an ingredient in the various [[:Category:Cooking system|cooking]] craft systems. See the [[#Locations|locations table]] for information on the locations of cooking fires.

=== Fishing Perks ===
Fishing perks are granted as skill level increases. Perks are available under the {{boldmono|[[Verb:FISHING|FISH PERK]]}} verb and include:
# Fishbane: Fish stamina falls faster when pulling in a line or struggling against a fish.
# Reel Expertise: Pulling in a line or struggling against a fish strains your fishing line less.
# Angler's Eye: You will see additional information when using FISH SENSE.
# Lucky Lure: You have an increased chance to find higher quality fish.
# Goliath Seeker: Your catches have an increased chance to be heavier.
# Deft Knife: You have an increased chance to successfully fillet fish.

Activating a fishing perk is done via {{boldmono|FISH PERK ACTIVATE {x} {y}}}, with {x} representing the perk number from the above list and {y} representing an available fishing perk slot. One perk slot is awarded at fishing level 10, with an additional perk slot awarded at level 25.

==Legacy Fishing System ==
The original fishing system involved manipulating [[fishing equipment]] as the means of catching fish at designated fishing locations.
=== Bonus Checks===
The first set of checks determine the rarity of fish. There are 5 tiers of rarity:
#Common
#Uncommon
#Rare
#Very rare
#Legendary

Tiers 1 through 4 aren't to difficult to come by, but to get tier 5 fish, more research and an understanding of the system is required to be successful. It's possible to catch a legendary fish without meeting all bonuses and hitting a great random roll, but you'll have a much easier time if you can meet 3 of the 4 bonus criteria.

There is a seasonal bonus, it's better to fish in the spring and summer. Fall is neutral. Winter has a penalty. (Given seasons aren't the same across the world, these seasons are reflected on the United States.)

There are bonuses to fishing during certain hours of the day; it's not random. It also doesn't look at time zones, it's just a generic time of day that is the best time to fish.

There are bonuses for the area (is it a good/hot spot). This is another aspect to discover on your own. This also applies to catching lobsters.

The lure has a bonus as long as it's used in the right depth of water. If you catch a tier 5 fish, you used the lure at the right depths.

Then there is just a random element entirely for those that don't know what they are doing.

===Reeling it In===
Once the fish is on your line, there are a new set of checks.

The only stat that is used is [[Strength]].

The fish's strength is determined by the phase you're in. Did you just catch it? Is it wearing down? A fish just hooked is strong. Bigger fish are harder to catch from having an inherited strength bonus.

There are some random elements to both the fisherman and the fish here as well. Think of these as "critical catches." But it also helps those who don't have strength or aren't waiting to tire the fish out.

=== Snapping a Line ===
Too much slack is a huge penalty and will result in a warning message. Learn what is good enough.

Reeling in too early has a bigger chance to snap a line.

Leaving the fish on the line longer tires the fish out, but it also weakens the line.

===The Catch===
The fish that was caught on the line was determined at first bite. There are 5 tiers of rarity for fish. There are 3 depths. Each depth has the 5 tiers.

Fishing now tracks total fish caught, as well as which tier it came from.

===Cooking===
Caught fish can be cut into fillets using {{boldmono|[[CUT (verb)|CUT]] MY FISH WITH MY <WEAPON>}}. Heavier fish may produce more than one fillet. These fillets can then be cooked over a suitable fire or as an ingredient in the various [[:Category:Cooking system|cooking]] craft systems. See the below table for information on the locations of cooking fires.

Fishing

2025-12-12T00:21:54Z

MAYLAN: /* Fishing Line */ added note about lures and weights going to at feet when line is cut.

{{TOCright}}
'''Fishing''' is a popular pastime in [[Elanthia]]. By using certain [[fishing equipment]] - at minimum, a fishing rod with line and a lure attached - in a designated fishing area, anyone can catch fish of all sizes.

The original [[#Legacy Fishing System|Legacy Fishing System]] utilized only items as part of the fishing experience, with what was described as a very complex back end system designed to mimic real world fishing that took into account time of day and the season with regard to when fish were more likely to bite. It relied heavily on the [[strength]] stat for fishing success as well as a great deal of luck.

The [[#Artisan Fishing System|Artisan Fishing System]] was introduced in December, 2025, as a complete overhaul of the original fishing system. Instead of relying on luck and stats, it instead rewards use of the system by awarding ranks, similar to [[artisan skill]]s. However, it is ''not'' a formal artisan skill and does not count against them when learning how to fish. The Artisan Fishing System uses the same equipment and fishing locations as the Legacy Fishing System.

==Equipment==
The cost of [[fishing equipment]] varies depending on material, design, quality, and quantity. See the [[:Category: Fishing shops|Fishing Shops category]] for inventory.

==Fishing Shops==
Fishing shops are located in a number of towns across Elanthia. In addition to these permanent town shops, both standard and specialty fishing gear is sometimes sold at [[festival]]s and [[pay event]]s.

==Artisan Fishing System==
Artisan Fishing is a system released by GM Auchand in December 2025. The system introduces a new style of fishing and is currently an additional option as opposed to a replacement for the Legacy Fishing System. It is '''not''' part of the [[Artisan skill|Artisan Skill]] system and will not count towards max Artisan Skill ranks. Additionally, artisan Fishing does not provide [[EXPERIENCE|EXP]].

==={{boldmono|FISH}} Command===
{{main|Verb:FISHING}}
Most fishing related actions use the {{boldmono|FISH}} verb. Some items, such as the [[Fishing equipment#Fishing Rod|fishing rod]], emulate the {{boldmono|FISH}} command with verb traps tied to manipulating the fishing rod itself.

The main actions include {{boldmono|FISH CAST {distance}}} to cast the line and {{boldmono|FISH REEL}} to try to reel it back in. Meanwhile, {{boldmono|FISH SENSE}} can identify if your current location is a fishing spot.

In addition, {{boldmono|FISH PERKS}} allows you to view and manage current [[#Fishing Perks|fising perks]] while {{boldmono|FISH STATUS}} lets you view your current fishing level as well as any active fishing perks.

Lastly, {{boldmono|FISH TOTAL}} is a running tally of all of your catches (and misses). This includes all fish caught via the [[#Legacy Fishing System|Legacy Fishing System]] as part of the total. The count of [[#Fishing Line|lines snapped]] is exclusive to the Artisan Fishing System.

=== The Basics ===
Artisan fishing currently uses the same equipment as the Legacy Fishing System. Use the {{boldmono|[[Verb:FISHING|FISH]]}} verb to begin. Catching fish, reeling, and filleting fish can increase your fishing skill level. Fish will appear with far more frequency compared to legacy fishing, but the reeling process may last much longer, sometimes ten minutes or more. Artisan fishing allows players to potentially catch fish in the 200-300lb range with frequency. If done correctly, line snaps should be rare.

At minimum, a [[Fishing equipment#Fishing Rod|fishing rod]] equipped with both [[Fishing equipment#Line|line]] and a [[Fishing equipment#Lure|lure]] is needed to fish while in a fishing area. A [[Fishing equipment#Weight|weight]] is an optional attachment that can allow you to fish at different depths other than just the water's surface.

You can determine whether or not you are in a fishing area via {{boldmono|FISH SENSE}}. See the [[#Locations|locations table]] for a list of known fishing areas.

=== Casting ===
To start, hold your fishing rod - with attached line and lure - in one hand and {{boldmono|FISH CAST {distance}}} while in a fishing area.

When casting a line, you can select {{boldmono|FISH CAST NEAR}}, {{boldmono|MIDDLE}}, or {{boldmono|FAR}}. This is a risk/reward system with the further distances being more difficult to reel but potentially more rewarding with larger or rarer fish. It is recommended to select {{boldmono|NEAR}} until several fishing skill level ranks are earned.

Using a [[Fishing equipment#Fishing Rod|fishing rod]]'s verb traps for {{boldmono|PUSH}} (near), {{boldmono|WAVE}} (middle), and {{boldmono|RAISE}} (far) when manipulating the fishing rod emulate the use of {{boldmono|FISH CAST {distance}}}. They can be used interchangeably with the {{boldmono|FISH}} command.

=== Hooking a Fish ===
Once a line is cast, frequent rolls are made to attract and hook a fish. Using the correct type of lure at the correct depth will provide a bonus to a successful hook. LOOKing at lures will indicate the numerical bonus for each dept, with +16 being the highest bonus.

=== Reeling ===
Once a line has been cast out, it can be brought in via {{boldmono|FISH REEL}}. (Using {{boldmono|PULL ROD}} with a fishing rod emulates this command.) If no fish is on the line, it can be quickly reeled in. If a fish is hooked on the line, it will fight the reeling process.

When reeling fish, a roll is made to reel the fish closer (success = rolls 100 or higher), and the fish makes a roll to try and swim further away. The goal is to reduce the distance to zero before the line snaps. '''Reeling success factors''' contributing to roll success include:
* Fishing skill level
* Size of fish (with larger fish being more difficult to reel in)
* Some fishing perks when activated
* Distance from shore or dock: since the goal is to reduce the distance to zero, casting line to further distances will be more difficult.

Unlike legacy fishing, the strength stat is ''not'' a factor in reeling success.

=== Fishing Line ===
{{main|Fishing equipment}}
[[Fishing equipment#Line|Fishing line]] condition is of the utmost importance. Fishing line condition degrades with use, and it is recommended to {{boldmono|LOOK ROD}} before each cast. This will show you the current condition of your fishing line. Fishing line will degrade in the following stages: Excellent - Decent - Showing signs of use - Frayed and in danger of snapping soon. Once the line has degraded, use CUT MY ROD to replace the line. Note that cutting a rod with a lure and weight on the line will deposit these items into the [[Inventory|AT FEET]] inventory slot.

Fishing lines are sold in various quality levels. {{boldmono|LOOK}} at fishing line to determine its quality levels, which include:
* Exceptionally Strong
* Quite sturdy and strong
* Decently strong

It is recommended to only use the strongest quality line available, as it will degrade much slower thus providing a higher chance of a successful catch. Exceptional quality fishing line is available at [[Flimgrimy's Fishing Finds]] in [[Mist Harbor]] in the form of '''a spool of thin silver wire'''.

=== Filleting Fish ===
Fish can be filleted using {{boldmono|CUT MY <FISH> WITH MY <WEAPON>}}, but a skill check is required to produce a successful fillet. Factors impacting fillet success include:
* Fishing skill level
* Weapon type, with a dagger style weapon increasing success.
* Weapon description: the KNIFE noun and FILLET adjectives provide a bonus.
* Weapon enchant level provides a bonus, with a 10x enchant providing the greatest bonus.
Therefore, a 10x dagger style weapon with the description of "fillet knife" will provide the greatest bonus.

Fish fillets can then be cooked over a suitable fire or used as an ingredient in the various [[:Category:Cooking system|cooking]] craft systems. See the [[#Locations|locations table]] for information on the locations of cooking fires.

=== Fishing Perks ===
Fishing perks are granted as skill level increases. Perks are available under the {{boldmono|[[Verb:FISHING|FISH PERK]]}} verb and include:
# Fishbane: Fish stamina falls faster when pulling in a line or struggling against a fish.
# Reel Expertise: Pulling in a line or struggling against a fish strains your fishing line less.
# Angler's Eye: You will see additional information when using FISH SENSE.
# Lucky Lure: You have an increased chance to find higher quality fish.
# Goliath Seeker: Your catches have an increased chance to be heavier.
# Deft Knife: You have an increased chance to successfully fillet fish.

Activating a fishing perk is done via {{boldmono|FISH PERK ACTIVATE {x} {y}}}, with {x} representing the perk number from the above list and {y} representing an available fishing perk slot. One perk slot is awarded at fishing level 10, with an additional perk slot awarded at level 25.

==Legacy Fishing System ==
The original fishing system involved manipulating [[fishing equipment]] as the means of catching fish at designated fishing locations.
=== Bonus Checks===
The first set of checks determine the rarity of fish. There are 5 tiers of rarity:

It's possible to catch a legendary fish without meeting all bonuses and hitting a great random roll, but you'll have a much easier time if you can meet 3 of the 4 bonus criteria.

There is a seasonal bonus, it's better to fish in the spring and summer. Fall is neutral. Winter has a penalty. (Given seasons aren't the same across the world, these seasons are reflected on the United States.)

There are bonuses to fishing during certain hours of the day; it's not random. It also doesn't look at time zones, it's just a generic time of day that is the best time to fish.

The lure has a bonus as long as it's used in the right depth of water. If you catch a tier 5 fish, you used the lure at the right depths.

Then there is just a random element entirely for those that don't know what they are doing.

===Reeling it In===
Once the fish is on your line, there are a new set of checks.

The only stat that is used is [[Strength]].

The fish's strength is determined by the phase you're in. Did you just catch it? Is it wearing down? A fish just hooked is strong. Bigger fish are harder to catch from having an inherited strength bonus.

There are some random elements to both the fisherman and the fish here as well. Think of these as "critical catches." But it also helps those who don't have strength or aren't waiting to tire the fish out.

=== Snapping a Line ===
Too much slack is a huge penalty and will result in a warning message. Learn what is good enough.

Reeling in too early has a bigger chance to snap a line.

Leaving the fish on the line longer tires the fish out, but it also weakens the line.

The fish that was caught on the line was determined at first bite. There are 5 tiers of rarity for fish. There are 3 depths. Each depth has the 5 tiers.

Fishing now tracks total fish caught, as well as which tier it came from.

===Cooking===
Caught fish can be cut into fillets using {{boldmono|[[CUT (verb)|CUT]] MY FISH WITH MY <WEAPON>}}. Heavier fish may produce more than one fillet. These fillets can then be cooked over a suitable fire or as an ingredient in the various [[:Category:Cooking system|cooking]] craft systems.

Fishing

2025-12-12T00:19:49Z

MAYLAN: /* Artisan Fishing System */ added info about hooking fish.

{{TOCright}}
'''Fishing''' is a popular pastime in [[Elanthia]]. By using certain [[fishing equipment]] - at minimum, a fishing rod with line and a lure attached - in a designated fishing area, anyone can catch fish of all sizes.

The original [[#Legacy Fishing System|Legacy Fishing System]] utilized only items as part of the fishing experience, with what was described as a very complex back end system designed to mimic real world fishing that took into account time of day and the season with regard to when fish were more likely to bite. It relied heavily on the [[strength]] stat for fishing success as well as a great deal of luck.

The [[#Artisan Fishing System|Artisan Fishing System]] was introduced in December, 2025, as a complete overhaul of the original fishing system. Instead of relying on luck and stats, it instead rewards use of the system by awarding ranks, similar to [[artisan skill]]s. However, it is ''not'' a formal artisan skill and does not count against them when learning how to fish. The Artisan Fishing System uses the same equipment and fishing locations as the Legacy Fishing System.

==Equipment==
The cost of [[fishing equipment]] varies depending on material, design, quality, and quantity. See the [[:Category: Fishing shops|Fishing Shops category]] for inventory.

==Artisan Fishing System==
Artisan Fishing is a system released by GM Auchand in December 2025. The system introduces a new style of fishing and is currently an additional option as opposed to a replacement for the Legacy Fishing System. It is '''not''' part of the [[Artisan skill|Artisan Skill]] system and will not count towards max Artisan Skill ranks. Additionally, artisan Fishing does not provide [[EXPERIENCE|EXP]].

==={{boldmono|FISH}} Command===
{{main|Verb:FISHING}}
Most fishing related actions use the {{boldmono|FISH}} verb. Some items, such as the [[Fishing equipment#Fishing Rod|fishing rod]], emulate the {{boldmono|FISH}} command with verb traps tied to manipulating the fishing rod itself.

The main actions include {{boldmono|FISH CAST {distance}}} to cast the line and {{boldmono|FISH REEL}} to try to reel it back in. Meanwhile, {{boldmono|FISH SENSE}} can identify if your current location is a fishing spot.

In addition, {{boldmono|FISH PERKS}} allows you to view and manage current [[#Fishing Perks|fising perks]] while {{boldmono|FISH STATUS}} lets you view your current fishing level as well as any active fishing perks.

Lastly, {{boldmono|FISH TOTAL}} is a running tally of all of your catches (and misses). This includes all fish caught via the [[#Legacy Fishing System|Legacy Fishing System]] as part of the total. The count of [[#Fishing Line|lines snapped]] is exclusive to the Artisan Fishing System.

=== The Basics ===
Artisan fishing currently uses the same equipment as the Legacy Fishing System. Use the {{boldmono|[[Verb:FISHING|FISH]]}} verb to begin. Catching fish, reeling, and filleting fish can increase your fishing skill level. Fish will appear with far more frequency compared to legacy fishing, but the reeling process may last much longer, sometimes ten minutes or more. Artisan fishing allows players to potentially catch fish in the 200-300lb range with frequency. If done correctly, line snaps should be rare.

At minimum, a [[Fishing equipment#Fishing Rod|fishing rod]] equipped with both [[Fishing equipment#Line|line]] and a [[Fishing equipment#Lure|lure]] is needed to fish while in a fishing area. A [[Fishing equipment#Weight|weight]] is an optional attachment that can allow you to fish at different depths other than just the water's surface.

You can determine whether or not you are in a fishing area via {{boldmono|FISH SENSE}}. See the [[#Locations|locations table]] for a list of known fishing areas.

=== Casting ===
To start, hold your fishing rod - with attached line and lure - in one hand and {{boldmono|FISH CAST {distance}}} while in a fishing area.

When casting a line, you can select {{boldmono|FISH CAST NEAR}}, {{boldmono|MIDDLE}}, or {{boldmono|FAR}}. This is a risk/reward system with the further distances being more difficult to reel but potentially more rewarding with larger or rarer fish. It is recommended to select {{boldmono|NEAR}} until several fishing skill level ranks are earned.

Using a [[Fishing equipment#Fishing Rod|fishing rod]]'s verb traps for {{boldmono|PUSH}} (near), {{boldmono|WAVE}} (middle), and {{boldmono|RAISE}} (far) when manipulating the fishing rod emulate the use of {{boldmono|FISH CAST {distance}}}. They can be used interchangeably with the {{boldmono|FISH}} command.

=== Hooking a Fish ===
Once a line is cast, frequent rolls are made to attract and hook a fish. Using the correct type of lure at the correct depth will provide a bonus to a successful hook. LOOKing at lures will indicate the numerical bonus for each dept, with +16 being the highest bonus.

=== Reeling ===
Once a line has been cast out, it can be brought in via {{boldmono|FISH REEL}}. (Using {{boldmono|PULL ROD}} with a fishing rod emulates this command.) If no fish is on the line, it can be quickly reeled in. If a fish is hooked on the line, it will fight the reeling process.

When reeling fish, a roll is made to reel the fish closer (success = rolls 100 or higher), and the fish makes a roll to try and swim further away. The goal is to reduce the distance to zero before the line snaps. '''Reeling success factors''' contributing to roll success include:
* Fishing skill level
* Size of fish (with larger fish being more difficult to reel in)
* Some fishing perks when activated
* Distance from shore or dock: since the goal is to reduce the distance to zero, casting line to further distances will be more difficult.

Unlike legacy fishing, the strength stat is ''not'' a factor in reeling success.

=== Fishing Line ===
{{main|Fishing equipment}}
[[Fishing equipment#Line|Fishing line]] condition is of the utmost importance. Fishing line condition degrades with use, and it is recommended to {{boldmono|LOOK ROD}} before each cast. This will show you the current condition of your fishing line. Fishing line will degrade in the following stages: Excellent - Decent - Showing signs of use - Frayed and in danger of snapping soon. Once the line has degraded, use CUT MY ROD to replace the line.

Fishing lines are sold in various quality levels. {{boldmono|LOOK}} at fishing line to determine its quality levels, which include:
* Exceptionally Strong
* Quite sturdy and strong
* Decently strong

It is recommended to only use the strongest quality line available, as it will degrade much slower thus providing a higher chance of a successful catch. Exceptional quality fishing line is available at [[Flimgrimy's Fishing Finds]] in [[Mist Harbor]] in the form of '''a spool of thin silver wire'''.

=== Filleting Fish ===
Fish can be filleted using {{boldmono|CUT MY <FISH> WITH MY <WEAPON>}}, but a skill check is required to produce a successful fillet. Factors impacting fillet success include:
* Fishing skill level
* Weapon type, with a dagger style weapon increasing success.
* Weapon description: the KNIFE noun and FILLET adjectives provide a bonus.
* Weapon enchant level provides a bonus, with a 10x enchant providing the greatest bonus.
Therefore, a 10x dagger style weapon with the description of "fillet knife" will provide the greatest bonus.

Fish fillets can then be cooked over a suitable fire or used as an ingredient in the various [[:Category:Cooking system|cooking]] craft systems. See the [[#Locations|locations table]] for information on the locations of cooking fires.

=== Fishing Perks ===
Fishing perks are granted as skill level increases. Perks are available under the {{boldmono|[[Verb:FISHING|FISH PERK]]}} verb and include:
# Fishbane: Fish stamina falls faster when pulling in a line or struggling against a fish.
# Reel Expertise: Pulling in a line or struggling against a fish strains your fishing line less.
# Angler's Eye: You will see additional information when using FISH SENSE.
# Lucky Lure: You have an increased chance to find higher quality fish.
# Goliath Seeker: Your catches have an increased chance to be heavier.
# Deft Knife: You have an increased chance to successfully fillet fish.

Activating a fishing perk is done via {{boldmono|FISH PERK ACTIVATE {x} {y}}}, with {x} representing the perk number from the above list and {y} representing an available fishing perk slot. One perk slot is awarded at fishing level 10, with an additional perk slot awarded at level 25.

==Legacy Fishing System ==
The original fishing system involved manipulating [[fishing equipment]] as the means of catching fish at designated fishing locations.
=== Bonus Checks===
The first set of checks determine the rarity of fish. There are 5 tiers of rarity:
#Common
#Uncommon
#Rare
#Very rare
#Legendary

Tiers 1 through 4 aren't to difficult to come by, but to get tier 5 fish, more research and an understanding of the system is required to be successful. It's possible to catch a legendary fish without meeting all bonuses and hitting a great random roll, but you'll have a much easier time if you can meet 3 of the 4 bonus criteria.

There is a seasonal bonus, it's better to fish in the spring and summer. Fall is neutral. Winter has a penalty. (Given seasons aren't the same across the world, these seasons are reflected on the United States.)

There are bonuses to fishing during certain hours of the day; it's not random. It also doesn't look at time zones, it's just a generic time of day that is the best time to fish.

There are bonuses for the area (is it a good/hot spot). This is another aspect to discover on your own. This also applies to catching lobsters.

The lure has a bonus as long as it's used in the right depth of water. If you catch a tier 5 fish, you used the lure at the right depths.

Then there is just a random element entirely for those that don't know what they are doing.

===Reeling it In===
Once the fish is on your line, there are a new set of checks.

The only stat that is used is [[Strength]].

The fish's strength is determined by the phase you're in. Did you just catch it? Is it wearing down? A fish just hooked is strong. Bigger fish are harder to catch from having an inherited strength bonus.

There are some random elements to both the fisherman and the fish here as well. Think of these as "critical catches." But it also helps those who don't have strength or aren't waiting to tire the fish out.

=== Snapping a Line ===
Too much slack is a huge penalty and will result in a warning message. Learn what is good enough.

Reeling in too early has a bigger chance to snap a line.

Leaving the fish on the line longer tires the fish out, but it also weakens the line.

===The Catch===
The fish that was caught on the line was determined at first bite. There are 5 tiers of rarity for fish. There are 3 depths. Each depth has the 5 tiers.

Fishing now tracks total fish caught, as well as which tier it came from.

===Cooking===
Caught fish can be cut into fillets using {{boldmono|[[CUT (verb)|CUT]] MY FISH WITH MY <WEAPON>}}. Heavier fish may produce more than one fillet. These fillets can then be cooked over a suitable fire or as an ingredient in the various [[:Category:Cooking system|cooking]] craft systems. See the below table for information on the locations of cooking fires.

The main actions include {{boldmono|FISH CAST {distance}}} to cast the line and {{boldmono|FISH REEL}} to try to reel it back in. Meanwhile, {{boldmono|FISH SENSE}} can identify if your current location is a fishing spot.

In addition, {{boldmono|FISH PERKS}} allows you to view and manage current [[#Fishing Perks|fising perks]] while {{boldmono|FISH STATUS}} lets you view your current fishing level as well as any active fishing perks.

Lastly, {{boldmono|FISH TOTAL}} is a running tally of all of your catches (and misses). This includes all fish caught via the [[#Legacy Fishing System|Legacy Fishing System]] as part of the total. The count of [[#Fishing Line|lines snapped]] is exclusive to the Artisan Fishing System.

=== The Basics ===
Artisan fishing currently uses the same equipment as the Legacy Fishing System. Use the {{boldmono|[[Verb:FISHING|FISH]]}} verb to begin. Catching fish, reeling, and filleting fish can increase your fishing skill level. Fish will appear with far more frequency compared to legacy fishing, but the reeling process may last much longer, sometimes ten minutes or more. Artisan fishing allows players to potentially catch fish in the 200-300lb range with frequency. If done correctly, line snaps should be rare.

At minimum, a [[Fishing equipment#Fishing Rod|fishing rod]] equipped with both [[Fishing equipment#Line|line]] and a [[Fishing equipment#Lure|lure]] is needed to fish while in a fishing area. A [[Fishing equipment#Weight|weight]] is an optional attachment that can allow you to fish at different depths other than just the water's surface.

You can determine whether or not you are in a fishing area via {{boldmono|FISH SENSE}}. See the [[#Locations|locations table]] for a list of known fishing areas.

=== Casting ===
To start, hold your fishing rod - with attached line and lure - in one hand and {{boldmono|FISH CAST {distance}}} while in a fishing area.

When casting a line, you can select {{boldmono|FISH CAST NEAR}}, {{boldmono|MIDDLE}}, or {{boldmono|FAR}}. This is a risk/reward system with the further distances being more difficult to reel but potentially more rewarding with larger or rarer fish. It is recommended to select {{boldmono|NEAR}} until several fishing skill level ranks are earned.

Using a [[Fishing equipment#Fishing Rod|fishing rod]]'s verb traps for {{boldmono|PUSH}} (near), {{boldmono|WAVE}} (middle), and {{boldmono|RAISE}} (far) when manipulating the fishing rod emulate the use of {{boldmono|FISH CAST {distance}}}. They can be used interchangeably with the {{boldmono|FISH}} command.

=== Reeling ===
Once a line has been cast out, it can be brought in via {{boldmono|FISH REEL}}. (Using {{boldmono|PULL ROD}} with a fishing rod emulates this command.) If no fish is on the line, it can be quickly reeled in. If a fish is hooked on the line, it will fight the reeling process.

When reeling fish, a roll is made to reel the fish closer (success = rolls 100 or higher), and the fish makes a roll to try and swim further away. The goal is to reduce the distance to zero before the line snaps. '''Reeling success factors''' contributing to roll success include:
* Fishing skill level
* Size of fish (with larger fish being more difficult to reel in)
* Some fishing perks when activated
* Distance from shore or dock: since the goal is to reduce the distance to zero, casting line to further distances will be more difficult.

Unlike legacy fishing, the strength stat is ''not'' a factor in reeling success.

=== Fishing Line ===
{{main|Fishing equipment}}
[[Fishing equipment#Line|Fishing line]] condition is of the utmost importance. Fishing line condition degrades with use, and it is recommended to {{boldmono|LOOK ROD}} before each cast. This will show you the current condition of your fishing line. Fishing line will degrade in the following stages: Excellent - Decent - Showing signs of use - Frayed and in danger of snapping soon. Once the line has degraded, use CUT MY ROD to replace the line.

Fishing lines are sold in various quality levels. {{boldmono|LOOK}} at fishing line to determine its quality levels, which include:
* Exceptionally Strong
* Quite sturdy and strong
* Decently strong

It is recommended to only use the strongest quality line available, as it will degrade much slower thus providing a higher chance of a successful catch. Exceptional quality fishing line is available at [[Flimgrimy's Fishing Finds]] in [[Mist Harbor]] in the form of '''a spool of thin silver wire'''.

=== Filleting Fish ===
Fish can be filleted using {{boldmono|CUT MY <FISH> WITH MY <WEAPON>}}, but a skill check is required to produce a successful fillet. Factors impacting fillet success include:
* Fishing skill level
* Weapon type, with a dagger style weapon increasing success.
* Weapon description: the KNIFE noun and FILLET adjectives provide a bonus.
* Weapon enchant level provides a bonus, with a 10x enchant providing the greatest bonus.
Therefore, a 10x dagger style weapon with the description of "fillet knife" will provide the greatest bonus.

Fish fillets can then be cooked over a suitable fire or used as an ingredient in the various [[:Category:Cooking system|cooking]] craft systems. See the [[#Locations|locations table]] for information on the locations of cooking fires.

=== Fishing Perks ===
Fishing perks are granted as skill level increases. Perks are available under the {{boldmono|[[Verb:FISHING|FISH PERK]]}} verb and include:
# Fishbane: Fish stamina falls faster when pulling in a line or struggling against a fish.
# Reel Expertise: Pulling in a line or struggling against a fish strains your fishing line less.
# Angler's Eye: You will see additional information when using FISH SENSE.
# Lucky Lure: You have an increased chance to find higher quality fish.
# Goliath Seeker: Your catches have an increased chance to be heavier.
# Deft Knife: You have an increased chance to successfully fillet fish.

Activating a fishing perk is done via {{boldmono|FISH PERK ACTIVATE {x} {y}}}, with {x} representing the perk number from the above list and {y} representing an available fishing perk slot. One perk slot is awarded at fishing level 10, with an additional perk slot awarded at level 25.

==Legacy Fishing System ==
The original fishing system involved manipulating [[fishing equipment]] as the means of catching fish at designated fishing locations.
=== Bonus Checks===
The first set of checks determine the rarity of fish. There are 5 tiers of rarity:
#Common
#Uncommon
#Rare
#Very rare
#Legendary

Tiers 1 through 4 aren't to difficult to come by, but to get tier 5 fish, more research and an understanding of the system is required to be successful. It's possible to catch a legendary fish without meeting all bonuses and hitting a great random roll, but you'll have a much easier time if you can meet 3 of the 4 bonus criteria.

There is a seasonal bonus, it's better to fish in the spring and summer. Fall is neutral. Winter has a penalty. (Given seasons aren't the same across the world, these seasons are reflected on the United States.)

There are bonuses to fishing during certain hours of the day; it's not random. It also doesn't look at time zones, it's just a generic time of day that is the best time to fish.

There are bonuses for the area (is it a good/hot spot). This is another aspect to discover on your own. This also applies to catching lobsters.

The lure has a bonus as long as it's used in the right depth of water. If you catch a tier 5 fish, you used the lure at the right depths.

Then there is just a random element entirely for those that don't know what they are doing.

===Reeling it In===
Once the fish is on your line, there are a new set of checks.

The only stat that is used is [[Strength]].

The fish's strength is determined by the phase you're in. Did you just catch it? Is it wearing down? A fish just hooked is strong. Bigger fish are harder to catch from having an inherited strength bonus.

There are some random elements to both the fisherman and the fish here as well. Think of these as "critical catches." But it also helps those who don't have strength or aren't waiting to tire the fish out.

=== Snapping a Line ===
Too much slack is a huge penalty and will result in a warning message. Learn what is good enough.

Reeling in too early has a bigger chance to snap a line.

Leaving the fish on the line longer tires the fish out, but it also weakens the line.

===The Catch===
The fish that was caught on the line was determined at first bite. There are 5 tiers of rarity for fish. There are 3 depths. Each depth has the 5 tiers.

Fishing now tracks total fish caught, as well as which tier it came from.

===Cooking===
Caught fish can be cut into fillets using {{boldmono|[[CUT (verb)|CUT]] MY FISH WITH MY <WEAPON>}}. Heavier fish may produce more than one fillet. These fillets can then be cooked over a suitable fire or as an ingredient in the various [[:Category:Cooking system|cooking]] craft systems. See the below table for information on the locations of cooking fires.

==Artisan Fishing System==
Artisan Fishing is a system released by GM Auchand in December 2025. The system introduces a new style of fishing and is currently an additional option as opposed to a replacement for the Legacy Fishing System. It is '''not''' part of the [[Artisan skill|Artisan Skill]] system and will not count towards max Artisan Skill ranks. Additionally, artisan Fishing does not provide [[EXPERIENCE|EXP]].

=== The Basics ===
Artisan fishing currently uses the same equipment as the Legacy Fishing System. Use the [[FISH]] verb to begin. Catching fish, reeling, and filleting fish will increase your fishing skill level. Fish will appear with far more frequency compared to legacy fishing, but the reeling process may last much longer, sometimes ten minutes or more. Artisan fishing allows players to potentially catch fish in the 200-300lb range with frequency. If done correctly, line snaps should be rare.

=== Casting Distance ===
When casting a line, you can select FISH CAST NEAR, MIDDLE, or FAR. This is a risk/reward system with the further distances being more difficult to reel but potentially more rewarding with larger or rarer fish. It is recommended to select NEAR until several fishing skill level ranks are earned.

=== Reeling Success Factors ===
When reeling fish, a roll is made to reel the fish closer (success = rolls 100 or higher), and the fish makes a roll to try and swim further away. The goal is to reduce the distance to zero before the line snaps. Factors contributing to roll success include:

* Fishing skill level
* Size of fish (with larger fish being more difficult to reel in)
* Some fishing perks when activated
* Distance from shore or dock: since the goal is to reduce the distance to zero, casting line to further distances will be more difficult.

Unlike legacy fishing, the strength stat is not a factor in reeling success.

=== Fishing Line ===
Fishing line quality is of the utmost importance. Fishing line integrity degrades with use, and it is recommended to LOOK ROD before each cast. Fishing line will degrade in the following stages: Excellent - Decent - Showing signs of use - Frayed and in danger of snapping soon. Once the line has degraded, use CUT MY ROD to replace the line.

Fishing lines are sold in various quality levels. LOOK at fishing line to determine its quality levels, which include:

* Exceptionally Strong
* Quite sturdy and strong
* Decently strong

It is recommended to only use exceptionally strong line, as it will degrade much slower thus providing a higher chance of a successful catch. Exceptional quality fishing line is available [[Flimgrimy's Fishing Finds]] in Mist Harbor (purchase a spool of thin wire).

=== Filleting Fish ===
Fish can be filleted using CUT MY <FISH> WITH MY <WEAPON>, but a skill check is required to produce a successful fillet. Factors impacting fillet success include:

* Fishing skill level
* Weapon type, with a dagger style weapon increasing success.
* Weapon description: the KNIFE noun and FILLET adjectives provide a bonus.
* Weapon enchant level provides a bonus, with a 10x enchant providing the greatest bonus.
Therefore, a 10x dagger style weapon with the description of "fillet knife" will provide the greatest bonus.

=== Fishing Perks ===
Fishing perks are granted as skill level increases. Perks are available under the [[FISH PERK]] verb and include:

# Fishbane: Fish stamina falls faster when pulling in a line or struggling against a fish.
# Reel Expertise: Pulling in a line or struggling against a fish strains your fishing line less.
# Angler's Eye: You will see additional information when using FISH SENSE.
# Lucky Lure: You have an increased chance to find higher quality fish.
# Goliath Seeker: Your catches have an increased chance to be heavier.
# Deft Knife: You have an increased chance to successfully fillet fish.

One perk slot is awarded at fishing level 10, with an additional slot awarded at 25.

==Legacy Fishing System ==
The original fishing system involved manipulating [[fishing equipment]] as the means of catching fish at designated fishing locations.
=== Bonus checks===
The first set of checks determine the rarity of fish. There are 5 tiers of rarity:
#Common
#Uncommon
#Rare
#Very rare
#Legendary

Tiers 1 through 4 aren't to difficult to come by, but to get tier 5 fish, more research and an understanding of the system is required to be successful. It's possible to catch a legendary fish without meeting all bonuses and hitting a great random roll, but you'll have a much easier time if you can meet 3 of the 4 bonus criteria.

There is a seasonal bonus, it's better to fish in the spring and summer. Fall is neutral. Winter has a penalty. (Given seasons aren't the same across the world, these seasons are reflected on the United States.)

There are bonuses to fishing during certain hours of the day; it's not random. It also doesn't look at time zones, it's just a generic time of day that is the best time to fish.

There are bonuses for the area (is it a good/hot spot). This is another aspect to discover on your own. This also applies to catching lobsters.

The lure has a bonus as long as it's used in the right depth of water. If you catch a tier 5 fish, you used the lure at the right depths.

Then there is just a random element entirely for those that don't know what they are doing.

===Reeling it in===
Once the fish is on your line, there are a new set of checks.

The only stat that is used is [[Strength]].

The fish's strength is determined by the phase you're in. Did you just catch it? Is it wearing down? A fish just hooked is strong. Bigger fish are harder to catch from having an inherited strength bonus.

There are some random elements to both the fisherman and the fish here as well. Think of these as "critical catches." But it also helps those who don't have strength or aren't waiting to tire the fish out.

=== Snapping a line ===
Too much slack is a huge penalty and will result in a warning message. Learn what is good enough.

Reeling in too early has a bigger chance to snap a line.

Leaving the fish on the line longer tires the fish out, but it also weakens the line.

===The catch===
The fish that was caught on the line was determined at first bite. There are 5 tiers of rarity for fish. There are 3 depths. Each depth has the 5 tiers.

Fishing now tracks total fish caught, as well as which tier it came from.

== Cooking==
Caught fish can be cut into fillets using {{boldmono|[[CUT (verb)|CUT]] MY FISH WITH MY <WEAPON>}}. Heavier fish may produce more than one fillet. These fillets can then be cooked over a suitable fire or as an ingredient in the various [[:Category:Cooking system|cooking]] craft systems. See the below table for information on the locations of cooking fires.

==Artisan Fishing System==
Artisan Fishing is a system released by GM Auchand in December 2025. The system introduces a new style of fishing and is currently an additional option as opposed to a replacement for the Legacy Fishing System. It is '''not''' part of the [[Artisan skill|Artisan Skill]] system and will not count towards max Artisan Skill ranks. Additionally, artisan Fishing does not provide [[EXPERIENCE|EXP]].

=== The Basics ===
Artisan fishing currently uses the same equipment as the Legacy Fishing System. Use the [[FISH]] verb to begin. Catching fish, reeling, and filleting fish will increase your fishing skill level. Fish will appear with far more frequency compared to legacy fishing, but the reeling process may last much longer, sometimes ten minutes or more. Artisan fishing allows players to potentially catch fish in the 200-300lb range with frequency. If done correctly, line snaps should be rare.

=== Casting Distance ===
When casting a line, you can select FISH CAST NEAR, MIDDLE, or FAR. This is a risk/reward system with the further distances being more difficult to reel but potentially more rewarding with larger or rarer fish. It is recommended to select NEAR until several fishing skill level ranks are earned.

=== Reeling Success Factors ===
When reeling fish, a roll is made to reel the fish closer (success = rolls 100 or higher), and the fish makes a roll to try and swim further away. The goal is to reduce the distance to zero before the line snaps. Factors contributing to roll success include:

* Fishing skill level
* Size of fish (with larger fish being more difficult to reel in)
* Some fishing perks when activated
* Distance from shore or dock: since the goal is to reduce the distance to zero, casting line to further distances will be more difficult.

Unlike legacy fishing, the strength stat is not a factor in reeling success.

=== Fishing Line ===
Fishing line quality is of the utmost importance. Fishing line integrity degrades over time, and it is recommended to LOOK ROD before each cast. Fishing line will degrade in the following stages: Excellent - Decent - Showing signs of use - Frayed and in danger of snapping soon. Once the line has degraded, use CUT MY ROD to replace the line.

Fishing lines are sold in various quality levels. LOOK at fishing line to determine its quality levels, which include:

* Exceptionally Strong
* Quite sturdy and strong
* Decently strong

It is recommended to only use exceptionally strong line, as it will degrade much slower thus providing a higher chance of a successful catch. Exceptional quality fishing line is available [[Flimgrimy's Fishing Finds]] in Mist Harbor (purchase a spool of thin wire).

=== Filleting Fish ===
Fish can be filleted using CUT MY <FISH> WITH MY <WEAPON>, but a skill check is required to produce a successful fillet. Factors impacting fillet success include:

* Fishing skill level
* Weapon type, with a dagger style weapon increasing success.
* Weapon description: the KNIFE noun and FILLET adjectives provide a bonus.
* Weapon enchant level provides a bonus, with a 10x enchant providing the greatest bonus.
Therefore, a 10x dagger style weapon with the description of "fillet knife" will provide the greatest bonus.

=== Fishing Perks ===
Fishing perks are granted as skill level increases. Perks are available under the [[FISH PERK]] verb and include:

# Fishbane: Fish stamina falls faster when pulling in a line or struggling against a fish.
# Reel Expertise: Pulling in a line or struggling against a fish strains your fishing line less.
# Angler's Eye: You will see additional information when using FISH SENSE.
# Lucky Lure: You have an increased chance to find higher quality fish.
# Goliath Seeker: Your catches have an increased chance to be heavier.
# Deft Knife: You have an increased chance to successfully fillet fish.

One perk slot is awarded at fishing level 10, with an additional slot awarded at 25.

==Legacy Fishing System ==
The original fishing system involved manipulating [[fishing equipment]] as the means of catching fish at designated fishing locations.
=== Bonus checks===
The first set of checks determine the rarity of fish. There are 5 tiers of rarity:
#Common
#Uncommon
#Rare
#Very rare
#Legendary

Tiers 1 through 4 aren't to difficult to come by, but to get tier 5 fish, more research and an understanding of the system is required to be successful. It's possible to catch a legendary fish without meeting all bonuses and hitting a great random roll, but you'll have a much easier time if you can meet 3 of the 4 bonus criteria.

There is a seasonal bonus, it's better to fish in the spring and summer. Fall is neutral. Winter has a penalty. (Given seasons aren't the same across the world, these seasons are reflected on the United States.)

There are bonuses to fishing during certain hours of the day; it's not random. It also doesn't look at time zones, it's just a generic time of day that is the best time to fish.

There are bonuses for the area (is it a good/hot spot). This is another aspect to discover on your own. This also applies to catching lobsters.

The lure has a bonus as long as it's used in the right depth of water. If you catch a tier 5 fish, you used the lure at the right depths.

Then there is just a random element entirely for those that don't know what they are doing.

===Reeling it in===
Once the fish is on your line, there are a new set of checks.

The only stat that is used is [[Strength]].

The fish's strength is determined by the phase you're in. Did you just catch it? Is it wearing down? A fish just hooked is strong. Bigger fish are harder to catch from having an inherited strength bonus.

There are some random elements to both the fisherman and the fish here as well. Think of these as "critical catches." But it also helps those who don't have strength or aren't waiting to tire the fish out.

=== Snapping a line ===
Too much slack is a huge penalty and will result in a warning message. Learn what is good enough.

Reeling in too early has a bigger chance to snap a line.

Leaving the fish on the line longer tires the fish out, but it also weakens the line.

===The catch===
The fish that was caught on the line was determined at first bite. There are 5 tiers of rarity for fish. There are 3 depths. Each depth has the 5 tiers.

Fishing now tracks total fish caught, as well as which tier it came from.

== Cooking==
Caught fish can be cut into fillets using {{boldmono|[[CUT (verb)|CUT]] MY FISH WITH MY <WEAPON>}}. Heavier fish may produce more than one fillet. These fillets can then be cooked over a suitable fire or as an ingredient in the various [[:Category:Cooking system|cooking]] craft systems. See the below table for information on the locations of cooking fires.

Fishing

2025-12-11T16:01:49Z

MAYLAN: /* New Fishing System */ Added what I know about the basics of Artisan fishing, although this is a work in progress and I plan to pad it out ASAP.

<div class="alert alert-danger" style="text-align:center">'''The fishing system underwent a comprehensive overhaul in December 2025. Information on this article may be out of date.<br>For full information, see the [https://discord.com/channels/226045346399256576/1436963553469923432 Official Artisan Fishing Discord post].'''</div> 
{{TOCright}}
'''Fishing''' is a popular pastime in [[Elanthia]].

==Equipment==
The cost of [[fishing equipment]] varies depending on material, design, quality, and quantity. See the [[:Category: Fishing shops|Fishing Shops category]] for inventory.

![[Fishing equipment#Fishing Rod|Rod]]
|All fishing rods are equal. {{boldmono|[[RAISE (verb)|RAISE]]}} (far), {{boldmono|[[WAVE (verb)|WAVE]]}} (medium distance), or {{boldmono|[[PUSH (verb)|PUSH]]}} (very close) the rod to cast at different lengths. {{boldmono|[[PULL (verb)|PULL]]}} the rod to reel it in.

![[Fishing equipment#Line|Line]]
|More expensive fishing line lasts longer. When your line breaks, the lures and bait that tied to it are lost. {{boldmono|[[PULL (verb)|PULL]]}} the spool to remove line, then {{boldmono|[[PUT (verb)|PUT]]}} the line on the rod.
|-
![[Fishing equipment#Sinker|Sinkers]]
|Weights come in two sizes. Tiny weights are for middle depths, while small weights are better for bottom depths. No weight is needed for surface fishing. {{boldmono|[[PUT (verb)]]}} the weight on the rod.
|-
![[Fishing equipment#Lure|Lures]]
|There are three basic types of lures and bait, each type geared toward bottom, mid-depth, or surface fishing. {{boldmono|[[PUT (verb)|PUT]]}} the lure on the rod.
|-
!Chests
|The [[rhimar]] chests preserve the caught fish. Without a chest, the fish goes bad or escapes.
|-
!Additional Gear
|The [[Super-Fish-All Tackle Box]] is a multi-purpose container that serves as an "-inator" to store lures, weights, and lines, plus, at higher unlocks, serve as a rhimar chest to weightlessly preserve caught live fish.

==Artisan Fishing System==
Artisan Fishing is a system released by GM Auchand in December 2025. The system introduces a new style of fishing and is currently an additional option as opposed to a replacement for the Legacy Fishing System.

=== The Basics ===
Artisan fishing currently uses the same equipment as the Legacy Fishing System. Use the [[FISH]] verb to begin. Catching fish, reeling, and filleting fish will increase your fishing skill level. Fish will appear with far more frequency compared to legacy fishing, but the reeling process may last much longer, sometimes ten minutes or more. Artisan fishing allows players to potentially catch fish in the 200-300lb range with frequency. If done correctly, line snaps should be rare.

=== Casting Distance ===
When casting a line, you can select FISH CAST NEAR, MIDDLE, or FAR. This is a risk/reward system with the further distances being more difficult to reel but potentially more rewarding with larger or rarer fish. It is recommended to select NEAR until several fishing skill level ranks are earned.

=== Reeling Success Factors ===
When reeling fish, a roll is made to reel the fish closer (success = rolls 100 or higher), and the fish makes a roll to try and swim further away. The goal is to reduce the distance to zero before the line snaps. Factors contributing to roll success include:

* Fishing skill level
* Size of fish (with larger fish being more difficult to reel in)
* Some fishing perks when activated

Unlike legacy fishing, the strength stat is not a factor in reeling success.

=== Fishing Line ===
Fishing line quality is of the utmost importance. Fishing line integrity degrades over time, and it is recommended to LOOK ROD before each cast. Fishing line will degrade in the following stages: Excellent - Decent - Showing signs of use - Frayed and in danger of snapping soon. Once the line has degraded, use CUT MY ROD to replace the line.

Fishing lines are sold in various quality levels. LOOK at fishing line to determine its quality levels, which include:

* Exceptionally Strong
* Quite sturdy and strong
* Decently strong

It is recommended to only use exceptionally strong line, as it will degrade much slower thus providing a higher chance of a successful catch. Exceptional quality fishing line is available [[Flimgrimy's Fishing Finds]] in Mist Harbor (purchase a spool of thin wire).

=== Filleting Fish ===
Fish can be filleted using CUT MY <FISH> WITH MY <WEAPON>, but a skill check is required to produce a successful fillet. Factors impacting fillet success include:

* Fishing skill level
* Weapon type, with a dagger style weapon increasing success.
* Weapon description: the KNIFE noun and FILLET adjectives provide a bonus. Therefore, a dagger style weapon with the description of "fillet knife" will provide the greatest bonus.
* Weapon enchant level provides a bonus, with a 10x enchant providing the greatest bonus.

==Legacy Fishing System ==
The original fishing system involved manipulating [[fishing equipment]] as the means of catching fish at designated fishing locations.
=== Bonus checks===
The first set of checks determine the rarity of fish. There are 5 tiers of rarity:
#Common
#Uncommon
#Rare
#Very rare
#Legendary

Tiers 1 through 4 aren't to difficult to come by, but to get tier 5 fish, more research and an understanding of the system is required to be successful. It's possible to catch a legendary fish without meeting all bonuses and hitting a great random roll, but you'll have a much easier time if you can meet 3 of the 4 bonus criteria.

There is a seasonal bonus, it's better to fish in the spring and summer. Fall is neutral. Winter has a penalty. (Given seasons aren't the same across the world, these seasons are reflected on the United States.)

There are bonuses to fishing during certain hours of the day; it's not random. It also doesn't look at time zones, it's just a generic time of day that is the best time to fish.

There are bonuses for the area (is it a good/hot spot). This is another aspect to discover on your own. This also applies to catching lobsters.

The lure has a bonus as long as it's used in the right depth of water. If you catch a tier 5 fish, you used the lure at the right depths.

Then there is just a random element entirely for those that don't know what they are doing.

===Reeling it in===
Once the fish is on your line, there are a new set of checks.

The only stat that is used is [[Strength]].

The fish's strength is determined by the phase you're in. Did you just catch it? Is it wearing down? A fish just hooked is strong. Bigger fish are harder to catch from having an inherited strength bonus.

There are some random elements to both the fisherman and the fish here as well. Think of these as "critical catches." But it also helps those who don't have strength or aren't waiting to tire the fish out.

=== Snapping a line ===
Too much slack is a huge penalty and will result in a warning message. Learn what is good enough.

Reeling in too early has a bigger chance to snap a line.

Leaving the fish on the line longer tires the fish out, but it also weakens the line.

===The catch===
The fish that was caught on the line was determined at first bite. There are 5 tiers of rarity for fish. There are 3 depths. Each depth has the 5 tiers.

Fishing now tracks total fish caught, as well as which tier it came from.

== Cooking==
Caught fish can be cut into fillets using {{boldmono|[[CUT (verb)|CUT]] MY FISH WITH MY <WEAPON>}}. Heavier fish may produce more than one fillet. These fillets can then be cooked over a suitable fire. See the below table for information on the locations of cooking fires.

==Frequently Asked Questions==
===How much does SimuCon cost?===
Attendance badges have previously cost $40 when purchased in advance. Tickets are available at the door, but will be more expensive. Please see the [[#Ticketing|Ticketing]] section for more details.

=== Where do I sign up?===

Ticketing will likely be handled via the play.net Box Office when available. Please see the [[#Ticketing|Ticketing]] section for more details.

===Who organizes SimuCon?===

Typically GameMasters from Gemstone IV and DragonRealms are the official organizers. However, many players pitch in to plan unofficial events or to offer support. All work is strictly volunteer, so please be sure to thank your organizer team!

===What is it like to attend a SimuCon?===

SimuCon is a gathering of players and GameMasters for Simutronics games, including Gemstone IV and DragonRealms. The convention includes several events, as listed in the [[#2025 Schedule|2025 Schedule]], that are planned by both players and staff. In-between events, attendees typically gather at conference tables similar to a large LAN party to play. Board games and other activities are frequently available as well.

===How many people attend SimuCon and when do they show up?===

SimuCon has experienced a growth spurt over the past three years or so. A current rough estimate would be 100 attendees (GS and DR combined) over the course of the weekend. The main convention days are Thursday through Sunday, although several people arrive on Wednesday and stay through Monday. The convention room is typically setup by Wednesday evening.

===What equipment should I bring? ===

Bring your laptop/computer so that you can play Gemstone during the convention. Internet access and power strips are typically provided. '''Note:''' It is not recommended that you leave your equipment unattended in the conference room.

===Will I need a car?===

Many attendees never leave the hotel. However if you are planning to explore St. Louis, a car is recommended as public transportation options are slim. Lyft and Uber are both operational in St. Louis and are ideal for single trips. For any excursions listed in the schedule, carpool options may be available. A shuttle may be available to and from your hotel for airport travel, but don't forget to bring cash for a tip!

===Is SimuCon family friendly?===

In general, yes. Some attendees do bring children but activities in the convention room may be of limited interest to them. Note the [[#Attractions|Attractions]] section listed below for additional kid-friendly activities available in St. Louis. Please expect to encounter explicit language and consumption of alcoholic beverages, which will increase in the late night hours.

===What is the weather typically like?===

Missouri is nicknamed "Misery" for its hot and humid summers. For a current local forecast, click here: https://www.ksdk.com/weather

===Do I need to bring food or beverages?===

Depending on funds available, basic snacks will be provided. You are generally on your own for meals and can purchase food at the grocery or restaurant options listed in the [[#Dining.2FEating|Dining/Eating]] section. SimuCon is strictly BYOB. Alcohol can be purchased in most grocery stores and gas stations in Missouri.

===What should I wear?===

SimuCon is casual attire unless the schedule for a specific event indicates otherwise. Some events may encourage costumes or themed attire.

=== Is there a pool?===

YES, pack your bathing suit! The Sheraton Westport Plaza has an indoor pool, and their sister property the Sheraton Westport Chalet has an outdoor pool. The Chalet's outdoor pool is very close and is a popular day time destination for attendees. All facilities at both hotels are available to any guest staying at either hotel. There is even a poolside bar with snacks and beverages (open Friday through Sunday), and towel service is available. It is recommended that you pack sunscreen ahead of time, because the hotel and nearby shops do not stock any. It is also recommended that you bring pool noodles, because pool noodles are wicked cool.

==Visitor Information==
The convention is typically held in the St. Louis area, home of Simutronic's headquarters. While the host hotel may very, it is usually held at one of the many convention spaces at or near the Westport Plaza. For specific details on the official hotel, please see the below accommodations list. Also below are some nearby shops and other information for visitors.

==About Cairnfang Manor==
====History====
Founded in 2003, Cairnfang Manor was one of the original Player Hall Organizations. It transitioned to a Meeting Hall Organization in 2007 alongside the other PROs. On April 3, 2011, Cairnfang Manor became the newest member of the Cooperative Houses of Elanthia.
====Statement of Purpose====
As our pledge reminds us, our mission is three fold. Unhindered thinking reflects the ability to think clearly and act without prejudice of race, religious affiliation, or profession. Our hands to the community, indicates the work we do to make Solhaven a place where both the young and the aged are served to make life better for all. Our spirits to greater loyalty means we do everything within our power to promote our beloved Solhaven for the good of all, not just the individual or a certain group. We use our minds, talents, and hearts towards a better Solhaven.

<b>[[/Charter|Cairnfang Manor Charter and By-Laws]]</b>
====Symbols====
:<b>Flag: a Cairnfang Manor banner</b>
Framed by long brilliant peacock feathers is a billowing silk banner emblazoned with a royal blue star and an opalescent flame resting in an open hand. As light catches the material of the flame, it reflects a myriad of colors. The words Intellect, Flame, and Spirit are stitched on three of the sides. Carefully stitched below the star in the most eye-catching thread and in flowing script are the words, "Cairnfang Manor."

:<b>Pin: a golden gemstone-set triad</b>
Cut into the image of an open hand is a sparkling diamond, its palm inlaid with a fiery ruby and scribed with the word, "Flame." Beside it is a sapphire shard in the shape of a slender banner inlaid with a silver star and the word, "Intellect." The final gem of this triad is a vibrant peacock feather cut from a multi-hued stone set with an emerald eye. Gold foil fills the word, "Spirit" etched along the length of the shaft. Each of the carved gems is secured with thin golden bands to a wide metal pin.
====Meetings====
Cairnfang Manor's monthly meeting is held on the second Restday of every month at 8pm EST. The meetings are held in the Cairnfang Manor Meeting Room. Monthly meetings are open to the public; non-members interested in attending may request an escort from a current member or via the Realm ESP channel while in Solhaven.

==Events==
Cairnfang Manor hosts three festivals each year. Songie, who was instrumental in founding Cairnfang Manor, hosted several events in Solhaven shortly after it opened up at the end of 1998. Some of those events are the foundation of current Cairnfang Manor festivals and traditions.

The first Snowball was hosted by Songie just after Solhaven opened up its trade routes to Wehnimer's Landing at the end of 5098, in the winter of early 5099. It became an annual tradition in Solhaven, and eventually Cairnfang Manor expanded beyond it to what is now [[#Winternights|Winternights]] in 5112. Winternights celebrates the community of Solhaven and invites all Solhaven organizations to participate.

The first [[#Solhaven Grand Art Exhibit|Solhaven Grand Art Exhibit]] was also hosted by Songie in late 5100, under the name of the Solhaven Academy of Art Grande Exhibit. Several years later, Cairnfang Manor resurrected the event under its new name, the Solhaven Grand Art Exhibit, and has been its formal host since. In 5119, the first additional workshop was introduced to the Art Exhibit, expanding it beyond the central judging event. The Grand Art Exhibit partners with a wide variety organizations that are willing to focus on the visual arts.

The first [[#Seafarer's Festival|Seafarer's Festival]] was hosted by Cairnfang Manor in 5103, shortly after it was officially recognized as an organization. As the Manor's flagship festival, Cairnfang Manor takes the lead on events during it while partnering with other organizations that have ties to the seafaring community.

===House Hunts===
On the third Restday (Sunday) of every month, Cairnfang Manor organizes a monthly hunt for house members and non-members alike. The hunt begins in North Market at 10pm EST, after which the location and target of the hunt will be chosen based on the skill level of that month's attendees. Spells and bounty tasks are shared among those attending.

==Solhaven Grand Art Exhibit==
The 2025 Solhaven Grand Art Exhibit will run May 7 through May 13.

The first Solhaven Grand Art Exhibit was held in 5100 by the Lady Songie Fillee. The event was intended to celebrate art as well as the community of Solhaven, which had recently reopened trade with the northern frontier. Songie later established Cairnfang Manor and was its first Chairwoman, spearheading efforts to foster the rapidly growing community by her own actions. Cairnfang Manor gladly continues this now-annual tradition of the Solhaven Grand Art Exhibit, showcasing works from artists across Elanthia while partnering with other organizations to run workshop events throughout the weeklong exhibit.

The theme of this year's Solhaven Grand Art Exhibit focuses on what '''Home Is...'''

Home can mean many different things depending on the context. Home is a place, or a time, or even a special group of people chosen to be as family. For those artists pursuing an adventuring lifestyle, home is often a respite - a place to rest, recover, and find rejuvenation before their next escapade or their next great work. For some, home is in the past, which has slipped by like the sands of time. For others, it is in the future, a hope or a dream of what might be. And for others still, home is the community that they have built alongside others, a shared vision carefully painted unto reality. The Solhaven Grand Art Exhibit looks homeward this year, and it invites artists across Elanthia to share just what ''Home Is...'' to each and every one.

====Submission Information====
Paintings, drawings, sculptures, and any other physical artwork are acceptable. (Poetry, writing, performances, etc. should be saved for other performance-based events.) The pieces submitted will be judged upon their subject matter, creativity, overall presentation, and relevancy to the Exhibit's theme, so choose something that is of interest to you and give it your all! While subject matter lies in the hands of the creator, we ask that submissions be suitable for viewing by audiences of mixed ages.

All artwork must be submitted in a manner that follows standard {{boldmono|ALTER}} guidelines: 15/15/15 to describe the piece (i.e. a carved,linden-framed,painting), plus a show description for the artwork being displayed taking up no more than 511 characters, including punctuation and double spaces between sentences. An additional long description for the artwork is optional and should be kept fairly short if included. This will ensure all items follow a standard pattern and make for ease in displaying them. In addition, please include the full name of the artist submitting the work as well as a title, if it has one; the artist's name and title do NOT need to be part of the artwork's show description.

Any artwork that does not follow these rules will not be displayed. Some artwork may have minor changes prior to display per QC. See [https://www.sphericalowl.com/gs/alterations.html Owly's Super Useful GemStoneIV Alteration Template] for formatting guidance. Artwork may be preserved as part of Cairnfang Manor's archives on the wiki.

'''Submission Example:'''
<pre{{log2}}>
a linden-framed,charcoal,portrait
Perfectly shaped linden blossoms have been etched into a light-toned frame surrounding a simple group portrait. A small scene of a group of adventures standing by a linden tree has been lovingly rendered in charcoal on smooth paper. The design of the sketch is rather crude and rough by most standards, however certain details of the group are meticulously rendered. It is clear that they are of different races, ages, and come from many walks of life.

All pieces of artwork should be submitted to cairnfangmanor@gmail.com by no later than end of day on '''Friday, March 21, 2025'''. When submitting your piece, please make sure the subject mentions Art Exhibit, that you list the name of the artist submitting the piece, the title of the piece, and the full text description of the artwork. Multiple submissions by a single person (character OR player) are not allowed. Any questions can be sent to the same email address.

Artwork will go on display in Solhaven starting with the Exhibit's Opening Ceremony event and lasting for a full week. Winners will be announced at the Exhibit's Best in Show Awards event. Prizes are awarded to the Best in Show, Second Place, and Third Place entries.

===Ursine Emporium, Back Room===
{{RoomDescription|
|roomname=Ursine Emporium, Back Room
|desc=Partitioned by a drape of heavy violet canvas, the backroom is quieter than the entry room of the shop, its corners touched by the steady glow of low-burning lamps. Niveous shelves line the walls, holding spools of dyed leather, bolts of thick fabric, and shallow trays filled with polished metal fittings. A central worktable bears signs of recent use, with chalk markings, loose threads, and measuring cords strewn across its surface. The air carries the scent of wax, wool, and well-oiled hide.

* The Nautilograph Array handles sea creature patterns.
* Other forms may be sourced from Fizwixit's pile.**

FLIP the cookbook - return the recipe book to the first stored recipe card
GLANCE at the cookbook - review the table of contents for a bread loaf-motif cookbook
READ the cookbook - read a recipe stored within a bread loaf-motif cookbook
PEER the cookbook - opens a cooking dialog window to read the recipe
TEAR the cookbook - remove the current recipe stored within a bread loaf-motif cookbook
TURN the cookbook - advance to a bread loaf-motif cookbook to the next stored recipe card

Please Note: The cookbook must be open when performing the above tasks.

You may alter the cookbook provide it remains a type of book.

==Frequently Asked Questions==
===How much does SimuCon cost?===
Attendance badges cost $40 when purchased in advance. Tickets are available at the door, but will be more expensive. Please see the [[#Ticketing|Ticketing]] section for more details.

=== Where do I sign up?===

Ticketing will likely be handled via the play.net Box Office when available. Please see the [[#Ticketing|Ticketing]] section for more details.

===Who organizes SimuCon?===

Typically GameMasters from Gemstone IV and DragonRealms are the official organizers. However, many players pitch in to plan unofficial events or to offer support. All work is strictly volunteer, so please be sure to thank your organizer team!

===What is it like to attend a SimuCon?===

SimuCon is a gathering of players and GameMasters for Simutronics games, including Gemstone IV and DragonRealms. The convention includes several events, as listed in the [[#2024 Schedule|2024 Schedule]], that are planned by both players and staff. In-between events, attendees typically gather at conference tables similar to a large LAN party to play. Board games and other activities are frequently available as well.

===How many people attend SimuCon and when do they show up?===

SimuCon has experienced a growth spurt over the past three years or so. A current rough estimate would be 100 attendees (GS and DR combined) over the course of the weekend. The main convention days are Thursday through Sunday, although several people arrive on Wednesday and stay through Monday. The convention room is typically setup by Wednesday evening.

===What equipment should I bring? ===

Bring your laptop/computer so that you can play Gemstone during the convention. Internet access and power strips are typically provided. '''Note:''' It is not recommended that you leave your equipment unattended in the conference room.

===Will I need a car?===

Many attendees never leave the hotel. However if you are planning to explore St. Louis, a car is recommended as public transportation options are slim. Lyft and Uber are both operational in St. Louis and are ideal for single trips. For any excursions listed in the schedule, carpool options may be available. A shuttle may be available to and from your hotel for airport travel, but don't forget to bring cash for a tip!

===Is SimuCon family friendly?===

In general, yes. Some attendees do bring children but activities in the convention room may be of limited interest to them. Note the [[#Attractions|Attractions]] section listed below for additional kid-friendly activities available in St. Louis. Please expect to encounter explicit language and consumption of alcoholic beverages, which will increase in the late night hours.

===What is the weather typically like?===

Missouri is nicknamed "Misery" for its hot and humid summers. For a current local forecast, click here: https://www.ksdk.com/weather

===Do I need to bring food or beverages?===

Depending on funds available, basic snacks will be provided. You are generally on your own for meals and can purchase food at the grocery or restaurant options listed in the [[#Dining.2FEating|Dining/Eating]] section. SimuCon is strictly BYOB. Alcohol can be purchased in most grocery stores and gas stations in Missouri.

===What should I wear?===

SimuCon is casual attire unless the schedule for a specific event indicates otherwise. Some events may encourage costumes or themed attire.

=== Is there a pool?===

YES, pack your bathing suit! The Sheraton Westport Plaza has an indoor pool, and their sister property the Sheraton Westport Chalet has an outdoor pool. The Chalet's outdoor pool is very close and is a popular day time destination for attendees. All facilities at both hotels are available to any guest staying at either hotel. There is even a poolside bar with snacks and beverages (open Friday through Sunday), and towel service is available. It is recommended that you pack sunscreen ahead of time, because the hotel and nearby shops do not stock any. It is also recommended that you bring pool noodles, because pool noodles are wicked cool.

==Visitor Information==

While the host hotel may very, it is usually held at one of the many convention spaces at or near the Westport Plaza.

==Frequently Asked Questions==
===How much does SimuCon cost?===
Attendance badges cost $40 when purchased in advance. Tickets are available at the door, but will be more expensive. Please see the [[#Ticketing|Ticketing]] section for more details.

=== Where do I sign up?===

Ticketing will likely be handled via the play.net Box Office when available. Please see the [[#Ticketing|Ticketing]] section for more details.

===Who organizes SimuCon?===

Typically GameMasters from Gemstone IV and DragonRealms are the official organizers. However, many players pitch in to plan unofficial events or to offer support. All work is strictly volunteer, so please be sure to thank your organizer team!

===What is it like to attend a SimuCon?===

SimuCon is a gathering of players and GameMasters for Simutronics games, including Gemstone IV and DragonRealms. The convention includes several events, as listed in the [[#2024 Schedule|2024 Schedule]], that are planned by both players and staff. In-between events, attendees typically gather at conference tables similar to a large LAN party to play. Board games and other activities are frequently available as well.

===How many people attend SimuCon and when do they show up?===

SimuCon has experienced a growth spurt over the past three years or so. A current rough estimate would be 100 attendees (GS and DR combined) over the course of the weekend. The main convention days are Thursday through Sunday, although several people arrive on Wednesday and stay through Monday. The convention room is typically setup by Wednesday evening.

===What equipment should I bring? ===

Bring your laptop/computer so that you can play Gemstone during the convention. Internet access and power strips are typically provided. '''Note:''' It is not recommended that you leave your equipment unattended in the conference room.

===Will I need a car?===

Many attendees never leave the hotel. However if you are planning to explore St. Louis, a car is recommended as public transportation options are slim. Lyft and Uber are both operational in St. Louis and are ideal for single trips. For any excursions listed in the schedule, carpool options may be available. A shuttle may be available to and from your hotel for airport travel, but don't forget to bring cash for a tip!

===Is SimuCon family friendly?===

In general, yes. Some attendees do bring children but activities in the convention room may be of limited interest to them. Note the [[#Attractions|Attractions]] section listed below for additional kid-friendly activities available in St. Louis. Please expect to encounter explicit language and consumption of alcoholic beverages, which will increase in the late night hours.

===What is the weather typically like?===

Missouri is nicknamed "Misery" for its hot and humid summers. For a current local forecast, click here: https://www.ksdk.com/weather

===Do I need to bring food or beverages?===

Depending on funds available, basic snacks will be provided. You are generally on your own for meals and can purchase food at the grocery or restaurant options listed in the [[#Dining.2FEating|Dining/Eating]] section. SimuCon is strictly BYOB. Alcohol can be purchased in most grocery stores and gas stations in Missouri.

===What should I wear?===

SimuCon is casual attire unless the schedule for a specific event indicates otherwise. Some events may encourage costumes or themed attire.

=== Is there a pool?===

YES, pack your bathing suit! The Sheraton Westport Plaza has an indoor pool, and their sister property the Sheraton Westport Chalet has an outdoor pool. The Chalet's outdoor pool is very close and is a popular day time destination for attendees. All facilities at both hotels are available to any guest staying at either hotel. There is even a poolside bar with snacks and beverages (open Friday through Sunday), and towel service is available. It is recommended that you pack sunscreen ahead of time, because the hotel and nearby shops do not stock any. It is also recommended that you bring pool noodles, because pool noodles are wicked cool.

==Visitor Information==
The convention is typically held in the St. Louis area, home of Simutronic's headquarters. While the host hotel may very, it is usually held at one of the many convention spaces at or near the Westport Plaza. For specific details on the official hotel, please see the below accommodations list. Also below are some nearby shops and other information for visitors.

==Frequently Asked Questions==
===How much does SimuCon cost?===
Attendance badges cost $40. Please see the [[#Ticketing|Ticketing]] section for more details.

=== Where do I sign up?===

Ticketing will likely be handled via the play.net Box Office when available. Please see the [[#Ticketing|Ticketing]] section for more details.

===Who organizes SimuCon?===

Typically GameMasters from Gemstone IV and DragonRealms are the official organizers. However, many players pitch in to plan unofficial events or to offer support. All work is strictly volunteer, so please be sure to thank your organizer team!

===What is it like to attend a SimuCon?===

SimuCon is a gathering of players and GameMasters for Simutronics games, including Gemstone IV and DragonRealms. The convention includes several events, as listed in the [[#2024 Schedule|2024 Schedule]], that are planned by both players and staff. In-between events, attendees typically gather at conference tables similar to a large LAN party to play. Board games and other activities are frequently available as well.

===How many people attend SimuCon and when do they show up?===

SimuCon has experienced a growth spurt over the past three years or so. A current rough estimate would be 100 attendees (GS and DR combined) over the course of the weekend. The main convention days are Thursday through Sunday, although several people arrive on Wednesday and stay through Monday. The convention room is typically setup by Wednesday evening.

===What equipment should I bring? ===

Bring your laptop/computer so that you can play Gemstone during the convention. Internet access and power strips are typically provided. '''Note:''' It is not recommended that you leave your equipment unattended in the conference room.

===Will I need a car?===

Many attendees never leave the hotel. However if you are planning to explore St. Louis, a car is recommended as public transportation options are slim. Lyft and Uber are both operational in St. Louis and are ideal for single trips. For any excursions listed in the schedule, carpool options may be available. A shuttle may be available to and from your hotel for airport travel, but don't forget to bring cash for a tip!

===Is SimuCon family friendly?===

In general, yes. Some attendees do bring children but activities in the convention room may be of limited interest to them. Note the [[#Attractions|Attractions]] section listed below for additional kid-friendly activities available in St. Louis. Please expect to encounter explicit language and consumption of alcoholic beverages, which will increase in the late night hours.

===What is the weather typically like?===

Missouri is nicknamed "Misery" for its hot and humid summers. For a current local forecast, click here: https://www.ksdk.com/weather

===Do I need to bring food or beverages?===

Depending on funds available, basic snacks will be provided. You are generally on your own for meals and can purchase food at the grocery or restaurant options listed in the [[#Dining.2FEating|Dining/Eating]] section. SimuCon is strictly BYOB. Alcohol can be purchased in most grocery stores and gas stations in Missouri.

===What should I wear?===

SimuCon is casual attire unless the schedule for a specific event indicates otherwise. Some events may encourage costumes or themed attire.

=== Is there a pool?===

YES, pack your bathing suit! The Sheraton Westport Plaza has an indoor pool, and their sister property the Sheraton Westport Chalet has an outdoor pool. The Chalet's outdoor pool is very close and is a popular day time destination for attendees. All facilities at both hotels are available to any guest staying at either hotel. There is even a poolside bar with snacks and beverages (open Friday through Sunday), and towel service is available. It is recommended that you pack sunscreen ahead of time, because the hotel and nearby shops do not stock any. It is also recommended that you bring pool noodles, because pool noodles are wicked cool.

==Visitor Information==
The convention is typically held in the St. Louis area, home of Simutronic's headquarters. While the host hotel may very, it is usually held at one of the many convention spaces at or near the Westport Plaza. For specific details on the official hotel, please see the below accommodations list. Also below are some nearby shops and other information for visitors.

==Frequently Asked Questions==
===How much does SimuCon cost?===
Attendance badges cost $40. Please see the [[#Ticketing|Ticketing]] section for more details.

=== Where do I sign up?===

Ticketing will likely be handled via the play.net Box Office when available. Please see the [[#Ticketing|Ticketing]] section for more details.

===Who organizes SimuCon?===

Typically GameMasters from Gemstone IV and DragonRealms are the official organizers. However, many players pitch in to plan unofficial events or to offer support. All work is strictly volunteer, so please be sure to thank your organizer team!

===What is it like to attend a SimuCon?===

SimuCon is a gathering of players and GameMasters for Simutronics games, including Gemstone IV and DragonRealms. The convention includes several events, as listed in the [[#2024 Schedule|2024 Schedule]], that are planned by both players and staff. In-between events, attendees typically gather at conference tables similar to a large LAN party to play. Board games and other activities are frequently available as well.

===How many people attend SimuCon and when do they show up?===

SimuCon has experienced a growth spurt over the past three years or so. A current rough estimate would be 100 attendees (GS and DR combined) over the course of the weekend. The main convention days are Thursday through Sunday, although several people arrive on Wednesday and stay through Monday. The convention room is typically setup by Wednesday evening.

===What equipment should I bring? ===

Bring your laptop/computer so that you can play Gemstone during the convention. Internet access and power strips are typically provided. '''Note:''' It is not recommended that you leave your equipment unattended in the conference room.

===Will I need a car?===

Many attendees never leave the hotel. However if you are planning to explore St. Louis, a car is recommended as public transportation options are slim. Lyft and Uber are both operational in St. Louis and are ideal for single trips. For any excursions listed in the schedule, carpool options may be available. A shuttle may be available to and from your hotel for airport travel, but don't forget to bring cash for a tip!

===Is SimuCon family friendly?===

In general, yes. Some attendees do bring children but activities in the convention room may be of limited interest to them. Note the [[#Attractions|Attractions]] section listed below for additional kid-friendly activities available in St. Louis. Please expect to encounter explicit language and consumption of alcoholic beverages, which will increase in the late night hours.

===What is the weather typically like?===

Missouri is nicknamed "Misery" for its hot and humid summers. For a current local forecast, click here: https://www.ksdk.com/weather

===Do I need to bring food or beverages?===

Depending on funds available, basic snacks will be provided. You are generally on your own for meals and can purchase food at the grocery or restaurant options listed in the [[#Dining.2FEating|Dining/Eating]] section. SimuCon is strictly BYOB. Alcohol can be purchased in most grocery stores and gas stations in Missouri.

===What should I wear?===

SimuCon is casual attire unless the schedule for a specific event indicates otherwise. Some events may encourage costumes or themed attire.

=== Is there a pool?===

YES! Pack your bathing suits because the official SimuCon hotel has an outdoor pool! There is even a poolside bar with snacks and beverages (open Friday through Sunday), and towel service is available. It is recommended that you pack sunscreen ahead of time, because the hotel and nearby shops do not stock any! It is also recommended that you bring pool noodles, because pool noodles are wicked cool.

==Visitor Information==
The convention is typically held in the St. Louis area, home of Simutronic's headquarters. While the host hotel may very, it is usually held at one of the many convention spaces at or near the Westport Plaza. For specific details on the official hotel, please see the below accommodations list. Also below are some nearby shops and other information for visitors.

==Frequently Asked Questions==
===How much does SimuCon cost?===
Attendance badges cost $40. Please see the [[#Ticketing|Ticketing]] section for more details.

=== Where do I sign up?===

Ticketing will likely be handled via the play.net Box Office when available. Please see the [[#Ticketing|Ticketing]] section for more details.

===Who organizes SimuCon?===

Typically GameMasters from Gemstone IV and DragonRealms are the official organizers. However, many players pitch in to plan unofficial events or to offer support. All work is strictly volunteer, so please be sure to thank your organizer team!

===What is it like to attend a SimuCon?===

SimuCon is a gathering of players and GameMasters for Simutronics games, including Gemstone IV and DragonRealms. The convention includes several events, as listed in the [[#2024 Schedule|2024 Schedule]], that are planned by both players and staff. In-between events, attendees typically gather at conference tables similar to a large LAN party to play. Board games and other activities are frequently available as well.

===How many people attend SimuCon and when do they show up?===

SimuCon has experienced a growth spurt over the past three years or so. A current rough estimate would be 100 attendees (GS and DR combined) over the course of the weekend. The main convention days are Thursday through Sunday, although several people arrive on Wednesday and stay through Monday. The convention room is typically setup by Wednesday evening.

===What equipment should I bring? ===

Bring your laptop/computer so that you can play Gemstone during the convention. Internet access and power strips are typically provided. '''Note:''' It is not recommended that you leave your equipment unattended in the conference room.

===Will I need a car?===

Many attendees never leave the hotel. However if you are planning to explore St. Louis, a car is recommended as public transportation options are slim. Lyft and Uber are both operational in St. Louis and are ideal for single trips. For any excursions listed in the schedule, carpool options may be available. A shuttle may be available to and from your hotel for airport travel, but don't forget to bring cash for a tip!

===Is SimuCon family friendly?===

In general, yes. Some attendees do bring children but activities in the convention room may be of limited interest to them. Note the [[#Attractions|Attractions]] section listed below for additional kid-friendly activities available in St. Louis. Please expect to encounter explicit language and consumption of alcoholic beverages, which will increase in the late night hours.

===What is the weather typically like?===

Missouri is nicknamed "Misery" for its hot and humid summers. For a current local forecast, click here: https://www.ksdk.com/weather

===Do I need to bring food or beverages?===

Depending on funds available, basic snacks will be provided. You are generally on your own for meals and can purchase food at the grocery or restaurant options listed in the [[#Dining.2FEating|Dining/Eating]] section. SimuCon is strictly BYOB. Alcohol can be purchased in most grocery stores and gas stations in Missouri.

===What should I wear?===

SimuCon is casual attire unless the schedule for a specific event indicates otherwise. Some events may encourage costumes or themed attire.

=== Is there a pool?===

YES! Pack your bathing suits because the official SimuCon hotel has an outdoor pool! There is even a poolside bar with snacks and beverages (open Friday through Sunday), and towel service is available. It is recommended that you pack sunscreen ahead of time, because the hotel and nearby shops do not stock any! It is also recommended that you bring pool noodles, because pool noodles are wicked cool.

==Visitor Information==
The convention is typically held in the St. Louis area, home of Simutronic's headquarters. While the host hotel may very, it is usually held at one of the many convention spaces at or near the Westport Plaza. For specific details on the official hotel, please see the below accommodations list. Also below are some nearby shops and other information for visitors.

== Frequently Asked Questions==
===How much does SimuCon cost?===
Attendance badges cost $40. Please see the [[#Ticketing|Ticketing]] section for more details.

===Where do I sign up?===

Ticketing will likely be handled via the play.net Box Office when available. Please see the [[#Ticketing|Ticketing]] section for more details.

===Who organizes SimuCon?===

Typically GameMasters from Gemstone IV and DragonRealms are the official organizers. However, many players pitch in to plan unofficial events or to offer support. All work is strictly volunteer, so please be sure to thank your organizer team!

===What is it like to attend a SimuCon? ===

SimuCon is a gathering of players and GameMasters for Simutronics games, including Gemstone IV and DragonRealms. The convention includes several events, as listed in the [[#2024 Schedule|2024 Schedule]], that are planned by both players and staff. In-between events, attendees typically gather at conference tables similar to a large LAN party to play. Board games and other activities are frequently available as well.

===How many people attend SimuCon and when do they show up?===

SimuCon has experienced a growth spurt over the past three years or so. A current rough estimate would be 100 attendees (GS and DR combined) over the course of the weekend. The main convention days are Thursday through Sunday, although several people arrive on Wednesday and stay through Monday. The convention room is typically setup by Wednesday evening.

===What equipment should I bring?===

Bring your laptop/computer so that you can play Gemstone during the convention. Internet access and power strips are typically provided. '''Note:''' It is not recommended that you leave your equipment unattended in the conference room.

===Will I need a car? ===

Many attendees never leave the hotel. However if you are planning to explore St. Louis, a car is recommended as public transportation options are slim. Lyft and Uber are both operational in St. Louis and are ideal for single trips. For any excursions listed in the schedule, carpool options may be available. A shuttle may be available to and from your hotel for airport travel, but don't forget to bring cash for a tip!

===Is SimuCon family friendly?===

In general, yes. Some attendees do bring children but activities in the convention room may be of limited interest to them. Note the [[#Attractions|Attractions]] section listed below for additional kid-friendly activities available in St. Louis. Please expect to encounter explicit language and consumption of alcoholic beverages, which will increase in the late night hours.

===What is the weather typically like?===

Missouri is nicknamed "Misery" for its hot and humid summers. For a current local forecast, click here: https://www.ksdk.com/weather

===Do I need to bring food or beverages?===

Depending on funds available, basic snacks will be provided. You are generally on your own for meals and can purchase food at the grocery or restaurant options listed in the [[#Dining.2FEating|Dining/Eating]] section. SimuCon is strictly BYOB. Alcohol can be purchased in most grocery stores and gas stations in Missouri.

===What should I wear?===

SimuCon is casual attire unless the schedule for a specific event indicates otherwise. Some events may encourage costumes or themed attire.

===Is there a pool?===

YES! Pack your bathing suits because the official SimuCon hotel has an outdoor pool! There is even a poolside bar with snacks and beverages (open Friday through Sunday), and towel service is available. It is recommended that you pack sunscreen ahead of time, because the hotel and nearby shops do not stock any! It is also recommended that you bring pool noodles, because pool noodles are wicked cool.
