Fishing ultra rare drops unbelievable hard to get

[SonOfAbaddon]

Hi,

I have enjoyed the game, fun 20 or so hours. Now I try to get the last achievement and I need 10 of each of the ultra rare drops for the staffs. The digging could be speed up with shrines that spawn dig places but the fishing part is a PITA.

I'm stuck with anchors and frozen squids. I pulled all my stuff together to get these but no dice. Even with power plants and light houses the drag is nowhere to be called "fun".

Any advice, maybe lift up the drop chance a bit?

Cheers!

potions, shrines with industrious or builder scrolls, afking and drones.
power plants have a cap of 4 but lighthouses don't so build a crapton of lighthouses and once you get the drop it should be enough for the staffs.

AFKing is what I do right now. Otherwise this would be insane.

I got them just leaving the PC and go watch a TV series in the living room.

Not the best way to play a game but it did the job.

If you place all the fishing things you can and lighthouse the crap out of them you will get way over 10 each time they drop. It would be a bit overkill, but it would work very well.

in addition to what TechnicBeast said about using lots of lighthouses, there are a few spots on the map where multiple biomes meet, just use the obliterator (if you have already filled in every square) and place fishing traps around the corner where they all meet and you can AFK and get three artifacts for the patience of waiting. Also, drone will auto-harvest fishing traps while you wait.
