Events at IS have different "stages". Each stage requires a rod. The first 2 stages are free. Anything higher, and you need to pay 3k gold or 3* to unlock each additional stage. Do not attempt without maximizing the stages.
Each stage has only 2 fish you can catch. For example, in a 3 stage event, the first stage has 2, the second stage has another 2, and the third stage another 2. Of each of these 2 fish in each stage, there is often times a big fish and a little fish. The big fish will always be the target.
If you do not have at least 2 star rods higher than ot, you will most likely become very frustrated in maximizing your rewards and achieving high rank scores. All star rods from vb and higher, normal or rare, give 1110 points when cast. Ot is 1010, ssf 910, twilight 810, etc. Gold rods have a maximum of 910 points so it is advised not to use them if possible.
There are 4 ways to earn points listed in order of importance:
1) fish type and size
2) rod type used
3) perfect cast every time
4) speed in killing the fish
Luck seems to play a big part in placing at IS. Bait varies in its reliability as does chum. The best thing to do is keep practicing and use high end star rods. The rewards are great when you can achieve 3* and get IS boxes. Rods, costumes, bait, pearls, etc.
Good luck and happy fishing!!

Wow! Now the tutorial is veeery good!
ReplyDeleteThank you, dinkdink!
Very good work, m8!
I was wondering the bonuses points for the rods, but you answered it now in this topic!

I hope it helps. I needed to really learn it in and out myself to get the best info to you all that I could. 8)

Many thanks bro .... this is really helpful.... I've been trying every now and then but my best rank was 4 but I was quite satisfied.....hope to get better rank with these precious tips.... thanks again bro.

Just to add something. Point 4 is not very right here. Speed or time to land the fish doesn't matters at all. The time to kill the fish is important cos it's where u earn your time bonus. The timer stopped after u killed the fish. After killing it, u can take all your time to reel the fish in.
ReplyDeletekelish
Yes, that's what I meant. Not land, but kill the fish. Anyone who's played one knows the timer stops once you kill it.
DeleteHi guys, it's not really important??? So test it when you can. When a SSS-fish bites so snap your line and you will see that it's size is unbelieveable, like from the cheaters :-) , and when you get the same fish and reel in you will see after a fight ablut 1-2 minutes the size will differ to your perfect hit number.

I just started playing @ IS cuz I got bored with * farming and hunting fish that never bite and this is by far the best way to get gold if you sell all the items you don't need/want. Or you can use them for combine I guess. Can't quite crack the top ten yet(11th my best so far) but its coming.
ReplyDeleteMy main point: THANKS DINK!
8)
ReplyDeleteAgain great advice Dink and it helps keep the enthusiasm with the game. I now regularly get the gift box and have been lucky in getting a top ten and some top 30's. You are spot on with the perfect cast but something I've noticed is that you don't always have to cast as far as you can, sometimes a 60 - 80% perfect cast will get an S or SS fish. The SSS fish are quite rare but I have a trick which seems to work 8 out of 10 casts, that is wait till you see two sets of ripples next to each other, if you can get it as a perfect within these rings you will get an SS or SSS fish.
ReplyDeleteThe other thing I have seen is that some of the rings only last a second or two and others a bit longer, there is normally a better fish under the longer time ripples and an A rank fish on the shorter ones.
Thanks again for the great advice

Good tips B. I'll try them out. Thanks.
Deleteyeh, absolutely nice tips, will try this soon....
Deletethanks for sharing m8

Some unfortunate info....
ReplyDeleteIt seems gamevil has possibly changed the points needed for IS boxes. I haven't confirmed this with my experience yet, but please let me know if you're finding the same.
WTF gamEVIL?
Confirmed. One of the best things about the game has gone to shit. Thanks for nothing gamEVIL. I won't waste another star on stamina or retries at IS. Now, it truly is a wasted site.
DeleteDinkdink
can you explain bro ?
Deleteaboubeh
When you would score 8400 points in an event, you would get a box. Now, if you score 8800 points for the same exact event, you get only 2* and no box. It's infuriating and has become a waste of time!
DeleteDink I can confirm the same, 5 runs through Class B beginner event (4 rods) with the usual fish, points 8380, 8560 & 8700 got two star reward, final run through 8988 points got IS chest (rubbish rewards). Last week before V2.2.9 all 4 scores would have got a chest. Agree with ur comments GV has just ruined it
ReplyDeleteBeario
Yeah, I'm still running 2.2.8 and still, it's ruined the coolest part of the game. Great invention, was great rewards. Now, it's shit.
DeleteDink ( or anybody else), even the best gold rod (Red Dragon) gives only 910 points?
ReplyDeleteRamaiDas 9* tank
Correct. I have lightning and blue bamboo. Both are 910.
DeleteThank you, man! ;)
DeleteOne more question: Do you know if Black Tortoise gives 910 too?
Cause i have some gold to take a gold rod and want it to give 910 points at IS.
RamaiDas
I got the answer in the chat with the other m8s! But thanks anyway! :)
DeleteRamaiDas
I though maybe it was just me. I can usually get 3* about 50% of the time but only once all weekend? Back to hunting fish that never bite I guess...
ReplyDeleteThanks gamEVIL
Dink I think this is a bug on infinity ship as I have now had two top 20 spots and only got 2 stars, if this is intended by gv no one will be getting IS gift boxes
ReplyDeleteBeario
Dink n others I've had some success with the 3 rod events
ReplyDeleteBeario
But its not the same got 1 box should of got 3 normally not fishing it until fixed hopefully DB73
ReplyDeleteSame here. I'm not going to spend more baits than I can earn
ReplyDeleteDink Good last night came 4th getting boxes it was ok but today it's hard again DB73
ReplyDeleteAnybody knows if it is worth to go from Amateur to Class B?
ReplyDeleteWhats the advantages to go to a better tier?
RamaiDas
Really not much.you'll earn star gear instead of gold which is 1k combine points. You'll still be able to do some amateur events. If I had to do it over, I'd stay at amateur.
DeleteThank you!
DeleteThen i decide to stay at amateur.
Still prefer the gold to buy good gold rods for premium sites.
If only were star rods too... But just gears do not worth to advance to the next classes.
RamaiDas
How do you level up in the classes?
ReplyDeleteYou'll get the opportunity to play in a level up event. I forget the actual name, but if you're successful, you automatically go to class B. I didn't realize that and it took me there even though I didn't want to do it.
DeletePlay Promotion event
DeleteIs there any benefit to playing the amateur IS events with more than 3 stages? To me they seem way more difficult to get IS boxes and use more stamina, so why bother? Am I missing something?
ReplyDeleteElieebe
There are axolotos, a snapping turtle, and hammerhead shark to catch at infinity ship. Has anyone caught them? If anyone caught them, kindly let me know what they bite and tips on catching them. Thank you!!!
ReplyDeleteI noticed that, too, but I never caught them. It seems that here nobody is interested in these fishes, as nobody answers to your question.
Deletejaildan
Yes, can anybody tell us if somebody caught them and how? this is an interresting question. Please reply :) thank you
DeleteOk...this is pissing me off. 8 times trying on the class a promotion at is and every time I get to the final stage, I get "there's a lag in your internet connection...blahblahblah". So there I've lost the baits I used, the stamina I used, the points I gained...bullshit...for the 1st time since I started playing (almost 2yrs now) I'm actually considering quitting.
ReplyDeleteI'm farming boxes regularly in there now, great for bait and energy,selling stuff for cash.
