Let's Talk Fishing!
Cerberus.Anjisnu said: » i tried with one of the alchemy rods since i could repair those with 1 light crystal as opposed to 50 but it turned out like 28 broken rods per lik so i leveled ww and camped the torque/gp hands That is not a very good rate at all. And considering I have a very high chance of losing the Halcyon Rod, I guess this won't work out. Thanks for the answer. Bahamut.Itze said: » Oh..  Congrats btw Fishing causes my char to freeze now. Have to warp II with my alt to move.

Noticing very strange results in Oldtown (in my experience). Just gone 15 casts with 'You didn't catch anything', then I hook and catch a Pisces, then gone 7 without a bite.

Right after an update it takes a while for fishing bites to pick up, at least in some areas. Been that way as long as I remember. In a couple hours everything will be normal.

This is the first time I've fished after an update in ages. Any1 is crashing when a fish bites after update? it is keeping doin it for me...
Yes, same here. With just normal POL I cast the line and whenever a fish bites the game crashes... yayy.
I'm expecting an update tomorrow or tonight. Just went 1/25 on opal silk! Now just for the shoot 0/305 :(

I noticed a significant up in catch rate on new moon's and full moon...Off 100 pugils i'd catch somewhere between 10-16 with mega-moglification. To be honest, i caught more not having to super tank the 5 nm's. i fish with every 50 pugils my fishing mule has 108 smock and stall and rings my best so far is 8 matsya for 50 pugils

I get about 8-10 matsya with 60ish pugils. 98 fishing atm

Just posting some numbers :D Got my Opal silk today and I got my Saber shoot a week and a half ago.
1/159 Saber Shoot 1/509 Opal Silk Not sure if this has been answered, but if I wear fishing gear and it puts my fishing skill above the cap for the fish I'm trying to skill up on, will that slow down the skill ups?
Ragnarok.Zothane said: » Not sure if this has been answered, but if I wear fishing gear and it puts my fishing skill above the cap for the fish I'm trying to skill up on, will that slow down the skill ups? Not sure about this. I know you can still skill up to the fishes' level even if the skill+ gear puts you over cap. (I.E. said fish is 40 cap, and your skill is 38, you get +4 with regular gear you can still get skill ups till 40). As far as skill gain rate I would think it wouldn't have an effect, unless you had the skill up ring. Personally, I have yet to get a skill up ring. But from just observations i noticed that when you reach around the x6/x7 area, skill ups start to slow down (don't know what they are with a ring). Once you get passed x0 (in my case 90) Skill ups start to come faster. It took me almost 3 days to go from 89 to 90 (Getting .1 mostly, then a couple of .2, within 150+ fish), but once i hit 90 i got .7 within 40 fish (Armored Pisces) I took my fishing up to 88 from 15 in Nashmau, and noticed this to be a common trend, a ton of skill ups within the x0-x6, and afterwards its slow as molasses. I also did this with no skill up ring so results may vary if you are using a skill up ring. Ragnarok.Evihime said: » Any1 is crashing when a fish bites after update? it is keeping doin it for me... It's not the game. Is there some trick to targeting cone calamary?
I seem to hook a lot of random crap in Bibiki Bay using sliced cod as bait even though Great Blue says everything besides Cone Clamary should be rarely hooking the line. Not using minnows because i'm at 21 fishing and I still alternate between catching Tiger Cod/Herring for skillups still, then slice the cod into bait to go after calamary. Maybe my lower skill with support is hurting the biterate even though they are easy to land once I get a bit from one?

At 21 skill though I would recommend going to North-West Qufim cliff for skill ups. With a minnow there you'll catch a lot of Bluetail and Cone Calamary. Gigant Squids bite too so if you don't have a Lu, cancel the !!! bites. anyone know a good way to up the rate i catch bugbear/moblin masks people using a lot of dirty tricks to get minnows/glass fiber
