How to Unlock Fishing

Fishing becomes available early in the story:

• Progress to Chapter 2-3 (“Former Glories”).

• Complete the tutorial quest “Go Fishing”, given by Pandora-7 in Haven.

• You’ll receive your first fishing rod and bait, unlocking the ability to fish at marked spots.

How Fishing Works

1. Equip Rod and Bait
   Make sure a rod and bait are selected in your consumable slot.

2. Find a Fishing Spot
   Look for water sources marked with the fishing icon on your map.

3. Cast Your Line
   Press the fishing button to throw out your bobber.

4. Watch for a Bite
   When the bobber lights up or jerks, press the action button to hook the fish.

5. Catch the Fish

   • Common fish: Instantly reeled in.

   • Rare fish: A short minigame appears—keep the moving marker aligned with the fish icon until its stamina bar depletes.

Fishing Rewards & Progression

• Fishing EXP: Each catch grants experience, raising your Fishing Level.

• Angler Tokens: Earned by selling fish; used to buy:

  • Higher-grade bait (green → legendary)

  • Stronger fishing rods

  • Consumables, materials, and cosmetic items

• Skill Tree: Leveling up grants Fishing Skill Points, which unlock perks like:

  • Higher chance of rare catches

  • Reduced bait consumption

  • Longer rod durability

  • Access to advanced fishing zones

Why Fishing Matters

• Provides steady income and tokens for gear progression.

• Offers a laid-back alternative to combat-heavy activities.

• Higher levels unlock chances at rare rewards and loot drops alongside valuable fish.
