"You cast your line into the undiscovered fishing hole..."

I'm extremely thrilled to have expanded upon my selection of big fish charms. But there's a catch- not only are they randomized mystery pulls, but you gotta reel them in yourself!

Join me for a spot of magnet fishing at GATEway FATE! 🎣

Eleven different fish charms based on the following Final Fantasy XIV fish: Helicoprion, Problematicus, The Unconditional, Aquamaton, Sidereal Whale, Nepto Dragon, Sea Butterfly, Warden of the Seven Hues, Ealad Skaan, and Snowy Parexus.

So, I plan on creating my presentation over the next few days for my GATEwayFATE panel. As it'll be going over how to GPose and such I'd like to know what you'd like to see in it so I might better tailor it for folks.

Yeah why not. It's only like a 1 in 2.8k chance or something like that idk. I've had multiple 3-int 3-bite (but not all catch) windows. Only a matter of time.

Happy con crunch week everyone! We're scrambling with you in spirit as we test equipment and organize. Speaking of tests, we do have to leave some surprises for the show floor, but we can't help but let slip a little teaser that delights Ancients and Ascians alike!

Thanks @melshardae.bsky.social!

What might be wilder is that I'm not done. My goal wasn't a double SB window, it's a triple window.

*UPDATE: It has been confirmed that March 31, 2023 Fishcord member Bikonito got a double sea butterfly window. This would make my first instance on Nov 20, 2024 the know 2nd, but this remains the first and so far only known video recording of it happening.

Fruity Snacks🎣🔜GATEway FATE @fisherfruity.bsky.social · 2d

Here is the Double Sea Butterfly window from yesterday.

After chatting with other fishers, we've decided it is likely that my 2 Double Sea Butterfly windows are likely the 1st and 2nd documented times in #FFXIV it has happened due to the nature of the fisher kit and gear.

If you've tuned into any of @fisherfruity.bsky.social's streams, you may notice he's got a totally fin-tastic aquatic theme, courtesy of us here at ABT! The brief was to have colourful storybook quality to it and Fruity allowed us to shitpost with the text bubbles, which is always fun.

I'll have a short video out on tonight/tomorrow of the unedited window with some notes.

I'm testing a strat for int 3, so no massive video yet.

BUT!

Please look forward to a Fruity Snacks Rambling about a single little fish for an hour video in the future.
