Ascending Fishers

Start with a fishing rod. Build an empire. Ascend beyond the ocean.

Ascending Fishers is a progression-focused ocean skyblock-style modpack built around one simple idea:

Fishing is your mine.

You begin on a tiny platform above an endless ocean with almost nothing. Your first catches provide the resources needed to survive, expand your island, and unlock increasingly powerful fishing equipment.

What starts with one rod and a few blocks eventually grows into a massive automated base filled with factories, storage networks, power systems, magic, farms, custom equipment, and dangerous bosses.

Fishing Is Your Progression

Instead of beginning with traditional mining, Ascending Fishers uses custom fishing systems and Infused Waters to generate resources.

Upgrade your Anglers Pole through multiple tiers and improve:

• Quantity — catch more resources
• Luck — improve valuable drops
• Speed — fish faster
• Bobbers & Lures — specialize your fishing setup

As you progress, new waters unlock new materials, dimensions, and automation possibilities.

Eventually, the Auto Angler transforms fishing into a fully automated resource system.

One fishing rod can eventually feed an entire factory.

20 Chapters of Progression

The main questline guides you from your first catch all the way to the Anglers Master Trophy.

Along the journey, you'll progress through systems from mods such as:

• Create
• Mekanism
• Applied Energistics 2
• Powah
• Ars Nouveau
• Integrated Dynamics
• Mystical Agriculture
• Industrial Foregoing
• Hostile Neural Networks
• Extended Crafting
• Draconic Evolution
• Flux Networks
• and many more

The goal is not to simply place mods beside each other.

Fishing feeds automation. Automation feeds processing. Processing feeds storage and power. Stronger systems unlock stronger equipment, dimensions, and bosses.

Everything is designed to build into the next stage.

Automation and Integration

Ascending Fishers is built around connecting its major systems together.

Your island can grow from simple early-game storage into advanced networks using:

• Applied Energistics 2
• Advanced AE2 expansions
• MEGA Cells
• Applied Flux
• Ars Energistique
• Mekanism integration
• Functional Storage
• Sophisticated Storage
• Pipez
• Integrated Dynamics
• Flux Networks
• Create automation

AE2 can eventually become the center of your island, connecting items, autocrafting, energy, Source, machines, and large-scale automation into one network.

Custom Ascending Fishers Content

The included Ascending Fishers Core mod adds systems created specifically for the pack, including:

• Custom Anglers Poles
• Infused Waters
• Auto Anglers
• Custom fishing loot
• Custom armor progression

• Heart Canisters

Custom Boss Progression

The ocean holds more than resources.

Throughout the pack you will encounter custom bosses tied directly into your equipment and progression.

Face increasingly dangerous encounters such as:

• Ironjaw
• Abyssal Sovereign
• Endless Leviathan
• Abyssal Crown Leviathan

The final encounters are designed to feel like the culmination of everything you have built throughout the pack.

Beyond the Trophy

Crafting the Anglers Master Trophy does not have to end your world.

Beyond the Trophy continues the progression into powerful postgame systems involving:

• Advanced Applied Energistics 2
• Large-scale automation
• Mystical Agriculture
• Industrial Foregoing
• Hostile Neural Networks
• Extended Crafting
• Draconic Evolution
• Advanced Create systems
• Power and storage expansion

The postgame is designed for players who want to push their island far beyond the normal campaign.

Optional Mod Guides

Ascending Fishers also includes a separate Mod Guides quest section.

These optional quests teach the major mods without forcing hundreds of tutorial steps into the main progression.

Use them when you need help learning a system, or ignore them and continue through the main journey.
