    I really try hard not to fish glacier. My time will come soon tho my list is getting short for gug/lik buyers. There's a small list for ss fish but at the going rate of 600k I might pass on that.

    Also have a few other things iv been fishing but its much harder to find buyers without driving the price down.
    Wise Odiner's are now selling matsya for less than 300k each, while paying 50k a stack of more for meatballs. Brilliant!

    Pretty soon the meatballs will cost them more than they get from the matsya.... why are people soooooo stupid? And why must they ruin it for the rest of us?

    Also, re:buying meatballs, even if you pay like 40-50k for a stack, you're pretty much getting that back just from turning in cheraxes. Not that I buy them for 40-50k, but it doesn't seem like a terrible deal as some people make it out to be.

    You would have to go 1/1 on meatballs almost to break even on CC. Id really say on average its 3~4 max per day. thats 1.2mil at 300k at best. You really think thats worth all that work lol?

    Edit: Picture. Also, I was too high on all my fishing characters to try out Crescent Fish, but I did this on Tavnazian Goby. On Goby you still caught some of them. I'm not sure if Crescent Fish are all too small catches and therefore infinite skill up opportunities.

    do you need lu shang's for this?

    Just the opposite - you want a rod that will give you a "too small to catch" message. Great Blue is outdated, but there's still good info on it:
    http://www.great-blue.jp/?fid=045&lng=en

    I did not do Crescent Fish because my mule was already in the 70s when this was brought up. Tavnazian Goby works to 75. I think I did Mithran Rod w/ Minnows on them. I have a post a few pages back where I think I talked about it.

    Personally, I would never consider the too small option for 24 hour a day fishing skill ups. The risk-reward ratio does not seem worth it to me. You will only arrive at level 78 quicker still waiting on GPs to get serpent rumors while adding the risk of possible being banned or somehow flagged. For anyone that has skilled in Nashmau you know without ring you're looking at 2-3 levels per RL day on average, double that with ring. Post 60 it will be a bit slower, but it is much faster than most make it out to be.

    I agree it's dumb, but people who don't care will do it regardless. It was a really nice trick for getting to 78 faster when my mule got his Ebisu items earlier than I thought he would. The first time I tried Goby, I spent an evening (6ish hours? Maybe a couple hours before JP midnight the next AM) and went 68.x->71.9 in 298 "catches" (only 113 actual fish caught). I could have gotten pretty close to 75 if I hadn't gone to bed and maybe not used fishing gear in hopes of actually catching less fish. The 75->78 stretch felt like it took forever in comparison.

    You're breaking even on TRADING CHERAXES TO ZALDON, you're still making a profit from selling Matsya. Never said anything about selling them for 300k, because that's just downright retarded. All I'm saying is that paying 40-50k per stack of meatballs isn't as terrible as some of you make it out to be.

    Do you really use 6 stacks of meatballs a day? Also, you forgot to subtract the money you get back from cheraxes in your calculation there. Again, I didn't say ANYTHING about the retards selling it for 300k.

    You can't ignore the final step in the process though, they are all interwoven. I would bitch much less if matsya sold for 500k, but nevertheless, it's my choice to either stay or leave the server.

    As for people bumrushing with too small so they can trade for shawl, once again I guess it's upto you whether the chance of being banned to get start trading shawl fish 5-7 days faster is worth it.
