Every time you fail to open a casket by a 50/50 chance, take 1 shot.
Every time you fail to open a casket that you had to guess within 10 digits, take 2 shots.
Every time you fail to open a casket because the hints were so obscure that you didn't stand a snowballs chance in hell to even get within 30 digits of the correct answer, take 3 shots.

I love this. Time to chill the bourbon and go to Shakhrami.

Note to self: Buy a bottle of aspirin asap.
Forget a bottle of aspirin, get an EMT squad on standby.
When the Fisher's Torque was 1st released, I spent a full week and a half every evening after work (~7 hours per night) and that entire weekend doing GOV in Outer Horutoto Ruins. I never left the zone to keep my prowress from resetting.
Opened countless brown chests (easily in the hundreds).
Never Saw the Torque. /cry
How have others done trying for the Fisher's Torque?
I'm exactly where you are.
Four times I spent 7 days straight in that zone refusing to leave so I wouldn't loose prowess. I hate chests.
A low drop rate I can deal with. When you finally get it you get it unless someone is dumb and doesn't past whatever else is in the treasure pool and it falls to the floor.
With chests, you might get it. You might get it just once, or 25 times. You don't know what you have and when you fail on a chest you can't help but to think, "I bet that was the torque I just lost...".
I hate them. I'd rather deal with a 0.1% drop rate than deal with caskets. I'm serious, I'll take 0.1% drop rate any day over caskets.
I got sooo lucky with mine. Finally went in to do it, got page and 3rd kill of page brown chest drops. I think it cant be this easy. Then bam easy combo which leads me to think crap inside but was torque.
It's a flood of opal silks! I'll post a screenshot in a sec
1/190 Opal Silk (Lik)
Does anyone on siren need Lik before I try and sell these? I have 42 left over!
2 days, 4 hours, 16 minutes and 58 seconds
Since Dameion got his Opal Silk. Such a lucky hoe :\ I guess I fished them so it's my own fault! lol
1/53.........*sigh* (looks at my own 367)
Interesting note, I have 41 Gugrusaurus left over, when I had 42 Lik left over last time. Also anyone on siren want them for ebisu? I'll hang on to them over night and check my PM's tomorrow. Can send me a tell too if you want. I'll do 65% of the AH price.
Love that I didn't buy 1 this time around. Made his ebisu in... 7 days maybe. It took me around 4 months to make mine with just a lu shang and over 60 rod breaks. Ebisu makes a hell of a difference.
so tired of fishing going to feel good taking a lil break from fishing. Those ebisu fish take up so much time.
wish i could say the same but today is day 1 of my aegis and i make 1m a day off hakuryu's and ever morning i do dynamis right before i go fishing. so i see alot of fishing in my future til i finish shield and maybe sword or gun... (save me)
pretty much wake up brush teeth do things i need to do before anything else like look at bills i owe and pay em, then i start fishing i leave character on cliff edge and my laptop sleeps next to me, only time i stop fishing during the day is for dynamis, if friend in RL wanna hang out, friends in game wanna do something, and then regular food bathroom breaks, so yea i believe i do 100 2 sets of 50
Yes.... he does have the weirdest resolution. I keep telling him to fix it. And yes golem is linking to this screenshot, lol. Never got even the top 3 when I tried it a few times, so I crossed his name out since it was my fish <.<!! lmao
oh, and the fish was Takitaro for the heaviest weight.
There are fishing topics that come up now and then but mainly are asking a question for a single answer. I know there are many fishers that visit these forums so this is an attempt to get people involved and have a little fun discussing one and only one thing, fishing!
The emotions of fishing.
I know Blue Gartr has a Fishing topic already, but I would like to see this community get involved a little bit and talk, since not everyone visits BG. I would love to have a topic just for fishers including veteran fishers, casual fishers, and even players just starting out and want to ask a few questions without being embarrassed about starting a whole topic for a simple answer they could not find.
I only ask that you keep any bot talk to a minimum, preferably none.[Moderator edit: No bot talk] I want this to be a place where we can discuss anything from GP items of the day to what lure/bait to use or what area is best. A quick mention of how you're doing on the lu shang/ebisu quest, how you're doing getting your fishing items from Grounds of Valor, that item you're saving your GP up for, or how much you wish you could hurt Zaldon for not finding anything in your fish for the 10,000th time. Your lucky moment streaks and the moments when you have nothing come your way and question why you started fishing in the first place. Anything that comes to mind, think of it as the random thoughts thread for fishing.
I will list a few resources that I find to be useful when it comes to fishing:
BG Fishing Topic Great Blue (Amazing Site <3, is out dated since 2008 but an amazing resource regardless) Final Fishing (Another great resource with one of the most in-depth guides made. Out of date though.)
Fish Size Chart [GE][Wikia] Chenon Diary (The site seems to be down for good though, it was a site made for Fish Ranking)
I shall add more if people provide good resources.
