I fininshed the shoutouts. Now E-mail me! October 3, 2007 Alright, probably one of the final updates, unless someone wants to SEND SOMETHING IN TO ME BY EMAIL (Which is at the bottom). So I added how much the deluxe rod costs and a bunch of shoutouts at the bottom of the page. Read to your hearts content. And e-mail me. October 1, 2007 Turns out, to my suprise and joy, they allowed the FAQ on! But, to my suprise and dismay, I realized that there were many errors in my faq. First off was the bad table of contents. Hopefully by this update you will have been able to figure it out. Alright so today I have updated: Added section: Getting started and the Rods Added fish: Charger Lippian, and Devouerer. Added Prizes. Added Rumor. Completed fish list (unless...). So if you guys have anything to show me, then e-mail me with the adress at the bottom! September 30, 2007 ALRIGHT! Now I've added alot more to this FAQ, and hopefully it will be allowed on Gamefaqs now!. September 19, 2007 Ok, so they didn't add it because of... lack of content. So here I am giving you guys more content. Happy now? -cheat March 30, 2007 Ok, sure, it wasnt released June 4 last year. Gamefaqs rejected it then for having more than 80 charachters per line. Now that is fixed though so if you see this, then they agreed to add it :) -cheat June 4,2006 This is the first release of this, i need information for certain fish please send information using the e-mail adress at the bottom of the page. ________________________________________________________________________ 2:What Is Fishing? Fishing is a key mini-game in the game Legend of Legaia. It is not like normal, real-life fishing, in that you can get fish to bite very easily, but on the other hand, it is often hard to reel them in. Of coarse, that varies upon the fish you are catching. Often, a very common fish will be very easy to reel in. While on the other hand, a very rare fish will be very hard to reel in. There are many different aspects of fishing, each of which will be discussed in this FAQ. These aspects are: lures, the fish, how to fish, the prizes, and where to fish. And so, without further ado, The fishing guide to legend of legaia! ________________________________________________________________________ 3:Getting Started and the Rods I'd bet that first timers at legaia are wondering: "It wont allow me to fish! Why not?" Now, if you want to fish, you must first get a rod and tackle box. There is only one place to get this, and that would be the windmill town of Vidna. Simply enough, all you need to do is go to the guy on the beach laying down. He will have a box next to him, so press X on the box, and he will offer it to you. Yay! Now you have a Rod and Tackle Box! Specifically, you have the Old Rod. Now then, there are three different places to get rods. The cooler their name, the better they are. 1: The Old Rod: This is your most basic fishing rod. Its for the beginner and is exceptional when it comes to fishing. You probably will be using this rod for a long time. This rod is red striped with white. 2: Deluxe Rod: You can get it at the Sol Muscle Dome by trading in coins for prizes (2500 coins).I hardly used it, but if you fish between the beginning of Karisto to the end of it, you might use it often. This rod is yellow striped with blue. 3: Legendary Rod: The best rod you can get, and probably the most used by the end of the game. It has really good tension and reeling capabilities, making it the easiest, and best, rod to use. You can get this rod near the end of the game on the first floor of Dr. Usha's Lab, by the beds on the floor. It is yellow blended with red. So those are the rods. Also, each rod is easier to user than the previous. Use them as much as you want to your enjoyment! And NEXT SECTION!... ...okay.... now NEXT SECTION! ________________________________________________________________________ 4:How to fish. Fishing is quite very simple. When you first enter the fishing area, you will be shown a screen with you and your teammates at the shore/dock. To start to fish, you must first cast. The way you cast is by pressing either X or [], and then a bar on the right side of the screen will go up and down. It is preferable to wait for the bar to be full, and press either X or [] again to cast. The fuller the bar is, the farther you cast, which is good. To reel in the line, you must hold either X or []. If you hold both of the buttons down, you will reel in faster than normal. But reeling in fast is NOT what you want. What is good to see when reeling is the word "GOOD" appearing on the screen. To do this, you must figure out some sort of pattern that works for you to get this, which would consist of tapping the X or [] button(s) a couple of times, then waiting the doing it again. What you're going for is for a fish to get on the line when the word "GOOD" appears. Fishing like this gives you a higher chance for catching bigger and better fish. When a fish is on the line, here is the real tricky part. A fish will be moving the line back and forth, fast or slow depending on the fish. Some fish will be easy to catch. Others will be hard. You most likely have seen the life and tension meters in the bottom left corner of the screen. These bars are essential, ESPECIALLY when having an extremely rare fish on the line. The Life meter will show you how active a fish is. The tension meter will show you how taunt the line is. If the line gets too tight (full red bar), the line will break, you will loose a lure, and you will loose the fish. When the life meter is up and high, it will be harder to pull in the fish. The life meter effects tension, and if the fish is 'alive' it will raise the tension to reel it in. If the life meter is at 0%, you can reel in the fish with ease, for a time. You see, the more you try to reel in the fish, the lower it's life gets, until it is Zero. BUT, after a time of being zero, the life will recharge again. So with harder fish, the life will have a huge effect on tension, and it is easier to just slowly tap the buttons, gauging youself to only reel in a little then let go, until the life meter is gone. I will, in the FISH part of this FAQ, use many terms related to Life and Tension. These terms are: Life Regen: How quickly the life bar raises when life is regenerated. Life Timer: How long it takes for the life to regenerate after being depleted Tension: How fast the tension goes up when reeling/when life goes down. Tension decline: How fast the tension goes down when NOT reeling. I will repeat these terms below in the example of how I will describe the fish. If you do not know these terms, the descriptions might be confusing. ONWARD, TO THE LURES! ________________________________________________________________________ 5: About the Lures There isn't too much to tell here. There are different lures in the game, and each lure will allow you to catch different fish. There are three types of lures in this game: LIght lures, Normal lures, and heavy lures. Light Lures: These are basically... crap. There isn't much, that I know of, that you can catch with these. (unless.... hmm...) Normal Lures: Normal Lures are suggested for those who are beginners at fishing. They can catch a few different things, from a high charger to a spikefish. I would suggest using these to learn how to fish properly, then after both A: You can catch fish and get good fish and B: You get the legendary rod, I would suggest that you go on to Heavy Lures. Heavy Lures: These are the best baits for the best fishermen. Those of you who are new at fishing, as I said above, should stick with Normal Lures. Otherwise with this you will only catch fly pies. Those talented with the ways of the water will be able to easily catch Chargers (at least at the Buma fishing pond). And those talented will also be aiming, most likely, for the Devouerers and Lippians. Only the patient will try for the Baraba. ________________________________________________________________________ 6: THE FISH -Name of fish: Fish's name -Rarity of the fish: the rarity of the fish -Description of the fish: Description of the fish -Point Range of the fish: Lowest to hightest (about) points -Lure Needed: The type of Lure Needed -Where found: the fishing spot the fish is found at -Life Regen: How fast the life regenerates -Life Timer: How soon after life is near gone that the fish regains life -Tension: How fast the tension goes up when life goes down -Tension decline: how fast the tension declines when not reeling. -Average Speed: The average speed overall -Special things to know: Special things about the fish that might help alot. NOTE THAT ALL THESE STANDINGS WERE TAKEN WITH THE LEGENDARY ROD, WITH ANY OTHER ROD, IT WILL GET HARDER TO CATCH THESE FISH! - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - a: High Charger -Name of the Fish: High Charger -Rarity of the Fish: very common for a beginner fishing in the vidna pond, also found much with the Light lure in Buma -Description of the Fish: Long orange body, 2 side fins stetching all the way down its body, and one back fin that turns into its tail fin. Has a short light red nose. -Point Range: low 40's - low 50's -Lure Needed: Normal and Light -Where found: Vidna and Buma -Life Regen: slow - little less than average -Life Time: 1 to 5 seconds -Tension: not much ever -Tension Decline: very fast -Average Speed: slow -Special THings to know: Very slow life regen, this guy is pretty easy... its obvious to tell that its a high charger cause you have a normal lure on, and its very easy to catch. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - b: Jack -Name of the Fish: Jack -Rarity of the Fish: Extremely common in Vidna, Not so common in Buma -Description of the Fish: Two claw-like arms, a segmented body, each segment having yellow at the top and red at the bottom. Has a horn on its head, a large mouth, and a vertical tail. -Point Range: mid 20's through mid 30's -Lure Needed: Light Lure only -WHere found: Vidna and Buma -Life Regen: Varies, see special things -Life Time: Varies, see special things -Tension: Varies, see special things -Tension Decline: very fast -Average Speed: slow-medium -Special THings to know: Life Regen, Life Time, and Tension can change much depending on the size of the fish. Life Regen and Tension can go from slow to medium-fast, and - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - c: Fly Pie -Name of the Fish: Fly Pie -Rarity of the Fish: vidna: almost every time; Buma: if youre not good enough then almost every time -Description of the Fish: A Pink/peach FIsh with 2 green eyes, a pink nose/mouth/tip, 2 'wings', red spots on its back, and many spines on its tail end -Point Range: 14-22 -Lure Needed: Heavy mostly, NOrmal -Where found: Vidna and Buma -Life Regen: Pretty slow -Life Time: 2-3 seconds -Tension: both buttons: Not very much; 1 button: not very much at all -Tension Decline: Extremely fast -Average Speed: pretty slow -Special THings to know: You'll be catching this one alot if you're trying for an Octoban, Lippian, or anything that you would need a heavy lure for. These things tend to trick you sometimes at the beginning, with sort of high tension, but it wont last. The easiest way to tell if its a Fly Pie is If your Life Meter never fully goes down, and stops near the bottom. Another way to tell is if you stop reeling and the fish is just moving slowly or sitting there. Any time in my game I would not go to fish just to find these. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - d: Charger -Name of the fish: Charger -Rarity of the Fish: Vidna is 1/13, Buma is Very Common. -Description of the Fish: Flat Green fish, very aerodynamic looking body.

These are a fun challange for the beginner. The move semi-fast and straight. Also, the lower this guy's life is, the slower the tension meter goes up, rather than at a constant rate. Even though its life regen and life time are low, it takes longer than most fish to get its life down. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - e: Spikefish -Name of the Fish: Spikefish -Rarity of the Fish: probably 1/50 -Description of the Fish: Has multiple large orange spikes, with a purple body; just like the spikefish enemy. -Point Range: mid 110's - low 170's -Lure Needed: Normal only -Where found: Vidna only -Life Regen: Pretty fast -Life Time: about 4 or 5 seconds -Tension: both buttons: fast; one button: not too fast -Tension Decline: not too slow -Average Speed: fast -Special THings to know: This guy's life meter doesnt go down all the way most of the time, but you know its a Spikefish cause its fast and on a normal lure. This guy can also have extreme power at the beginning, and have its bar stay down the rest of the time! *Need Information - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - f: Octoban -Name of the Fish: Octoban -Rarity of the Fish: like, 1/100, its not as rare as it looks... -Description of the Fish: A very pink fish with about 6 or 7 legs, -has a hole at the top of its head, and looks like an octopus. -Point Range: low 100's - high 100's -Lure Needed: Heavy only -WHere found: Vidna only -Life Regen: Pretty fast, but not TOO fast... -Life Time: 2-3 seconds -Tension: both buttons: pretty good; 1 button: average -Tension Decline: fast enough -Average Speed: not TOO fast -Special THings to know: This guy's life meter doesnt go down all the way most of the time, so you can tell its a octoban by its life regen and its tension. Also, note that these guys do not move at high speeds like many other valuble fish. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - g: Lippian -Name of the fish: Lippian -Rarity of the fish: One every 100 or 200 or so... see Special things. -Description of the fish: A basic, dark green lippian. -Point range of the fish: Early 200s. -Lure Needed: Heavy -Where found: Buma only -Life Regen: Quick -Life timer: almost 0, sometime 4 seconds, see special things -Tension: both buttons: Medium Fast; 1 button: medium -Tension Decline: fast enough -Average Speed: Medium Fast -Special things to know: Well, what can I say, its the lippian, right? Well, theres lots to say! First, who knew that the lippian was actually a fish? Second... well... Its kinda rumored that you can catch these, along with Devouerers better if you fish behind the rock or the grass. Im not sure though. Sometimes when you have the fish, the life hardly ever goes down all the way, and other times the life will always go down. No matter what, is that the life will go down but will immediatly go back up most of the time. Sometimes there are pauses before the life goes up. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - g: Devouerer -Name of the fish: Devouerer -Rarity of the fish: 1/200 or 1/300 -Description of the fish: Imagine a shark that is completely white, with a large horn on its head, and its left and right fins look kinda like wings. -Where found: Buma -Point range of the fish: low 300s to high 300s. -Lure Needed: Heavy -Life Regen: Really fast! -Life timer: often instantaneous -Tension: both buttons: kinda fast; 1 button: medium -Tension Decline: medium fast -Average Speed: Semi-Fast -Special things to know: Most people find you can catch this by either fishing behind the rock or the grass. Sometimes it has characteristics similar to the charger and the lippian. I would say it is a combination of both of those. Like the charger, it takes a while to get its life down, and goes just as fast. Like the Lippian, it has almost no downtime, and its life goes back up very fast. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - i: Baraba -Name of the Fish: Baraba -Rarity of the fish: one every 20000 pts about, extremely rare! -Description of the fish: A beautiful light golden fish, a tail, 2 fangs, and 2 blue/white 'wings' -Point range of the fish: 490's- middle 500's (about) -Lure Needed: Heavy -Where found: Vidna only -Life Regen: Really fast! -Life timer: about 1 second before it starts to regen -Tension: both buttons: pretty fast; 1 button: medium speed -Tension Decline: fast enough -Average Speed: EXTREMELY FAST! -Special things to know: This is the rarest fish known. This can be a real pain to find, and a real pain to reel in, but its life has a trick to it that will be EXTREMLY helpful in catching it. The fish goes extremely fast, and reel in with both buttons only when the fish has no life or is regaining life. HELPFUL HINT: This fish has an extremely quick Life Timer, so how will you get it in? Every time its life regains, it regains a SMALL fraction less than it did last time. In five minutes, it wil be down low enough (basically no life regen) and this is the time to reel it in. I have not tried to see what happens after that point, but you just want to reel it in ASAP. This fish just might be virtually impossible without the Legendary Rod. _________________________________________________________________________ 7: Where You can fish Fishing will be IMPOSSIBLE without places to fish. That is why this section of the FAQ exists. There are two fishing ponds, as you have most likely noticed by now. One of them is near Vidna, and the other is around Buma. Getting there is what this setion of the FAQ will explain. V I D N A To get to the Vidna Fishing Spot, start from Vidna and Go across the bridge that is to the east of Vidna, and keep going east, and slightly south. You will come to a dead end on a peninsula, and you will see a wooden sigh. Examine it to fish there. B U M A Start from Buma, and go east. You'll see a wooden sign. Note that you cannot get to this fishing spot until you unfreeze Buma. See? Its not that hard to find a place to fish. _________________________________________________________________________ 8: The Prizes Well there are many different prizes you can achieve from fishing. Some prizes are not shown until you have enough points to get them, some prizes only show up at a certain fishing spot, and some prizes both are hidden and only show up at a certain point. Here are the prizes: PRIZE COST (fishing points) DESCRIPTION -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1: Lippian Flute 200 This calls forth a lippian in battle, most of the time it does nothing, but on rare occasion it will deal instant death to one enemy. 2: Spikefish Flute 200 This will call forth a spikefish, who will use the technique "Blow Fish", causing an explosion which will let you escape from battle. 3: Healing Fruit 500 Just an average healing fruit (heals all ` party members for 800 hp) (Vidna only) 4: Power Ring 1000 This is an accessory which will boost your attack by 20% when equipped.

(Hidden, Buma only) If there are any more prizes you can find, just tell me about them! Use the contact info at the bottom of the page! _________________________________________________________________________ 9: Hints, Tips, and Rumors. Here is a short list of hints, tips and rumors that hopefuly will be expanded upon. Please send in your own hints, tips and rumors using the contact information at the bottom! 1: You can buy more Lures from the guy running the slot maching in Vidna. He only takes Coins though. 2: It isnt known for sure, but if you can cast on the dark spots in the water, or get a good over them, you might get a rare fish on the line. 3: It isnt known for sure, but if you move your stick left and right while trying to hook a fish, you have a better chance of getting a better fish. 4: Getting GOOD to appear is good. It can help you get better fish when it appears. 5: Some people say that, at Buma's fishing spot, if you fish around the grass and the rock, you have a higher chance of hooking a devourer or a Lippian. This seems to work for the Devouerer, but I'm not sure about the Lippian 6: No one knows how to get it, or if it even exists, but there is one last rare fish, called a SPIRIT, that no one I have heard of has caught. The only proof of its existance is through gameshark. _________________________________________________________________________ 10: Credits and contact Info Thanks for reading!
