I preferred Talacca Cove to 96, it's a 2min run from Nashmau. Only hook fish that are 88, 90, and 96 I believe. After that you can try Armored Pisces in Oldton.

It's not the greatest, but you can cap 200 fish a day there in about 8-10 hours.

I'd probably say I went 1/1 too just to mess with people's minds. Just cause he says he is 1/1 doesn't make it true

with alot of work r/l i have not been able to fish much. still 0/564 lol meh


The only thing I've noticed about the people who haven't gotten their shawls is that they didn't have a craft 100+ besides fishing. Does anyone know anyone that got a shawl to start crafting or a lower level crafting like me at 78?


Edit: I've seen a couple lower now. No idea why we're cursed. None whatsoever. The only thing I can think is that I'm handing them in during the day (EST) and that I should be handing them in at night when ppl send me tells that they're getting them then. Random is random but this has gone too far >.>

1/48 on shawl. Not too shabby.

Oh ffs. I had stockpiled bait getting to 110 before I started on Matsya. After gettting my shawl I burned through the rest and figured maybe I'd try for one on my mule. 1/22 on mule. Lots of matsya for sale on cerb haha.

So...I've been turning in marlins for pirate's and brigands charts for the past few days. I have about 8 or 9 pirate's charts and not one brigand's chart. Any thoughts? I though brigand's chart was the common one but that's obviously not the case for me.

Edit: I've been putting pirate's charts in my dbox. Do you need to have a pirate's chart in your inventory in order to get a brigand's?...hell I just got another pirate's chart in the span of 2 minutes. :/

Keeping pirate's in inventory will prevent you from getting another and increase chances of gaining Brigand's!

Oh, this takes me back...

In short, no, this is not the case. There was some testing done on this subject (I believe it was originally from titanictus.com (RIP)), and it did not increase the drop rate.

e: http://wiki.ffxiclopedia.org/wiki/Inside_the_Belly See the note at the bottom of this page. And yeah, it was originally from titanictus.

That's never been shown conclusively. In fact, wikis indicate that holding one chart does nothing to help you get another. It's just luck, hold pirate's or don't, it won't make brigand show up any faster. Sorry.

Edit: Aw, Nibu beat me to it.

Just seems to be a nightmare getting hold if Robber's currently, managed to get one the other day but lost it :( and now none on AH. which is why i wondered if there was an alternate bait i could use.
thanks!

As long as the message "We are nearing X location" hasn't shown you can repair the rod. If you do see the message you have 45 seconds before you dock, so don't.
