**Fossil Fishing**&#x20;

Fossils can only be caught with NFT rods when used in their own fishing zone.

The chance to get a fossil is determined by the NFT rod used, but the rarity of the fossil fished up is determined by the chance table below:

<table><thead><tr><th width="160">Rarity</th><th width="144">Chance</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>Common</td><td>45%</td></tr><tr><td>Rare</td><td>30%</td></tr><tr><td>Epic</td><td>20%</td></tr><tr><td>Legendary</td><td>4.9%</td></tr><tr><td>Mythic</td><td>0.1%</td></tr></tbody></table>

However, Fossil Fishing also has **Mythic Pity**:

* Guarantees a mythic fossil on the 300th fossil
* x5 and x20 fishing will increase both the pity given and the amount of pity required.

**Fossil FAQ**

Q1) What happens when a rod has both a chance to fish fossils as well as shiny fish?

The shiny fish chance is applied **AFTER** the fossil chance.

Q2) How does bait interact with fossils?

Bait only affects chances when a fish is the result of the cast, not fossils.
