Obtainment

  • Pearls can be caught whilst fishing on any fishing island or from Crab Pots, with the following base chances:
Pearl Chance
Rough 94.9%
Polished 5%
Pristine 0.1%
  • The rarity and number of Pearls caught is based on the player's Glimmering Hook and Pearl Magnet perk points.
  • Pearls have a base catch rate of 5%. This chance can be increased by several factors:
    • Glimmering Winds (+5%)
    • Fishing in a Fishing Spot with the Pearl Chance buff (+5%)
    • Levelling up the Pearl Chance perk (up to +5%)
    • Activating the Unstable Overclock and setting it to Pearl Chance (up to +5%)
    • Using a A.N.G.L.R. Pearl Lure or A.N.G.L.R. Pearl Ultralure (+100%)

Strategies

  • Catching as many Pearls as possible is necessary for levelling up your Fishing Perks at the high levels. There are 2 main strategies for pearl grinding:
    • Ultraluring - using the following augments and fishing on islands with Glimmering Tide and at spots with high Glimmering Hook and Pearl Magnet buffs: . This is the generally the better strategy so long as you have the augments to support it.
    • Grotto Maxing - getting as many grottos as possible to fish at spots with 100% Pearl Chance, which is cheaper on the augments side but also slower. Your augments should look something like this: , and then during Grottos switching the Speedy Rods to Stable Rods. You can also swap out one of the Speedy Rods for a A.N.G.L.R. Pearl Ultralure for pearl gains outside of grottos, if you have too many.[1]
  • Remember that Glimmering Winds only buff the chance to obtain a Pearl, so they aren't necessary when using an ultralure!
  • If you're low on Pearl Magnets, it can be worth scavenging Glimmering Hooks, Graceful Rods and Glimmering Pots for spirits to buy more augments with.
