New Job: Weatherman!

[Niota]

Because nobody got time to waste hours for a certain kind of weather for fishing or sight-seeing... which albeit are useless minigames for the most part. Way to suck what little fun there is in both by requiring weather to complete tasks.

"It's going to be sunny!" *Rains*

Agreed, all this weather / time of day crap is not enjoyable at all.

For fishing I think it makes things a bit more fun by changing things up every so often, as different fish appear with the different weather patterns and times of day. For the whole sightseeing thing...if certain types of weather happened more often it might be a bit more enjoyable.

Fishing is fine as I'm sure even in real life those things can play a part but the sight seeing it just made me mad. I did 3 and quit the minion is so not worth another form of atma grind....

What needs to be implimented is just a weather prediction system.

You ask for the weather report for each area for lets say, the next 5 days. And you will recibe a chart of possible weathers for said area, so you can do a bit of planning before traveling to maps expecting the weather to be just fine. The system could implement alarms and it could have a nice filter system so you know for example, which areas have chances to have fog, and so on.

Of course, the simple thing to do would be to ask SE to just remove the weather condition of the sightseeing and fishing just leaving the time condition which is previsible for players.

Is hard to belive how wrong an exploration feature can go...

Weather NPC's are due to be introduced in 2.3 I think? They're late. I honestly cannot fathom how they released the Sightseeing Log without the weather NPC's in place.

What is this sorcery you are talking about?

Let me make it simple. Soon there'll be weather forecaster NPC's that will tell you the upcoming weather for a zone. It was mentioned in the Q&A at the Tokyo FATE event.
