Shark Week

Happy Shark Week!

Hello Wizards, it’s Erin EagleCaller, and Shark Week is here! All week in Wizard101, we’re celebrating the fantastic sharks of the Spiral!

During this event, you have a chance to catch the Warhammerhead as well as all seven Stubby Sharks. It’s also the perfect time to catch the seasonal fish, the Basking in the Sun Shark! You can find these magnificent fish scattered in various locations throughout the Spiral.

Shark Week comes to the Spiral but once a year. Usually near the end of July or the first week of August. Yet, it’s one of the few times; we can find all the Stubby Sharks together (except the Warhammerhead). It’s a big opportunity for Wizard101’s Fishing enthusiasts. You won’t want to miss it!

In light of this, allow me to fill you in on how you can catch these magical fish.

Warhammerhead and Stubby Sharks

The best spots to find the Warhammerhead and Stubby Sharks are in the Commons and Northguard. Since they’re both Rank 2, use the Rank 2 Winnow to help find them. Then using Reveal Fish School spell to help catch them all.

You’ll want to use the corresponding lure to the shark that you want to catch. I’d suggest a minor or common fishing lure of the same school to capture them.

If you don’t have the Rank 2 Winnow spell, you can get around it using Reveal Fish Rank 1. Because the Warhammerhead and the Stubby Sharks are all Rank 2 fish, the spell won’t mark them. That way, you can be sure that it is a Warhammerhead or Stubby Shark! Remember, all Stubby Sharks are the same rank regardless of school.

Basking in the Sun Shark

Don’t forget to catch the Summer Fish, the Basking in the Sun Shark! They’re staying with us for the entire Summer; if you don’t find one during Shark Week, don’t fret! Remember to snag one before the season ends to complete your shark collection.

The Commons is the best choice for finding the Basking in the Sun Shark. Using reveal fish school, take notice to which are fish are Fire school. Then using any Fire Lure, you’ll want to catch the larger fish in the pond. The Basking in the Sun Shark is almost double the length of your lure, making them easy to spot.

Shark Locations

Warhammerhead

The Warhammerhead is in Wizard City’s Triton Avenue; yet, they’re not a common catch. So, it’s not the ideal spot to find them.

This shark is also found in Grizzleheim. Look for them in Northguard, Helgrind Warren, Mirkholm Keep, and the Vigrid Roughland.

This fish can be housed in a Regular Aquarium

Stubby Sharks and Basking in the Sun Sharks

Stubby Sharks and Basking in the Sun Sharks have a wide range of fishing spots. They’re in Wizard City, Krokotopia, Mooshu, Grizzleheim, Zafaria, and Avalon.

In Wizard City, they are in the Commons. If you’ve begun the Immortal Games in Aquila, these sharks are also in the Garden of Hesperides.

As for the other worlds, you can find them in the Oasis, the Jade Palace, Northguard, the Baobab Crossroads, and Caliburn.

Although less common, the Basking in the Sun Shark can be found in every Castle or House that has a fishing pond.

Both of these fish can be housed in a Regular Aquarium.

Starting Fishing: Avalon

After you complete the fishing quest “Not If I Catch ‘Em First!” in Dragonspyre, Lucky Hookline will send you on a journey to Avalon. 

Brooke Waterman awaits you in Caliburn with another quest, “A Fishy Competitor.”  As you enter Caliburn, Brooke will be found along the shore of the lake to your left.  I have marked her location on the map below.

Brooke will then send you to Caer Lyon to speak to her sister, Wren Waterman, who has a new fishing quest.  You’ll find Wren next to the river, as shown on the map:

The quest you receive from Wren Waterman is aptly named, “A Fishy Competitor”, as  you will be competing with her sister Brooke, to catch a wide variety of fish.

 

Goals:

1 Sword Tail / Rank 1 Fire / Caer Lyon / Winnow Fire Fish / Minor Flame Lure

1 William Walleye / Rank 2 Balance / High Road / Winnow Balance Fish / Winnow Rank 2 Fish / Minor Harmony Lure

At the end of this quest, Wren will give you a new one called “Angling Upward.”

In this quest, you’ll need to catch 4 new fish.

Goals:

1 King Mackerel / Rank 3 Ice / Rare / High Road / Winnow Ice Fish / Winnow Rank 3 Fish / Common Frost Lure

1 Sea Fairy / Rank 3 Life / Epic / The Wyrd / Winnow Life Fish / Common Vitality Lure

1 Hag Fish / Rank 2 Death / Sentinel / The Wyrd / Minor Repose Lure

1 Hamlet / Rank 2 Death / Dun Dara / Winnow Death Fish / Minor Repose Lure

At the end of this quest, you will earn a spell which Removes Rank 2 Sentinels. We can finally get rid of the Sentinels too strong for the Rank 1 Banish spell!

 

Tips:

Fishing takes patience, but it’s a great way to use your unused energy. 

You can keep your best fish and display them in aquariums, or sell your fish to Lucky Hookline for gold!

Many rare items can be found in fishing chests!

Don’t forget that the fish you see in front of you are not the same fish other Wizards see. Other players cannot catch or scare your fish away. However, if you catch a fish or scare it away, it will be replaced after 15 minutes.

If the pond does not have the right school of fish, scare them away by running in the water and come back later!

Also, remember that the first time you go to an area, they load the names of the fish. Of course, this is hard to see but always keep it in mind about rare and epic fish you are looking for. 

Good luck and let us know how your fishing adventure in Avalon goes!

Next destination: Azteca!
