Fishing is too powerful

KuroMS Suggestions discussion with 4 posts about Fishing is too powerful.

There should be no reason people should be able to afk fish and be competitive with active players farming in regards to Perfect Pitch farming. Not to mention this is so easily abusable via multi-clienting. Absolutely nothing is stopping people from multi-clienting and farming thousands of Perfect Pitch overnight x however many people could/will do this. I think the Perfect Pitch generation should be nerfed or level gate locked at certain breakpoints. i.e. Not being able to fish until level 150 (very feasible takes less than a day to do), and instead of 10% of your level maybe halve that and do 5% instead?

Or maybe add a weekly limit of hours you're able to fish so people don't become reliant on it and it doesn't replace the ACTUAL gameplay/grind loop

You do have to know actual gameplay/grind loop is not for everyone. Even OSMS not everyone focus on dominating all bosses, being able to chill in fm while also gaining benefits is what social OSMS is about. I'd like to think the uptime of number of players online now is due to this fishing feature, you set a limit on this then the players will just go offline after the limit, since not everyone's a no life grinder for end game content. The same goes for "nerfing" this from the original. A few points I'd agree with, - allowing a minimum level to fish makes sense. - multi-client should not be allowed to abuse this feature.

Fishing is fine as it is, why should this game be a sweaty one? already people are macro afking in LHC for the PPL2PASS mentality, hence the botcheck that was introduce and people are still doing it.allow a catchup system for casual players, or it would be R> Leechers for VL/Emp etc etc etc.
