Unable to fish in Wrothgar since start of Year One event

crispyplatypus · August 2021

I noticed that I am unable to fish in Wrothgar but I am able to fish in other zones. I can see a prompt to fish at a fishing spot, I can select the proper bait (I have plenty of all kinds), but when I try to cast my fishing rod, nothing happens. I turned off all my add-ons, reloaded UI, and still cannot fish in Wrothgar. I turned off all my add-ons and logged out of the game and then logged back in, and I still cannot fish in Wrothgar. I went to Craglorn, some DLC zones, and some base game zones and I could fish without a problem. The problem only seems to be in Wrothgar. I am wondering if this fishing bug only started today with the launch of the Year One event (since it is impacting a zone that's part of the event and I can't find any other recent complaints about fishing in Bug Reports). I am on PC on the NA megaserver.

Anyone else having this issue?

This seems to be a more widespread bug, not just you.

Someone complained about it in zone chat just now and myself and a third person verified that it wasn't working for us either.

I'm not sure if it's event-related or if it's yet another weird thing broken by the update.

I asked in zone chat if other people could check, to see if it was working for anyone, and all the feedback was "no".

I have the same problem, and others in my guild too, and I've already sent a bug report in-game on this.

Forgot to add that it started after Update 31, not the event. PC/EU btw.

Greetings,

We are aware and are currently investigating the issue with some players not being able to fish in-game. With that being said, since there is already a thread opened on this subject, we're going to go ahead and close this one down. To consolidate all feedback, we ask that you continue the discussion here.

Thank you for your understanding.
