Nerfed by end of day for sure.
This has been a thing for awhile, all you had to do was set your interact with keybind to a mouse over macro and position your screen so the bobber fills up the screen. This way your mouse is always over the bobber and when you hear the sound you hit the keybind and than hit the keybind to cast fish and repeat. It’s what allowed multi-boxers to fish in-mass for years. Also has implications for opening dialogue with crowded quest givers.
pepoBot happy
RIP Interact button :(
good change. good blizz bots
I couldn't seem like it to work correctly. I would have to rotate my character ever so slightly to face the bobber perfectly to get it to register as intractable. But if I'm doing that I can just use the already useful interact with mouseover keybind.I'll try again this evening to see if something has been fixed since I tried last.
nerf inc or new wave of bots inc lmao
Man i swear if they remove this feature because of bots I will be so mad. We already can't run more than 10 instances per hour because Blizzard cares about bots more than player QoL, hopefully they don't make the same mistake yet again. I do not care about bots. Gold is already worthless thanks to RMT built into the client.
This doesn't work 100%. When you cast, the bobber will sometimes go slightly left or right. Even zoomed all the way in, if the bobber isn't directly in front of your toon, no joy.
Next Patch: "Fishing Poles don't count anymore as interactive Object for "Interacct with Target" option in Interface menu." xDBest thing i found about Fishing is: Most people hate it cause it's lame af... but Archeology doesn't get something new cause they first want to overhaul the lame "Minigame" you play to get something... but Fishing... this stays... THE SAME SINCE VANILLA xD
I don't fish for gold so I could care less about bots, but as someone who likes to just chill and fish I think it's silly that fishing ever took more than one button. Fishing should be something that you can chill and do while chatting with your guild or watching a movie. If you're worried about the implications of botting just make food require less fish and more organically sourced meats, hell food could require herbs and it wouldn't be the worst idea in the world. But fishing doesn't need to be some intense game of staring at your bobber, that's a sure fire way to make players hate it. While this isn't perfect it's a step in the right direction.
Aaaaaaaand its gone
This will definitely be nurfed. In Vanilla there was a way to automate fishing and it was killed with fire.
