    Roary Fishcatcher, in the hut immediately to your right upon entering Kerra Isle, is an excellent chef and loves to prepare different types of fish.

    You say, 'Hail, Roary Fishpouncer'

    Roary Fishpouncer says, 'Rrrr... catching and prrreparing fish is my specialty. Perrrhaps you could fetch for me some [rrrare fish] so that I may demonstrate my skill? Rrrr.'

    You say, 'rrrare fish'

    Roary Fishpouncer says, 'Rrrr... my most delectable dish is prrreparrred frrrom rrraw darkwater piranha. Unforrrtunately, the pirrranha only surrrvives in the murrrky waterrrs of the wicked Nektulos forrrest. I will rrreward any brrrave fisherman who can brrring me some rrraw darkwater pirranha.'

    Raw Darkwater Piranha is an uncommon drop off a darkwater piranha in Nektulos Forest. Give it to Roary.

    Roary Fishpouncer says, 'Rrrr... my mouth is waterrring alrrrready. Ourrr trribe shall feast well tonight. You have prrroven yourself a fisherrrman worrrthy of one of my special spearrrs. They are coated with a specially prrrepared fish oil. When all the oil has washed off, you may rrreturn the spear to me along with a frrresh fish and I will rrreapply the oil for you.'

    Your faction standing with Kerra Isle has been adjusted by 20.
    You gain experience!

    You get Kerran Fishing Spear with 3 charges of Enduring Breath. As Roary says, you can recharge it by bringing it back to Roary along with a Fresh Fish.

    Upon hand in of the spear and Fresh Fish:

    Roary Fishpouncer says, 'Rrrrr... I need both the spear and a frrresh fish to prrrepare the spear with the oil.'
    Roary Fishpouncer says, 'Rrrr... been doing some deepwater fishing, I presume? Here is your spear with a frrresh coat of my special oil.'

    the only reason i can see doing this is because it has stats, can go in a ranged slot AND is magical. I have a troll shaman that STILL does not have a magical weapon at 11. If a ghoul jumps me or I accidently hit a willow wisp... Im dead. It does however share the common trait almost all piercing weapons do, and thats crappy stats. but in a pinch even with its bad ratio you could switch it out for a magical. I imediately thought Rogue when I saw it I think the bonus' are better for that class then pally.

    And that post was right not all piercing are usable by a pally, not by a long shot.

    A halfling plot?

    strangely enough my dark elf cleric of innoruuk, who was dubious to all halflings in Nek, was contentedly hunting the piranha for xp when the leatherfoot deputy aggro'ed on him and assisted the fish! for you lighties as well as the chosen of innoruuk do not hunt the piranha west of the bridge (where the leatherfoot deputy roams), as those miserable halflings have apparently made some sort of alliance with the pointy-toothed menaces. also, the drop rate on the raw D.P. must be unbelievably low as i hunted these for many, many moons and have yet to see the blasted thing!

    I was unaware that quests (or fishing spears) had sexual preferances

    Actually, paladins can't use most piercing weapons. They can use some select FEW spear-type (2handed) piercing weapons, but for 2-handed weapons the ratios on these usually suck.

    If you can learn to use a piercing weapon, maybe you could learn to use punctuation too?
    Nektulos?

    Does this quest really go all the way from Kerra to Nektulos? Wouldn't it be more logical to go to -Toxxulia- Forest, which is the Erudite zone?

    Does anyone know?

    this weapon's use is not the fact that it does or doesn't deal dmg. It is useful for swimming underwater for long periods of time. At high lvls this is an issue.
    Fishing in the forest

    Anyone know if this is a fished item?
    RE: Fishing in the forest
    # Jan 29 2001 at 8:33 PM Rating: Default
    No all the fish in Nek are KOS to everyone so you will have to go in the water and kill it. These fish are usally about 12-14 not too hard but underwater Parana trains happen along with the fact that Deputy Leather foot swims in the river once in a while to get across to the other camp. The Duputy is a 18-25 Spawn. So watch for him.
    is the "raw darkwater piranha" NO DROP
    # Jan 25 2001 at 6:18 PM Rating: Default
    Like the Subject says, is it NO DROP?
    Yes.
    # Mar 07 2001 at 11:48 AM Rating: Decent
    As the subject says, yes. The raw darkwater piranha is no drop.
    I think we got off the subject...lol

    Everyones concerned about the Pally's and their piercing that noone answered the intial question. I was also wondering if anyone knows the spawn rate ot loc where this thing spawns. i couldn't find it either and I think I saw that first guy floating in the river from exhaustion.....lol
    Spawn loc?
    # Nov 06 2000 at 12:57 PM Rating: Default
    Anyone have any tips on where the piranha spawns? I have been swimming around in the game so long, my fingers are wrinkled when I get done playing.
    Possible LOC

    Try by the bridge - there are some really nasty piranha there that tear the heck out of my troll every time I swim around there and I'm 14th level. The bridge also makes the most sense since there are gaurds nearby just to make the quest a b*tch for light races. These fish hit hard though.

    I think I can speak for everyone on this topic. Please people when you know that someone has been camping for a long time, don't pester them about when they are going to leave. Don't sit down next to them to "wait" until they are done. You might be waiting a long time and then the time it takes for you to complete your camp on top of that. The NPC will always respawn and will always be there. Just ask them kindly if they will send you a tell when they are done and 9 times out of 10 they will. These players are tired from camping that long of a period and quite understandably a little grouchy and become extremely nervous at the thought of someone possibly stealing their kill. So, be courteous.
    Yes piercing weapon for a paladin
    # Oct 06 2000 at 3:34 AM Rating: Decent
    It use means that they can EQUIP it and to a certain extent use it but you would never want to as your piercing skill will forever be at 0
    It loots cool
    # Aug 07 2000 at 2:53 PM Rating: Decent
    Well, at least you can equip it and run around like an idiot saying "look at me, i'm a piercing pall!"
    Piercing weapon for a paladin??
    # Jul 29 2000 at 10:25 AM Rating: Decent
    Paladins cannot use a piercing weapon, so how is this weapon even possible?
    Actually, Paladins can't fight with Piercing...
    # Nov 21 2000 at 12:37 PM Rating: Default
    They just fixed this in a patch...

    Paladins CANNOT use piercing weapons...they don't have the skill. Items have now been corrected to show this.
    RE: Actually, Paladins can't fight with Piercing...
    # Dec 16 2000 at 12:03 AM Rating: Default
    And now in another patch, paladins have gained the piercing skill. I think Absor explained it as a 2-handed kind of piercing (think lances, which um, were one handed but oh well). So now the question is if these items have been patched again so low level paladins can find a weapon to use and improve that weapon skill.

    I believe you are thinking of a pike which is two handed and you don't need to be on horseback ;)
