About the FISH

[razoredge]

?!?
If a wiz is able to carry 50 salmon he will be able to carry 25.
If a knight is able to carry 200 salmon he will be able to carry 100.
This apply to anyone

and that helps the wiz or makes it fair for them how? You do realize you have a 100 item limit on stuff in your inventory before you become overweight without having to be overweight. Lets say you put 90 different items in your inventory that each weigh 1 and you include the 10 items you are equipped with, you won't be overweight by your actual weight standards but it will say you are overweight because you can't hold anything else. Currently as it is per my earlier post the only fish that ISN'T heavier than it's pots counter parts is the white pot/blue pot, the point is to make it convenient and to keep one less slot open.

#1 Its not about WoE only. If u go in a dunjon, u still have the weight restriction for carrying pots and fish. This applies everywhere. People who goes for a run at lvl5-6 thanathos (exemple, because it is a place it is long to go town and come back) will have to decide between carrying pots or fishes. And as I said, if people start using more pots, it will affect the economy because people will need more zeny and others will need the help of alch to make pots.

#2 About the maths with the fishing. You forgot that when fishing u get items like boots or anvil that can be sold to npcs afterwhile and by doing so u can recorver almost all the zeny spent for fishing.

#3 You don't only gets salmons by fishing, you also get angels, doris, and nemos fish wich are better =o

#4 Hunting blue pots is the worst way to ge them. You can kill seals than bring ur blue herbs to an npc at alberta who will makes blues pots for you or u can ask an alchemist to do them. You can also buy them.

#5 Zeny are getting more value theses day since the auction event made by pandora, but there are still a lot of people who wouldnt trade some items for zeny just because they know it will be hard for them to re-trade those zeny.

Re #1: The only difference currently is the fact that you are carrying one less item for the same weight. 100 salmon = 100 whites & 100 blues currently at the same weight... I really don't see a problem =/. Alchemist's pots as I said before (need verification from a gm) may heal more than their intended amount if they are on the alchemist list at #1 (I think, as I said need a gm verification). I personally don't carry pots or fish when I level, but I play a priest kind of no need for it XD. But I know my friends love the convenience fish add to the game because they make less trips to the kafra just to waste more money in warps/pot purchasing/bwings/loss of exp due to 90% weight/etc...

Re #2: I know; however, if you read my post you will see that I said we were pretending that nothing else dropped and that you always caught a fish. Currently you don't always catch fish (as you can not catch anything at all) and then you get items, some sell for enough money and others
don't sell for much of anything (skull for example).

Re #3: As I said before I was going by just the fish that come to mind quickly. As of the current moment on my fishing I don't catch angels all that much and have yet to see a dori or nemo.

Re #4: what stops people from then doing that to sell blue pots in pront? So that people who can't make them have a chance to buy them cheaper?

Re #5: If zeny is more valuable then why do you want to push up a weight limit on something that supposedly nets you the same thing or more of pots for the same or a cheaper price? By your logic, we should spend more money for pots so we can somehow have more money? I don't see how that gives me more money for those auctions o.O... I can see how it could line the pockets of alchemists but not mine.

As I said, I'm all for adding an animation but when the fish are already equal to the weight of their counterparts or higher then I don't see how it helps to raise it at all.

Now as far as angel/dori/nemo since I don't know their exact weight or healing ratio vs pots I can't say anything.

And to the person that said blue pots are really hard to come by, well I (and a lot of other people i'm sure) still have over 2k stored without spending a single zeny. How? Simple: leveling at seals.

I said if you're trying to hunt monsters that actually "drop" pots, not go make them through an npc, not everybody across the world that plays ro knows about it
