- A Fishing Attributes stat container used by the fishing engine
NewFishingPole
Quality & durability
New poles can roll quality which affects durability:
- Exceptional: 500 uses
- Exquisit: 750 uses
- Mastercrafted: 1000 uses
Fishing Attributes (stats)
The pole can provide Fishing Attributes which the fishing system reads and applies:
- Expertise
- GroupAffinity (mapped to FishGroup)
- SOSRadius
- BaitEfficiency
- TreasureSense
- SalvageLuck
- MonsterLure
- MysticLure
These attributes can increase special catch chances, enable affinity fishing, and improve monster and treasure outcomes.
How the game reads these stats
Fishing attributes are read from your equipped items via:
- the fishing engine querying FishingAttributes values
- and applying them in bait, affinity, and mutation logic
Tips for players
- If you want rare fish and special outcomes: prioritize poles with relevant Fishing Attributes.
- Affinity fishing requires a pole with GroupAffinity set to a non-zero group.
