Additional Information:
• Better Fishing Rods increase the number of Sunken Chests that can be obtained through fishing. The maximum limit is 5 chests with the best rods.

• Using a Fishing Rod renders the player immobile until the fishing attempt ends.

• Fishing near other players grants a Luck bonus of 2.5% per player, up to a maximum of 15%.

• Each Fishing Rod has a maximum mastery level of 100. Keep your best rod equipped when crafting the next one, as it is required to unlock the upgrade. Once unlocked, you can switch back to a different rod if desired.

• Higher Fishing Rod Mastery improves control during the fishing minigame and slightly increases the speed at which the progress bar fills.

Enchantments:
Enchantments are special attributes that can be applied to Fishing Rods by interacting with the Dragon Talon Sage and using a Scroll. Baitless Catch gives a 2% × enchantment level chance to avoid consuming bait, Experience Sharing grants nearby players 5% × level of your fishing experience while you also keep the full XP, Fish Scanner increases the final luck factor by 2% × level, Resilient Fishing Rod increases rod durability by 2% × level, and Tasty Bait raises the chance for fish to bite faster by 2% × level. Unlike Swords and Guns, fishing rods can also receive Skills and Abilities, and they can additionally be enchanted with Blessings and Curses.

Skills:
Skills are special effects that can be activated on Fishing Rods after filling the Power Bar by catching three fish. Reel Boost temporarily increases rod strength for 10 seconds, Calming Technique reduces fish movement speed by 50% for 10 seconds, and Conserve Bait lowers the chance of consuming bait by 25% for 120 seconds. While a skill is active, the Power Bar can still be partially refilled by catching more fish, allowing long-duration skills such as Conserve Bait to remain active for longer.

Abilities:
Abilities are passive effects that permanently enhance a Fishing Rod without requiring activation. Fishing Rod Protector prevents the fishing line from snapping once per catch, instead increasing catch progress by 30% and calming the fish, making difficult catches more forgiving and easier to complete.

Curses:
Curses are high risk, high reward enchantments that can be applied to Fishing Rods. Curse of the Leviathan may trigger an unknown event when catching a specific fish species. Curse of the Terrorshark starts each catch with 20% extra progress but causes fish to panic much faster. Curse of the Whale increases the final fish weight by 15%, but each catch has a chance to consume 2 baits instead of 1.

Blessings:
Blessings are powerful passive enchantments for Fishing Rods that provide stronger bonuses than standard Abilities. Blessing of Bait Efficiency gives a 20% chance to avoid consuming materials when crafting bait, while Blessing of an Angler's Treasure increases the daily treasure limit by 3, allowing more treasure rewards to be obtained each day.
