Large Lunker fish "griefing" issue

I will say I’m also confused why you gotta harpoon them in anyway, since you’re going to get the same loot if you just kill it, right?

I guess I’m not fishing in as populated places (or not in raids), so I haven’t run into the issue of them dying too fast yet, though I think giving them more HP wouldn’t hurt either, as long as they insta-die when you pull them out of water. Makes more sense and is more immersive, imo.

This is about efficiency in spawning them when people are working together.

More people looting means more Conchs being looted which means even more Lunkers get summoned. It becomes sustainable fishing
If people do it only with harpoons then an infinite amount of people can tag each Large Lunker.
If someone decides to attack the lunker then almost everyone is excluded from the loot because you cannot tag a 80k hp mob with as many people

The problem is the harpoon doesn’t tag them until they’re pulled onto the ground. Plus the people who kill them in the water could have the common sense to simply tag them instead of killing.
Then once they’re on the shore everyone can loot them without having to swim all over the place since they spawn at random locations.

But you can cast spells whilst using the harpoon.

I seem to be failing to explain the problem
I recommend joining a lunker farm group to get a first hand experience on what the problem is.

Do not worry it is very profitable to sell all the stuff you get from this, so it is worth your time

That’s not the issue. If the fish dies in a random spot in the water, everyone has to swim to it, then to the shore, spawn another one, and swim again. Just because 1-2 people kill it in the water.

Just increase the HP to 5 million or something. Once it’s on the shore it dies instantly anyway.

and you are summoning these non world quest lunkers how exactly?

Lunkers come from fishing up a conch or using 5 conch near a large lunker sighting, if you do that you are stealing somebody elses work.

This whole day and yesterday people are abusing the lunker spots and whole raidgroups by attacking the lunkers, so not a single other person which is harpooning gets loot any more.

This is hardcore griefing for 40 people and just a time waste. We need to fix that dilemma by banning griefing players (sabotage of gameplay) or fix the coin loot rules. Otherwise this whole activity is dead.

You don’t get the special loot if you dps them down. Has to be a harpoon kill.
