Talk:Reaver Shark

50% fishing power
Can it be caught with less than 50% fishing power? Perhaps we should specify the algorithm just a *little* bit more.
 * Yes, it can be caught with less than 50% fishing power. Those numbers are just examples. Nothing really becomes uncatchable with low fishing power; they can merely become extremely unlikely. This is according to my understanding, at least -- fishing is one of the more complex drop calculations that go on in Terraria, and I don't have a complete grasp of it. You can find info on this mechanic at the top of the Fishing page, with some added info in its Notes section. Equazcion  ( talk ) 19:53, 31 May 2015 (UTC)

Mining speed
"It is about 4.5% faster than the Molten Pickaxe." This is very misleading, because both the Reaver Shark and the Molten Pickaxe have the same mining speed of 18. The 4.5% difference only exists for the use time, which merely affects the speed of the swing. While that makes a difference for combat uses, the mining speed is unaffected by that value.

Ok what the heck
I have fished way too long for the Reaver Shark. In the process I've gotten: 8 sawtooth sharks, 10 swordfish and 3 balloon pufferfish. I'm fishing with a fisher of souls with average bait such as fireflies and assorted baits from the Angler, is there something I'm doing wrong because this seems ridiculous. FinNyx is awesome <3~
