[Fishing] Turtle, in how many catches did you (not) get it?

    You don't think it has a higher chance to drop from higher level pools than the lower level pools such as Herring?

    From what ive read it has an equal drop rate from any NR pool. Frozen Sea and Sholazar Basin just seem higher because of the higher number of pools in the areas.

    got mine after 1072 casts (i made sure to count em). wish i was as lucky as some of you who got it so quickly! Did all of my fishing on the coast of grizzly hills. was hardly anyone over there fishing. gl to everyone else going for it!

    I got mine after maybe around 3 hours fishing total and a guildie got one maybe 1-2minutes later... :x

    208 Fishes
    2 Junk's (Forgot hat >_<)
    About 9 crates

    Got it on my 5th cast, and yes I'm serious, it was in Sholazar Basin.
    I thought this was supposed to be difficult to get, did the blizzard people misplace a decimal point?

    Happened more or less the same. I also got a lockbox from daily with 1 epic gem, 2 rare gems, 1 rare ring and 20g(or 50g dont remember) junk item.

    Thus demonstrating the power of the random in random number generator :)

    Got mine on the 3:d pool today, fished in the monsterbelly pools just outside Death´s Stand.

  8. Brynthe <Angler>, 1 year ago:

    I caught mine in around 20 casts, it was the 3rd pool that I had tried. I started at Vengeance Landing and got 3 pools there, then flew north along the coast and got it on my first pool in Grizzly Hills.

    I actually got my Giant Sewer Rat yesterday, while doing the fishing daily as well. Overall it was a good day.

    Hey guys, question about the turtle. Is there a loot confirmation dialogue? Like Mr Pinchy and Old Crafty, etc. I have fished about 100 pools so far and nothing...I don't want to finally catch it and accidently move and lose the catch. Thanks for your help.

  10. Gihelle <Salty>, 1 year ago:

    I'm like the unluckiest fisher ever...

    3 days, only got worthless junk, not even a Glow Worm. I doubt I'll ever catch this mount :< I won't give up, but it was painful to get my Pinchy and my Away...

  11. sengoret <Angler>, 1 year ago:

    Was amazingly surprised and startled me when i caught the turtle.
    Fishing Salmon right near Amberpine Lodge with a friend Tammaryn.
    Was in about the 6th pool with some random non pool casts, exactly 23 casts. Not long at all!

    Had +100 fishing lure, Mastercraft Kalu'ak Fishing Pole, +2 fishing gloves, and Nat Pagle's boots.
    Same day i got the Weather Beaten Fishing Hat in the fishing daily!

    The mount is amazingly slow on land, but so much fun.

    BTW: Skelleth, yes there is a BOP warning.

    read the Turtle guild El made, its in there somewhere that they removed all confimation dailogues from fishing

  13. sengoret <Angler>, 1 year ago:

    That may be true, but i guarantee you i got a loot warning when i got this turtle mount AND when i looted the "Dark Herring" the other day. Just be aware.

  14. TheTacoMan <Salty>, 1 year ago:

    We are getting people going as far as 2500 without the turtle, and people getting it in 5. This is how the RNG always works, and always will. Until we get about 1000 catches, we won't know the exact drop rate, but i'd say its probably close to 1 in 1000

    I'm sitting at ~600 casts and no turtle atm

  15. Diviatix <Salty>, 1 year ago:

    got it about 30 minutes ago,
    Scholazar Basin, catched ~270 Nettlefish and got it
    Skill 565: Kaluak Fishing Pole, Weather-Beaten Fishing Hat, High Test Eternium Fishing Line

    no confirmation for looting was needed

  16. el <Nat Pagle's Love Child>, 1 year ago:

    On my realm, a lot of people are out there fishing for the turtle, but I still haven't seen anyone riding it. It's entirely logical that everyone who reports catching it in the first day will report catching it within 1000-or-so: Nobody's had time yet to catch many thousands fish from pools.

    I didn't get a loot dialogue, but I did get the dramatic >Wha-doink!< noise and achievement display at the bottom center of the screen, so there was no question at all about whether or not I'd caught it. The achievement is for fishing it up - so as soon as you've caught it, you'll know!

    I did use it for a bit earlier in WSG, but I was afraid someone would accuse me of turtling.

    And to confirm - there was NO loot dialog.

  19. Codelin <Angler>, 1 year ago:

    I was very lucky. I did the fishing daily in the Basin for about 10 mins. Then went to Tundra and got it on my 2nd cast there in a Fangtooth school.

    It's really nice looking, and the animations are pretty cool when it cranes its neck and stuff.

    fredje222 make sure you let us know if you catch yours, with my 3000 catches im not far behind you and would definatly like to know when you get yours. Gives me some sanity to know im not the only one struggling while most people catch it in under 100.....
