Olgoi-Khorkhoi, Found it! New Legendary fish you need 3 of for Halycon Rod Supra

Wow that's really disappointing to hear　(´・ω・`)

Hasn't the majority of fishing been kind of a disappointment? GP stat on gear with no use for GP, no tacklebox, fish basically being trash in many aspects. I love fishing though and will continue to do it, but it seems like they could do way more quality of life aspects.

I actually enjoyed big fishing for the achievements and I always found it kinda relaxing after frustrating ex primal runs.
I figured if they're adding something to fishing it would be nice...well in general I am pretty much disappointed with desynthesis to begin with but I guess now maybe it's an alternative to just selling the fish to NPCs for a small amount of gil?

I would like to point out to everyone that catching 3 Olgoi-Khorkhoi is nowhere near as time consuming or difficult as catching our 20 HQ Silver sovs was... and therefore, has almost no feeling of accomplishment.

Then, the fieldcraft demimateria IIIs that we need aren't obtainable by fishing or desynthing fish. Our only choices are to either shell out tons of gil that we don't have (because fishing wasn't designed to make lots of gil), or to level an entirely different crafting class other than CUL just so we can desynth lvl 70 gathering/crafting gear and hope for a demimateria drop. It's possible that prices on the demimateria may fall in the coming days, but with lvl 70 gear needing to be desynthed, it's going to be super expensive. And even after basically doing this merchant quest rather than fishing, it's only an increase of 10 gathering over our Forager Rods.

Needless to say, I'm very upset with how this was implemented. Instead, we should have a unique, untradeable demimateria that can only be obtained by desynthing 2 star, green legendary fish, and then with a low drop rate. If it were like that, then we could obtain the demimaterias very slowly by, surprise, fishing! I cannot agree with basically just buying our new rod. It's not in the spirit of fishing, and the patience of job signifies, nor is it even fair to require the same number of demimaterias on miner and botanist as fisher when those professions were designed to be connected to the economy and make gil and ours was nerfed to a hobby.

What would you guys say to a unique, untradeable demimateria that only drops from desynthing 2 star, legendary fish instead?

Yes :/ Honestly it doesn't seem like it's worth it to bother with the new rod. My tomato pie will probably be good enough to catch all the new fish anyway.
