In case you missed the live letter from the producer (or don't speak Japanese) you can read all the Q&A's on the official forum here: http://forum.square-enix...-LIVE-Part-V-Q-A-UpdatesLoads of great information but DoL-wise most important information was that treasure maps will be released on one of the first patches. DoLs will be able to find these while gathering and then a party can take on an adventure with a treasure at the end :D Sounds like heaps of fun and a great way for DoLs to be a bigger part of the game. In other news it was revealed that fishing is no longer a mini game. No actions will be taken while fishing giving the opportunity to be more social while fishing. It seems that poles and bait may have larger impact on results though. I for one is not to keen on the "no-action" part but we will have to wait and see. Enjoy all the answers and feel free to discuss below :D |

If that's the case... it's a good thing we're all already 50 fishing and have the Luminary? :p |

I agree Kida on the no-action thing. Getting items fast is great for crafting but it will make them worth alot less and i put alot of time in my 50 fsh/min (never finished botanist lol)
As a side note the treasure maps thing sounds really cool i wonder if we'll be able to sell them. |

I'm ok with how Botany is honestly, but I was hoping Fishing would stay a bit more in-depth to where certain baits were required and you'd have to know the depths and stuff. I guess at the very worst I could settle for it being like Botany has been displayed where you equip a rod and just target the fish you want, but it's sounding like it's going to be even simpler than that. If you ever played WoW and did any fishing, it was a totally random thing where you equip a rod, cast it and right click your bobber when it moved and got something totally random, although the fish you could catch were pre-determined per area. As a Legacy member it's no surprise I will be beta testing every phase, but all I have to say is that if they try to take away Fisherman's identity as a class in this game, I'm going to be VERY vocal about it in the beta forums. While I can agree with Yoshi-P's direction on not wanting gatherers and crafters to be able to solo the entire storyline, writing off a class that some people actually consider their main is just uncalled for without at least getting some input first.
