Well... I will test it further to see.... but even if your math is right, they still have been nerfed. They used to produce alot more per day.

Ever stop to think it is not a nerf if they were borken to begin with and they were fixed. example let say when you built a house you used the correct amount of ore then house gets made but 1/4thof that ore was returned to you. They fix the problem so now you use all the ore. This is not a nerf it is a correction. I know since I have been tracking them since mid july,All my mediums pull in 5.7K * % a day hasn't changed.


also, Maybe you had expermental harvestors. though I have never realyseen any that do anything better but I assume they are out there.


I know that harvestors in general have problems like I fill up 4 med with the exact same ammount of main and energy for 5 days to come back in 48 hours to find I still have4 1/2 daysmaint and 3 day of energy left.






The maint and power rates are different. I believe it's 60/hr on maint and 50/hr power. If you look on the status screen the maint rate is per 30 minutes and the power rate is per 60 minutes. I have no idea why they used different time segments. So if you put in say 2000 credits and power the different rates will cause the number to be different when you return.

Having maintained harvesters on two accounts, as well as having the use of harvesters from guildmates, Ican safely saythat there is little science in the amounts that harvesters collect, especially if a resource change is involved, or there has been a server outage. As this happens every day, it's difficult or impossible to tell if a nerf has occurred.


On the other hand, the fact that server outages happen every day is a lot more outrageous than a stealth nerf to harvesters.

perhaps there was an outage while i was offline and therefore my harvsesters mined less than I expected them too... I will still be examining it further... I will do by the hour test, rather than by the day.
