Fishing Question

[OMega_ARcane]

Hey guys,

I hate fishing "props to those of you who like/love it and excel at it!", but I am trying to endure it by catching 1000 fish for the PSN trophy. I have been just grinding the fisher out and often seriously start falling asleep when I am fishing. Anyways, is there anyway you can check just how many fish you've caught? Something akin to checking your game time with /time. Is there such a command in game? Or will I just forever grind until I hit the 1000 mark? I know there are the "catch 30 fish here, catch 300 fish there", but I wanted a more on point count. Thanks in advanced!

FFXIV fishing is for Netflix, Hulu, Crunchyroll, Amazon Prime, Youtube, etc. I seriously feel your pain about wanting to fall asleep.

Haha yeah, its hard to say the least. I just gave up for now...you know why? I hit the 1000 mark, and nothing came up, no trophy. I thought to myself well...this is weird, maybe it needs to sync up to something first. 30 minutes pass by, nope. I think to myself well...maybe mooched fish don't count or some crap, so I go and fish another 50 times...Still nothing...quick internet search leads me to learn that catching fish in both mordonna and in coreathans don't count towards the mark...how the heck?!?! WTF!!!! GAHHHHH!!!!! seriously crushing as I had caught almost all the fish from those two areas from about level 30 and up! I will do it, but not anytime soon. There are just no amount of words as to why this is a thing...-_- still salty about it till this day...I actually hit the 1000'th mark that same day I replied on 12/23.

Fishing (or gathering in general, but fishing especially because of staying in one place) is when I'm really glad I have 3 monitors AND a minibike under my desk. Get some exercise, watch some videos, very relaxing.

Awwwww man.... Honestly how I approach fishing is like this. Go to fishing log... pick zone... pick a spot and go for log completion. Don't think about the 1000 fish and just go for one big fish at a time. There are some big fish that are not weather dependent and you can just go cast for. For me fishing is actually a good investment as I made a pile off of Pipira Pira in HW.

I honestly have a TON of big fish still to catch from ARR. But somedays you want to catch up on XYZ anime (mine is One Piece) and I fidget so I fish while watching it. Sometimes you need that mindless activity.

I don't play on ps4 but sounds to me psn trophy is tied to the achievements? The 1000x achievement is per zone in each la noscea, shroud,thanalan.

PSN has their own trophy system. Thankfully it doesn't have to be every zone and is just 1000 fish in total from either of the 3.

Not if you are a serious endgame fisher.

But for casual fishing oh yeah.
