I’ve recently finished my rod quest and I’ve ended up with over 350+ Golden carps. The item description says they are sought by gourmands for the finest recipes ever known. My cooking level is over 180 and I’ve not come across any recipe that requires Golden carps. Do any actually exist? If not, will one be added for it? Carps fetch a nice price and I don’t know if I should vendor or hold on them ..
Grats on the Hand of Nodens rod. I was curious if the rods were all the same like mine, light blue shining light at each section of the rod or if they made 3 different rods for each description of the fish, pike light blue (like mine), multicolored like the trout description, and shifting light like the rays description.
As to your question I have not seen any recipe either, but with fishing they have always done things for future use and sometimes have had errors. IE silver and gold nodens were described when lirs was the only fishing zone, and obviously you could not fish the silver til stonevale was added to fishing and gold until this expansion. Errors such as the vender food said 15 minutes when it was only 5, relics and rings were supposed to come from the fish boxes, and other small errors such as character levels and fish level were confused with each other, my alt could equip the level 3 bear but couldn’t use the food to summon til he was level 80 for his character.
The only thing that I can see is the price difference, if they add it to cooking will they lower the vender price to the same as shimmering. Or is there a recipe that no one has gotten yet? They lowered the price of ling so that may happen, I hope not, but there is no telling what they will do. I think it will be for future use. But this begs the question since the shimmering is so rare why the vender price is so low? The food buffs for shimmering aren’t that great for the time u need to farm enough to do anything with them, plus you need to get the first rod to farm them against the debuff. Why add the rod quest and all this if it’s not really that great. It doesn’t make much sense to me for all the trouble it takes to get a bunch. So many questions, but in a way kinda scared to ask in case they decide to nerf prices on things.
