🧿 Shard Rod Upgrades

The Shard Rod is Mirage’s fishing-focused progression tool, designed to generate Shards through active fishing in configured worlds.

Unlike vanilla fishing, the Shard Rod uses a fully custom reward system that allows servers to turn fishing into a meaningful progression path with economy, crate, and high-tier rewards.

All upgrades are purchased through the Shard Rod Upgrade Menu and apply instantly to the rod.

⬆ How Upgrades Work

  • Upgrades are purchased in-game via the upgrade menu
  • Each enchant has its own:
  • Starting level
  • Maximum level
  • Proc chance
  • Upgrade cost curve
  • All values shown below are defaults and can be fully configured
  • Upgrades are bound to the rod, not the player

This allows fishing to scale competitively without becoming passive or exploitable.
