Lovely Ideas for the Fisherman

The fishing class needs to get some cool features.
In FFXI fishing was a big deal, and actually quite enjoyable.

Here's some ideas I've been thinking of:

- Data Center wide Fishing Tournaments
(Largest/Smallest fish by size/weight)

- Open water zones navigated by player owned vessels
(Flying mounts/zones confirmed, why not naval?)

- Open water fishing with complex angling system
(Moon phases, seasons, time of day, etc)

- Boat construction could play heavy into Disciples of the Hand

- Fishing story/quest lines

Just to name a few.. Does anyone else have any suggestions?

I really like your idea. I do think that it is too early to implement this into the Game. Reborn is relatively young in the MMO world and features are still making their way into the game. We are to get the ability of sky mounts as well as possible aerial exploration and I feel that is a mighty big step for SE and I applaud them for sticking their necks out to try a new game mechanic. It shows us our devs aren't stale, or at least they try not to be. I really support your idea and I hope they implement it in the future. I would DEFINITELY start fishing if they used this system. :)

Yeah, obviously this is something that would be far out, if it ever came to be. There's a lot of potential with this game. They have a solid foundation they can build on top of while the mmo industry rapidly changes as the years go on.
