After conducting thorough testing over 2,500 fishing attempts in Nightingale, I’ve observed that the fishing rating stat doesn’t seem to function as intended. Whether I used a fishing rating of 3 or 197, the catch rate for rare fish remained consistently around 12%. This issue persisted across different realm tiers (T2 to T4).
Based on my tests, there’s no noticeable difference in the catch rate or quality of fish when increasing the fishing rating. I believe this is a bug and have reported it with the hope of a fix in future updates. The community would benefit from clarification on how the fishing rating is supposed to work or an update to ensure the stat functions as intended. Thank you!

Steps to Reproduce | Add or remove gear with Fishing Rating stats and catch fishes, record the distribution. Due to randomness, it's recommended to came 100-200 casts before rating change. |
We need also Fisherman's soup.
