    Was interested in seeing some other angler set ups in terms of templates. I know magery seems to be the go to and im assuming for good reason, but I bet there are some who use archery who are happy with it and keep up.

    Building my fishers now as a two man crew and will eventually complete the third. I'm thinking...

    Character 1
    • Magery
    • Meditation
    • Hiding
    • Fishing
    • Smithy
    • Tailoring
    • Eval Int
    Character 2
    • Fishing
    • Archery
    • Tactics
    • Anatomy
    • Healing
    • Music
    • Peace (for the runaway krakens)

    Logic here would probably dictate just make 3 mages all with smithy and tailoring. Easy to get those bods without having to log in and out (for the lazy) But I would also like to have music and peace on a char.

    I can definitely see the weakness of character two since magery has so much utility and takes up 1 less skill to get the kill done. I miss archery as a viable skill, haven't found that on UOR. So I'm hoping others have maybe found it useful for fishing up serpents and krakens just using vanquish or even GM made bows.

    Thank you!

    Most expensive fishing template:

    Magery
    Eval
    Med
    Resist
    Inscription
    Poisoning

    and yea Fishing :eek:

    I hunt solo, cast daemon (with scrolls) when a Loch Lake monster appears on net catch, I let daemon tank while I poison spam. Also cast me magic reflect & arch protection so I don't get interrupted.

    It was a nox fisher with tracking but then I thought about inscription and told myself why not, and there I am.

    If you want an optimized setting then go for either Archery or Magery, the rest is whack.

    Provocation on one char is nice if you plan on using a ton of nets, and so is Taming.


    Btw, i prefer Archers with slayer bows over Magery because of the higher damage.
    Make sure to have an option to heal damage in automated setups.

    I most certainly do have 70 extra fishing! JK...Actually, I meant 70 hiding. Seems useful enough so threw it on him.
