Fishing and how it..

[desufin]

not to sound like a troll, but maybe stop fishing? At least for a little while. I find when I get upset at something, weather it be wiping on a new boss, farming atma, FATEs for animus books, hunts, farming dungeons for gear, trying to craft that 3*, etc. I simply do something else for a while. Can be a day, a week or a month. Who cares if u miss a fog patch because you are mining? Go get the next one when you aren't so busy and I bet you catch it quicker than u thought.

I would do this if Big Fish didn't become a requirement to progress with fishing now with the new rod from achievements. It also doesn't help that as I said, Fog is really rare, depending on how I'm online and not doing other things, it's between 24-48 real life hours to even see it which is insane for a single weather effect. I know the 2.4 fishes have similar rare weather requirements with weather transitions, but at the same time it seems SE changed the weather rotations to accommodate for it (hence the frequent triple weather chains now) but Fog was either made more rare, or is intentionally that rare, in which case the fish needing it should not, like Syldra isn't that rare once it rains in Lower La Noscea, there is a clear disconnect between requirement and result and it shouldn't exist.

What's the point of meeting the overly costly and time consuming FSH requirement if the fish itself is an obnoxious time sink with literally no logic, sanity or reward behind it? It makes getting the gear pointless and just feel like a waste when it should be the opposite.

Edit: Even the game is taunting me now, 2 more to the count of get aways and a HA HA FUNNY ACHIEVEMENT. I have all the reasons to be mad right now and the devs behind this can shove a large camel spider crab up their rears.
