Walkthrough[edit]

The point of the event is to earn more points than your opponents, either by catching more fish or higher quality fish.

  • To participate, it is required to sign up, earning the Tournament Participant.png Tournament Participant effect.
  • The fish can be caught either from open water or the fishing nodes in the event area.
  • Catching fish will grant different amounts of Tournament Points.png Tournament Points:
    • Junk — 0 points
    • Basic — 1 point
    • Fine — 1 point
    • Masterwork — 1 point
    • Rare — 3 points
    • Exotic — 3 points
    • Legendary — x[verification requested] points
  • Having the most tournament points grants Frontrunner Status.png Frontrunner Status, which is required to win the tournament (but not necessary to earn rewards).
Incorrectly gives 3 points for rare fish, contrary to the organizer's statement that only exotic fish or above award triple points.
