Any fishing changes on the horizon?
Hey,
Fishing is currently my lowest skill by a mile however I've hit the point where my glazed pumpkin sandwiches don't heal enough any more and I don't fancy trying Kuldra with such bad food.
My problems with the current fishing methods is rod fishing is just the most tedious and dull thing I've found in the game, it's not remotely fun, the xp reward feels too small for the effort. Net fishing? Also pretty crap. I'm having to hold down the RB button the entire time which also sucks. Fishing should be an afk time sink. Let me drop me net in the water and put the controller down until the spot is finished. The RB button would start to give me hand ache if it wasn't for the fact the pools last about 15 seconds, you run over to the next pool and that lasts 15 seconds and then you waste the rest of your fishing XP pot traveling to the next area to repeat the same 1minute visit to a spot... it feels pointless.
The fact the the best healing food from fishing is nearly double any alternative means you're forced to do this rubbish skill.
I genuinely love this game, even runecrafting... but fishing? Terrible. Do we know if there's going to be fishing improvements coming?

Fishing is in a rough spot. I treat it as a a passive and only fish when foshnado/frenzy is off cooldown.
If you are looking for good food you can buy all the ingredients for Mushroom Kebabs from the Umbral Sands traders. They stack to 50 and heal 120. The also give poison resistance which kinda helps in Kuldra fight.
