I posted here before when I was 0/1 on both Gugs and Liks. Just wanted to post an update, after a long few months and a lot of gil...
1/105 Saber Shoot
1/273 Opal Silk

I'm stoked, if the guild points cooperate with me this week I'll have my new rod this Sunday :D

It depends on what bait/lure you're using.

If you can't catch any fish, and I mean any fish, then that is a good start. Also the less items the better.

Now what pace is the absolute best? I'm not sure.

I'd personally go body > signboard (to get it out of the way) > map

Ok, yes hella grimms/nebs/breams. Anyone know a different bait that will work? Shrimp lures seems to be a no go.

Abaia is a hard fish to catch, even with all the equipment, furnishings, ebisu, ect.

You will not catch very many in an hour of casting.

i think you can only get .3 on legendary fish yeah? that would explain why he got it on abaia and you've never seen it 1-48.

That's how I did it. stall + big one + stock + net and lure gives you mega mog too btw if that hasn't been mentioned, haven't tried it with less. I just need to finish map now and I am done. Too bad I'm ultra lazy.

woot got a really lucky week, started with brown boxes farming since we got Windy Boxes Kupowers on Odin after months again. Builded Prowess for 2 days, then killed only too weak stuff, probably opened over 100 boxes, then when i was about to leave for an event, the last browny finally had the torque lol. Went to Maze this weekend, and again when i was about to leave, the rope popped up^^

Went to Selby yesterday morning to check if some mule had Gugrus, was lucky and got the item finally. Too lazy to count, but i think i bought 150-200 Gugrus.

Liks i catch usually myself and don't buy them, but after i got the first item, i checked another mule who had some Liks for 17k, i bought 7 and got the 2nd item on the 3rd Lik LOL, both items within 5min!!! How lucky and it was still before tally, so YaY finally Ebisu in my hands! Think i traded 200-300 Liks in the end.

But i think i'll keep my Lu Shang for a while to get my WW to 80, think i used 6-7 Stack crystals on fixing it while fishing for Liks, but i got only 3 lvl on WW :(

Still need 350k more GP for the Signboard and whole map, got lazy after i got all KIs and Waders, Smock and Stall and didn't do any GP last 2-3 months :/

Also getting my crafts up to make my own "The Big One"

Cheers^^

My fish are lucky, true story!

Feels good in a way, even if only making 90k was lame.

(My mule is Kcuba)
