Fishing Skill Boss: Tempoross
Quick find code: 380-381-680-66191952
It's really odd that for an activity that's getting revamped quite a bit to not get a KC counter is really disappointing I'd love to have the option to know the number of lifetime completions I have so I can flex on my friends how long it took for me to get my angler outfit

After the last tempoross devlog I was ready to dislike this new devlog but I can honestly say I am pleasantly surprised with it. I do think the rewards are too powerful but the gameplay itself sounds fun.
XP
Looking at XP rates across the game, it seems like this is leagues ahead of most fishing, only really out classed by tick manipulation. I'm not keen on this because the rewards are a huge boost to regular fishing and I feel it would become another wintertodt situation in where you only really train here unless you really want to be afk.
Location
Introducing the ruins of Unkah seems pretty cool however I dislike you can just hop on a boat from Al Kharid. This is a moment to add something cool to the desert and we should have to walk through the desert (or perhaps carpet ride?) to get there.
Additionally the pier looks huge on the map. At least 3 squares wide. Can this be reduced to 2 like most ports in game.
Encounter
Like I've already touched on this sounds like it could be quite fun although it might be a fine line to walk. Hopefully you find the right balance here.
Rewards
Like most devlogs these days it feels like the main focus. Of course rewards should be there but there are always so many rewards offered in fear that new content will be dead.
Spirit Flakes
Awesome idea for a utility reward however this is super powerful. 50% on it's own is crazy and when stacking with the 8% from radas blessing it is unreal! I honestly don't think it should be more then 10% and 20% with the blessing. RIP Forums
Finally we have signatures in the surprise forum update. I'm Lewis, I play Old School & I've been playing since 2005.

Fish barrel
Another very helpful utility item. In my opinion it should come with a small cost, for example it breaks over time and needs to be repaired with spirit flakes.
Tackle Box
I really like this idea. Can this item also be placed somewhere in PoH?
Spirit Angler Outfit
This outfit looks great. I can imagine anyone wanting to look like a pirate using this. That being said I'm not too keen on it acting like the anglers outfit. I think because it looks so different.
Harpoonfish Trophy
Really awesome idea. Rare drops to display in PoH are fantastic!
Tome of Water
I think I was originally against this. However now I'm okay with it. That being said stacking with swampbark (when is swampbark being added) doesn't sit well with me. At least have both items ingame before buffing them to work together.
Heron Pet Recolour
This could be cool.
Fishing Trawler
I am in favour of most of these changes however I have some concerns about the shorter game time. For example you mentioned the angler outfit drop rate would be adjusted to fit but if the heron rate is dropped and you can play twice as much then the heron is essentially 4 times faster to get from fishing trawler.
Fishing Trawler Tentacles
I absolutely love this idea. When Tempoross was first talked about I was playing a lot of sea of theives and really thought krakens and megalodons would fit a fishing trawler expansion. Perhaps this can be done on a higher level boat, like in pest control. RIP Forums
