Big gulps, huh?

Welp, see ya!

Kommentar von flawlessa

Head to the front gates of Stormwind, then go fish down in the moat.

Some casts will net the usual catfish and minnows from Stormwind waters, but on others you will receive a Royal Monkfish.

Every time you catch one, open your bags and right-click the fish to "filet" it. Sometimes you'll get gray items like Rusty Keys or Slimy Rings. Eventually, you'll get the needed Precious Locket.

Kommentar von 708248

This one took a bit longer than I expected.

Out of 63 fish caught, 18 were Monkfish. 18/63 = 28.5% chance of Monkfish

18 Monkfish = 9 Rusty Keys, 8 Slimy Ring (gray items) and finally 1 locket. 1/18 = 5.5 %

It's possible I just had very bad luck. Anyone else getting far better or worse results?

Kommentar von ypsllon

Worst fishing daily quest ever!don't bother it with!
After 13 Slimy rings and 11 set of rusty keys, the damn locket finally dropped
Maybe it was my bad luck

this will be the one to skip!

Kommentar von RathmaDK

My experience of the first time for this quest:

Recived the Precious Locket on catch number 151 taking about 50 minutes total.

Skill 450 + 33 (Mastercraft Kalu'ak Fishing Pole with +3 Fishing Line).

Raw Longjaw Mud Snapper: 71
Raw Brilliant Smallfish: 14
Raw Bristle Whisker Catfish: 18
Royal Monkfish: 48
Slimy Ring: 25
Set of Rusty Keys: 22

I don't have a problem with a little farming for a Daily Quest, but this was rediculious.

Kommentar von 131781

Absolutely the worst daily quest ever.

This quest on average will take much longer time to finish as compare to any weekly raid quest. And it needs more focus and concentration also.

And at the end, you will get 7 gold and some pieces of craps.

Kommentar von Tons

85 throws. (started at around 280 skill with lure, finished at 295)

Raw Longjaw Mud Snapper: 51
Raw Brilliant Smallfish: 15
Raw Bristle Whisker Catfish: 19
Royal Monkfish: 37

Spend around 25 mins getting.. Just ridiculous, if it weren't for me being on skype with a friend I would have skipped it.

Kommentar von 54444

Easy quest in my opinion. Fishing 446 + 23 (Seth's Graphite Fishing Pole & Truesilver Fishing Line). 4 tries, 2 Royal Monkfish. Got it in the second monkfish.

Kommentar von 48485

This quest can take a very long time. Took me 108 casts and 17 filleted Royal Monkfish for the Locket to drop.

Kommentar von 255123

Can be completed as an apprentice fisherman without lures

Initial skill level 17 final level 64. Of the 47 casts all but 14 bought up junk. 8 of those 14 were Royal Monkfish.

Kommentar von kicken

It would appear that even though the item is not unique, if you have a Royal Monkfish in your bags you will be unable to catch another one until you fillet it. I just tired to see if I could do a little "mindless fishing" while reading forums an catch a few of them to use after a while. Doesn't work.

Kommentar von 66148

558 fishing skill (450+108 from gear/buffs)
39 casts (+3 missed casts)
8 Raw Brilliant Smallfish
5 Raw Bristle Whisker Catfish
22 Raw Longjaw Mud Snapper
1 Bloated Mud Snapper
8 Set of Rusty Keys
11 Slimy Ring
And finally... 1 Precious Locket

Kommentar von terminalman

Does the Bag of Shiny Things kinda bite or what? So far my take from three fishing bags is about 5 silver (total for the three of them). At 80 the 7g40s and the fishing skillup are fine so I can't figure out what's the point of the Bag.

Has anyone gotten anything worthwhile from the Bag of Shiny Things?

Kommentar von 477031

3rd cast.. got the royal. it had the locket

either they changed the drop rate or i got super lucky

Kommentar von iamcal

Finally got it on my 47th cast:

14 Raw Longjaw Mud Snapper
12 Raw Bristle Whisker Catfish
6 Raw Brilliant Smallfish
8 Royal Monkfish w/ Slimy Ring
6 Royal Monkfish w/ Set of Rusty Keys
1 Royal Monkfish w/ Precious Locket

I'll be avoiding this daily until they change the drop rate.

Kommentar von netto

50min farming soo far! and nothing...

so, 10min more to get it, total:
121 fishs
33 Royal Monkfish

Kommentar von 143880

Fishing skill 1 to start with ended up with skill 33 when I got the fish that contained the Precious Locket.

Guess I just had luck reading the other comments...

Kommentar von Profits

Cast like 7 times and got it on my first Monkfish. RNG was in my favor, I guess. =P

Kommentar von 630055

Oh Em Gee. After 70! Monkfish, I finally got the locket!

Kommentar von 716313

Was very lucky, got it first time I cast!

Kommentar von Yunikorn

Read through the posts the first time I got this quest and thought, "oh no!" Then, after getting the locket in the first few casts each time I did the quest, thought, "that's not so bad!" Until today:

56+ casts yielded:
-30 Raw Longjaw Mud Snapper
-14 Raw Bristle Whisker Catfish
-11 Raw Brilliant Smallfish
-17 Royal Monkfish w/ Slimy Ring
-13 Royal Monkfish w/ Set of Rusty Keys
- 1 Royal Monkfish w/ Precious Locket

Thank goodness I have a pet that eats fish!

Kommentar von 681616

I had to catch 49 Royal Monkfish to find the Precious Locket. I didn't keep track of all my casts and catches, but needless to say I was fishing for a good hour. The Bag of Shiny Things contained 74 copper, an Empty Snail Shell, and a Bright Baubles. So for my effort I was awarded the 7 gold and bag full of crap.

Now that I've completed this step of the Fish or Cut Bait achievement, I won't be doing this quest again.

So I agree, worst daily ever :(

Kommentar von PoohBah

65 crap fish caught
18 quest fish caught
1 stupid locket

I will NOT be doing this idiotic quest again.

Kommentar von Xarlequin

This is simply ridicilous...
Got it in my 29nth royal monkfish....with a droprate of around 30% that's near 90 throws.
Simply ridicilous and I will not bother do this quest more than once untill the droprate have been fixed.

Kommentar von 717685

Worst daily ever ... just got it on my 53rd FILET. o_O I think I'll be skipping this one in the future!

Kommentar von Nyteyes

Took me over 20 minutes and over 70 casts to finish this daily. NEVER doing this one again! Waste of time and reward! >.<

Kommentar von Paulosio

Annoying as hell...
450 fishing skill

29 raw longjaw mudsnapper
9 raw brilliant smallfish
8 raw bristle catfish
17 royal monkfish

1 precious Locket

Kommentar von Sythen

Longjaw Mud Snapper 34
Royal Monkfish 30
Brilliant Smallfish 13
Bristle Whisker Catfish 12

Unless they change the drop rate this is a quest to do only once for the achievment in my opinion.

Kommentar von ToxDrawace

35 - Raw Longjaw Mud Snapper
10 - Raw Bristle Whisker Catfish
9 - Raw Brilliant Smallfish
28 - Royal Monkfish ---> 14x Set of Rusty Keys, 13x Slimy Ring, 1x Precious Locket

That comes down to 82 casts.
Out of 82 casts I fished up 28 Royal Monkfish. That's a 34.15% drop rate.
Out of those 28 Royal Monkfish I obtained 1 Precious Locket. That's a 3.57% drop rate.
Also, 1/82 (my 1 precious locket divided by my 82 casts) is about .0121

So I had about a 1.21% chance to get the locket each cast

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
******
EDIT: BIG mistake. the monkfish are caught only with other fish, so my casts were actually 28 less. 82-28 = 54
******

So the numbers again are
Drop rate of Royal Monkfish: 28/54 = 51.85%
Drop rate of Precious Locket from filleting a Royal Monkfish: 1/28 = 3.57%
Drop rate of Precious Locket from casts: 1/54 = 1.85%

So about a 1.85% chance to get the locket each cast. Not even that much better.

Of course since then I did it on my alt and got the locket on my 9th cast. :-P

Kommentar von XSCounter

Most annoying daily...

Kommentar von IceLily

FYI: You MUST have 2 BAG SPACES when opening the Monkfish. If not you can fish for hours and not get the locket.

Kommentar von 127008

Got it after 27 keys and 21 rings...

Royal Monkfish has a fair drop rate but I believe Kostbares Medaillon was not supposed to have drop rate to multiply your pain inside Monkfish.

Kommentar von Ooglepants

39 Longjaw Mud Snappers
14 Bristle Whisker
7 Brilliant Smallfish
17 lb Catfish
19 lb Catfish
14 sets of Rusty Keys
10 Slimy Rings

one Precious *&^% Locket

Kommentar von rpalmeri

This is awful.
Twenty minutes fishing, over 50 fish, and NOT ONE MONKFISH!
This is a great quest ... to avoid.
Kortash, Sentinels

Kommentar von Kaaosa

Raised my skill from 1-100 on this quest. Still haven't gotten the quest item. And just when my friends had finally convinced me that fishing was a rewarding skill to have. lol

Kommentar von 506141

Hi,

Alright I finally got to the bottom of this thing!

all non-shamans and DK's, buy yourself elixir of water walking

you have to fish under the arches of the stormwind bridge, the closest possible to the city

your drop rate of monkfish should then be of 50%. I'm getting the locket out of my 5th-10th monkfish then

I was as frustrated as you before: the trick is really to fish under the arches and nowhere else!
Cheers!

Kommentar von purpleangelcat

So far I have

Longjaw Mud Snapper 35
Brilliant Smallfish 8
Bristle Whisker Catfish 8
Set of Rusty Keys 8
Slimy Ring 12

I have been fishing for over 20 minutes and no Locket yet....don't think I will be doing this quest again unless they change the drop rate.

Kommentar von Thurissan

hmmm
http://www.thirstycells.com/big_gulp25.jpg

Kommentar von sumpsychochic

Longjaw Mud Snapper 20
Royal Monkfish 14
Brilliant Smallfish 3
Bristle Whisker Catfish 11

I did this pretty quickly actually. Took less than 15 minutes.

Kommentar von 403288

Using the following macro for fishing will keep you from having to hunt through your bags for the fish:

#showtooltip Fishing
/use Royal Monkfish
/cast Fishing

If a Royal Monkfish is in your bags it will fillet it, otherwise it will cast for the next fish.

Kommentar von nirces

One thing to watch out for:

i did this with exacty two spaces free in my bag - one for the Monkfish and one when filletted for the key / ring / locket

after a hundred or so fish i tried emptying my bags some more

the locket drops in addition to key / ring, you need atleast two bag spaces free once the monkfish is caught to complete the quest.

No error message is given warning you of this.

Kommentar von 365445

Guys, I have suspicion that doing this quest successfuly needs at least 3 free slots in your bags. I was doin it like 1 hour w/ only two. Either Im really unlucky or its just true. Point is even when locket drops, another grey item key/ring drops too.. so it needs another slot. If you have trouble doin this, better check your bags for free slots.

Kommentar von 365445

rofl, same problem in very same time :-)

Kommentar von 144220

As of 14 Dec 2010 the drop rate was increased. This is in the patch notes:

The droprate on the Precious Locket from Royal Monkfish in Stormwind waters for the Fishing daily quest "Big Gulp" has been increased.

Kommentar von Ooglepants

looks like it has been FIXED by Blizz. My FIRST CAST I caught the fish, opened it...Locket!

Kommentar von Arzion

Maybe I was lucky, or they fixed the droprate in the maintainence this week. About 10 throws, 3 monkfishes and I got it

Kommentar von TheMaelstorm

To be clear, you do not need high level skill for any part of it. I started at 1 skill and when I got it I was 16.
(btw, I dont think its neccessary for everyone to cast their results. It's random, you can get it at first or hundred and first)

Kommentar von DrDVS1

Mr. LeCraft, you said you were going to make fishing more fun. You lied.

Kommentar von penguirrel

This quest hates my server. Almost a month since release of it and we have never had it come up and I check it daily. My achievement sits uncompleted.

edit: 12/23/10 is the first time is was offered finally. Only took Blizzard a full month to get it to come up.

Kommentar von 334748

1 Longjaw mud snapper
1 Royal monkfish
1 Precious locket lol

Kommentar von mattingly31

All the blogs that say empty your bags are correct. Had two slots open and fished for almost and hour and then read the comments - emptied my bags to 8 open slots and on the first cast got the locket

Kommentar von Xbander

Big gulps huh?

Well, see ya later!

Kommentar von adamkade

Was just about to give up on my 7th fish and bingo! People, the only thing more boring then casting 80 times is writing on this forum that you cast it 80 times. Just leave it. But I guess its always in one's mind: "Maybe it will be there if I caste one more time it will be there."

Kommentar von 464052

lololol
this took me 5 tries,
fishing skill below 150
4 fish
1 monkfish
first monkfish
maybe they changed the drop rate?

Kommentar von r0b126

I rarely ever try leveling fishing skill. Got it on the 2nd cast at the front of stormwind with 127 fishing skill.

Kommentar von HisTechnoAngel

So I apparently never bothered to fish, EVER, on my hunter... working on this right now from skill level 1. We shall see how long it takes for this to drop!

Kommentar von TheCuter

Call it beginners luck, call it want you want. This was my first fishing daily, I haver a grand total of 40 in fishing. I flew down to the moat, cast my line approxiamtely 2.3 meters into the water, and caught one Raw Longjaw Mud Snapper and one Royal Monkfish. I had been reading the comments on here so i thought "oh well, I guess I wont get any locket from this one." And I think you all know how the story is going to end. I got the locket on my first try. GJ? I guess ^^

Kommentar von 649149

I fished for the locket for about 30 minutes with only two spots open in my inventory. I read in the comments it might have something to do with bag space so I went back to SW and got rid of a bunch of stuff. Went back to fishing and the locket popped up my 3rd cast.

May have nothing to do with bag space and was maybe just a fluke but whenever I do this quest again I will do it with lots of clear space in my bags :)

Kommentar von 852025

I got about 18 of these fishes and it still didnt drop but I had just one free slot so I put few items to the bank and then it dropped on the first time, so maybe it will help you.

Kommentar von 95882

After 44 fish I gave up... then I tried another daily quest and couldn't do it. I then realized I was in a raid group the whole time. After smashing my face onto the keyboard a few times I left the raid group and caught the quest item on my third cast. Raid groups are OP.

Kommentar von 189321

Today was my first attempt at this with my lvl 23 mage. I started with a skill level 1 and caught one monkfish at skill level 26. He had the locket.

I am posting this to encourage anyone starting fishing that you can accomplish this daily. Good luck and Happy Killing!

Kommentar von 1026168

Got it at lvl 32 fishing on a lvl 12 char. Came with a Schleimiger Ring. Won't let me wear the Schleimiger Ring. :'(

Enjoy.

Kommentar von Eido

Started quest with no skill in fishing (as well as no lures or any fishing skill boosts).

Got the Königlicher Seeteufel, containing the Kostbares Medaillon, on my 39th cast, with the vendor-bought Angelrute, in the Stormwind entrance mote.

As for speculation with bag space: I had over 2 slots available when doing this quest.

Kommentar von tnkrbll

its funny i read all these comments about how long and annoying this one is.. then i go and literally catch 3 frogs and 1 fish and with that one it carried the locket. kinda made me laugh.

Kommentar von Lorleen

Started with no fishing skill as others before me, hit 38 shortly before I finally caught fhe fish underneath the bridge. Good luck!
