    I usually found about 100 bait was good for a day of fishing Matsya. I never held mobs myself but I would say half the time I went fishing for them someone was there with Ochain PLD holding them, so lucky I guess for that.

    As far as mooching its only a must if you a. don't use albatross ring or b. don't use a bot

    Do people still frown on fish boting ? Anyone here do it ? (Curious)

    Within the forum, my impression is that a majority of people bot. Very rarely is it admitted in a straight-forward manner, but based on certain shared advice, experiences, and expectations for fishing practices and yields, one can strongly suspect. Not that I "label" people here as a botter or non-botter. I just read certain accounts, my suspicion may be raised, and then I try to move on and forget about it. It still kind of irks me, of course.

    As for peoples' thoughts on botting, the most that can be said is that non-botters frown on it, and botters don't. Kind of an obvious distinction, but that's what discussion of the subject will nearly always amount to. There are pros and cons thrown about by both parties, but it's very unlikely this distinction is going to be redefined any time soon.

    And, as I always like to include for the record when the topic arises: I don't bot. Never have, never will.

    Re: Fishing

    Rule 1 do not cheat on something your not willing to lose.

    Way back when I was younger 13 lol . Id think nothing of bots , however after 10 years of having this account id never think about doing it again. Also could be I'm 23 now and cheating gets me crazy angry. After my second degree and I see myself telling people to shut up during tests when the teacher leaves the room.

    I still user windower and I won't give that up. For the most part I think everyone feels the same way about current day fish bots; do it at your own risk, you are not harming anyone really.

    Edit: sp

    Oh! "Shut up," not "shot up." I thought you were telling people to "shoot up" (i.e. heroin) during exams.

    I've been on both sides of the isle. I've spent hours/days/years fishing normally, and also botting. My opinion is that it's none of my own business whether people bot or not-- it's not my account or my concern to worry about what the next guy is doing when they fish. Same thing goes for free hacking and other 3rd Party cheats/exploits/windower plugins.

    To each their own.

    The monsters level up every few minutes (10?) or so that they are held so they will eventually kill your pet I'd imagine. When I hold them on WHM they get to the point where they will knock out my stoneskin nearly as soon as phalanx wears by the hour mark or so.

    Yeah without phalanx you gunna die fast after they are out for awhile. Even just phalanx protect and pdt/regen set isn't enough

    This is how I fish matsya. Use a ladybug pet for maximum effect.

    Averages out just fine, you'll have streaks on anything, doesn't mean anything.
