Description

First talk to Yaya, who is near the Fishing guild, she tells you to go talk to Oswald. Oswald is found inside the Hotel.

Oswald has lost his favorite ring while at the pier one day. Unfortunately for Oswald, he knows where it went. Oswald's poor ring fell into the water, now lost forever. Or is it? A greedie fish, you see, has a penchant for swallowing shiny things, maybe one little greedie came along and swallowed it up. If that's the case, then fishing up the greedie will lead to retrieving the ring.

Indeed, that's all you have to do. However, it's not as easy as it seems. The greedie in particular you have to fish up is a Rare Ex fish called a Fat Greedie. Although Jimaida (inside the Fishing Guild) will offer to cut open any greedies you find looking for the ring, no greedie will contain the ring except the Fat Greedie. It has been my experience that you won't catch the Fat Greedie until level 10-11 fishing skill (you may get one at lower skills, but you won't catch many until 10 or 11), so the best bet is to raise your skill level somewhere where there is ample bait and a place to turn in fish for a decent sum until then. When finally fishing for the Fat Greedie, rarely do greedies bite on anything but lugworms, but ou'll want a Mid-Level (a very durable small fish fishing) Rod to catch it, as the Fat Greedie seems to seems classified as a large fish even if still caught with lugworms and a small catch rod.

Trade Zeldon the fat greedie for him to cut it open, he hands you an etched ring back.

Give the ring to Oswald for your reward.

I think you can go to the guy in the fishing guild and he will open more greedies for you. Maybe you can get other items I haven't tried this yet.

i was at level 1 when i caught the fat greedie...
i was waiting for the ship to come so i pull out the Grass fiber rod(?) and a lure "minnor"(?) (don't remember) and started fishing...
i got it after 3 jellyfish and 1 lose catch...
and i got it again...but it said my inventory is full (which isn't...still at 28/30) and i have to let it go regretfully(?)
anyway...fishing skill is not the factor...

it is a rare/ex fish so you can only catch one (rare) and it cannot be traded to PC or sold at AH (ex).

The people that caught it on with fishing skill 0, where were you fishing from? The pier or by the guy that offers the sub-class quest?

I caught my fat greedie like Xeon... 0 fishing skill, glass fiber rod, and lugworm.

I think I only fished for a total of 35 minutes.

I caught a Fat Greedie at level 1 after spending haft an hour fishing for fun. I guess it was luck since I wasn't even looking for it.

Sorry, the amber earring stats are +2 lightning and +2 light resist. It's difficult to tell.
More info.

Someone next to me caught Fat Greedie with a fishing skill of 4, while I caught it with a fishing skill of 12. It just takes patience to obtain this fish - sort of what fishing in general requires.

Lugworms, which can be purchased right behind the area you fish in do indeed work. And a glass fiber fishing rod will catch the Fat Greedie.

The reward is pretty craptastic, a level 10 amber earring with +2 fire, +2 water resist (I believe those are the stats).
