Glimmering Hook

From MCC Island Wiki


Glimmering Hook is a perk and statistic in Fishing, increasing the chance to catch Polished and Pristine Pearls.

Each type of pearls has the following catch chances:

Pearl Base Catch Chance Maxed Upgrade Chances (20) Maximum Obtainable Chances (90)
94.9% 84.7% 49%
5% 15% 50%
0.1% 0.3% 1%
Each perk point the player has increases their Tier Multiplier by +0.1, increasing the chance to catch Polished and Pristine pearls and decreasing the chance of Rough.
Rough Chance = 1 - (Polished Chance + Pristine Chance)
Polished Chance = 0.05 * ((0.1 * Glimmering Hook) + 1)
Pristine Chance = 0.001 * ((0.1 * Glimmering Hook) + 1)
