The general rule is to move onto the next grade when leves open up for you (5, 15, 25, 35).

As such you can move to G5 around R32 or 33, but you may loose a few more fish.

As it is now, G5 is the highest grade available, so you will be doing them all the way to R50. Good luck ^.^

Hmmm well got bored of grade 4 and went to 5 at mid 30, getting 500-550 per catch and about 250 per fish getting away, i find it hard to believe that by 35/36 this SP with be about 100 per catch and that has to last til 50 some how ?

It doesn't drop that fast. at R40 in G5 I get about 240 per success on average. Then double that with Sweat of Brow. In saying that though, at R39 I as getting on average 290, so it did take a dive at that point :(

yes I do love Sweat of Brow and highly suggest getting it if not have already. It kicks in quite a lot for me and leves.

I fully expect some tweaking to happen with skill points. It's just too low at certain lvls. I understand it's not supposed to be easy and I don't want a total cake walk and grinding to a point is part of any mmorpg. I just think they'll figure out ways to help pick up the slack somehow.

nice job! Don't let it annoy you too much if Sweat of Brow doesn't kick in when you want it. It's random as heck but just keep all other fisher/botany abilities out to have the best chance for it to kick in. I went on a 20min ish SoBrow spree other day doing regular fishing and then later it wouldn't kick in for squat in leves so go figure.

but it's worth it to me to have it only one equipped. I got up to 29 today fishing so it'll be G5 time before too long.

Hope your enjoying your fishing. The SP is actually really solid at all ranks now, not like when I was ranking to 50 6 months ago at under 100sp a catch towards the end lol
