With the release of the new and highly anticipated JRPG Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes, players are quickly realizing that the name is not a joke. There are over a hundred recruitable characters that you can meet in the world, and in this guide, we will be showing you how to add Huang, the humble fisherman, to your ranks.
How to Recruit Huang
You first meet Huang very early on in the game, but you actually won’t be able to have him join you just yet. If you didn’t interact with him back in the starting area, you’ll meet him again later, so don’t worry if you missed him.

First, you will need to reach the city of Hishahn. This is a location that you will eventually visit throughout the main story, and it will take you a few hours to actually get there in your playthrough.
Upon entering the city of Hishahn, just head all the way over to the east and you will eventually see Huang along the way staring off into the water below.
Speak with him and finish the conversation to receive a bamboo fishing rod if you haven’t already done so early in the game. This will unlock the fishing activity,
Searching for the Wheel-Eye Bream
Before Huang can join your ranks, he will ask you for a special type of fish called the Wheel-Eye Bream. This is a rare type of fish that can be found near the Seaside Cavern in Euchrisse. Check the map image below to see where you can find it.
From here, all you need to do is keep fishing in this spot until you get the Wheel-Eye Bream, which has a red and gray-ish color scheme. They are fairly uncommon, so you might have to stay here for a while if you’re unlucky.
Recruiting Huang and the Benefits
With the Wheel-Eye Bream on hand, all you have to do now is return to Huang and tell him that he has a place in your crew. After that, he will join your party and unlock a few benefits along with him.
His addition to the party will allow you to construct a fishing spot in your headquarters. This action will cost you 800 Headquarters Funds and 40 pelts.
This will open up all sorts of features, including the ability to gather fish (obviously) that you can use for various dishes. This can come in handy for players who like cooking all sorts of recipes.
And that is everything you need to know when it comes to recruiting Huang in the game, who is just one of many characters that you’ll meet. While you’re here, you may want to read our article showing you how to recruit Galdorf in Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes as well!
