Is Fishing the only way to get Buffalo Fish?
Buffalo Fish can be obtained in several ways except for fishing:
— Wheel of Fortune
— Old Road event
— Raiding a neighbor’s base
Fishing is one of the sources — but not the only one.
Why is Buffalo Fish harder to get?
The drop rate of Buffalo Fish is lower than that of other fish you can catch while fishing.
This is intentional, as Buffalo Fish has additional value for equipment repairs. It is designed to be rarer than regular fish, making it a useful bonus rather than a common resource.
Can I eat Fried Fish?
Yes. If your character is starving, you can still eat Fried Fish to survive.
However, due to its repair value, many players prefer to save it for equipment maintenance.
