Fishing doesn't drop furnishings anymore

MyNameIsElias · October 2018

I've gotten the master fisher achievement from 3 different zones since Murkmire launched, and i have recieved 0 furnishings so far. I've caught well over 2 thousand fish, and it would be *extremely* weird rng for me to get *0* furnishings. From what i can tell, this should be impacting all the zones.

Roughly a year ago i made a post that explains how the addition of furnishings to the fishing loot table made master angler a much quicker process, so fixing this bug asap would make life much easier for the aspiring master anglers!

I'm on PC EU if that helps!

Oh and the zones i completed since the patch were Eastmarch, The Rift & Coldharbour.

Well the new furniture fish for Murkmire is dropping along with other furniture fishes (haven't seen coral or seaweed yet myself). I also haven't fished anywhere else since Murkmire...

I've avoided Fishing in Murkmire so far because i heard that the achievement is bugged. Good to know that atleast 1 zone has furnishings dropping in it

I have completed even more zones now, and have still recieved 0 furnishings from fishing.

Also. i have tried paying more attention to what i loot when fishing, and there have been multiple moments where i reel in the fishing rod, and i loot nothing.... I am 100% certain that this is when i would loot a furnishing, but the game bugs out and doesn't give me the item.

YES! I just noticed this yesterday! I thought the 1st time it did that, maybe I pressed "E" too soon even though I was sure I didn't. It happened 2 more times after that.
I get the "tell" that I hooked something, reel it in, but there is nothing looted.
This was in non-DLC areas(I forget exactly where, but I know I was waiting for a Dolmen each time).

@ZOS_GinaBruno Still an issue after Monday's incremental patch

MyNameIsElias · November 2018

@ZOS_GinaBruno are you guys aware of this issue?

I sent in a ticket aswell.

This has been happening to me as well.

I did Auridon, Bangkorai, Coldharbour, Craglorn, Deshaan angler achievements after Murkmire with zero furnishing drops. Can also confirm my loot mysteriously vanishes every now and then.
