Fishing profiles

[stewiethecat]

Awesome job with the fishing utility...
Is there any way i can use the profile creator to make my guy move after fishing spots becomes unavailable?
Messed around with it for a while, but was unable to figure this out.

What do you mean unavailable? Standing there too long?

yes, "The fish sense something amiss" from when you stand fishing at a spot for to long.

Add more then one hotspot and it will travel between them preventing this.

This also seems to be something server side as well. Moving between two hotspots will prevent this for a while, but each zone seems to have a maximum amount you can fish within a certain time. I used to have to log out of the game completely and back in to continue cloud fishing after a certain amount of time.

Haven't noticed this, as long as I've used 3 or more hotspots spread out I havent had any issues.

How long have you let it run between the hotspots? I use fishing on a different account to spiritbind gear with, and switch between a few spots.. after a few hours I get the error about something amist, and no matter how many places i try to fish within the same zone I will continue getting the error. (this was before RB came out). Used to I could just log out and back in and continue fishing the same 2-3 hotspots over and over.. but before patch 2.1 they seemed to have ninja'ed something in to prevent that. I'm not too sure what the requirement is now when you have capped out a zones fishing limit.

Has anyone else noticed this?

I've fished for about 3 hours without issue.

I have already ran across this issue. After a while I have to move zones to continue fishing. The times seem to be random to prevent botting...

Some times I must move zones within 30 mins,, other times it can be 5+ hours.
