What kind of fish are available and what is their effect

torchlight-2

In Torchlight 2 you can go fishing in special places, but which kind of fish can you get? I am also particular interested in understanding which fish gives to your pet the most powerful transformation and what damage bonus get from them.

Best Answer

According to the list on the Torchlight wikia:

Fish sizes

Normal - Transform for 5 minutes

"Big" - Transform for 15 minutes

"Giant" - Transform permanently, until another fish is consumed. If this is a non-permanent fish/egg, then after that one expires your pet is transformed back into its original form.

Jackal Bass - Transform into a Jackalbeast.

Largemouth Bass - Transform into a Mimic.
