Red Scrip > Stupendemys

[Sartori]

I quit fishing for scrips entirely because it's such a pain in the tuckus.and since I don't have any other gatherers, I'm never going to get my cute red scrip fisher gear.

Uhhhh. level your other gatherers? It takes like a few days lol

That's not really a solution.

Actually, leveling the other Gatherers IS a solution. It is, in fact, the only solution, regardless of its palatability. The only other option, which is not really a solution at all because it does not address the problem, is to maintain the status quo, which is clearly not desirable. If it was, there would not be a problem requiring a solution, after all.

Funny how? Where did I say red scrips are working perfectly or not in need of improvements?

Feel free to quote/link any such examples. I think you will find all along I have been saying the system needs minor tweaks and balances. What I described in this thread is a minor balancing issue.

Is this a 1 star fish or a level 60 fish?

It's a 1 star fish. Capelin, berserker betta, storm chaser, lavalord, loosetongue, barreleye, stupendemys, spring urchin, euphotic pirarucu, tornado shark, lungfish are all 1 star level 60 fish.

Well I'm not sure if Fishing and Mining/Botany are comparable in this regard, but no Miner/Botanist ever goes for the 1* Red Scrip option. It's not so much that it's impossible to do, but rather that the stats required to cap collectability is much higher than the Adamantite/Greens. Also, the extra scrips doesn't outweigh the sacrifice of getting HQ legendary materials.

I don't even use fisher for red strips anymore, miner and botanist cap my weekly far better than fisher does. Red strips for fisher needs a big major overhaul, even was using patience II sometimes i go without a fish for 2 mins cos the fish get's away compared to BTN and MIN where i can gather x6 items within 10 mins for nearly 60-70 red strips every 30 mins.

It's not a solution to stupendemys though, they still need to become a viable red scrip fish. Currently they are not despite being part of the red fishing scrip rotation. You can cap on other fish but that's not ideal either overall as SE should want all rotational fish to be worth farming even if at different difficulties but right now stupendemys are not worth bothering with so a slight adjustment to that specific fish would be my solution.

[UknowUknow]

I am not saying should be as easy as storm chasers but raising the bite rate from 2-3% to 10% from straight catch and from 10% to 20% from mooch would not be an unreasonable request for example.

Throw in all the 1* fish except storm chasers in the red scrip rotation, I bet you would still complain for a rate increase.

Are you aware that you are comparing BTN and MIN Vs. FSH? BTN Vs FSH or MIN Vs. FSH by themselves, FSH will always get more per 30 mins.

Stupid stupendemys stupendous stupidest

Thunder eels or tiny axo, work smarter not harder.

Well I'm not sure if Fishing and Mining/Botany are comparable in this regard...

They are comparable

...and you would be wrong. I would in fact ask SE to lower the bite/catch rate on storm chasers if they were within the scrip rotation.

I want it better balanced. I don't know why you find that so hard to understand.

Go back and read what I said before. This particular fish is clearly not balanced adequately to entice people to make use of it in the red scrip rotation and like with anything SE creates for the players...SE wants people to make use of it. I do not know why your arguing against improving or resolving a problem with this specific fish of which you acknowledge 99% of fishers don't bother with it as it is not worth it currently. Some of us would rather not stick our fingers in ears, close our eyes and pretend there is no problem or possible improvement that could be made just because can fish for other things. What I am suggesting to SE is they improve the balance of this fish so people actually have a reason to fish for it by proxy make use of what SE created for them to make use of etc.

If your so happy fishing for other things and pretending everything is perfectly balanced and there are no problems with it then feel free to continue doing what you was doing before but some of us want all aspects of this game to be well balanced and worth making use of what SE put time and effort into creating, whether that goes for individual items or equipment, skills and/or classes, gathering/crafting and battle content. So you don't think there is a problem? Good for you, feel free to ignore this thread then and move on. Some of us do see a problem with it and would ideally like it better balanced, a minor change made and one that would not impact you in any negative way so why are you arguing against it? If 99% of people are not fishing for it then surely it is in theirs and your best interest that SE makes it worth fishing for.

You do realize all 1* fish except/besides storm chaser are hard to catch right? They are 1* for a reason. I am not arguing more like questioning why only stupendemys?

stupendemys- all weather/no window. Capelin- fish eye/window. Loosetongue- fair,clear/window. I am actually surprised you aren't complaining about capelin, which is alot harder than stupendemys.

Capping both crafting/gathering red scrips is a hassle in it's self. Players like myself will find the quickest route to cap, with thunder eels/tiny axo/Adamantite Ore. What you are doing is taking the longest route.
