Fishing System
In addition to the Mining and Forging system, a similar grinding system is now making its way into bRO. The Fishing System. This system can aid players a little in grinding from time to time.
Fishing World is similar to Mining and Forging System where you can level up and manage various skills, but it's also different in some ways. If you are familiar with the House of Trials fishing system, it's the same but with addition with gears and different baits! In this system, there's a number of items that you can obtain and help you improve your fishing proficiency.
Note: Since this is a fairly new system, items, drop rates, and other aspects may be changed without notice. Attempting to abuse this system will be punished accordingly.
