Completed Relic/Ebisu Rod List - Also, Indomitable Spirit quest bitching

Yeah, when I do sardines I use a gear mule with level 10 fishing. You hit cap super fast... like 4-6 hours for 400-450 sardines. Some friends target only sardine x3 catches but that will take 3 times as long for 600 fish. Not worth it imo. If I need more sardines I just swap to another gear mule.

My sardine rate isn't nearly that high. What rod/bait/zone are you using? '~'

[Michelob]

Level 10 fishing (makes a large difference), hume rod I think (whatever the one designed for small fish is), sabiki rig. I usually just do lower jeuno since I'm lazy but port windurst has given me faster rates. If I do sardines on a 122 skill ebisu char my rate is absolute garbage in lower jeuno... like 200 in 10 or 12 hours. Being on lower skill affects which fish bite more frequently.

[Dotsudoku]

That.. should have been a lot more obvious.

Thanks

I'll prolly take 12~ stacks aiming for 100 haks liek Michelob says. And I use Halcyon+Sabiki I think. I'd previously used a wooden one, Hume maybe? But it can break so swapped to Halcyon. Usually fish Port Windy or Valk dunes (near maw), dont wanna fish in PJ if I can help it, zone's full enough.

I've broken a Hume catching sardines in Port Bastok only once over at least a couple thousand, and it only happened because I hooked some mystery large fish (which I have never hooked again) and didn't think reeling it in would be a bad idea somehow.

If it has to do with fishing, it's going to end up being about Haks.

[noodles355]

Maybe it wasn't a Hume rod, either way I broke some kind of rod on them in... Port Windy I think? So after that I just avoided all the "Might break" rods on otherwiki's sardine page.

Maybe not. The ideas they were throwing around for fishing adjustment might make other fish worthwhile again

[Michelob]

I've never broken a hume rod fishing them on my level 10 mules but I do keep a second rod/lure handy since it said breaks are possible.

Hello all,

Thought I should join you, because after reading this post now and years ago when I was playing back in 2009, I came back recently without even knowing about the expansion lol (yeah, living in a cave) and thought... should i try to get that awesome rod that i didn't even started in 2009? So a month ago I decided to go for it.

If there is someone from Ragnarok server here that would like to offer me his/her services to fish liks for me, then tell me.
I am only buying fish because instead of WW i have Cooking 101. I tried long time ago to fish Liks and I think I got just two or three after many line breaks and line snaps. I decided that making money fishing other stuff and spending that money on fish was more productive ;_;

I will let you know about my progress Although my numbers are still ok, wish me luck!

[Chocolatmisu]

I have turned in some more, but no luck, 0/250 at the moment! I have spent 8.851.000 more or less in total.

Mostly because sustaining bait for the ebisu is harder than making another ebisu

[Zeroth]

Could somoene please explain to me how minnows and sinking minnows have a different synth level when sinking are just the HQ of minnow?
I'm just trying to find out what level alch/gold have be in order to be be T3+ on them.

Edit: Sorry I meant to post this in the fishing thread
Disregard
