Wade's Fishing Hole

Level: 60+
Location: announced in World Chat, manual entry only [update: part of What Passes for Fate now]
Late entry: No


This quest has three versions and is used for leveling soul gates [no longer needed for soul gate], finishing weekend bounties [bounties are no longer available], and for a quest for Figaro the mouse in Nightfall. Each version supplies a different part for Figaro's quest.

The three versions are treant, which supplies the unbreakable wood; spider, which supplies the bait; and naga, which supplies the scales for the lures. The world chat announcement will tell you which monsters Wade is fishing for at that time and where you can find Wade [defunct - randomly gotten through Fate now].

Once you see the announcement in world chat, you have 90 mins to get your party together and enter the instance. Your entire party must be on the same realm and at Wades when the leader enters. anyone left behind can not get in. You can only enter once per announcement, so be sure you are ready [also defunct - randomly gotten through Fate now].

Things to consider when forming a party (at level):
  • You will need good heals.  These guys hit hard and can mob unexpectedly.
  • Combat resurrection is especially good for the treant and naga versions.
  • AOE is good as well - but should be well controlled or your party will get mobbed.
  • DPS is a must as there is a timer to this instance. 
  • You will need a good tank for all of them - but especially the spider version as someone will need to aggravate the mob into breaking the crate/jar.
The most important things to remember for each of these is to keep the mobs away from the resurrection spawn area and to break the mobs up for killing.

In each version, you will see a roped off area that has three dyads with a ! above their head. DO NOT CLICK. These offer a one-time emergency assist. You want to save them for that emergency.

Treant Bank tips for at level completion:
Get your group away from your spawn area immediately. Gather down the hill to the left. You want to gather in an area that will not aggro the mobs as they collect together. Once they collect, you can pull them in small bunches until they are all dead. The treant collect near the player spawn site which makes it very difficult to get back in the fight. You may need to send a player on a suicide mission to draw them away while everyone else leaves the spawn site if your party wipes.

Naga Shore tips for at level completion:
You need to break eggs to summon the naga. Only ONE person should be in charge of breaking eggs, and the mobs summoned must be drawn away from the egg area to avoid breaking more. And make sure that pets are all off attack mode as they may go break an egg or two themselves. If too many eggs get broken, too many mobs come and will wipe your party. The naga default to collecting near the player spawn area, making it tough to get back into the fight. You may need to send a player on a suicide mission to draw them away while everyone else leaves the spawn site if your party wipes. The best place for your party to collect is to the far right of the shore. Then have a designated puller bring a few to the group for killing.

Spider Bog tips for at level completion:
This I find to be easy since the mobs do not collect at the spawn site. The thing that makes this harder is that you have to make one of the mobs break a crate or pot to summon the rest - so you need a really good tank, and you can't kill all the mobs as you need one remaining to break the next box. Have the group stay above the crest of the hill and have a designated person pull a couple of the mobs up to them to kill. If the designated puller gets themselves into trouble and gets mobbed, it's best to let them die and respawn.
Warning: there is a hole somewhere at the base of the rock that the mobs sometimes slip into. If too many people are at the bottom on the shore, the bugs find their way into this hole and go missing for a time. The instance will not progress until they find their way out again. 


THIS may also help although it is very difficult to read.
