    Twin adders provisioning mission (fisher)

    I am a level 29 fisher and my GC, Twin Adders, provisioning quest is for Bianaq Bream which is caught using "shrimp cage feeder" and there is a huge problem fulfilling this mission.

    The Shrimp cage feeders sell on a merchant for 300g each making this one mission already cost me more than a few thousand gill.

    But the real problem is the Shrimp Cage feeder, it is categorized as bait but it is a LURE, not bait.

    In the tackle box it sits with the lures, not with the baits. That is why it costs 300g each, it is wrongly categorized as bait and therefor costing a fortune to use. Most bait is less that 20g, nowhere near 300g each.

    Please fix the shrimp cage feeder lures to be lures that are not consumed, and until then please remove the Bianaq Bream from the missions because it cost way to much to fulfill.

    PS I'd post this in the bug area but this is the only place I can start a thread any more.

    Thankfully the Bianaq can also be caught randomly with just spoonworms, but thank you for bringing that up. They are disposable bait, but they cost a fortune to purchase, and I was curious myself if that was a mistake.

    You can't use spoon worms until level 30, the provisioning mission that requires these fish is pre-30, once you hit 30 it's a different fish (Grip Kilifish).

    So the only way to get them is using the shrimp cage feeders, which are not bait, they are lures that are coded wrong, they even place themselves in with the lures, not the bait in the tackle box.

    I'm with you on this one. Either lower the price of the "shrimp cage feeder" (300gils for a one shot .... seriously?). Either make it craftable for us, I don't want to spend a fortune on a one time bait! Plus the animation on it is uneasy to determine if the fish did bite or not... It will be alright if the bait was inexpensive, but it isn't.
