So are the other two gathering classes but they are massively imbalanced in relation to fishing.

Totally agree on Identical/Surface too, OP. It's absolute trash that spearfishing lasts the entire node but we can't get multiple casts out of the fishing version.

Fishing needs an update badly. Spearfishing is much more in line with the other gathering classes. Now they need to fix the surface level side.
