Well, as an Alchemist I can say that i'm really wishing I had levelled a little bit of Fisher :(
That said, some very potent potions are done with fishes, most specifically the Mega-Potions of [X], which are a short-lived but gigantic (from what my little experience says) boost to an attribute (they really could use a slightly lower cooldown, though).
But yes, Fisher is pretty underused and it should be used more! Heck, we could have fishscale armor, have a handful more dishes with fish perhaps.
I'm going to let you guys imagine a suitable way to apply them to weapons/accessories since I can't think of it

On topic: We just need "high difficulty" potions and foods. They could also implement fish that culinarians clean and get bones instead of sand, and said bones could be used in new items. -

They could always put in Angel Skin like in XI or something along those lines. The coral stuff sounds like a great idea too^^ I am guessing they are holding off until 2.0 as with most things.

I wish they would put in a new fishing mini game. I hate XIVs so much.

06-17-2012, 05:27 AMSkiesTruth to be told, fishing is essentially standardized with all the other Disciples of Land. Aim Phase with height, Approach Phase with swinging timed pointer.Quote:

Before they add new content, I'd like to see them fix the "jig lag" issue. If you don't jig IMMEDIATELY, the fish will have "gotten away" due to you taking too long. This is annoying for two reasons: One, there's quite a bit of time (at least for me) between your first jig, and your second (the time during which it removes the Wait option), and two, it can be a pain when the fish is on the right side, as that takes longer to reach.
I'd love to see actual new content for FSH, though part of the problem is that it's used mainly for consumables. People have no problem saving up and working hard to get that awesome piece of gear, because it will stay with them forever. The same cannot be said for consumables. If a crafter makes some expensive potion or food using rare materials, they aren't going to make a lot of money with it. People simply won't buy it because you can't really justify blowing that much cash on a single fight. The OP's idea with adding a version of the "Inside the Belly" quest from XI is probably the best way to go about doing it. -

I Liked your post, OP, but I will say that Yoshi has said there's some love for gatherers coming down the line. As someone who fishes 98% of his total playtime, I look forward to getting that love.
Also Alligator Garfish, damn you! -

They should add some VERY rare items for Alchemist and Cook to make. Maybe items that can give you a temporary 40% boost in exp, 25% boost in HP, etc. Fisherman can provide the ingredients for these recipes.
