Clamming

Hobby in which various items can be dug up at a clamming point.


 * Go to Bibiki Bay - Purgonorgo Isle via the Manaclipper and talk to Toh Zonikki to receive a Clamming Kit (key item) including a clamming bucket that holds 50 pz (ponzes).
 * Your first kit is free, subsequent kits cost 500g.


 * There are 4 clamming beaches, one for each cardinal direction. You land from the Manaclipper at the north beach, and there is one clamming point there.  East and west beach each have 2 points, and south has 3.
 * The points do not move and respawn in about 20 seconds.


 * Initially the goal of Clamming is to dig up 50pz without going over. If you go over, the clamming bucket breaks, all items are lost, and you are forced to start over with a new kit.
 * When ready, find and click on Clamming Point and select the option to "dig".
 * Upon digging you can find the items listed below. Each weighs a set amount of ponzes.  You can continue to dig until either you turn your bucket in and collect yout catch, or your bucket gets too heavy and breaks.
 * At any point prior to your bucket breaking, you may turn the bucket in to Toh Zonikki, at which point you will receive your catch. You will need to get another kit from Toh Zonikki for 500g to go clamming again.
 * If you catch at least 46pz in your 50pz bucket, Toh Zonikki will offer you the option of upgrading your bucket to a 100pz bucket and continuing to clam.
 * If you catch at least 96pz in your 100pz bucket, Toh Zonikki will offer you the option of upgrading your bucket to a 150pz bucket and continuing to clam.
 * If you catch at least 146pz in your 150pz bucket, Toh Zonikki will offer you the option of upgrading your bucket to a 200pz bucket and continuing to clam.
 * If you keep clamming past this point it is possible that you will get the message: "Something jumps into your bucket and breaks through the bottom! All your shellfish are washed back into the sea..."  If this happens you lose everything.


 * The sale prices listed below are to Pohka Chichiyowahl, the mithra who sells fishing rods near the Manaclipper dock. Some items, most notably the Coral Fragment, are typically worth more at the auction house.
 * To keep track of how many ponzes your bucket is holding, see: The Clamming Kit, or Clam Bucketeer!.
