I'm OK with it not being a huge profit for economy/bot reasons, but it sure would be nice if it covered the teleports and repairs involved. :\

    You fished at Brewer's beacon and NPCed the catch? My L 50 fisher alt fishes there with goby balls, going for white coral. The bycatch, harbor herring, is also saleable on the AH. I find it hard to believe you caught neither of those.

    You teled when you could have choco portered from Swiftperch for 15 or 30 gil?

    This is Squenix's fault just how?

    Herring NPCs for 4 gil, it's selling for 9 gil currently.

    White Coral I received 7 of after an hour of fishing, and sell extremely slowly for 200-300 gil, although depending on the crafting needs of the economy, that can swing high or low more often.

    Also how is swiftperch remotely relevant? I would have to teleport there also unless you're going to pull the walk everywhere card. You could have at least suggested setting my HP to Limsa and taking the ferry and suggesting the inconvenience is worth the paltry sum that would save (Which would cost more in the long run due to missing the free-HP to a more regularly visited location), but hell if we're going to completely ignore huge inconveniences for paltry sums, I'd personally suggest "Hey, just set your HP in Swiftperch and return when you need to go back!".

    You do realize servers don't share the same market boards, right? Or do you not understand how that translates to fish and varying levels of market board profitability?
