Heh, that's with. Trying to skip the last bit of the i70 rod. But, my i70 accessories were temporarily on loan to my retainer for exploration xiv's so I can hit 340, good to know.

Edit: snagged back the accessories and with spniach quiche hq it was putting me @ 339...made the new belt and hit 340.

(that's with no fc gathering+ action)

The minimum gathering required for this fish should be 348 or 349.
Actually I only tested it with 343 (not enough gathering) and 349 but a LS mate said he got the 'you don't have enough gathering' message with 347.

Heh, yeah I just came back to say I just got insufficient gathering @ 340. Back to Moraby Drydocks...

I'm glad it seems they've made it so you can't skip the Forager's rod. That small grind is an important part of showing your diligence as a fisher.

Actually no, just need the fc action. And that thing is no small grind.

Lost this one twice with gathering 348, I suspect food is required.

It's only about 30 hours. That's nothing. You wouldn't survive a day fishing in FFXI if you think 30 hours is a "long" grind haha.

Wow @ that outlook. Not looking to "survive" content, looking to enjoy it. And the average is about double that for foragers rod, it's been calculated and compared with the measely 45 minutes for the other 2 gathering i70's. Good to see SE sort of listened to changing it for the fishing rod by making it skippable with a more reasonable grind.

Sometimes it can literally take hours and a helluva lot of luck to land a new big fish. 370 gathering and they still get away more often than the last big fish. Beginning to wonder if I'll even 100% this log this time around.
