Ok so FSH was my first DoL, the first I took once our inventory size was upped. It's currently r43. Every night for the past few weeks I've been fatiguing it on Blue and Red Corals to help out some GLDs in my LS.

When I've got some extra time, I'll chip in an additional MIN (or rarely BTN) session. Get some Pyrites and Gold Sands. r40 and r38 in those respectively.

My issue is that FSH on the whole takes about twice the time to fatigue as the other two DoL. I'm not sure why they decided to cripple it so badly relative to the other two DoL. Here's some of what I think is wrong:


1) Jig Lag: No other DoL suffers from this limitation, if I'm not quick in the approach phase there is no consequence in BTN and MIN, why then does FSH get it? What about my latency?

2) Animations >.<: I don't mean to rant but no game has been so beholden to it's animations like this one... what do I mean? Well in BTN and MIN you 'get' an item. There is no accompanying animation, with FSH? Oh well looks like I have to waste time watching my toon grab the fish. Oh I didn't get it? Ah well there's a different slower animation for that too... >.<

3) Fish getting away, sometimes they just do, I guess... ok... Jig Lag? I don't know sometimes I'm seemingly very quick but the first jig action still leads the fish to getting away.

4) NOTHING BITES x24!!!!! Ok, one gathering attempt in MIN or BTN? Takes less then 5s... in FSH a successful action assuming a bite takes me 14s (I know this is variable, in g4 at r43 I'm guessing it should be as quick as possible, no?)

BUT IF NOTHING BITES.... This can happen consecutively for 20+ times... in a row. I swear one time Black Sabbath's Iron Man came on Pandora... and by the end of the track... 5m:34s I had still not completed a single fishing action because of Nothing Bite!


Ok sorry for the passion, but I'm going insane because unlike the majority of the FSH player base I'm not running a FSH bot here, I am a human being... and the stark disparity between FSH and MIN sessions is just too much to bear.
