Fishing

In Swords of Legends Online you're able to participate in leisure activities, including fishing. The activity provides fish which is crucial for cooking useful food through cooking. Fishing requires a rod and bait (earth worm, delicious dried prawns and fivefold delicious bait), as well as a body of water. Sometimes game refers to fishing as "Gold of the Four Seas", even when it does not mean the quest itself by with the same name. This is possibly a translation error.

How to get started

To get the first fishing rod, you have to accept the fishing quest (Gold of the Four Seas) in the cultivation (Leisure and Fun).

Dong Ruicong is a sea market trader that you will have to talk as part of the tutorial . He is located on the right side of the center platform, from him you will get a basic, Green bamboo rod and some fish bait Earth dragon (Earth worms).

You can fish in any water around the world, but if you are not fishing on fishing holes, you are only able to get lowest quality of fish.

Fishing gear

There is a set of gears specifically for fishing. This gear set grants you higher abilities (more extra products, faster casting time, etc.) They can be crafted from recipes bought with fishing coins. You earn fishing coins if you fish with a special bait. Some of the bait can be bought straight from the merchant (Earth Dragon) There are also daily fishing task and weekly fishing events to earn more fishing coins.
