Fishing XP


TheLad1

Recommended Posts

I'm losing the will to live - I need to get 85 Fishing to finish off the Fally Elite task list (will Pie to 90) & it's not going well.....

 

I've tried various methods, none of which seem overly fast.

 

Barb fishing is too click intensive for me with all that dropping or alching.

C2 Dung'ing is ok - is it best to quit the floor once all the spots have been exhaused or finish boss & start new floor?

I'm back to doing Monks with Rock Lobster & Decorated Urns.

 

I can't actually tell you what XP rate I'm getting at them moment as I tend to lose interest very quickly !!

 

Any pointers would be gratefully received.

I'm in the same boat as you (bad pun intended). I was switching between hating monks for slow xp, then hating C2 fishing because it was a hassle to fight between fishing and there was no profit. I've since settled on C2 fishing and I'm getting maybe 80k/hr (estimate) while also watching television. The rate would improve when I get around to setting up and using mousekeys.

 

Basically, I enter a C2 dung, sell off given armor, buy a rod & feathers, and drop the stackables. Then I essentially do the entire dung exhausting all fishing spots until the boss is found. Once this happens, I leave the dung and begin another one.

I've never seen Sixth Sense nor Inception nor many other popular movies and I intend to keep it that way.

I would just stick with barbarian fishing. I split screened and watched movies while fishing there. Never thought it was too click-intensive. :P

 

I did a bit of C2 fishing and always quit floors as soon as there were no more fishing spots left.

 

Flyfishing at shilo village is around 50k fishing xp/hr and you can bank all the fish and make a small profit. Same XP rates as monkfish but at a faster pace if monkfish are making you get bored. :D

You can do regular fly fishing near Rasolo the merchant as well, just sell him the fish. About 50k/hr.

 

Fish Flingers are good too, join the clan chat Fish Flingers for games. It's very afk and roughly 60k/hr I think? but you can play only ten games per week (3 games per hour or so).

A nice incentive is to do c2 fishing in conjunction with dungeoneering. When you've done all your main floors, instead of c1ing it quickly, forbid yourself from completing the floors unless you've fished in them. Means you kill the boss etc, but it's a nice way to add intervals to your goal.

That's what I do, need fishing 90 so I can properly AFK while studying, so after I've done all my dungeons I just do c2. I am also going to c2 fish after I get rc 70 on BXW, then I might just leave dung once all fish spots are exhausted, cause it seems faster - never actually tried it like that tbh

Thanks all, you've basically all confirmed that I'm sort of doing the right thing & it doesn't really get any faster :( Guess I'd better persevere.

 

I may even fish after doing my Tree Run & a couple of Hundred K smith & Construction Xp this coming BXPW. Should be getting around 2.2 x multiplier at this stage which might be more bearable.
