Fishing and Money
There are many new species of fish to discover, spread across time and space. Fishing is the only source of income.
The market
Each species has an independent price. Selling pushes that species down; it recovers over time.
A varied haul sells for far more than the same volume of one species. The more of one fish you dump, the less each one pays.
/fishmarket shows the real payout before you commit to a sale.
Prices also drift on their own, following the moon, the planets, births, deaths and the dragon's element. Each fish reacts to these differently. Sometimes a fish, or a group of similar fish, makes a sudden move. Big moves are announced in chat once they peak.
The live market page shows every discovered species at once, with charts, records and the market index. Same numbers as /fishmarket, a few minutes behind at most.
Discovery and records
A species is hidden from the market until someone sells the first one. That sale reveals it server-wide and sets the first record.
Records are by length. The current holder can pay to give that species a public name, until someone lands a longer one.
Where fish are
Species are tied to biomes. Some also depend on moon phase and time of day.
What else you can catch
Instead of a fish, a catch can be:
| Catch | Chance |
|---|---|
| Magic Stone | 6% |
| Enchanted book | 5% |
| Spellbook | 1% |
Each Luck of the Sea level adds 2% to all three. Spellbooks lean heavily toward low circles. Mending is the rarest enchantment, about 1 in 2,900 catches.
