Fish-Fry Event CONCEPT

The Fish-Fry event concept is similar to most events but deals with fishing. Whether you fish in Wizard City, Krokotopia, Marylebone, or any other world, all fishes caught will sync with the competitor regardless of the fishing spot.

As such, the event is relatively simple. Just fish!

The rarer the fish, the more points you earn!
While Catch of the Day fishes will be worth twice the amount of points!
Using any type of elixir to boost your chances will reduce the number of points you earn. However, an energy elixir will discredit the next round of fishes you catch!
Meaning you can only compete ONCE A DAY.

Just like the Deckathalon, you climb your way up the leaderboard hopefully scoring some unique rewards! Don’t worry if you don’t win the top prize, you will still be rewarded with rewards for participating!

Fish-Fry Event Concept UPDATE:

When posting this online, I realized that competing with energy will be unfair in terms of wizard levels. In order to compensate for this I've decided to SCRAP the initial idea of competing with energy.

FIXES:

General

There is a set amount of fish you can enter at a time (max. 8). And depending on the max points you instead receive the item from the tier as a reward PER set.

Fishing Sets

Instead of fishing with energy, you have a set maximum of 8 fish you can enter. While depending on the set, the amount of points will multiply depending on the same fish and/or catch of the day fishes. Whilst points generally being given for length, and rarity of the set of fish.

Fishing Rods / Fishing

I've also decided to consider revamping the fishing system as a whole, making it more reliable than the current system in Wiz currently.

Instead of the normal way of fishing with casted lures from our hands, that will instead be the start. Eventually leading up to the ability to use differing fishing rods depending on the world and area. Some having unique benefits such as extra range and weather-gist (the ability to be used on both lava and water.) And some with disadvantages such as lava-gist (the ability to only be used only on lava) and water-gist (the ability to be used only on water.)

Depending on your level of fishing you also be able to qualify for different fishing rods.

Rewards

Tickets, gold, and randomly generated crowns will still be rewarded to willing competitors.
But the energy gear given via pvp arena will be scrapped and made into a more flexible energy set depending on your wizard's level.

Summary:

In general this will not only be an event, but a complete overhaul of fishing in general making fishing more reliable and efficient than it currently is.
