Information
The Fishing Event speaks for itself, it's an event entirely based upon fishing. However, there are some new fish this time around! Players can access the event by using /warp fishing. This allows them to take part and obtain a hefty amount of cash, new smelly and shiny hats, sexy new wings and maybe even some 
Squid Spawners! This event is planned to last approximately 2 weeks.
This event includes 3 exclusive achievements for those who wish to enhance their total achievement score:
- Let's go-lo! (Fish 25 Lekgolo during the new Fishing Event!)
- Can I Ax-olotl you a question? (Fish 50 Axolotl during the new Fishing Event!)
- The newest and rarest species (Fish 3 Sangheili during the new Fishing Event!)
This event also introduces 5 new species of fish which can be used for trading with the various NPC's scattered across the /warp fishing area:
-
Flameback (500 Fishing XP upon catching)
- Yanmee (1000 Fishing XP upon catching)
- Lekgolo (2000 Fishing XP upon catching)
- Axolotl (3000 Fishing XP upon catching)
- Sangheili (4000 Fishing XP upon catching)
This event also introduces a MicroEvent which will randomly occur within the MicroEvent world every 10-30 minutes whilst there are 5 or more players online. This MicroEvent will effect how fishing functions for 2-10 minutes within this world. The entire list of MicroEvents are specified below.
