Fishing Party Buff

Hear me out, what if fishing within 10 meters of another person fishing gave like a 10 second buff to fishing? Or fishing could craft an item that gave people around you a buff to catch rare fish? Might bring back some of the social magic we’ve been missing.

How about 15 yards? How about 5 skill points? How about 10 minutes, with a 10 minute CD so it can be continually refreshed?

It already exists, and has since MoP.

It hasn’t changed the sociability of fishing in the slightest. Fishing is, IRL, a solitary pursuit. No reason it shouldn’t also be in-game. I don’t need a bunch of clumsy townies stomping around, stealing my pools, and scaring off the fish.

That’s a good idea. It would likely be triggered something you add to your pole or carried with you and used, like a toy or something.

I don’t think it should be an earned item. It should just happen to encourage social interaction. And fishing is definitely not a solitary pursuit. It’s an extremely social hobby and before you argue otherwise think about the people you go fishing with.

Myself. That’s who.

Like I said, solitary.
