The Azure Dragon race in Fishing Master provides a strong collection of passive bonuses, making it one of the most desirable progressions once you arrive at Island 5 (Volcano Island). Unlocking this race requires meeting specific milestone criteria, obtaining a particular legendary skill, and turning in rare catches to an island NPC.
This guide details all prerequisites, step-by-step quest requirements, the fastest completion strategies observed by players, and the exact stat buffs the race provides.
Requirements to Access Island 5
Before attempting the race quest, you must unlock Island 5. Moving between high-level islands in Fishing Master requires both currency and progression catches from the prior zone.
- Coins Required: 4,000,000 coins
- Fish Required: 3 Legendary fish caught from Island 4 (Snow Island)
Because fish on Island 5 have massive health pools—often ranging from 2 million HP for epic fish up to 15 million to 18 million HP for legendary fish—having a high-damage setup such as the Legacy G rod or upgraded rods is strongly recommended before attempting to grind here.
Azure Dragon Race Quest Steps
The quest for the Azure Dragon race is issued by the NPC named Chan, located on the volcanic terrain of Island 5.
To complete the quest and awaken the race, you must satisfy two separate conditions:
- Submit 3 Legendary Fish from Island 5: You must catch and turn in three legendary fish native to the fifth island. Documented legendary catches on this map include the Engine Chorf fish (around 1,000 kg) and the Lava Raron fish (with health scaling between 15 million and 18 million HP). Player testing confirms you must hand over the three legendary fish first before the game registers eliminations for the second stage.
- Defeat 100 Fish with One Hook Supreme: You must finish off 100 fish using the specific skill translated as "One Hook Supreme" (also referred to in community gameplay as "One Cast" or "First Cast").
How to Get the One Hook Supreme Skill
The One Hook Supreme skill is not unlocked via Island 5 quests. Instead, it must be rolled from the skill chest system located back at the Starter Island (Island 1).
- Skill Rarity: Legendary tier (yellow aura).
- Location: Starter Island skill gacha roll area.
- Cost: Standard skill roll costs (players have rolled batches of 10 for 425,000 coins depending on roll discounts).
- Mechanic: The skill deals heavy strike damage (up to a 135x multiplier in community tests) to rapidly deplete a hooked fish's stamina bar.
Because skill books must be detached from an old rod before mounting them onto a new rod (per official game mechanics), remember to equip One Hook Supreme to your active rod before beginning the elimination count.
Fastest Strategy for the 100 Elimination Quest
While you must catch the 3 legendary fish on Island 5, players have confirmed that the 100 skill eliminations do not have to be completed against Island 5 fish.
Grinding 100 fish on Island 5 is exceptionally slow due to fish health reaching several million HP. To complete this requirement quickly:
- Fast Travel to Island 1: Return to the Starter Island either by boat or using the fast travel pass.
- Single-Skill Setup: Unequip other damage skills from your rod so that only One Hook Supreme triggers, or time your casts manually.
- One-Hit Catches: Fish at Island 1 have low HP pools. Activating One Hook Supreme finishes them off almost instantly on hook, allowing you to hit the 100-catch quota in a fraction of the time.
- Return to Chan: Head back to Island 5 and speak to the NPC Chan to turn in the completed challenge and receive the race.
Azure Dragon Race Stat Buffs
Once unlocked, the race buffs can be viewed in your character stats menu by pressing Key 4. The Azure Dragon race applies four passive stat increases:
| Stat / Benefit | Value |
|---|---|
| Skill Damage (Book Skills) | +10% |
| Luck | +10 |
| Extra Fish Sell Price | +5% |
| Extra Experience (EXP) | +5% |
The combination of bonus luck and extra skill damage makes the race especially useful for tackling subsequent endgame zones, such as grinding boss encounters or preparing for Island 6.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which NPC gives the Azure Dragon race quest?
The quest is given by the NPC named Chan, located on Island 5 (Volcano Island).
Can I catch the 100 skill fish on any island?
Yes. Player testing demonstrates that returning to Island 1 allows you to one-shot low-HP fish with the One Hook Supreme skill, and all 100 catches still register toward Chan's quest progress.
What rarity is the One Hook Supreme skill?
One Hook Supreme is a Legendary-tier (yellow) skill obtained from the Starter Island skill roll mechanic.
Do I need to submit the legendary fish before doing the 100 eliminations?
Yes. In-game testing shows that the quest requires submitting the three Island 5 legendary fish first before the 100 skill elimination counter activates properly.
