Fishing

[Karah]

Well, maybe random is just random. 100 more Marlins caught, lowest is only an 82/420, which actually isn't smaller for our contest since it's weight.

Maybe the puffin ring counts for literal size or it doesn't i don't know, but I can say this much, I'm sick and fucking tired of fishing a fish below my cap for shit money and no use.

back to cherax, piss on the ring I'll still hit 110.

!! did some Abaia fishing since the ranking pissed me off... 180 sliced carp 12 catches 3 breaks, NOTHING int he fish. Second set 180 carp 12 catches again 10 breaks, Plumb boots in the second fish! hurray! useless but hurray!

What GP items should I get after Rumors? Emblem > Apron > Waders?

[Corkadile]

That's what I've been doing. I might prioritize apron over emblem because it's likely more useful, but emblem is just so damn cheap...

What npc gives the most for haks? Wiki reports 10,542 as max price but I can't find it anywhere

[Corkadile]

You might just need more fame, that's what changes the prices.

[Guitarman]

Sandoria gives the most per hak at max fame, no idea why only that city does. My main character is max fame everywhere and get 10,516 per at bastok, bastok being his home city, and mule gets 10,542 per fish in sandy, sandy being her home nation. It's weird.

The tenshodo shop gives the max NPC value for all items, Ghebi and it's still in jueno, where presumably most home points are already, so it's convenient. Assuming you have at least high enough fame to obtain Utsusemi: ichi.

[Guitarman]

True. I keep forgetting that point. I just use my moogle cap to send both toons to their respective towns so I forget that.

[Byrthnoth]

You get +2% NPC price for having capped fame. Apparently you're only capped on Sandy fame?

[Guitarman]

Nah I'm certain I'm capped bastok fame. I do remember others talking about this issue before.

[buddyslack]

A few year back when weskits were profitable i could only get 10k from npcs when everyone else was getting 11k despite having max fame, that extra 1k would have been useful especially when your npcing 100+

[Egonn]

Alright I'm almost 0/300 on the cape now. Could anyone help me out by posting SS's of when they got thier cape? I know trolololol moon phase, day, time don't matter yata yata yata. But could anyone humor me with a couple SS's? I'd post screenshots of my handin failures but I have to have ten posts first I guess.

[dasva]

I'll have to look thru mine but honestly I was expecting one like yours before now. I mean with all the 1/1 or getting in less than 20s when the droprate is almost certainly less than 5% probably closer to 2% I think the only reason we haven't seen such a bad outlier so far is lack of persistance lol

[Buffy]

What are the current hypothesis about the 50k, 150k, and 200k GP items for fishing? I'm trying to decide if I should bother trying for any of them, or switch to smithing on my main.

[dasva]

Well from the longish parse I did I saw a small difference between a character with the 150k, 200k and waders with everything else being the same using sinkers on hak's... I put it in here a bit back if you want to look at it. Not sure I'd say it's worth it though but it aint nothing

[Kamil]

What's the lowest level I can fish Gugs/Liks at? Also, Sinking or normal Minnows for Liks?

[Guitarman]

minnows for liks, I wouldn't try until the 80's for lik, 90s for gug.

[cdgreg]

I originally did Lik @ 78 with Albatross, Penguin ring, and Ebisu.

[Corkadile]

People should stop saying you don't need Mooching for Matsya, while it's technically true at 110+9 skill I can almost never get them all the way down even on a perfect reel. (And when I do my line breaks every time, but that's just my luck.)

[dasva]

I get them down all the time without. It's close but I do it every time. And if you are still having trouble using any of the rings lol. Also as far as I can tell line breaks have nothing to do with mooching.
