    Fish Records: Deep Sea AAA?

    Has anyone found out which fish gives a record for AAA in Deep Sea? I have been trying since Stormblood and as of now Rakshasa has replaced Liopleurodon but is still an AA.

    The Vegetarian can be triple A tier. The Ruby Dragon can most likely be also as it can be bigger than Veg.

    Somewhere between 514-533 ilms is the threshold for AAA deep sea. You need to get an HQ vegetarian to reach that size, NQ just can't make it. Ruby Dragon is about 40 ilms larger, so a large NQ one should still be able to cut it.

    You seem like a guy with all sorts of answers. Do you know what fish are required for spearfishing records? Is it possible to get all AAAs in spearfishing or are some stuck at AA? So far the only AAA spearfish I have is Viis Ear, Small Gig, Norvrandt.

    I haven't gone gung-ho trying to get AAA on the Norvrandt spearfishing just yet but I do have AAA on large gig with Bothriolepis at 103.8im. I assume Medium has an AAA as well, just haven't gotten around to catching it yet.

    All of the Stormblood fish are capped at AA, and I don't see that changing unless they add new fish for those spots. The AA sizes were basically within 1 ilm of the max size for those fish, so can't really get any bigger. My AA records for each area were:

    Ruby Sea:
    Small Gig:Bashful Batfish 6.9im
    Medium Gig: Snailfish 43.5im
    Large Gig: Ichimonji 100.7im

    Yanxia:
    Small Gig: Doman Bubble Eye 7.1im
    Medium Gig: Fangshi 35.4im
    Large Gig: Ichthyosaur 102.4im

    Azim Steppe:
    Small Gig: Soul of the Stallion 6.2im
    Medium Gig: Fickle Krait 38.5im
    Large Gig: Flamefish 92.8im

    Lochs:
    Small Gig: Ashfish 6.8im
    Medium Gig: Mercenary Crab 41.3im
    Large Gig: Mosasaur 98.6im

    Thanks guy. Kind of lame for them to make AAA an option but not for all categories. . Seems almost like an intentional move just to mess with people. Some dev is snickering to themselves that nobody can have a perfect record log. Also the Viis Ear is 7.5 im since I forgot to mention it lolol.

    I figured I'd knock out the fishing records so I hunted down the AAA Normal gig fish for Norvrant. I got AAA with a Blue Mountain Bubble at 45.1im.
