===Fishing Skill Cap List=== === Contents === 1) Intro 2) Version History 3) Poles/Rods 4) Skill Gain Trivial Chart 5) Credits === (1) Intro === I take no credit other than the translation for the chart found in section 4 of this guide. Information for the Skill Cap list was all translated from here: http://www.geocities.co.jp/Playtown- Bishop/7994/index.html === (2) Version History === 1.0 First Translation, anything with a '?' after it still needs to be verified === (3) Poles/Rods === Currently there are really only 2-3 cost-efficient Rods. These are: Mithran Rod - Best for Fresh Water fishing, this can catch all "Small" sized fish without breaking, as well as be able to withstand the weight of the occasional "Rusty" item. Carbon Rod - Good for Salt Water "Small" fishing along with Sabiki rig. It can also be used in Fresh Water, but it will break with "Rusty" items. Composite Rod - Best for Salt Water and Fresh Water "Large" fishing. I would also assume "Lu Shang's Fishing Rod" is great for "Small" fish, but I haven't been able to find any information on it in Japanese or English, and only seen one in game, so no clue how it does with "Rusty" items. === (4) Skill Gain Caps === Again, I take no credit for the information provided below, other than the translation of it from Japanese to English. The original is found on this page: http://www.geocities.co.jp/Playtown-Bishop/7994/index.html Anything with a "?" after it has not confirmed, if you can confirm it, please email me at me@brianbunge.com or contact the site admin that you found this guide on. _______________________________________________________________________________ |Name |Skill Cap|Water Type| Bait |Guild Price| Size | |___________________|_________|__________|_________________|___________|______| | Crayfish | 7 | Fresh | Little Worm, | 23 |Small | | | | | Slice of Carp? | | | |___________________|_________|__________|_________________|___________|______| | Bastore Sardine | 10 | Salt | Lugworm, Sabiki | 16 |Small | | | | | Rig | | | |___________________|_________|__________|_________________|___________|______| | Moat Carp | 11 | Fresh | Little Worm, | 30 |Small | | | | | Insect Ball | | | |___________________|_________|__________|_________________|___________|______| | Greedie | 14 | Salt | Lugworm? | 17 |Small | |___________________|_________|__________|_________________|___________|______| | Copper Frog | 16 | Fresh | Fly, Frog Lure? | 58 |Small | |___________________|_________|__________|_________________|___________|______| | Yellow Globe | 17 | Salt | Sabiki Rig | 56 |Small | |___________________|_________|__________|_________________|___________|______| | Quus | 19 | Salt | Lugworm, Sabiki | 45 |Small | | | | | Rig | | | |___________________|_________|__________|_________________|___________|______| | Cheval Salmon | 21 | Fresh | Fly | 58 |Small | |___________________|_________|__________|_________________|___________|______| | Fat Greedie | 23 | Salt | Lugworm? | x |Small | |___________________|_________|__________|_________________|___________|______| | Tricolored Carp | 27 | Fresh | Little Worm, | 115 |Small | | | | | Insect Ball, | | | | | | | Shell Bug? | | | |___________________|_________|__________|_________________|___________|______| | Pipira | 29 | Fresh | Meatball, Minnow| 135 |Small | |___________________|_________|__________|_________________|___________|______| | Tiger Cod | 29 | Salt | Sardine Ball | 115 |Small | |___________________|_________|__________|_________________|___________|______| | Nebimonite | 30 | Salt | Crayfish Ball | 154 |Small | | | | | Shrimp Lure? | | | |___________________|_________|__________|_________________|___________|______| | Giant Catfish | 31 | Fresh | Frog Lure, Slice| 225 |Large | | | | | of Carp? | | | | | | | Sinking Minnow? | | | | | | | Minnow? | | | |___________________|_________|__________|_________________|___________|______| | Dark Bass | 33 | Fresh | Little Worm, | 50 |Small | | | | | Insect Ball, | | | | | | | Worm Lure?
