Just Finished Diamond Trophy Fish, and I decided to rank the trophy fish based on my eperience. This is ranked from most to least annoying to get, and how out of your way to fish for it you have to go. I won't be ranking this based on how many it took me to fish, as I got very lucky with all 4 epic fish, but they will still be ranked very high.
- Slugfish
The worst trophy fish by far to fish for. You are forced to use a slug pet, which means you have less trophy chance and you lose 10% bonus diamond chance from spinosaurus. This fish also takes the 2nd longest to pity, since you have to wait for 10s for each chance to catch one. This fish is also terrible for overlapping with other fish, since you catch fish so slowly, it is difficult to make progress with other fish, not to mention you are catching these other fish without a spinosaurus pet. Easily the worst, this thing needs its pity reduced down to like 200 with how long and annoying it is.
- Golden Fish
This trophy is not extremely annoying to fish for, but if you get unlucky, like I did, it can be you're last diamond trophy, which means you are just waiting most of the time to catch fish. This fish takes the longest to pity by a long shot, and it is extremely tragic when you get it as you're last diamond. This fish I also think needs to be lowered to at least 300, since even that is pretty high.
- Soulfish
This fish is tied for the rarest fish and rarest diamond fish you can catch. This fish is ranked higher than the other epics because there is it has the least overlap with other fish, out of the epic fish. It is technically just as annoying as the other fish, but you progress the least in you're overall trophy fishing when you're fishing for this fish so imo its 3rd worst.
- Karate Fish
I debated putting this fish at 3 simply because every time you're umberella expires you have to run outside of the dojo area to place another one. This is so annoying since I would constantly forget to replace one and not be using one half the time. The main benefit this one has over soulfish is that you can overlap with Moldfin at the edge of the dojo and marsh, which lets you roll for 2 of the rarest fish at once which increases efficiency a bit
- Skeleton fish
This fish is tied with karate, moldfin and soul for rarest, but it is the 2nd least annoying because you are able to overlap with some of the volcano exclusive fish by fishing on the side of the volcano in the desert. You are able to catch the Volcanic Stone fish, flyfish, and gushers, allowing you to fish for one of each rarity and have pretty good overall efficiency
- Sulphur Skitter
This fish in my opinion is the most annoying common to fish for and it's not even close. Always having to stand within 4 blocks of sulphur doesn't sound extremely annoying, but it's often extremely difficult to find a sulphur block in an area where you can overlap with other fish as well. Like it is rare to find a sulphur on the side of the volcano near lava where you can fish for skeleton fish, the volcano fish, and suplhur skitter. Its also annoying having to find a spot every lobby with a skitter, so imo it deserves a high spot
- Vanille
This fish can be done anywhere, and is not extremely difficult to catch, but is annoying as using a starter rod reduces your efficiency while overlapping fish. Not having charm, high fishing speed, and high trophy chance takes quit a hit on you're overall progress since its unlikely you catch another diamond while going for this fish. You also cannot overlap this fish with obfu 3 or 2, and overlapping with slug makes both take longer than doing separately so you can't overlap with slug either. The main saving grace is that you can do it anywhere which is nice
- Obfuscated 3
This fish is extremely over hated due to bait being an issue. In my opinion, it's not that bad. If from the beginning you have lots of obfuscated 1, you can just always use that as bait until you have tons of obfuscated 2, then use you're obfuscated 2 the rest of the time you fish for any other fish. You lose a little bit of trophy chance, but it's really not a big hit in efficiency. People complain too much about this one, imo if its you're last fish that on you
- Moldfin
This fish is exactly the same as the skeleton fish, except for the marsh. It's the easiest epic fish imo, since it has all the same overlaps as the skeleton fish, except it also has the karate fish overlap. Best epic imo and is really not too bad since you can overlap so much while going for this fish
- Volcanic Stonefish
This one is nice since you can overlap with, gusher, steaming hot flounder, flyfish, moldfin, and skeleton fish. It is the rarest volcano fish though, and I actually caught this fish after all the epic fish and other volcano fish, so it is not something to be completely overlooked
- Flyfish
Not a terrible fish, just kind of annoying having to fish from high up, and can make it awkward to overlap with other fish sometimes
- Steaming Hot Flounder
Another fish that isn't too bad, just can be slightly awkward since the geyser move and can spawn in weird spots. Overall chill tho
- Gusher
This is the start of the fish where you pretty much dont have to think about them at all since you're guaranteed to catch them without doing anything. You will definitely get this during you're volcano fishing
- Obfuscated 2
Another Fish that is pretty easy. You will get multiple diamonds while getting bait for obfuscated 3
- Mana Ray
Guaranteed to drop tons of these. Super easy no effort or thought into catching these
- Lavahorse
Caught everywhere, super common, multiple diamonds guaranteed
- Bloblfish
Will overwrite a ton of your sulphur skitters, which is really annoying. I probably got 20 of these before getting all fish
NA. Obfuscated 1
You catch these regularly fishing with them, doesn't feel right to rank
Lets me know if you agree with my list and explanations!
