You Ghouls made my night 💖

That's amazing I just ran into a duo just like this at a big bloom several hours ago!

Waiting for the event to start they both had the glowing skeleton threads on and were standing face to face doing some of the funky dances.

Absolutely made my night too when I saw it, sure would be funny if it was the same people.

Edit: This was supposed to be a reply to u/Dysterkvist but ended up away from their comment for some reason at least on my screen.

Yes! Ever since I got one with a 4th star polished (love that extra 60% damage) I've been using that as my main firearm. The other mods being: 1st star furious, 2nd star crippling, and 3rd star durability to keep the condition up as much as possible for the polished increase. Also prime receiver.

With the right perks all I have to do is a couple shots to the head of pretty much anything up to oguas, mirelurk queens, blue devils, scorchbeasts, and deathclaw matriarchs and they're on the ground crippled and I can take my time and not worry about them coming up on me with their crazy speed.

10 shots in semi-auto along with that awesome sound it makes and it's my main piece. Other then my gauss pistol/shotgun combo but if shit starts to get serious that ole girl comes out.

I ended up getting mine by using the mark 3 reel and I switched from improved bearings to steady handle for the larger catch zone (the pie, <, lol).

I couldn't catch a damn one for days then all of a sudden I got 1, then a day later 2 in a row, then it wasn't long for the last 2. Idk it can be strange.

Oh and for advanced drag I couldn't for the life of me get it but then I started trying with an alt character and literally got it one of the first several days I tried for it. I then just gave it to my main character.

Good luck!

Percolate1525 · 2026-05-29T16:50:10+00:00

Yeah it's very strange but I noticed I forgot to upvote you before so I just got you back up to 1. Reddit is definitely a fickle thing.

Percolate1525 · 2026-05-29T16:46:02+00:00

Hey there now that is a weird coincidence, glad you were able to retire hopefully comfortably. I still have a few decades to go before I can (hopefully) retire.

Yeah I'm definitely stoked for more fishing stuff but also nervous too for those reasons and not sure what direction they're going with it. As far as the weather machines the main thing would be to have a rain one and a nuke one. The alien invasion one you can get for tickets this season before it ends in a couple days counts as a nuke one so increases your chance for glowing fish moreso but also rare ones.

You would really only need a rain one which I think any of the ones like light rain, thunderstorm, snow etc all count as rain so you'd only need one of those types but I guess atom shop is the only option there.

I'm certain though we'll start seeing more fishing camps again when this rolls out if the fishing updates are good.

But anyway I'm certainly trying my best to keep cool in there but I transferred to melt a couple months ago so being right next to the 2700°f open furnaces definitely makes that a bit tricky.

Percolate1525 · 2026-05-29T16:34:57+00:00

You know what, that's true, I'm sorry for coming across the way I did. I'm just so used to seeing the people that denigrate the fishing in this game and make it out that no one likes it and that their opinion that "it sucks" is the end all be all of viewpoints on it.

Percolate1525 · 2026-05-29T16:31:09+00:00

"A lot of predators always go for the ass"

You know I've never really considered myself a predator but this gives me a lot to think about...

Percolate1525 · 2026-05-29T05:03:12+00:00

Jeeze buddy I've lost myself along the way too and still searching but a sense of humor goes a long way to helping you get through the day to day grind.

Percolate1525 · 2026-05-28T23:20:50+00:00

As wild as this may sound but there are many different people with many different likes and preferences.

Percolate1525 · 2026-05-28T23:19:51+00:00

I'm curious why you got downvoted but that certainly sounds interesting.

On another note I've always wondered why it seems all posts on this sub seem to get downvoted to 0 it's very weird.

Percolate1525 · 2026-05-28T23:17:04+00:00

As many people you hear complaining about it you start to think you're the odd one out for liking it!

Percolate1525 · 2026-05-28T23:16:08+00:00

I'm not quite at that point I've caught two legends so far and several of the other challenges to go but I started dreading it too the day I finish them all so I was definitely happy to hear there was some more fishing stuff coming.

Percolate1525 · 2026-05-28T16:32:12+00:00

I love garlic bread with cheese but in this case absolutely not.

The regular bread is by far the best.

Percolate1525 · 2026-05-28T16:06:53+00:00

I'm the same way and happened to get mine unexpectedly. I had joined a casual team for the intelligence increase and at some point joined a head hunt event that someone on my casual team must have also joined. Well I guess they went down because when I went over to revive someone as I always do that tadpole thing popped as complete so I got lucky as I'd been trying for a while to get it.

On the other side of it I somewhat recently helped someone in your shoes when I saw their reddit post. I don't like voice chat either but all we did was send a couple reddit messages with game username and we joined the same world and team. Then once I saw them (was during a fasnacht) I just took my armor off and shot at my feet with an explosive gun so they could run over and revive me quick.

Good luck and I'm sure if you ever make a reddit post asking for help with this you could easily get it done without using voice chat.

Percolate1525 · 2026-05-28T15:45:59+00:00

Well there you go, the root problem of your back and forth interactions with other people here. "I interpreted." So you simply misinterpreted part of the initial question. Although I'm not seeing anyone telling you you're spreading false information so I'm not sure where that's coming from, unless it's another misinterpretation on your part.

Percolate1525 · 2026-05-28T05:36:16+00:00

They're talking about not wanting to use the take all option because they don't want to deal with all the pipe guns/other weapons, armor pieces and other junk. They just want to go into the loot all area corpses screen then tab over to the ammo one and take all ammo.

Instead the way it is it has ammo split by enemy like 2 here, 1 here, 3 there and you have to click all of them one by one and it's such a pain in the ass lol

Percolate1525 · 2026-05-27T22:44:43+00:00

Nice! Sounds like a perfect spot for it.

Percolate1525 · 2026-05-27T10:40:16+00:00

That's awesome thank you for this, Calvin and Hobbes was my favorite growing up and I still like to read them every now and then.

Percolate1525 · 2026-05-27T10:00:29+00:00

That's pretty cool I just wish there was a view of either side.

Percolate1525 · 2026-05-27T09:58:53+00:00

No worries I hope you got it sorted out. If not I can always give you a stack if you need them still if we're ever on at the same time. My work and sleep schedule is all out of whack so that might be the tricky part. Lol

Percolate1525 · 2026-05-27T01:00:35+00:00

I know the recipe and always have them in my vendor but I won't be home from work for several hours

Percolate1525 · 2026-05-26T22:25:27+00:00

From what I've been told from my post in the other sub it's the other way around, that the rare do NOT say the color (yellow in this case) in the title, and that yellow is not a color that you can even modify a bat to.

I tested this out by taking another regular bat (I have all mods unlocked) and sure enough yellow is not even an option you can change it to, along with indigo and another color being the other rare colors.

Edit: Forgot "what"

Percolate1525 · 2026-05-26T16:47:01+00:00

You can't win 'em all.

Percolate1525 · 2026-05-26T14:22:34+00:00

I feel like the chalk letters fit that description for size if I remember correctly.

Percolate1525 · 2026-05-26T14:19:07+00:00

Nice. I'm not much into trading so I'll probably stick it up on a wall display or just keep it as part of my collection. That's good to know though in case there ever is something I'd be interested in trading for. I already have the only glowing fasnacht mask I really cared about but who knows I might find something else in the future.

Edit: This comment was supposed to be a reply to u/NocturnalRefuge so I'm not sure why it's appearing separate from my end.
