Commento di solaceinrage

Found on the small floating isle to the Northwest of Dalaran, and accessible by going through the crack in the wall near the bank in that area of the city. Used the demon hunter glide ability to get there and see what if anything was there, and found Margoss wandering around with a small blue voidwalker named Blythe. He has a reputation bar and mentions fishing, but there doesn't seem to be a way to interact and gain faction with him at the moment.

Attempting to fish in the pond gives a message that there are no fish there, and since there is no alternate way off without flight I jumped and glided toward Suramar to take advantage of the "Eyes of the Archmage" spell which warps you back to your hearth point if you try to get into an area you aren't permitted access to yet.

edit: As others have mentioned, this NPC is now ready for business, and offers a few bobbers, a trade item, a pet and a mount as you increase your rep with him.

Commento di Alfa

Fishing up Manaffogato will give you 50 rep towards this faction and is used to purchase items

There's also a quest to get 250 rep: Manaffogato

In order to reach Conjurer Margoss, you need to fish up Emblema di Margoss from Swirling Whorls fishing nodes in the Black Market of the sewers of Dalaran. They are consumed on use, so you will need to fish up another to return.

Commento di Stormreave

So he's a mage that turned to fishing. I imagine the process involved him first trying to pyroblast fish to then capture them. When that failed, he decided to try and conjure massive water elementals to trap fish within them, which half worked because after that the elemental shunned his vicious fish-bullying ways and wandered into the wilderness to live in harmony with them.

After that, feeling the sting of defeat twice, he instead decided to troll the fishing community that ostracised him for his unorthodox fishing approaches, thus he became the ultimate troll to them, requiring a consumable to be fished up before he will then deign to even decide if you're worthy of the trinkets he offers.

Commento di siley

The way to increase rep with him is to click on "I have drowned mana for you" or "I have 10 drowned mana for you." Drowned mana seems to drop fairly easily from fishing so it doesn't seem to be too tough.

Commento di jjanchan

This information is current as of September 8/16 on Live servers.

TIP #1: There are groups in the group-finder that fish together on Margoss' Retreat; this greatly increases the number of Marchio di Aquaos that are fished up, and with enough people you can chain them back-to-back, increasing your rate of Manaffogato acquisition dramatically!

TIP #2: Take advantage of reputation buffs, like WHEE!/Cilindro di Lunacupa while the Darkmoon Faire is active, or similar buffs listed in the guide below during holidays to speed this grind up!

Evocatore Margoss

Evocatore Margoss is a new Fishing-related NPC located on a floating island (Margoss' Retreat) around Dalaran. This island has a pool of water on it from which Manaffogato can be fished up.

As a "Friend" NPC, there is an associated faction and reputation associated with Margoss - Evocatore Margoss (similar to Nat Pagle or the Tillers NPCs).

Getting to Margoss' Retreat

The island on which Evocatore Margoss can be found is just North of Dalaran. Note that this small island isn't shown on the map of Dalaran - it is outside of the bounds of the in-game map (therefore coordinates are not helpful!)

There are a number of ways to get to the island:

Flying
Once flying is unlocked in Legion, this will be an easy way to get to the island.
Emblema di Margoss
Emblema di Margoss is a consumable item that teleports you to Margoss' Retreat. It can be fished up in the Dalaran Underbelly from the Swirling Whorl pools around the Black Market Auction house - in the Underbelly.
These items are consumed when used - so to use this method again you have to fish up another.
Manually Reaching the Island
It is possible to get to the island using unconventional means.
First, go through the gap in the Dalaran wall at , between the Violet Citadel and the Magus Commerce Exchange (you can see it if you follow the grass to the right of the Violet Citadel stairs). You'll see the pet trainer on the ledge below, and in the distance you will see Margoss' Retreat, recognizable by the pool of water in the center. From this ledge you can reach the island through the following means:
- As a Cacciatore di Demoni, you can use Planata.
- As an Engineer, you can use a cloak with Aliante dei Goblin attached.
- Any race/class can use Kit dell'Aliante dei Goblin (crafted by Engineers).
- Any race/class can use Venti di Smeraldo (Toy obtained from the achievement Cucciolo dell'artiglio in Alto Monte).

You can get back to Dalaran by speaking to Evocatore Margoss - he will teleport you back on request.

Obtaining Manaffogato

Manaffogato has a two-fold purpose:

Can be turned in to Evocatore Margoss to obtain reputation with him.

Can be used as a currency for a number of items he sells.

Note that any Manaffogato spent on items from Evocatore Margoss will not grant any reputation. Conversely, any Manaffogato turned in for reputation is consumed and cannot be used to buy merchandise.

Manaffogato can ONLY be fished up from the pool on Margoss' Retreat.

Notes

A Fishing skill of 1 is sufficient to catch Manaffogato.
Fishing skill does not appear to appreciably affect Manaffogato catch rate (see below).
You can catch up to 2 Manaffogato per cast.
Other than Manaffogato, only trash fish are caught on this island (Sgombro d'Argento and Grosso Pesce Rosso da Fontana).
Manaffogato can be turned in 1 at a time for 50 reputation or 10 at a time for 500 reputation.
Manaffogato is Unique (100) - as such you want to turn-in or spend it when you reach that mark.
Level 110 is NOT required to fish up Manaffogato. Testing with level 100+ characters has been successful; it is unknown whether even lower level characters can do so.

Marchio di Aquaos

Marchio di Aquaos is an item you can rarely fish up on Margoss' Retreat (roughly 1 in every 100 casts). Using it will summon Aquaos lo Scatenato, an Elemental that will attack you, that you must kill.

Aquaos lo Scatenato scales in health and level (like all Legion mobs). It is not difficult to kill him.
Aquaos drops no loot, but killing him infuses the pool on the island with mana, increasing the catch rate of Manaffogato to 100% while it is active for a short time! This state is indicated by blue mana motes rising from the surface of the water.
This "mana infusion" state lasts 2-3 minutes from testing.
Marchio di Aquaos is Unique - as such, it is advisable to use it as soon as you catch one, to avoid not being able to loot any more you may catch. Of course, if the buff is still up on the pool from a previous kill, wait until it has expired before using another - prematurely using one DOES NOT extend the buff!
While the buff is up, not only is Manaffogato catch rate 100%, but you will somtimes catch various Legion (non-trash) fish, such as Razza della Tempesta and Salmone di Alto Monte.

Fishing Tests

LOW FISHING SKILL: Fished from a skill of 19 to 119 (Total 100 casts)

Total yield: 28 Manaffogato

6 casts yielded 1 Manaffogato
11 casts yielded 2 Manaffogato
Overall 17 casts yielded some Manaffogato (17%)

HIGH FISHING SKILL: Fished at a skill of 904, with some Fishing gear and lure (Total 100 casts)

Total yield: 27 Manaffogato

9 casts yielded 1 Manaffogato
9 casts yielded 2 Manaffogato
1 cast yielded a Marchio di Aquaos
Overall 18 casts yielded some Manaffogato (18%)

VERY HIGH FISHING SKILL: Fished from a skill of 1115 to 1152, with best possible Fishing gear and lure (Total 200 casts)

Total yield: 51 Manaffogato

15 casts yielded 1 Manaffogato
18 casts yielded 2 Manaffogato
3 casts yielded a Marchio di Aquaos
Overall 39 casts yielded some Manaffogato (19.5%)

Overall this is a fairly low sample size; however, based on the information, it appears that Fishing skill has little to no effect on Manaffogato catch rate. Further testing is needed to see if maxed fishing will yield different results.

Reputation with Evocatore Margoss

Reputation with Evocatore Margoss will allow you to purchase the various items he has for sale - including a pet and a mount!

There is a one-time quest (Manaffogato) that you can complete by fishing up and turning in 1 Manaffogato for 250 reputation. Thereafter, the only way to obtain further reputation is to turn in Manaffogato for 50 reputation per mana.

There are 5 levels of reputation before Best Friend, which is the maximum reputation. Each of these levels has 8400 reputation.

To improve the rate of reputation gain, keep in mind the following buffs (note that some of the following buffs stack):

Visione Tetra/Coscienza Pulita, available during the Hallow's End Holiday Event
Spirito della Condivisione, available during the Pilgrim's Bounty Holiday Event
Diplomazia, one of the human racial abilities
Saggezza del Consiglio, available to Frost Mages with Gelonero from various NPCs in Dalaran

Below is a summary of the levels of reputation with Evocatore Margoss:

Reputation Level	Reputation Amount	Manaffogato Required to Reach Next Level	Total Manaffogato Required	Total Manaffogato Required (with 10% buff)*
Stranger	0-8400	163**	163	148
Pal	8401-16800	168	331	301
Buddy	16801-25200	168	499	454
Friend	25201-33600	168	667	606
Good Friend	33601-41999	168	835	759
Best Friend	42000	-	835	759

*Each level of reputation requires just over 152 Manaffogato with a single 10% buff. Stacking buffs will further the effectiveness.
**This level requires fewer mana turn-ins due to the one-time quest.

Spending Manaffogato

Evocatore Margoss sells a number of items for Manaffogato, as below:

Item	Reputation Required	Manaffogato Cost	Description
Esca Arcana	-	1	Consumed on use. Increases your chance to catch bait in the Broken Isles by 100% for 10 min. These baits are used to fish up Rare fish for the achievement Squadra Jinyu in azione!.

Galleggiante Anatroccolo X 5	Friend	25	Consumed on use. Replace your fishing bobber with a squeaky duck for 30 min.

Commento di Mydge

~~Oddly, the reputation bar lives under 'Classic'.~~
This has now been fixed. Margoss is in the legion as expected.

Commento di Wastrel

If you get the item Venti di Smeraldo from the achievement Cucciolo dell'artiglio you'll be able to get to the island no problem. (Just remember to hit your action button so you don't splat on the ground)

Commento di Rhinomcd

You can use the following macros to select the sell mana options from Evocatore Margoss

Turn in 1 Mana:
/script SelectGossipOption(4, true)

Turn in 10 Mana:
/script SelectGossipOption(5, true)

Commento di koochulu

With the release of Legion and people concerned with rep rewards, Darkmoon Faire opening shortly after release will make some rep grinds easier. Here's to hoping that the DMF rep buff also works with Conjurer Margoss. Don't forget to use the carousel and the hats!

Commento di Ithilos

For druids with moonkin form trying to get to the island just use your Flap Ability: Tomo Selvaggio del Battito d'Ali jumping off from the Battle Pet area in Dalaran. You'll land with plenty of time to spare and won't have the issues that you get from zoning if you try to use Aquilone dei Corno Celeste di Piume di Grifalco.

Commento di Nelinde

With only the human rep racial, it took me 784 Drowned Mana to cap out Best Friends with Margoss from Strangers. That includes the 1 I turned in for the initial quest.

Commento di SFFCorgi

I find I can't even talk to him without him grabbing all my Drowned Mana - is this my addons or does everybody find this so?

Commento di likwidd

Here's a macro to count how many more drowned mana you need to turn in. Note, it does not count any in your bags until turned in.

/run r={GetFactionInfoByID(1975)} print(format("%s:\124r %s / %s",r,(r-r),(r-r))) if r~=43000 then print("Next tier: "..(r-r)) end print("Left to Exalted: "..(42999-r)) print("Drowned Mana: "..round((42999-r)/50))

Commento di Asthmabites

YES! I finally figured out how to get to this Island on my Priest using levitate. Using a Goblin Glider works well if you don't have this ability as well.
Go to the pet battle area
Mount and line up to pretty much run over the nekkid tamer (shameless)
Run, jump at the edge, hit levitate and glide over to the Island.
Thank you jjanchan for the helpful guide to complete the quest & reputation!

Commento di Pinkushitsu

Took me about 5 hours to get from Stranger to Best Friend and get both the mount and the pet. If anyone who want to do this on a single day wants to know how long it takes.

Commento di dhrake

Just a heads up, you can't use the Rocfeather Skyhorn Kite to get to Conjurer Margoss. I think it is because you briefly cross into The Great Sea (and the kite only works in Broken Isles). I may be slow but took me several attempts to realize it. You can always use the Goblin Glider Kit to go across though

Commento di Bellicose1

When you go to his island, sometimes his apprentice, Blythe, will whisper you, 'Take me with you. Please!' I can't interact with it and Margoss himself currently has no conversation options related to it for me.

Commento di evitarani

I was able to get across as a rogue using spring to jump and then grappling hook

Commento di meluksetich

Combined a couple of these scripts I've seen to do this:

/run local _, fR, fM, fN, _, _, _, fT, nT = GetFriendshipReputation(1975) print("Current rep "..fN..": "..fR.."/"..fM) print("Next Level: "..nT-fR) print(("Best Friend: %d mana"):format((fM-fR)/50)) print(("10%s Rep Buff: %d mana"):format("%",(fM-fR)/55))

Looks like this:
Current rep Conjurer Margoss: 30750/42999
Next Level: 33600
Best Friend: 244 mana
10% Rep Buff: 222 mana

**I added RiokaR's suggestion from comments. Next Level now shows the remaining points to next level.

Commento di Gnorma

I love the chubby raccoon that dives into the pond and swims around. It would be awesome if he occasionally grabbed a fish--maybe one of the ones you catch!

Commento di xpeyur

Finally got everything I wanted from this guy!
Got the Briney shark (mount), the Sting Ray Pup (pet), and the crate of murloc heads (toy).
Total of 1085 Drowned mana.
Fished:
1132 Silver mackerel
354 Big Fountain Goldfish
26 Black Barracuda
23 Stormray
20 Mossgill Perch
18 Runescale Koi
15 Highmountain Salmon
about 16 of those coins that invoke the elemntal.
Total of 1616 fish, about the same amount of casts (bkoz some get frozen, offline, wotever).
Took two days of constant fishing, with or without anyone else around.
Statistically, about 1:1 Silver Mackerel to Drowned Mana.
Good luck.

Commento di bergerfry

As I have been fishing this island for a while now I notice that the reputation costs are the same for each level.
8500 gets you through each one. I'm getting 550 points per 10 drowned mana. It is taking a while but I'm almost done.

Commento di Unbeweaveable

Went from zero rep all the way to best friend (and bought the mount) yesterday in one shot. Took about five hours of fishing without breaks in a full raid group so the elemental buff was on the water nearly 100% of the time. Seriously don't do this by yourself unless you want it to take at least twice as long. Happy grinding.

Commento di howlingmist

As of 15/1/17, using Zattera da Pesca dei Lancialenza while on the small lake grants water walking instead of the raft showing up. Not sure if this is working as intended. The buff still shows as Anglers Fishing Raft though.

Commento di Celestri

Forgive me if this is old news, but I finally got this guy to best friend, and only after buying the Pesce di Fondale Brinafonda did I realize that it requires Best Friend with him. Then I looked, and the two toys and the two pets also require some rep with him. SO, with that said, if you are planning on grinding this guy for toys/pets/mounts to share, be prepared to grind at least a little bit on your alts.

*grumble*

Commento di ModishVision

To obtain and use the Pesce di Fondale Brinafonda mount you will need to reach best-friends with Evocatore Margoss by fishing up some Manaffogato and turning them in for 50 reputation per*
*That is the base rep without any buffs Stranger->Pal->Buddy->Friend->Good Friend->Best Friend

He is located on a floating island just north of Dalaran in which is not on the tradiontal map. You can use Kit dell'Aliante dei Goblin or Emblema di Margoss to reach the island, unless you have flying.

This will take anywhere from 3hours to 12hours+ depending on fishing drop rate of Manaffogato and if you take no breaks.
Marchio di Aquaos is important as you throw it in and Aquaos lo Scatenato will be summoned. Once he is killed there will be a 2minute buff for the area increasing the fishing drop rate of the Manaffogato about 1-2 per cast at that point. That is why its crucial to find a party and immediately toss in Marchio di Aquaos once you have it to gather resources faster.

Once you reach Best-friends with Evocatore Margoss you will then need to exchange 100x Manaffogato for Pesce di Fondale Brinafonda.
He also has other stuff like a pet you can buy with Manaffogato.

Any questions or stuck on anything check out the video below
Best of luck have fun and go fishing.

1. Basic information

Your fishing skill to catch Manaffogato can be 1-800.
Catch rate with out boost is very low. With Boost is 100% 1-2 on each catch.
During fishing you have a chance to get Marchio di Aquaos - is a boost ( throw it in to the water that will summon Aquaos the Unleashed Kill him and get boost).
Maximum stack of Manaffogato in your bag is 100 you will not catch more, you need to spend them for items or reputation to catch more.
You don't need to have 110 lvl to start
You can increase your reputation getting using buffs for it

2. How to get to island - is 4 ways to get there:

A - Use Emblema di Margoss You can fished up it in The Underbelly Next to The Widow.
B - Fly using Mount if you have unlocked flying in Legion ( You need to have done achi : Broken Isles Pathfinder, Part Two).
C - Use class skill to jump on it like i use Levitate on my priest.
D - You can be Summoned by Warlock.

3. Whey of Fishing:

A - Raid group - Best way to get quick to finish. Why ? more people more chance to get Marchio di Aquaos
B - Solo - slow and boring way go with this when you have no others way to waste your time

4. Reputation table with NPC Conjurer Margoss.
Manaffogato finish this Quest to get 250 reputation.
Manaffogato x1 = 50 reputation with out any buff.

Commento di Kiingy

I wrote a small WeakAura for the Broken Shore fishing factions.

Whenever you catch one of the rep/currency items it'll display a small popup for 4 seconds showing your current count (plus any in bank). It's set to only show once you have 80+ and a sound alert will play once you have 96+.
It'll also alert you with a sound and display a persistent clickable button when you catch one of the items that spawns the mini-boss. This will only show while you have a fishing rod equipped.

All sounds can be changed or disabled and thresholds for when to start showing can also be changed (or set it always show).
The aura itself will only load on characters that have learned the Fishing ability.

Since the WeakAura import string is quite long I've posted it below on pastebin.

All updates to the aura are also noted in the above pastebin link.

Commento di DeadLeviathn

Warriors can reach the island without a glider by jumping off the edge closest to it with a mount and using heroic leap. It has a small window of time but it was fairly easy to pull off.

Commento di Lickmycritt

So, if you came here looking for answers on "How much Drowned Mana do I need per friendship level?", like I did, and can't find a clear answer, I rounded up the reputation from 8,400 (it's a stupid number anyway) to 8,500.

8,500/500 = 17 Turn-ins of 10.
17*10 = 170. You will need just under 170 Drowned Mana (keep in mind that there is a cap of 100 that you can have on you at one time) PER FRIENDSHIP LEVEL.

Happy fishing!

Commento di m4DD0gg

Been nerfed big time on the drowned mana spawn rate

Commento di Jhazat

These are my results after around 5 hours of fishing if anyone was interested

Commento di schnizol

As a frost mage, I could get 5 or 15% bonus to rep. 5% on non-DMF weeks and 15% on DMF weeks, but you need to fish with ebonchill equipped and after etting a buff from a memory of Tirisfal (and of course, the DMF buff)

Commento di maxpapa

FYI, you can leave the fishing raid and still fish from the buff pool as others toss in marks. There is no need to start additional raid groups. The more people the merrier!

Commento di snahra

FYI, the 4/20/20 Impressive Influence buff for Legion and BFA reps does not affect this turn in. I would assume the same for Keeper Raynae. I guess because it's a "frendship" and not a true faction, it wasn't included. Not sure why I'm surprised, but disappointed all the same.

Commento di Agentx49

I can not for the life of me find him the pool dont spawn in the sewers and the island just isnt there

Commento di Mykee

Even though it seems like a reputation faction, you're building friendship with him. This means reaching "best friend" status won't count towards the reputation achievements like Osannato da 100 fazioni

Commento di jsnlxndrlv

Is this bugged for anybody else since the Dragonflight pre-patch? Every time I use a Mark of Aquaos and kill the elemental, there's no buff to the fishing pond. I thought maybe I was killing them too fast, but even if I switch to autoattacks, nothing happens after it dies.

EDIT: After further testing, I can confirm that the buff IS occurring, even though the visual effect doesn't happen. However, about 75% of the time, my waterlogged mana catches aren't happening. If I'm catching regular fish, they go into my inventory just fine, but if it would have been mana, instead the fishing activity cancels without the loot window ever opening. I can tell because it doesn't happen often when I'm fishing at the pond normally, but the frequency of these failed fishing instances increase sharply for a few minutes after killing the elemental.

Commento di disadventurer

Rep here doesn't seem to be affected by Legion Timewalking.
