Hissmir Fish Eye Rye- Fishing holes not glowing
The food “Hissmir Fish Eye Rye” is not properly showing glowing fishing holes when consumed.

Barovia87✭✭✭✭This bug is still occurring months later, at least in Solstice on PCNA, and it's very frustrating.

✭✭✭✭Hissimir Fish Eye Rye hasn't worked beyond the stat boosts since fishing holes were changed like 5 years ago. And even then the supposed better visibility was believed to be a myth by many players. Though some insisted they could see a difference. I never could. I've never ever seen a video, screenshot, or any authoritative confirmation that it actually did at some point.

LootAllTheStuff✭✭✭✭✭Finally obtained this recipe on the weekend, and was disappointed that I couldn't see anything. Glad to know that at least it's not yet another strike against my eyesight, but an actual game bug.

✭✭✭✭✭Who uses Hissimir Fish Eye anymore? The fishing holes tell you what bait to use now, I understand they didn’t in the past.
Everyone uses Arteaum Picked Fish Bowl now.

Yeah. Not much use for it IMO either. Though if the Visibility aspect does indeed get fixed, it would make fishing in Coldharbour oh so much easier.
[edit] In hindsight, Solstice fishing can be challenging. I've stumbled upon fishing holes where I swear there's no animation.

✭✭✭✭✭I guess it should be fixed regardless.
The fishing spots in the Deadlands used to not have any splashing animation, I don’t know if that ever got fixed.
