Just spent three hours fishing in Mount Obsidian, and let me tell you – Palworld's Tides of Terraria update totally changed the game! 🎮✨ When I heard they added fishing for pals, I sprinted straight to those volcanic waterfalls south of the Anubis Statue. That moment when my rod finally bent? Pure magic! Who knew this ducky fire-water hybrid would become my base's MVP multitasker? Keep reading for my no-BS fishing survival guide – trust me, you'll want this lil' guy hauling resources while spitting flames. 🔥💧

The Fishing Revolution in Palworld 🌊🎣

Remember when catching pals meant endless battles? The Tides of Terraria update flipped everything by letting us FISH for creatures! No fancy rods needed – I used my basic Bamboo Rod and cheap Earthworm bait. The key? Patience, patience, patience. ⏳ You're basically playing underwater gacha: throw your line into shimmering pal shadows and wait for that tug. When it happens, you'll get a rhythm minigame (think tapping buttons in sync). Mess up? Poof – pal escapes!

Pinpointing Fuack Ignis' Hideout 🗺️

After wasting hours in random ponds, I discovered the golden spot: Mount Obsidian's southern waterfalls! Teleport to the Anubis Statue waypoint, slide down the lava-rock slopes, and bam – you'll see turquoise pools under cascades. Pro tip: arrive at dawn (in-game time) when less aggressive pals spawn. Bring:

  • Heat-resistant armor ❄️

  • 10+ baits (quantity > quality!)

  • Stamina food (you'll reel for ages)

Why Fuack Ignis Rocks Your Base 🏠💪

Don't judge this cutie by its Level 1 skills! It's a Swiss Army knife pal:

Skill Type Uses Why It Matters
Kindling 🔥 Cooking/Smelting Fire type = instant furnace starter!
Watering 💧 Crops Hydrates plants during volcanic droughts
Handiwork 🛠️ Crafting Passively builds while you adventure
Transporting 📦 Resource hauling Moves ore twice as fast as early-game pals

Yeah, late-game pals do these better, but where else do you get a fire-water duck carrying metal while watering tomatoes? Plus, collector's flex! 😉

My Fishing Failures & Wins 🎯

Confession: my first 12 catches were useless Pengullets. Why? Fishing pools spawn random pals! To boost Fuack odds:

  • Stand RIGHT where lava meets water

  • Save-scum before casting (quit/reload if wrong pal bites)

  • Use "Pal Lure" food (craftable post-update!)

Took me 18 tries... but hearing that splash when he emerged? Worth every second.
