Quests

Bugs

  • Catfish may be requested in a Fishing quest during Winter, requiring a Rain Totem to be used, despite 1.4.4 version patch notes detailing its removal from the quest.

History

  • 1.4: Removed from garbage cans and most quests in Winter. Added iridium quality. Can now be used in Tailoring.
  • 1.4.4: Fixed a mistake in the game data that prevented catfish-specific fish pond data from being applied (in earlier versions, catfish used the same fish pond data as all generic river fish). Catfish can no longer be requested by Demetrius or Willy in a Fishing Help Wanted quest during Winter.
  • 1.6: One is contained in the Community Center Fish Tank right after it is repaired. Can now be gifted by a pet cat with max friendship.
