Fishing: the quiet way to get rich

Every body of water hides custom fish the vanilla game doesn't have. Some are worthless. Some pay a week's town upkeep in one cast.

How it works

Catching

Just fish

Any rod, any water. Custom fish arrive alongside vanilla catches — each has a name, a size, and a rarity you'll see on the item.

Rarities

Five tiers

Junk → Common → Rare → Epic → Legendary. Size varies within a species too — a record-length Common can outshine a runt Epic in a contest.

Selling

Cash them in

Fish sell for real money — /emf shop opens the sell menu. Stack it with the Fisherman job and every cast pays twice: once for catching, once at the market.

Contests

When they run

Weekends: hour-long contests with rotating goals. Sundays: a 45-minute "most fish" derby. The server announces starts in chat — drop what you're doing, grab a rod.

Winning

Depending on the contest type it's biggest fish, most fish, or a specific species. Leaderboard runs live in chat; winners take prizes. Bring bait, pick your spot early, and don't fish next to the person who always wins. Or do. Drama is content.

Commands

/emf shop — sell your catch · /emf top — contest standings while one runs · /emf help — the rest.
