Red King Arowana

[mental shore]

Has anyone had problems with weather never being stormy raining or windy on the last week of fall to catch the redking? I have tried two seansons worth and no luck even started a new game hoping to get this and no luck. Also the wiki says the 22-28 of fall but the 28th is a festival day and the weather will not change from what I have noticed. So how do we get this fish if its that difficult its the last thing I need for the museum.

Same here in literally all points. 😔

If you do a little searching you'll find instructions on how to preserve a backup at the start of the week, so you can retry if the week remains sunny. Weather gets randomly determined on a specific day for the entire week.

[mental shore]

Is that possible for console? Im playing it on Xbox Series X gamepass

[zealous merlin]

Sadly no idea - I play PC where this sort of thing is easy.

[simple cloak]

3 years here and weather aways sunny the entire week

[solid blade]

Add this to bug report bro, i have the same problem too, its always sunny and windy

[simple cloak]

I don't think they consider it a bug, just bad luck

[wicked pulsar]

It can be caught on windy days

[solid blade]

Nope bro, i only get rare fish on full day fishing

[modern dragon]

then just reset the day on windy days to get it, make sure your in water, earth, or fire mines during fall 22-28

[wicked pulsar]

I'm not sure what that has to do with what I said though? You said it's always windy or sunny, this fish can be caught on windy days

[simple cloak]

This fish can only be caught during the last week of autumn, in the mines, and only if the weather is rainy or windy. It turns out that, in my game, it is never rainy or windy in the last week of autumn, for 3 consecutive years. I'm going into the 4th year. And there's nothing to do, it's not a bug, just bad luck.

[wicked pulsar]

just go into your backups and re roll the weather

[simple cloak]

there is no backup in ps5

[wicked pulsar]

bah, I thought that was added for everyone. that does suck then

[solid blade]

There are no backup in xbox too, btw how to get so much money? Any tutorial for me?

[wicked pulsar]

just kind of playing the game, everything makes you money. Especially if you're working on filling the museum, because you end up with so many extra fish and bugs and fossils and artifacts you can sell

[simple cloak]

Grow strawberries in the greenhouse, as they grow back after being harvested. Sell ​​the low quality ones and use the osmium ones to make juice and later wine.
Use the automatic chests to set up a production conveyor that will make juices and wines for you without any effort, you just need to put strawberries in the chest and collect wines to sell.
Other artisan products good for making money are aged honey, aged goat cheese, aged quail egg, aged gesha coffee, white truffle oil. Use the same strategy, automatic chests.

I got windy some times, but i still didnt catch the red king arowana, my fishing rod is gold and im using 20 medium fish bait and i have 4 large fish bait for, still didnt get it

[solid blade]

Thanks bro

[wicked pulsar]

Well, don't use large bait, that would be shooting yourself in the foot. it's a medium size fish

[solid blade]

Still didnt get it bruh

Ive tried all 3 mines, lava, wind and water

[wicked pulsar]

I went down to level 5 if the fire mines and got it first pull. it's all just RNG

[solid blade]

What is rng?

[wicked pulsar]

Randomly Generated Number. Chance. You just rolled a crit fail

[solid blade]

maybee 🤣, hope next ill get it

[solid blade]

Btw what is the best time to fish for that red arowana?

[wicked pulsar]

It's a really short window. Afternoon and evening is only noon until 6PM

[simple cloak]

I found out that there really is a backup on the Ps5, but it needed to be activated manually in the game options. Unfortunately, on Ps5 the backup is only from the previous day, and there is no way to go back a whole week. As the day before the weather of the next day has already been determined, it will also not be possible to change the weather.

[modern dragon]

Yeah same with xbox

Unless you somehow got a way to make copy of save files

[modest walrus]

So i have had show back up on on ps5 from the start but it doesn't show up at all for me

[simple cloak]

on load game screen you need to check 'show backup' again in de left lower corner

[modest walrus]

Aha. I was looking for it in the load screen in game not from title menu. Thanks!

[simple cloak]

I finally got it! after checking the weather forecast, returning to the 20th and repeating this until the weather was non-sunny. Then I went to the water mine, 5th level, exactly at noon, with medium fishing bait, and it came on the first try.

[solid blade]

Xbox? How? I play on xbox and didint find backup file

[wicked pulsar]

did you enable it in settings?
