Fishing
How Fishing XP is earned depends on whether a fishing mod is installed:
With a fishing mod (e.g., HyFishing)
When HyFishing is installed, Fishing XP comes exclusively from rod catches. Killing fish mobs awards weapon combat XP (or nothing) like any other mob — no Fishing XP is awarded from kills in any combat mode.
Without a fishing mod
Without a fishing integration, the plugin recognizes 18+ aquatic mob types and routes them to Fishing XP instead of weapon XP. This behavior depends on the active combat XP mode:
- Per-Hit and Kill-Only — Fish kills award Fishing XP (the only way to level Fishing without a mod)
- Damage+Kill — Fish kills award weapon kill XP like any other mob (damage hits already award weapon XP)
- Damage — No special fish handling; weapon XP from damage hits only
XP Values
