Walkthrough

• Talk to Irmilant to start the quest.
• He requests a Saber Shoot and Opal Silk, which can be obtained through the Inside the Belly quest.
  • Saber Shoot can be obtained by trading Gugrusaurus to Zaldon. The rate at which Zaldon gives out Saber Shoots is rumored to be between 0.5% and 2%
    • Gugrusaurus bite on the Ferry - Mhaura/Selbina during pirate attacks, on the Manaclipper during the part the routes to and from Purgonorgo Isle that are closest to Purgonorgo Isle, as well as on the Ferry - Mhaura/Al Zahbi (no special requirements for this ferry).
    • Gugrusaurus bite on Meatball and Drill Calamary. Drill Calamary can be obtained by trading Sea Zombies to Zaldon (approximately 25% of Sea Zombies will yield a Drill Calamary). Occasionally the Pirate's Chart Quest will also yield a Drill Calamary.
    • When hooked with a Meatball, Gugrusaurus will only stay on the hook for a very short period of time unless the fisherman has the effect of an Albatross Ring active. Drill Calamary does not suffer this penalty.
  • Opal Silk can be obtained by trading a Lik to Zaldon. Approximately 0.5% to 2% of Lik traded will yield an Opal Silk.
    • Lik can be caught in Leremieu Lagoon in Lufaise Meadows.
    • Lik bite on Minnow and Dwarf Pugil. Dwarf Pugils can be obtained by trading a Cave Cherax to Zaldon (approximately 25% of Cave Cheraxes will yield a Dwarf Pugil).
    • Lik will stay on the hook for a shorter period of time when hooked with a Minnow than when hooked with a Dwarf Pugil; however, the difference is not as pronounced as with the two Gugrusaurus baits.
• Trade the Saber Shoot and Opal Silk to Irmilant.
• Return after Conquest tally and talk to Irmilant to end the quest, and receive your reward.

Notes

• The Fishing Guild Point key item Serpent Rumors is required to start the quest as well as hook and catch Gugrusaurus and Lik.
• The Mooching key item will extend the time that the fish will stay on the hook when a live bait (Drill Calamary or Dwarf Pugil) is used.
• Albatross Rings are highly recommended to extend the time that the fish will stay on the hook, especially in the case of Gugrusaurus.
• Level 78 Fishing is required in order to get the Serpent Rumors key item, so that is the absolute minimum level; however, fishers lower than level 90 fishing will have a very difficult time reeling in the fish necessary for the quest. Close to level 100 fishing is highly recommended.
• You will break your rod a lot trying to catch these fish, please consider either raising woodworking or bringing a woodworking mule along for repairs. Please also be aware that you will lose your rod if you are repairing it when the Ferry docks.
