Thoughts on the new Fishing Rods?

Inb4 people get upset and say they are quitting poe.

I have yet to see one verified.

I don't see a "verified" on that pic (in the original post linked)?

So probably a photo-shop trawl attempt?

Not verified indeed

/thread

I don't get it, how would it be photoshopped?

Quote this post, you'll see it leads to a normal item link, not some externally hosted image. I'll repost it as verified when I finish crafting it, currently just scour chancing to see if there is a unique variant.

So far it seems to have two uses; fishing, and gaining excessive cast speed. Not sure if there's more.

'item added for a supporter'

btw !verified == not being taken serious

for all that months you trolled about fishing youve managed to produce ZERO evidence so dont be surprised noone gives a damn about what you say about that

I haven't trolled at all, fishing has been reel all along. Like I said, I'll post it again when I'm done crafting it. If you expect me and the lucky few who have found them to just sit on them for hours without crafting them just so you can.... I don't even know what.... then your expectations are flawed.

Oh, and as for no one giving a damn, I have an inbox full of people asking how to get a rod and what to do with it, you're only trolling yourself if you think that rods aren't real.

no evidence == wasted air

Monsta can't be trolling. Fishing rods DO exist. The proof are the fishing rods linked in this thread. These is NO way to "hack" a link to an item on these forums. This is not photoshop, rods DO exist.

Or, if you don't believe, try googling "how to link a non-existing item on PoE official forums", see what you'll find :)

oops double post :/

sans 'verified' - you all paste the same items. there are still links to items introduced by accident in one of the old patches, you can just copy them to new post and re-use them as long as you want:

Well, parts of the puzzle u told me about r wrong, rmmbr the lab? rmmbr talking to fairgraves? rmmbr eternaling the helm? rmmbr rmmbr rmmbr,,,,, wut were those for, and for those who have found the rod, did they rly do those steps u told me about?

You asked me what I did to get the rod to drop. I did all those things, and the rod dropped, not only that but I've wasted the past couple of days trying to get one for you too. So what's the issue? I made it very clear long before I responded to any of your questions that there could well be other ways to get the rod to drop.

Here's an idea. Completely ignore everything I told you. Don't take any of the steps I suggested, and don't use any of the gear that I told you to. Then come back and tell me you found a rod.

And as for your final question, I think that's for you to ask them, not me. Perhaps they'd like to go back over the advice I posted and see if they were following it at the time, either inadvertently or intentionally. I'm willing to bet all the currency I have that at least part of the advice I gave was totally legit.

Great, except mine is white and the other was yellow, plus if you actually take the time to look at the individual posts in question you'll clearly lead to different links. You conspiracy theorists aren't even worth wasting time on, rods are legit and that's all there is to it.
