@nika They're actually pretty cheap on the AH, so I guess they're not all that rare. Plus that's maybe the 4th one total I've gotten. I've been hunting for a loooong time...

I'm going to ping myself here so I can find it again when I go scavenging tomorrow.

Entered data for today. Depending on tomorrow's weather I might not be able to go to the library and even log in for tomorrow. Haha. I'm still having internet connection problems and I can only log in when I go the library.

@nika Oh, I totally started doing this sort of thing myself a few days ago. I'm currently collecting data on level 25 Fishing in the Fire region. If you curious on my progress/data, you can see it [url=https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1gGq1DyykgWwVMso1qN3o_ZUeREi0nmA90DlWnYypnZg/edit?usp=sharing][b]HERE[/b][/url] But I'm taking a bit of different approach, so I don't know if my data will be helpful to you. Instead of total number of a particular item gathered, I am counting Just the number of times an item appears. For instance, if my turn was: "Fissure crawdad (4), Fissure Crawdad (2),Sun Baked Oysters (3)", Fissure Crawdad is counted twice and Sun Baked Oysters only once. I don't even bother recording the # of items. The following admin comments kind of explains why I am doing it this way: [quote]In your example, at level 25 both clover and Maiden's Blush would have the same drop rate and stack size chances.[/quote] This seems to suggest that stack size is rolled separately from drop rate. So wouldn't recording the # of stacks instead of # of items be more useful in gauging the rarity of an item? Or to put it another way, wouldn't know [i] how many times an item appears[/i] more useful than [i] how many items you gather overall[/i]? I feel like rolling 5 stacks of 1 Fissure Crawdad over 5 turns, would suggest a different rarity than 1 stack of 5 over 5 turns, even through the total number of items gathered is the same. What do you think? Then again, is there a difference between following a trail of gold coins vs. happening upon a giant pile of treasure? I don't know.
