Valethar✭✭✭✭NoOh sure. Because another grind is just what ESO needs.Resistance is not futile! Say no to the Greed Collective™. Boycott Crown Crates.3
-
babedenny✭✭✭✭YesI actually think of fishing as a diversion from the grind, but I understand your point.2
-
Cousin_Idirfa✭✭✭YesYes, and I'll add that a fishing pole slot would be cool. And recipes to craft some different baits that might increase chances at rare fish. And fishing daily quests.3

NewBlacksmurf✭✭✭✭✭
✭✭✭✭✭NoHeck NO this isn't WoW.
Honestlyfishing and gathering should all be the same so it's either alchemy or provisioning but not fishing as something seperate-PC (PTS)/Xbox One: NewBlacksmurf

babedenny✭✭✭✭YesI actually like fishing in ESO. I usually turn the music off and just listen to the environmental sounds. It's relaxing. Not to mention the picturesque vistas.
But catching a lot of fish, and having nothing to show for it is a bit of a letdown.6 -

✭✭✭✭✭YesWould be neat if it came with passives, like an increased chance for rare fish.Men'Do PC NA AD Khajiit

babedenny✭✭✭✭YesYou always have the option of not grinding it. I understand that there are some players that feel compelled to be max level at everything. I get it. If a new progression were introduced, you would have no choice but to grind it out.Edited by babedenny on November 22, 2016 5:07AM1

WldKarde✭✭✭✭✭YesIt's my kick back and just enjoy the beauty of Tanmriel time.
With a little perfect roe on the side.
That said, I wouldn't mind if they expanded on my favorite diversion in the least

babedenny✭✭✭✭YesYea, I'm not exactly sure how I would envision it working. Being able to catch rare fish that through provisioning could be made into food buffs that really matter. Fishing tournaments, achievements, etc. Or, just plain old gold.Edited by babedenny on November 22, 2016 5:17AM0

Astanphaeus✭✭✭✭✭NoNo, just because I don't understand the point. You already always get something if you use the proper bait. Explain what you are looking for. Also, I don't want to use even more skill points without an introduction of more ways to get skill points into the game.2 -
WhitePawPrints✭✭✭✭✭
✭I'd like fishing and other minor things like this in the game to be expanded on. I have never fished once in the game because there is practically no reason to. A daily quest or something would be nice, and not exactly a skill tree but some sort of leveling system to make fishing easier or more rewarding.Edited by WhitePawPrints on November 22, 2016 5:52AM0 -
Sinolai✭✭✭✭✭NoYou can have better baits without locking them behind lvl requirements. (Are the baits you get from the waters better than insects you harvest?) I think it would be just too dull to "level up" fishing. The only reason for fishing skill would be giving huge increase to the chance of getting perfect roe.1
-
TheShadowScout✭✭✭✭✭
✭✭✭✭✭YesSure. I would love a "crafting" skill line devoted to the outdoor-istic lifestyle... with perks that give bonus chance to get a good fishie, and perks that get a bonus chance to get neat hides from skinning critters... stuff like that.1 -
SantieClaws✭✭✭✭✭
✭✭✭✭✭YesYes. Because like many other things in Tamriel the more you do it the better you should get at it yes.
A skill line perhaps a little like the legerdemain one perhaps? With the possibility of a bonus to green fish, bonus to blue fish, better contents of gunny sacks, occasional extra normal fish and for the top skill perhaps a bonus to perfect roe?

leepalmer95✭✭✭✭✭
✭✭✭✭✭YesFew passive Ideas:
Chance of rare fish drop increased by X%
Fishing location timer increased by X%
Chance to get perfect roe from drops increased by X%
Chance to catch 2x fish at once %PS4 EU DC
Current CP : 756+
I have every character level 50, both a magicka and stamina version.
RIP my effort to get 5x v16 characters...3 -
MasterSpatula✭✭✭✭✭
✭✭✭✭✭NoDefinitely not.
Can't for the life of me figure out why caught bait doesn't increase your chance of rare fish, though. It seems like such an obvious way to design it."A probable impossibility is preferable to an improbable possibility." - Aristotle4 -

Alucardo✭✭✭✭✭
✭✭✭✭✭NoNah, not really. There's enough crap to level in this game without having to worry about fishing. I just want to catch my fish, do some filleting and get my roe.2 -
Abeille✭✭✭✭✭
✭✭✭✭✭YesI would like to see activities that are not combat related to get some attention, yeah. This looks like a good start, to me.Just so that everyone knows, my Altmer still can't have black hair. About a dozen of Altmer NPCs in the game have black hair. Just saying.
Meet my characters:Command: Do the thing.
Zadarri, Khajiit Fist of Thalmor: The thing was done, as commanded.
Durza gra-Maghul, Orc blacksmith: The thing was done perfectly, in the most efficient way.
Tegwen, Bosmer troublemaker: You can't prove I didn't do the thing.
Sings-Many-Songs, Argonian fisher: Sure, I'll do the thing... Eventually. Maybe.
Aerindel, Altmer stormcaller: After extensive research, I've come to the conclusion that doing the thing would be a waste of resources.
Liliel, Dunmer pyromancer: Aerindel said I shouldn't do the thing. Something about "resources".
Gyda Snowcaller, Nord cryomancer: I will find a way to do it that won't waste resources and make Aerindel proud of me.
Beatrice Leoriane, Breton vampire: I persuaded someone else into doing the thing. You are welcome, dear.
Sahima, Redguard performer: Doing the thing sounds awfully unpleasant and really not my problem.
Ellaria Valerius, Imperial priestess: I'll pray to the Eight for the thing to be done, if it is Their will.1 -

AntMan100673✭✭✭YesAs long as the base figures for catching rare fish etc was left as it is and not nerfed then yes.

These passives, plus a passive to have a chance to catch a bait and a fish at the same time.
More recipes that require perfect roe. Introduction of green, blue, and purple provisioning mats along with perfect roe.
When fishing, add a chance to catch a message in a bottle that would send you on a repeatable quest (rescue shipwrecked sailors, etc.).2
