It’s in the water surrounding Shoal Rock (that large coral thingy). Keep in mind its NOT at the beach where the quest NPC is. Your next rod is at 67 and it might not bond in time… Meld Gathering III+ on it, and overmeld it with whatever (trash materia if you must) so it Spiritbonds faster. I won’t lie though, even though this is the “next best thing”, I still found it garbage tier compared to the Common Whelk spearfishing.įirst thing to do once you hit 65: HQ Pine Fishing Rod. Use Patience > Powerful Hookset as often as you can. I don’t want to spearfish! I want to AFK fish! The best option in this tier is in Yanxia – The One River East (X:20, Y:24) using the bait Nightcrawler. You’re better off recycling your method from the previous tier, which is farming Common Whelks and using Veteran Trade on Armored Crayfish… It’s a little unexciting, I know. You may be familiar with similar skills from BTN and MIN. Fishing Level 64 to 66 FSH 64 LevequestsĪt 64 you unlock Calm Waters, which grants another attempt at spearfishing. If you catch an Armored Crayfish on the 1st or 2nd spear, use Veteran Trade, AND ALL REMAINING GATHERS WILL BE COMMON WHELK (since it’s 50/50, you eliminated the chances for the crayfish). Now, go back to Yanxia and try the Common Whelks again. Read the above clicky about Veteran Trade. The less fish possibilities, better chances you’ll get at isolating the one you want. The efficiency of this is largely dependent on fishing holes. It vastly narrows down the possible outcomes of a spear attempt, so you can zone in more easily on levequest fish and such. This allows you to “not catch the previous fish you caught” when spearfishing. At around 80k per node with manuals, you can’t go wrong with this either.Īt L63 you unlock Veteran Trade, and this changes the game. Grinding on the Spearfishing Node with Commercial Manuals on is decent EXP and more “active”. Overall it’s roughly equal to the Rapids Jumper fishing hole. You can go back to good ‘ol Highlands Perch but this is what I suggested doing from L61 so you might be sick of it. You can catch these straight and off of mooches which is great. Rapids Jumper (levequest fish) was the best method I found to push past this mini speed bump. This is the absolute best time to use them. Remember, no matter which method listed below that you choose to do, ALWAYS KEEP COMMERCIAL SURVIVAL MANUAL UP. Now that you have SOME gear upgrades, you can Fish a little more reliably to get through to 62. It’s the exact same upgrade set I recommended for the other DoL. You will gather some pile of NQ and a few HQ Highland Perch – which is a fish required for levequests!Īt this point, you may want to craft/use the general DoL gear upgrades I recommended for MIN and BTN. Go to The Fringes – Mirage Creek and farm that fishing hole. While I tried various things, here’s the best overall thing I found at the time. So how do we do that? Unfortunately, given your stats, your options are super limited. Which means hitting 61 and getting gear upgrades. Your goal is to get away from this “scrubby feeling” ASAP. If your gear is less than that, I suggest picking up the Birch Fishing Rod and Serpentskin Vest. Just for some perspective – I tried to do this in “ Serpentskin 3.0 tier” with the L60 Birch Fishing Rod. References here for easy access: FSH 60 Levequests We will start this page by posting the collectible table, as you might want to refer to it often: Easy Reference: FSH Collectibles and Levequests FSH Collectibles (All 60+) Pot Salmon Roe – it comes from many NPC’s but I guess the most generic one is in Rhalgr’s Reach (13,11). What next? Well, now all you need to do is buy some bait. | | | | | | įirst of all, get your quest going into Stormblood Fishing – Whither Wawalago Wanders (Quest from Limsa, gives 3 engineering manuals) in the Fisherman’s Guild. Hopefully everything in our Fishing Leveling Guide will help you push forward! Ah, back to the rod in Stormblood, I see? Well, you came to the right place.
