Magic Bucket = Pure of RNG?

[blueruckus]

40ish casts. It's a big pull animation so ignore everything else. Use Chum and Cordials to speed up the process.

That aside, yeah, RNG.

470 leeches later, finally got it.

[Eul]

Late update, but I already got it after I upgrade some 150 to 170 and in 4 casts I gt this damn magic bucket -_- . Nice RNG SE.

[luckystrikes]

Took me about 130 casts with brute leeches to land my bucket. I already get compliments on the minion from people. I'm glad that is untradeable/unsellable...its a nice tip of the hat to those who leveled their fisher to 60.

and a punch in the face for all the fishers who actually play the class and want something to make money with. and then it is not even a real reward, like i said, it takes no effort and everyone can get it within a few hours. it would have been the perfect reward for the new big fish achievement...

even the Assassin Fry is harder to get...

Why would it need to be hard to get?
The number of Lv60 Fishers is already quite low compared to other classes, so I don't mind having a little reward just for the sake of it.

Besides, I actually had someone asking me questions about that minion in private, mostly how to get it and if it was hard to obtain or not... and after answering these questions, that person seemed motivated to level up its Fisher class. If this reward was harder to get, maybe that person would've gave up.

the thing is: since 3.0 there is not one single usefull fish where you need some good gear or... skill is not the word, let's say patience for xD
so, a fisher has invested millions in his gear at the launch of 3.0, to get all the 170 stuff and materia, lvled the desynthesis to maximum, got all the folklore books - in the end he spent many time and gil to be on top of all the other, say casual fishers. but you can't do anything with it. the fisher spent the time and gil for nothing. No usefull crafting recipes wich needs high lvl fish, no new awesome stuff drom desynthesis - nothing.

sooo, now compare this to the crafting classes. a crafter who invested a lot of time and millions of gil in his gear expect to get some new recipes wich are hard to make too. let's say he has invested in a i190 set right now. what do you think would happen when square decies: nah, it's unfair for all those casual crafters to make the new recipes that hard, let's just implement more 1 and 2 star recipes and nothing else.

sure, a crafter is harder and more expensive to gear, but this exactly happens with the fisher. retribution staff? magic bucket? aethersands? ... you don't need any good gear or folklore books or high desynthesis for that... so... for what have i invested all the work and time?

normally i would invest time and work in the new i190 gear, but i don't see the point. motivate new people to become a fisher is one thing. but square should not forget the people who are already fishers...

The amount of gathering needed to catch it, you don't need to be level 60. It's pretty damn low. Meaning you need to have invested almost no time in fishing. It's incredibly easy with the script system to get any of the crafting/gathering jobs to 60.

I think real level 60 fishers do deserve something that is exclusive to them considering SE has made everything we catch pretty useless.. no desynth rewards that are notable, not much that is crafted with ( a few things here and there ). Nothing like botany and mining whose spoils yield rewards in almost every direction
