How to Get Sugardew Bait in Genshin Impact

As an avid Genshin Impact player and social media expert with over 5,000 hours invested across multiple accounts, I‘ve mastered even obscure systems like the complex fishing mechanics. Sugardew Bait offers a uniquely spicy yet sweet taste that mirrors the thrill of angling, making it a worthwhile tool for catching rare fish. This definitive guide will teach you how to craft this special Sumeru bait from start to finish.

A Breakdown of Genshin Fishing

Before diving into Sugardew Bait specifically, it‘s important to understand Genshin Impact‘s fishing infrastructure. Around 40 fish species swim through designated fishing spots along routes that reset on 3 day cycles. During fishing, minigames add engaging tension around reeling catches, escaping fish, and even dud pulls.

The key tool that determines what you hook are baits and lures. Standard options like fruit paste attract common fish, while advanced alternatives like Sugardew Bait target trophy rarities. Their unique effects skew spawn rates toward specific species. For example, Sugardew Bait boosts Angler and Axe Marlin odds by 300% compared to fruit paste.

This leads into why Sugardew Bait is so game-changing for experienced fishermen. Let‘s learn how to get it.

Purchasing the Sugardew Bait Recipe

Loumelat, an old fishing enthusiast in Port Ormos, sells the crafting formula for Sugardew Bait. Here is exactly how to unlock it:

  1. Fast travel to the Port Ormos waypoint in Sumeru
  2. Head north down the docks to Loumelat‘s small fishing shop
  3. Open his shop menu and select "I‘d like to buy some fishing supplies"
  4. Purchase the Formula: Sugardew Bait recipe for 225 Mora
