Fish Quality

Fish Quality

Every fish caught through the Fishtastic minigame is assigned a quality tier at the moment the server generates the loot. Quality affects the fish's size, its tooltip color, and whether it renders with a visual glint effect.

Quality Tiers

Tier	Color	Drop Weight	Approx. Chance
Common	Gray	6400	~63.9%
Uncommon	Green	2500	~25.0%
Rare	Blue	750	~7.5%
Epic	Purple	250	~2.5%
Legendary	Gold	100	~1.0%

Total weight: 10,000. Weights are fixed — they do not change with Luck.

Quality and Size

Each quality tier applies a modifier to the fish's Gaussian size distribution:

Quality	Mean size bonus	Mean multiplier
Common	+0 cm	×1.0
Uncommon	+10 cm	×1.1
Rare	+20 cm	×1.2
Epic	+45 cm	×1.3
Legendary	+75 cm	×1.5

So a Common Bluegill averages 50 cm while a Legendary Bluegill averages ~125 cm and is drawn from a wider distribution.

Visual Effects

Items with Uncommon quality or higher render with a visual sparkle/glint overlay. Effect intensity scales with tier:

Quality	Effect intensity
Common	None
Uncommon / Rare	30%
Epic	60%
Legendary	100%
