Recommendation & TL;DR:

This is a new fishing line enchantment for your Fishing Pole. Initially, it has no effect, it requires adding two types of Threads to buff your Skill & Perception up to +100. This effect is later shared with all Algari Weaverlines used on your Warband's fishing poles.

ONLY SPIN THREADS INTO ONE ALGARI WEAVERLINE (USED ON A POLE) ON ONE CHARACTER UNTIL THE STATS ARE CAPPED AT +100!
(Reflected by achieving 100 Algari Seekerthread and 100 Algari Anglerthread)
This is a new tailor-crafted fishing line in The War Within. The required Khaz Algar Tailoring skill to learn the recipe from the Tailoring trainer went through many changes during Alpha/Beta, and the most recent one was an increase to 50. I'm not sure what the intentions for all these changes were, but the craft being available later again might help players wait for Engineers to craft the new Aqirite Fisherfriend Fishing Pole, which assumedly will be the players' preferred pole for the enchant.

The most interesting thing about the Algari Weaverline is the possibility to spin in Algari Anglerthread and Algari Seekerthread to permanently increase your Khaz Algar Fishing Skill & Perception by up to 100, which is extremely nice because the Azj-Kahet zone recommends Skill 375. You can fish Threads in all Khaz Algar waters or purchase them from Captain Oathmyt for 10x Mereldar Derby Mark each (only available on Saturdays when the Hallowfall Fishing Derby is active).

Another exciting part is that all your other characters can benefit from these increased stats as well when their Fishing Pole is enchanted with an Algari Weaverline!
Similar to MoP Remix's Cloak of Infinite Potential, Threads work as character-specific currencies and are summarized in your Algari Weaverline aura. But every 10 Threads (one type) spun in, achievements like 10 Algari Anglerthread will pop, and from now on provide these stats for all your characters' Algari Weaverlines.

There are several issues and I hope they can fix them or find a different solution to avoid them:

The achievements are "account-wide", but right now that's just about the character with the most spun-in Threads. When I have two characters with Weaverlines with 10 Algari Anglerthread each, I won't see the achievement for 20 Threads. I hope that's not intended. Otherwise, it makes the recommendation up there even more important.
You can only benefit from the Weaverline stats when the actual pole in your profession slot has the enchant. So switching between the Underlight Angler (for benefits like water walking, water breathing, etc.) and a more up-to-date pole (e.g. Aqirite Fisherfriend) will only provide the stats with an Algari Weaverline applied to both of them.
When you're switching poles, for the Algari Weaverlines and Threads you have to be aware, that you can't "target" a specific pole in your inventory. They will be applied to the Pole that's in your profession slot while you use them.
Just a guess, but I think when you replace an old pole with and upgrade Alagari Weaverline with a new one (with a new Weaverline), the new one will start at zero and you would waste a ton of Threads when you apply them to the new one. You still have the benefits of the stats provided by the achievements, but no progress until you would catch up. This means you better make sure you always have your old pole "equipped" when you apply more Threads until you're capped. When you're not applying Threads, you can use whatever pole you prefer.

All these things only lead to one idea: I want to see fishing lines being separated from poles (in real life they are also not tied forever) by making them items we equip in another profession slot (for Fishing we only have one so far, so I suggested this and mentioned Fishing Hats as a third slot).
It would easily solve most of the issues (Do I wait with spinning in Threads until I get the new best pole so I only need one Algari Weaverline, or will I immediately enchant an old pole to get the stats? Do I have the correct pole equipped so my Threads are applied to the correct Weaverline? etc.)

When combined with the new Engineering rod Aqirite Fisherfriend this can really increase the drop rate of the rarer fish through the perception boost.

Also don't neglect 100 Algari Seekerthread/100 Algari Anglerthread from Algari Seekerthread/Algari Anglerthread - which is a war bound wide achievement, but progress is character specific!

Make sure you funnel all of these to your main to avoid wasting progress.

Just a notification. This item is consumed on use.
Didn't really see that anywhere but there you go.

Comment by Neuydrs

Can you combine the weaverline with the Enchant Tool - Algari Perception enchant ?
Or is it already considered as an enchant ?

Comment by Sorrelia

Do you need this enchanted on your active rod in order to catch Seekerthread/Anglerthread? Or can you catch it before you have a Weaverline equipped?

Comment by Blaen

Just be aware in order to start adding Anglerthread and Seekerthread's you must first apply your Weaverline to a fishing pole.

Comment by Jensis

All these guides and comments about how this thing works, but no one actually tells you HOW TO GET IT.

It's a tailor crafted item, but you can't buy it on the AH. You have to get it through crafting orders.

It requires 100 Artisan's Acuity, 50 Mosswool thread, and 500 spool of Weaverthread. Mats cost me around 5000 gold on my server.

Comment by sammycupcake

It can only be applied to ONE ROD, the threads doesnt share across multiple rods

Comment by Squ1d

I crafted mine and applied it to my fishing pole and used 2 of one thread and 1 of the other(I don't remember which) but I see no indicator of any of them. Is there any way to see where these are applied?

Comment by Soreleyn

I wish we could've had an extra profession gearslot for this. I crafted it but I'm not using it yet because I dont wanna "waste" it on an uncommon quality fishing pole tool? That just feels bad. I also dont know if it's safe to put it on a rare quality one that I might later wish to recraft/upgrade..

Comment by Wolfyw

can this be used on the underlight angler? cause like why would anyone use a different rod

Comment by conjor

Since this item is Warbound, I can confirm that you can have this item crafted on an alt and sent to you main, thus saving the 100 Artisan's Acuity on your main.

Comment by FlipperPA

Are poles still actually a thing? I'm still using my pole from Legion, the Artifact. Should I just apply this enchant to that pole? Is there any newer pole that offers more of an advantage?

Comment by FreeScout324

You can apply a new algari weaverline on a second pole & it will have the stats of your first weaverline pole.
just tested

Comment by Geddoe

It really sucks that it's a consumable that is easy to replace by mistake (enchant with something else, change the rod) that requires a rather difficult to come by Artisan's Acuity. There is also nowhere in game that explains any of that. You gotta infer from the Weaverthreads themselves that this thing even exists in the first place. Such a confusing design.

Comment by NickJ

And the pointless over complication of professions continues! Hats off to the people who do this !@#$ cuz i find it obnoxiously tedius.

Comment by Catch22

Morning nice day for fishing ain't it! Hu ha!

You can get a 120 Perception Tool enchant from the AH. The weaverline counts as an enchantment. So you cannot have both.

You will likely want to acquire atleast near that amount of threads (over 100) before it makes sense to switch over.

Grab a seat when your fishing and relax. It makes the Buffs much better when your relaxed, and you don't feel as Cursed, when things go bad.

Comment by bigfatdan

Ok. After reading through everything I now see that this is one more profession complication that I can ignore.

Comment by f07gano

I just tested recrafting my Aqirite Fisherfriend, and it did keep the buffs from my Algari Weaverline, Algari Seekerthread, and Algari Anglerthread.

Comment by puleva4ever

As far as I know there isn't an obvious and easy way to know how many you have already applied to your Algari Weaverline. I've found a way to check it.

Open the achievements window (Y) and type in the search bar on the top right: "Algari Seekerthread" or "Algari Anglerthread", click the highest number it comes up (it is the current achievement in progress).
There you will see the amount already applied.
You can even check the box "Track" to see it in your objective tracker.

Note: The achievement is warbound shared, but the actual Algari Seekerthread or Algari Anglerthread applied are fishing rod specific. So this would only be accurate if you only apply these to a single fishing rod aka. one character.

Comment by sullivankyle72

my question: so i have 120 perception enchantment applied to my {Aqirite Fisherfriend} 576 (3 stars) now by rejecting this enchanted perception and applying the {Algari Weaverline} which to say the least i only have 17 {Algari Anglerthread} and 8 of {algari seekerthread} ; so if i was to apply this newly enhanced aura that pops out every time i fish; is it MORE EFFECTIVE THAN THE PERCEPTION ENCHANT? MY GUT SAYS YES BUT I AM NOT 100% SURE! i feel like this special fishing aura has more love in it than a three star perception enchant would? call me crazy but there must be a reason why there is a designated enchant for fishing now? no?

Comment by Iceveiled

This game has made me not want to do professions since Legion. There's so much to do otherwise, stop making professions require a codex to begin to comprehend. It should be a fun thing on the side, not a total headache scavenger hunt and wallet draining AH fetch quest.
