And I am his "Best Friend" the highest rep you can get with ol' Nat. So I purchased the hat as soon as I could in an attempt to increase the lunker drop rate.Ĭomment by EryanWoWI don't know about anyone else out there, but Nat sells the Anglers' Water Striders (mount equipment for water walking) in my garrison for 50 gold.not the 42g 50s it shows here. Worth noting is that it took me over 125 lunkers to get the rep on night elf with no rep buffs for the mount. By the time I hit Nagrand, I generally had about 50 lunkers. I completed this on alliance so I would go directly north out of the garrison and head east once I hit the sea coast then go around clockwise.
#Should ufish in schools for lunkers plus#
Plus if you are just riding along the coast you don't have to keep checking your map for your location which makes it easier to do something like watch tv or whatever while you do this. Basically spending more time traveling and less time actually fishing. I feel like other schools have higher drop rates of lunkers but I also thought that them being harder to locate and the downtime waiting for respawn would make them less efficient than sea scorpion. My strategy was to just follow the coastline and fish sea scorpion schools. Perhaps druid travel form would be tolerable. I had flying but if you don't, I suggest you use a character than has some form of waterwalking or can obtain lots of waterwalking potions. You do need to fish in pools for lunkers. First there will be a one-time quest for one of each lunker, then repeatable quests for each of the lunker types will become available. I actually did not assign Nat to the fishing shack right away when I unlocked him as follower but ensure that you do once he is available.įrom here on out you're after lunkers. Then you complete the remainder of the short questline to turn in the arcane trout and get Nat to appear at your garrison.

You can catch the arcane trout at the nearest in-land body of water. It might be a trivial quest so may not appear on your minimap.
#Should ufish in schools for lunkers upgrade#
Once the upgrade is complete, you have to accept a quest from one of the NPCs at the shack. Once you have the angler achievement you can purchase the fishing shack blueprint and upgrade to level 3. (If you don't get one and don't have one in your bags, check your bank) You will get the appropriate fish bait within 5 or so casts when you don't already possess one so use liberally. Third, when fishing in open water for enormous fish, ensure that you are keeping the appropriate fish's bait applied. While you are fishing glance at your minimap periodically to ensure you get any new spawns. When you stay in one spot, the strategy is simple if boring and more time consuming than being able to go from pool to pool.įirst, find a place where a pool or several pools can spawn if possible. Even with flying I just stayed in one spot and fished for a while. However, the pools were far more infrequent in Gorgrond, Frostfire Ridge, and Spires of Arak. With flying I found there were ample pools to fish them in Talador, Shadowmoon Valley, and Nagrand as well as the Sea Scorpions which are along the coasts in all zones. You do not have to fish schools but it helps if they are easily accessible. I began by fishing for the draenor angler achievement to unlock the level 3 fishing hut. I started with only the underlight angler and vendor fishing lures as fishing buffs. Started with 120 demon hunter who had never set foot in WOD content so 0 fish caught here. If you were more determined than me, you can probably shave several hours off. This method took about 18 hours of total game time to complete including breaks n stuff. so try to fish the bait when there is no school left)Ĭomment by norezenThought I would share my experience. Loot at least 10 with 100.(its hard to loot a bait in the fishing school, i dont know why. I got 3 when I loot up to 100, without any fish schools.Ībout the other thing he been talking-"bring a cooler" I think he means, which I do not have so dont know how it may work.īest location without flying:the water behind Ashran fly master, u got everything u need and even the people who you can throw the +100 fishing skill fish to.īest locations with flying and fish schools: Nagrand-Telaar. Nat Pagle:"any bites yet? I have found that patience (and beer) really helps bring in the big catch" When Nat Pagle comes, he will ask how is the beer.

The beer's buff can not add up with other fishing buffs but the beer lasting time can add up (each one u drink will add 3 more mins) Made by cooking, a rare recipe but u can always buy the beer from other people or from AH.ĭrink it before fishing (better with, ect. Remember how he loves to talk about the BEER? Comment by biutefouIf u were working on get all kinds of lunkers for his reputation.
