I'm trying to level my alchemy above 155 right now, and that requires these oily blackmouth fish. However, I can't seem to find a single node. I've wandered all around the coast of Westfall, the lake Loch Modan, and Dark Shore a couple of times. Not a single school. Do these spawn? If they do, are they taken immediately by Chinese farmers or something?

Ah. I wonder where I'm supposed to get these oily blackmouth fish at then. I've found firefin snappers at the docks of Menethil Harbor, but only firefins. :c

So, I've walked up and down the Darkshore coast twice now. I have not seen a single other player and I still did not find a single pool of oily blackmouth fish. Are you for sure that the pools actually exist on Nighthaven?

Same problem. Stuck at "connecting" for a couple seconds then "disconnected from server". Rip.
