Coral Fragments

Re: Coral Fragments

Hi i've had no luck with fishing coral in Onzozo, (or anywhere else for that matter) and i'm wondering if i can get some more details. where in onzozo do you fish? can i get some coordinates? is it possible that because my fishing skill is only 1 that i dont have the stamina to pull them in? can someone give me a good fishing macro to aid me in my quest for fame money and bonecrafting skill. I am a lvl 55 mnk. and am fishing w/ a composite rod and little worms. i have died more times than i care to discuss so i am at this point needing to make this work because i've invested about 50k into this and fully intend to use these to both fund and level my bonecrafting. PLEASE HELP

Re: Coral Fragments

1) This thread is over 7 months old. There have been patches affecting what items can be fished up and where. That may be part of the issue. Though, I'm not sure if coral fishing was affected or not.

2) There are no 'macros' for fishing. The only command you use is /fish. Actually pulling in the fish or item is up to you. Anything more automated then that is called a bot, which can get you banned.

3) You are fishing at level 1 in a zone where you can pull up mobs. With an un-levelled fishing skill, you're most likely not proficient enough yet at reading the indicators in order to avoid pulling up a mob. I would recommend reading through the fishing section of the wiki.

Re: Coral Fragments

Fishing macros? Here you go.

Macro "Fish":
/fish

Macro "FishAgain":
/wait 2
/fish

That's it. You can probably not even use the first fish macro. Just use the FishAgain one. If you start getting "You must wait longer" messages with the FishAgain macro, it means you're hitting one of those fatigue thresholds, and may want to change the 2 to 3 or 4.

Re: Coral Fragments

Also, wiki lists LoO as 'Extremely Rare' for Coral Fragments. Try SSG or DoR

Re: Coral Fragments

RMTs were botting coral fragments in LoO. Therefore SE 'adjusted' the rate that they're fished up there. They've never been easy to get, but were artificially cheap for a VERY long time (and are becoming artificially cheap again) because of RMT botters.

If you're looking for an alternative to them I think you can get by making dragon masks or other peices of the dragoon JSE armor. If you can find an alchemist that's trying to make cursed gear out of the dragon gear they may pay you (or at least defray your costs) to make them gear.

Re: Coral Fragments

I like to add something to my fishing macro. Whether I am using bait or lures I adjust each time depending on what I am trying to catch.

/equip ranged "minnow"
/wait 1
/fish

So if I lost my lure, or ran out of bait it automatically loads up another stack or lure for me and I save time, and can get right back to fishing.

Btw, it should be ammo slot. Fishing rods go in the ranged slot. Lures, rigs and bait go in the ammo slot.

I tried that with Insect Paste a long time ago. But I got annoyed at seeing a red error message about not being able to carry out the command (probably had something to do with trying to equip a slot with an item that was considered already equipped, even though it was in that slot).

I suppose you can get around this with...

/equip ammo
/equip ammo "Minnow"
/wait 1
/fish
