bare hand barbarian fishing speed question

[bombardior]

im very curious about one thing. so barbarian fishing requires a lot higher level than non barbarian counter part, does that mean it is fished at a slower rate?

 

 

 

for example, at level 76 i can do shark, but at level 96 i can do shark without harpoon. does that mean rate of fishing shark at 76 = 96?

 

then in terms of getting resources, is it still better to use the harpoon then?

 

 

 

and this doesnt have to apply to sharks. same with tuna/swordfish?

[Bunker_Boy]

I don't think so. I think it's the same rate as it would be with a harpoon, you just get STR xp too.

[bombardior]

oh, so then what woudl be the incentive to not barb fish then? str xp... more inventory space... same rate.. etc?

 

i've noticed im fishing sword/tuna slower than if i had used harpoon tho.. duno if im just paranoid or what

Its all in your head, its the same speed with or without a harpoon.

Besides, you can use a barbtailed harpoon instead of a normal one. Doesn't take up space, because you can weild it as a weapon.
