Fishing Zones Explained

by Karpfen and Paghur

What Are Fishing Zones?

A Fishing Zone is an area where the same types of fish can be caught, meaning it shares the same loot table.

The loot table determines which fish species are available and the chances of catching each of them.

Interestingly, many Fishing Zones consist of multiple separate areas that are not physically connected but still share the same loot table.

Example: Valencia Sea - Depth 5

The Valencia Sea - Depth 5 Fishing Zone includes areas that are quite far apart. One part is located near Valencia, while another is all the way west, near Tigris Island.

Even though these locations are distant, the fish available and their catch rates remain exactly the same.


What Are Depths?

Many Fishing Zones have similar names but are distinguished by a Depth number.

Each Depth represents a separate Fishing Zone with its own loot table.

The Depth number increases as you move further from the shore.

  • Higher Depths generally offer better chances to catch Rare Fish.
  • Depth numbers are mainly used to help us identify and refer to Fishing Zones more easily.

Example: Zenato Sea Depths

Let’s take a look at Zenato Sea as an example:

When you hover over a fishing area (like the green areas in the screenshot), all locations that share the same loot table will light up on the map.
