Fishing

Fishing

Category: Survivalism · Command: /fishing · Super ability: None

Fishing makes fish bite faster and turns some of your catches into treasure, including enchanted gear.

Earning XP

Catch fish. The kind of fish makes a big difference:

Catch	XP
Cod	100
Salmon	600
Pufferfish	2,400
Tropical Fish	10,000
Treasure (Treasure Hunter)	Bonus XP on top
Shaking an item off a mob	50

Move around. If you keep fishing the same spot without moving more than a few blocks, it becomes overfished and stops paying. Fishing while AFK doesn't count either.

Abilities

Ability	Unlocks	What it does
Treasure Hunter	Level 1 (tiers at 1, 25, 35, 50, 65, 75, 85, 100)	Some catches become treasure instead of fish. Treasure comes in six rarities, from Common to Mythic, and higher tiers find rarer treasure more often. Luck of the Sea helps too.
Master Angler	Level 1 (ranks at 1, 20, 30, 40, 60, 70, 80, 90)	Fish bite sooner. Each rank cuts 0.5 seconds from the shortest wait and 1.5 seconds from the longest. Fishing from a boat takes off another 0.5 and 1.5 seconds.
Ice Fishing	Level 5	Fish through ice in cold biomes
Shake	Level 15 (ranks at 15, 20, 25, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70)	Hook a mob and reel it in for a chance to shake an item off it: 15% at rank 1, up to 75% at rank 8. It also deals a quarter of the mob's max health in damage (at least 1, at most 10).
Magic Hunter	Level 20	Treasure gear (armor, tools, weapons) can come up enchanted. Rarer treasure gets stronger enchantments.
Fisherman's Diet	Level 20 (ranks at 20, 40, 60, 80, 100)	Fish you eat restore more hunger
Vanilla XP Boost	With Treasure Hunter	Multiplies the vanilla experience orbs from fishing, up to 5× at the top tier

Treasure chance by tier:

Tier	Level	Common	Uncommon	Rare	Epic	Legendary	Mythic
1	1	7.5%	1.25%	0.25%	0.1%	0.01%	0.01%
8	100	0.1%	1.5%	6.0%	7.5%	5.0%	0.25%

Tips

• Tropical fish and pufferfish are where most Fishing XP comes from. A Lure rod gets you more bites per hour.
• Enchanted treasure gear is worth a lot of Salvage XP, so Fishing and Salvage make a good pair.
• Fishing is in Survivalism with Taming, Acrobatics and Unarmed. See Leather Mastery for Survivalism's passive.
