Seriously, Lava Eel Rage

[Daegda]

♥♥♥♥ this stupid fish the collections can kiss my ass.. I caught all 4 legendary fish without any problems.. Why the ♥♥♥♥ is that stupid fish harder to catch the the other fish. not to mention so hard to ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ get on the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ hook..

I thought it was hard... and immediately after complaining on the forums, I caught it easily the next time I went to go fishing for it. It's 99% luck.

Just learn his pattern.

Problem with the lava eel's pattern is, from what I remember, it's pretty much random jumping up and down the bar. You have to keep it on one side and hope for the best, it moves really fast.

It's not random, it does have one.
You just have to learn it.

The wiki says "mixed", and from my experience of catching one it didn't seem like it had a pattern.

My strategy has always been to complain, and once someone says it's easy or hard, you catch it instantly and feel like an idiot.

Yeah, works for me.

It helps if you're using food with the maximum fishing buffer, so you get up to a level 13 skill. And then having a trap bobber helps a lot too. I caught the Legend on my first try, and the lava eel on my second.

I find that having a trap bobber helps a lot.

Yes, mixed, as in more than just darting.

You sorta catch on after trying enough, like Legend.

From what I saw, it's more luck than trying multiple times, like 1/20 of the time it can be catch. It can be the first time in your day, if you miss your chance maybe you won't have another chance that day, so reload or try hard again and again

It's trying multiple times. Not luck. Do you have any proof to back that up?

I tried like 40 time to catch the Legend ( on the same day, like 3 reload ) every time the first hit was the calm one, all the other was crazy hard.
I found out funny how repetitive was the pattern every time I reload that day

That's not proof.
I can claim the opposite.

Whatever bro, I'm not here to proof something. I'm here to help, not just to say get gud

But that's literally all there is to it, practice.

But how are you helping with false information

There is no fix pattern too so how can you learn the pattern?

Try to bring any proof of a fix pattern.

I didn't say there's a fixed pattern.
I said it has a pattern.
As the wiki said, it has the "mixed" pattern.

It basically ♥♥♥♥♥ around, but when you practice enough, you start to catch on to the movement.
How the best way I can describe it, is, it sort of follows the patterns of other fish, but changes randomly between each one. Sometimes it stays still for a moment, next it darts, all that.
Mixed, as the wiki says.

OK great thx for the hint now I know fish are moving

[Spockus]

It's like an easier version of the Legend, you can only really catch this fish once you are rly good at fishing and have hit LV 10. Trap bobber also helps a ton. I caught it second try, but I got mad, rad, grad skillz m8 :)

[Daegda]

I caught legend first try so ♥♥♥♥ off
