Overview
The Appraiser is a specialized NPC located just beside the merchant's shop in Moosewood. With a keen eye for detail, this character assists players by evaluating their fish and potentially altering their attributes.
The Appraiser plays a crucial role in the game by offering a service that can change the weight of a fish, either increasing or decreasing it. This process, known as appraising, comes with a fee that varies based on the fish's rarity and any existing mutations.
Players have the opportunity to appraise their fish in hopes of gaining unique titles or mutations. The appraising process may result in a fish gaining or losing weight and occasionally acquiring a mutation, which can significantly influence its value.
Appraising during a Mutation Surge increases your chances of obtaining rare mutations.
Trivia
- Appraising fish used to have a uniform cost, irrespective of the fish's rarity or mutations.
- The Appraiser's talk sound is a modified version of Papyrus's sound from Undertale.
