Regarding fish/pot spamming in WoE

[Mondt]

Farming Yggs is tedious/long. Farming Mastelas/Blues is tedious/long.

Mining for fish is also tedious/long, but you'll notice the severe lack of "farming."

You sit, click and hit enter a ton, maybe replace some stuff in your cart because your person is overweight, repeat. Now you go to the fishing spot. Do the same thing. Lather, rinse repeat. This is as opposed to going to, say, Geffenia and farming Succubi and Incubi because they drop Mastelas and Blues like candy, which are both amazing recovery items (And Mastelas sell like crazy).

I farmed in Pre-Amatsu Gef4 for weeks on a previous server, killing succu/incu for money and ended up with a whopping 900 blues. Weeks. 900 blues. Think it would take weeks to get 900 salmon? I don't fish, but I would assume not, unless they drop at the rate of Muscovite or Gold in mining. You know how long those 900 blues lasted? *shrug* About a month of WoE, 4 hours a week total. Gave them to a champ friend of mine who really only used them for Asura when we were up against 4 other guilds. XD

Point is, they are too easily farmable for a small chance of status. And being frozen isn't too big of an issue unless you're against a wizard and if you have any amount of MDEF, it's not a problem at all. Worst fish status? Stun. Can't get out of it.

Yggs and Fish don't balance out, but that's just my say. And by the looks of it, at least 10 other people in this thread.
