[SPOILER] Anglers and Mutants quest

[Delphine]

Of course you Will havé to pay to get some once you'll havé unlocked them !! When an update is crappy, everything is crappy until the end, even the reward

I was afraid so after reading the word 'unlocked' in the screenshot.
Ow well, just another reason not to be bothered too much about this quest.
I'll just let my fishersim do some fishing and see how far he gets.
It's a nice change for him instead of gardening 24/7

dont yay yet ... now it will take longer to get the LPs of the whole shebang like ghost hunting. they could have had a separate fish list !!

Won't be long until all the hobbies are 'upgraded' to 8 levels.

Does it at least reward us with 5 LPs for a complete like ghosthunting?

I too guess this is where they're taking hobbies down to (more work, less rewards).

Yes, it does give 5 LPs for the new collection.

Frankly I find this "quest" a big anti-climax after the Halloween Ghost Hunting, the Christmas story line and the New Year's Eve quest. Some sunglasses and shoes? Sheesh.

This was the lamest reward ever. You think you get your own fishing pond or even fish tanks.

now the fish tanks would have been worth it, and the singing fish.

How long will it take to get a fishersim from level 2 to level 8 for this quest?

Too long

Seriously, if you keep doing the 4minute option non-stop, you might just get there in a week or so. Using LP obviously speeds things along, but the rewards aren't worth it.

Once you get to level 5, it takes a minimum of 13 hours and 20 minutes to get to the next level (without using LP). So, from level 5 to level 8 takes 40 hours (and you still need to get to level 5 first of course).

And, even when you do finally get to the highest level, it could still take a while before you manage to find the last fish.

All that for a pair of ugly sunglasses (which you have to spend additional LP on even if you get them) and a pair of manky boots (than can only be worn by women).

You'll probably get to level 5 pretty quickly, but after that you only earn 0.5% for every 4 minutes or 1% for every hour. That means to get 100% so you can get to level 6, 7 & 8, it's going to take 14-15 hours of constant 4 minute fishing or 100 hours of one hour fishing per level. That's assuming you are there every time the bubble is ready to pop, plus allowing for all the times Simsie eats your Sim, which takes longer.

Edit: LOL! Horde Prime and I answered the same question at the same time

I got to level 8 today by repeatedly visiting the 'Another Sim Town', fishing there at 3x1 hour sessions, using the 3 LPs from the glitch.

Wasn't overwhelmed with the reward:-(
