Let's Talk Fishing!
Personally I think they should have 2 different GP items for each guild for the day, to at least give you some flexibility. Since each item has it's own GP caps, perhaps make it to once you turned in 1 of the 2 requested GP items that it locks you into that 1 item for the rest of that day till JP midnight.

I waited this long and never did "Amateur" rank GP, and I wont start now :P only reason i did gp today is because when i checked ffxiah at 11:30ish there were 8 stacks of jellyfish in the ah lol.

Nah, nothing else is really important. You can only have 1 moglification up at once too. Leviathan.Hohenheim said: » Nah, nothing else is really important. You can only have 1 moglification up at once too. do you still get +1 skill bonus from the furniture though ? so i could get both skil lbonues for cooking and for fishing ?

I'm pretty sure you don't get +1 skill bonus from the furniture, you get the +1 bonus from the moghancement that the furniture provides. So, since you can only have 1 moghancement up at once, I would guess the answer to be: no, you cannot get both skill bonuses at the same time. Does anybody else ever forget to swap into fishing gear? When I fish I clear my inventory of pretty much everything non-fishing related, except for herald's gaiters to get to/from my fishing spot more quickly. But once I get to my fishing location, I almost ALWAYS forget to swap into the waders. 2+ hours will go by before I finally look at my feet and realize I've been fishing in the gaiters the whole time.
I know the +2 fishing skill makes little to no difference, but I spent all that time getting 70k guild points so I should at least use them for what I got them for: to fish.

I had the same problem, but I use this simple macro to fish now.
/equip feet waders <wait 2> /fish Suppose you could make it more elaborate and have every piece of fishing gear macrod in, but I'm always forgetting waders cause my nin shoes. BTW the <wait 2> is nice because as soon as the macro fails, I know I'm in the beginning stages of fatigue. Hot diggity damn. Yellow Globe! 1600 points of AWESOME. Sadly someone beat me to the fishing guild to buy them out ~.~

I like having the echo at the beginning just so that I have confirmation that the macro was actually pressed. Before I put in the echo, there were times that I'd hit my macro (or think that I did) and wait and wait and wait and I'd never begin fishing. This was back on the original fishing system when the recast timer on /fish started out at like 14 seconds. So, if you accidentally let go of CTRL before you hit the 1 key, you wouldn't know right away since you were waiting 14 seconds regardless. Anybody else fish back on the pre-fight system? Back when wearing fishing skill gear was extremely beneficial... Every 10 levels of fishing skill dropped the recast on /fish by an additional second, meaning more fish caught per hour. Those were the days... Yeah. I actually preferred that fishing system then this one. back then I could carry on a conversation with people. Now it's /fish *type out a sentence* -fight fish for 30 seconds- *type sentence* /fish *type sentence* -fight fish for 30 seconds-
That and fighting gugs on a PC suuuuucks. I'm so tempted to get a copy for my PS2 just to make fishing them easier... Anyone else ever fish on the 360? Water on the ferry looks amazing, otherwise I hate console graphics
FINALLY!!!!   <3 XI-UI, only way I was able to get that angle And SE, you need to reduce the tile requirements for Mannequins. If you think you have to cut down the space provided by them to make it 1 square do it. Please. She doesn't need 9 squares. -.-  And so it begins, the quest to get Net And Lure and then Fishing Hole Map. I'll see you all in 2 years when I finish.

That sign board made me think of this from the lol thread :3
Edit: ok not the sign board, but the fish on the wall -.- I actually managed to buy my net and lure off the AH, so I would save it for last if you are open to buying it.

Congrats Kali, That's an awesome setup you have there.
Oooooooooooooooooooo
 I didn't know that :O You get a title when you purchase the signboard lol

Sea horrors aggro at 95 And do sizable damage when you're naked save for fishing gear and you're a BRD.

I waited this long and never did "Amateur" rank GP, and I wont start now :P I haven't done fishing GP in ages (actually had like 400k in the bank before the new stuff was released), but iirc the merchant down by the boat in bibiki bay sells jellyfish. I don't know if it's something people check, or if it can sell out, but back when I did GP he always had enough. |
