The Artaeum Pickled Fish Bowl is a unique dish learned from the Recipe: Artaeum Picked Fish Bowl. Its recipe can only be found inside a Waterlogged Psijic Satchel which can be obtained by fishing on Artaeum only.
Unlike regular recipes, the Artaeum Pickled Fish Bowl recipe is account-bound on pickup, meaning it cannot be traded or sold. If you wish to buy it, you will need to take a chance and buy Waterlogged Psijic Satchels instead.
EffectEdit
The effect of this food isn't clearly described in-game, but was described in the 4.0.7 patch notes:
"Fixed an issue that caused the Artaeum Pickled Fish Bowl to double the number of fish you receive under certain circumstances. The intended effect is that this food increases your chances to acquire rare fish, similar to the bonus that occurs when another player is fishing from the same fishing hole."
There is some evidence to suggest this increases the frequency of special fish drops by ~50%.
When fishing in a group, it remains unclear whether the percentage increase from the potion is the same as when fishing solo, but it seems likely that there are decreasing returns as group size grows. It is also unclear whether the whole group gets the advantage of the virtual "extra person", or whether this only affects the drops of the players who drink it.
