WotLK: Dalaran Fishing Guide

el — Sat, 13 Sep 2008 15:18:14 +0000

The new Dalaran Fishing Guide provides detailed information about everything caught in the city, from Magic Eaters and Rusty Prison Keys, to Giant Sewer Rats and Gold Coins. Dalaran’s fishing is very rich and imaginative. I hope Dalaran is an indication of the variety us anglers will eventually see in other Northrend zones. Read more.

WotLK: Giant Sewer Rat

el — Fri, 12 Sep 2008 00:10:38 +0000

A very rare minipet, the Giant Sewer Rat, can be caught from Dalaran’s Underbelly (sewers).

Dalaran requires 430 fishing skill to cast, 525 to stop get-aways. The catch rate has not yet been confirmed, but I caught almost 600 fish before finding my first Giant Sewer Rat: This is not a common catch!

The rat binds when picked up, so can only be gained by the angler. This will trigger a confirmation, so be very careful when auto-looting and rapidly recasting.

Looting the Giant Sewer Rat triggers a message “[you] has earned the achievement !” – with no named achievement yet.

WotLK: Magic Eaters

el — Thu, 11 Sep 2008 14:08:41 +0000

The waters of Dalaran’s Underbelly contain a fish called Magic Eater. Eating the Magic Eater gives a random buff: Either “Wild Magic” or “Well Feed”:

Wild Magic turns you into a basilisk, locust, whelp, or whisp, and prevents you casting or attacking for 1 minute.
Well Feed gives +30 Stamina for 1 hour, plus randomly one of: +60 Attack Power, +30 Critical Rating, +30 Haste Rating, +12 MP5, or +35 Spell Power.

The positive buffs are not as good as the best cooked fish, but may be useful for anglers who like to idle in Dalaran. Unless they like to dodge: The surface waters of Dalaran contain Slippery Eel, which can be eaten raw for a +30 Dodge Rating.
