Fishing

Update: 0/363 on Liks

Wouldn't be bad if I can fix my own Lu Shang. Plus, there's barely any Ebisu fish seller on Fairy. =(

Thanks, you were right. A lurking lsmate of mine saw this and posted a pic on our ls forums of him skilling up from a loss due to skill.

So... does this count towards your 200? Or would it be possible to go past the 200 mark by continually losing your catch by hitting enter a bit too early and skill up? I know some people might be like I've capped out before and wanted to do more for skill >_>

sadly no

Well, I caught my first matsya today, was nice enough to come easily, got him very first catch.

Damn he was hard though, like a gugra with a lot more hp. Using alby ring took me all the way down to the last second to get him in

so if there are any tests and whatnot you guys want me to do with it, I'm gonna attempt to synth one with each crystal first. Just post here and I'll do random stuff with it. nothing works, quick 25K cha ching

If you don't mind try turning one into Zaldon

Man I'd love this just so a bunch of people fished up gugs then sold all the light ones so I can turn them in for ebisu!

edit: I got a 2178 ryugu titan off the AH, I'm hoping that's good enough to place in the top 20

hate

edit: Got an 1875 now.. getting there, but still not very confident

I think they already disproved this on the matsya page on titanictus but I'll give it a shot.

I think SE should add a second zaldon character to nashmau, porrogo or something, that cuts open ToAU fish.

I'd like to see maybe some khroma ores or something, items like that.

Otherwise there's just too many fish in the game that have no use...

Good example is poor Mola Mola. What is up with that thing?

I would imagine like so many of the other fish SE gave us, they're ONLY good to sell to NPC.

We really should find a list of fish that have NO use at all. why cant i cook them? gugs ~_~ come on i could feed a family with one for a month

[Ruuz]

You could do more than that Im sure. I forget how many months whales would feed native tribes, but iirc it was a while. I would love to see oil be a major part of alchemy, obtainable via lightning crystal + whale. Not sure exactly what it would be used for. It's not like we use lamps/heat for anything in FF. Crystal power wut

Lightning Crystal + Whale = RELIC WEAPON? WTF?!?!

I support this! If we could fish up relics /spooge

Yeah, now if that was the only source of it, and PUP was like OMFG MUST HAVE!

Yup, the fish are still worthless.

[urat]

What about things like khroma ore, or other expensive mats?

[shaddix]

wooooooohoooooooo i fished up a dil at level 20 @13fps

Is it normal to get five or more "You didn't catch anything." messages in a row in Nashmau? Sometimes I get a bunch of bites in a row, and then other times it seems like I'm getting about 2 fish out of every 10 casts. Is there some other anti-bot thing causing this that I need to avoid somehow? And no, it's not fatigue, I definitely haven't caught 200 fish today.

Alrighty, i have a question that might need some confirmation. My apologies if this was answered a few pages ago because i remember it was brought up.

I'm currently fishing for a lu for a mule character using little worms at Knightswell. I think its already known, but eventually, after meeting some requirement your bite rate becomes 100% on moat carps(no items, 'didn't catch anythings' or monsters, period).

I was wondering if that's a hidden effect of the testimonial or a fishing skill thing. I can confirm it works on non-ebisu rods (hume is faster depletion than ebisu for carps).

So can any of you newer fishers out there or mid-level fishers with testomonials confirm that it is a testimonial effect or a skill effect? it would satisfy my curiosity.

Another question/observation. I remember precisely being fatigued at 200 fish when going for my lu shang's, yet recently i've been able to get between 209 and 220 before fatiguing. Has anyone else noticed this, or was i wrong all along?

Thanks in advance

I've heard rumors that there is a "pool" of fish in zones that can be exhausted. I.E. if other fisherman have pulled up X amount of fish, the bite rate for everyone is GREATLY reduced (to prevent .... fuck, I don't know).

Anyone confirm?

It's 200~

Most days I'll cap at 200, but occasionally it'll be a little under and occasionally a little over. I think the least I've gotten is 192 and the most was 216.
