How important is appraisal to you crafters?

[Shikaree]

There's 2 things I look for when doing a craft leve, the SP and the possibility for the guild marks in the reward. Appraisal is the last thing on my mind. Also because of the bold synth nerf a while back (used to have better net gain on bolds all the time) I don't go for quality unless it's a synth outside of a leve I'm making an attempt to HQ for.

OK another question for the fishermen, wtf is wrong with fishing and why do i "lose the fish" so many damn times no matter where I fish and how I fish and what bait I use and I even have gathering armor on me to boost my skills. Why is it such a tedious process?? takes forever to get any SP off it unless you're doing leves and those are even a pain in the ass sometimes too.

I believe you hit gathering fatigue. SE has a system where you have an internal counter that reduces every time you gather something, after a point you get reduced gains and can fail more often even if you managed to hit your item.

I'm using lug worms in the ocean, seems trivial to me. Gathering fatigue seems to come quick then? how lame, I hope they get rid of fatigue in every aspect in the game, wut a stupid system.

what rank are you and where are you fishing, that also has ALOT to do with it if your in an area too soon

Places I'm having trouble at are beginner locales like inside Limsa Lominsa and just outside near Bearded Rock at grade 1 locations. Its honestly trivial and I'm not stupid to overlook something like location and bait :P :P but its driving me insane cuz I really wanna pursue fishing and culinary in this game but fishing is giving me a hard time so far. Even Rank ~1 leves are being a pain in the ass for me.
