How fishing works
Pick a spot, cast, and play a short interactive catch sequence. Timing and skill decide the result. Each cast costs one Energy, and spots have independent per-spot cooldowns.
Energy cap
Energy caps at 15 (raised to 20 with Premium), regenerating roughly every 15 minutes (12 with Premium). Energy refills while you do anything else in the game.
Fishing spots
Multiple spots available — Riverside, Misty, Storm, Lava, Abyss, and more. Higher-tier spots unlock as you level and complete expeditions. Each has its own drop table.
Tournament mode
Live tournament tracks daily, weekly, and all-time best scores. Leaderboard rewards pay out in diamonds and exclusive frames.
What you catch
Fish species (fill the Bestiary), Fish Bones (workshop currency), pet food, and occasional rare/epic gear pieces. Rarer spots = rarer catches.
