The Legend II is the successor to the Legend, the king of the Mountain Lake. It belongs to a special set of Legendary Fish that appears only during Mr. Qi's "Extended Family" quest. It shares the Legend's home, its huge sell price and its fearsome difficulty. Unlike the original, it ignores the seasons and the weather, and more than one can be caught while the quest runs. It is the hardest of the quest's relatives to land, so it deserves the best rod, tackle and food buff available.

Catching

The Legend II can only be hooked while the "Extended Family" special order is active. Mr. Qi offers the quest in Qi's Walnut Room on Ginger Island. Once it is accepted, there are three days to catch the Legend II and each of its legendary relatives. The reward for finishing is 20 Qi Gems.

During the quest, the Legend II bites in the Mountain Lake in any season and any weather. It follows the same placement rules as the Legend. The bobber must land in deep water, at least four tiles from land on every side, and bridges count as land. Fishing level 10 is still required, though a food buff can make up the difference.

The fight is just as hard as the original. The Legend II has the highest difficulty of any fish and mixed behaviour, changing direction often and without warning. Fitting an Iridium Rod with a Cork Bobber or a Trap Bobber gives the best odds of landing it. The Cork Bobber widens the green bar, while the Trap Bobber slows the progress bar when the fish escapes it. Eating Lobster Bisque helps, because it raises Fishing and Max Energy at once.

The quest lasts only three days, so the route is worth planning before it is accepted. The other relatives live in the Pelican Town river, Cindersap Forest, The Beach and The Sewers.

Prices

The Legend II sells for the same price as the Legend, which places it among the most valuable fish in the valley. Iridium quality doubles the base value, and the Fisher and Angler professions add a quarter or a half on top. A Fish Smoker doubles the price again while keeping the quality, so a smoked iridium Legend II sells for 20,000g before professions.

Since more than one can be caught during a single quest, extras can be sold without giving up a trophy. A Fish Pond can also hold one Legend II. The pond never grows beyond that single fish, but it produces Legend II Roe worth 2,530g on some days. A Preserves Jar turns the roe into Aged Roe worth 5,060g.

Uses

Its main purpose is the "Extended Family" quest. Like any fish, it can also go into Sashimi, Maki Roll or Quality Fertilizer, but that wastes almost all of its value.

Gifts

The Legend II is not a welcome present. Demetrius, Leo, Linus, Pam, Sebastian and Willy are neutral about it.

Abigail, Alex, Emily, Harvey, Leah, Maru, Penny, Sam and Shane all dislike Legend II. The children Jas and Vincent dislike it as well, as do the older residents Caroline, George, Jodi, Kent and Lewis. The same goes for the shop owners Clint, Gus, Marnie and Robin, and for the Dwarf, Krobus, Sandy and the Wizard.

Evelyn, Haley and Pierre hate it.

Notes

Reach Fishing level 10 and buy the best tackle before accepting the quest. As the toughest catch on the list, the Legend II is a sensible first target on the opening morning of the quest.
