Entire parties are now leaving ocean fishing early to chase title(s)

[Jojoya]

Not sure if someone mentioned it already but I think the best would be if SE implements a 24 Premade Party.

With that people who seek for specific stuff like the Title can join those without hurting any others who dislike people seeing to leave early. ^^

Groups who are focused on the specific fish achievements aren't hurting your chance for getting the mount. They've got the same chance of triggering a spectral current as any one else.

I got screwed today because half the party I was in left halfway through the first fishing stop. I joined a PF which said mount. Nothing was said about the party leaving if things weren’t going well. As a result, we had zero chance of getting the Spectal Currents we needed, I lost valuable exp, and my scrip haul was

Players who leave like this should incur some sort of penalty, similar to if they leave a normal dungeon run. They should lose the opportunity to queue again , or even join the following fishing trip.

Or it was a trip that had bad RNG regardless of who stayed and who left.

When I got the mount on this character, 2 players left the party I was in when the first current didn't spawn within 4 minutes. Have no idea if other parties on the boat also lost players.

We did get currents in the next 2 zones.

How did I still end up with the mount? Because I managed to land 8 HQ and 2 NQ Executioners using Double Hook during one of the currents. That was over 3800 catch points from those 10 fish alone and I had caught 78 total fish.

Stop worrying about what other people are or aren't doing on the boat. More importantly, stop blaming them for you not getting a high score because it's not their fault. Your score is far more dependent on your RNG and what you do than what anyone else is doing.

Just saying, someone on the JP server solo'd the instance, got all three procs and ended up with 13k.... gonna go with "it doesn't matter what other people do on the boat"
