dodogal Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 I know the consensus is "don't bother with the primitive rod" but depending on the server setting you may not have any other alternative I have only access to primitive rods and while I have access to leech blood, it is much more time consuming to get compared to honey What are my hopes to obtain saddle blueprints (of any level, I don't care) with primitive rods and honey? I'm getting better at fishing now and I can get up to 1.4X salmons with very low fail rate but after catching dozens of big salmons, I still haven't gotten any blueprint. My average fishing score is approximately 0.65 ~ 0.7 Is there any hope to obtain one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HumBugZ707 Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 Idek how to use the damn thing. I tried and tried.. And said nope. Sorry not an answer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d1nk Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 I would assume its an abysmal low rate to even get a blueprint with a primitive rod, nevermind actually getting a decent quality one. Cant kill alpha squids for more? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Solo tengo acceso a barras primitivas y si bien tengo acceso a sangre de sanguijuela, es mucho más lento en comparación con la miel ¿Cuáles son mis esperanzas de obtener planos de silla de montar (de cualquier nivel, no me importa) con barras y miel primitivas? Ahora estoy mejorando en la pesca y puedo llegar a los salmones 1.4X con un índice de falla muy bajo, pero después de capturar docenas de salmones grandes, todavía no he conseguido ningún plan. Mi puntaje promedio de pesca es de aproximadamente 0.65 ~ 0.7 ¿Hay alguna esperanza de obtener uno? I guess its really a low rate, you should try caves insteed or try orbital drops, really high chances on orbitals. I never see a fishing rod BP.

dodogal Posted March 14, 2019 Author Share Posted March 14, 2019 Are you sure about this though or just guessing? This is what the wiki says : https://ark.gamepedia.com/Fishing_Rod#Detailed The article is a bit unclear but apparently you get either just meat or meat+loot, and in the latter case there are multiple tiers where you get a BP, some of which have a 10% chance. I get loot frequently, but so far only the items in common resources and rare resources tiers. I find it weird that with a 10% chance I still got nothing after dozens of fishes that gave me loot... =/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WaightZer Posted March 14, 2019 Share Posted March 14, 2019 Chance of getting BPs with a primitive rod is extremely if not close to impossible low. Even with MC rod 395% efficiency, I sometimes still got crap tier loots with no BP on 1.3 salmon with leech blood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Durbinhaze Posted March 15, 2019 Share Posted March 15, 2019 i wouldn't waste your time with a primitive rod. Time is better spent trying to tame something to kill alpha tusos for a higher quality rod. My source of info is my experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arrojado1200 Posted March 15, 2019 Share Posted March 15, 2019 Hey guy... rod were nerfedf in 2017. You can find bps in underwater caves. Tame a 130+ dolphin and run for caves. You need speed for this. Get the drops, and get out the cave. Repeat this, oftentimes. Success for you. :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nevermind a primitive.. Why cant you get rod bps? Are alpha squids and cave loot disabled? Explain it to us and maybe we can help you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might have missed the point, I don't care about the bp quality. Any blueprint will be a priceless treasure due to peculiar server setting/configuration. I have fished offline with journeyman rod and got plenty of blueprints from 1.3X salmons so BP may not be as hard to get as you make it sound. The question is not "is it worth fishing on regular official server" the question is : "can I get ANY BP OF ANY QUALITY with primitive rod". Thank you.

Forman Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 There is actually a chance to get blueprints with primitive rod, BUT! the fish has to be really big, like 2.0+ and honey bait ofc. I've been testing it whole day and I got 3 blueprints from 2.2 quality salmon. The lesser ones seem to yield only resources. https://imgur.com/Ub2mzr4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
