I’ve been a part of a great fishing guild located in world 22 for over a decade! It was a great honor when it was dubbed the official community fishing world. Let’s show some love to our fishers in OldSchool Runescape by proclaiming W322 or w422 the official OSRS fishing world :)

Cheers!

Add it to fishing trawler. we catch the fish, we blast the demi-god from the boat, while it would finally explain why the boat is getting holes in it's side instead of just awful patchwork by sea-worthy adventurer's. it would add a few jobs to help with inactivity as well as add a little more excitement to an old minigame that's basically abandoned unless you need angler outfit.

I would really love if it scaled similarly to Wintertodt instead of having a flat cut off. I am enjoying the variety of content added lately, specifically for skilling, as I think it's in need of some love, more specifically, fun.

I see Tome of Water being useful for teleblockers to have some more reliable crowd control on standard spellbook as well as fishing barrel increasing how long some of us are able to sit at a fish spot, so thanks! <3

Also the outfit is cute, as someone with 99 Fishing I will probably be doing this should it pass, even if it's not efficient, or really 'worth' because I think it will be fun. I feel very similarly about Mahog Homes, which is also not as efficient as other methods, but adds variety and fun. We need that.

I will also throw out there that the Fishing Platform (after completing Sea Slug) would be a cool place to use current fish for bait, for a more xp oriented fishing method depending on which fish was used, and give some needed love to Witchhaven, since their questline does involve the towns economy getting destroyed by a Fishing Platform... that's... never used...

Please try to think about unused areas of the game and how lore can be tied into these updates. Chasm of Fire for example still references Yama, and I'm still waiting on what that means. Much love, and thank y'all for the dedication and hard work. :)

Sums it up perfectly! I have been enjoying mahogany homes myself , had about written it off on both my accounts and dont mind training it now! And amazing on the fishing platform idea, tie it in with a quest continuing the story line, since its unfinished anyways!

Im new to the rs community but I saw a cape called fish sack. And so my question is why that cant that store 28 fish in it so the barrel is cool but when you have something like that why not just use it.

I am very happy with the proposed update! This is great stuff! I would agree with some of the above comments. I would like to see a heron recolor reward from this boss, that would be pretty awesome. It's a great idea to start having some worlds dedicated to various skills. Cooking worlds, thieving worlds, fletching worlds, and fishing make a lot of sense since the player's cant necessarily "hurt" other players xp rates while skilling together on these skills. I personally have been in the aforementioned w22 fishing clan for quite some time and I think it would be awesome for 322 to be recognized as the official fishing world. The w22 fish community embodies admirable qualities that the greater whole of the osrs community should strive to achieve. The community is very friendly, and does a great job policing toxicity. I hope you'll consider designating 322 as the official fishing world, but if not we hope that others reading this forum post take this opportunity to check out the "w22 fish" community! All are welcome :D --------
Please dont hate me but I got my vork pet at 1kc :D

On top of accuracy boost and binds longer, how about reducing run energy by 15% of damage dealt with water spells too? Adding an effect (like a chance to hit max hit through prayer, similar to veracs, or chance to ignore magic defence and deals bonus damage, similar to diamond bolts e) to using it with trident of the swamp/seas will be cool too I feel
