We will see if it is as good as advertised... thought you might like to know what should be in Patch 8.

I assume we still can't "double-harvest" using the droid, so was this really a necessary adjustment?
I have seen at least a couple requests for this, and it doesn't hurt anything. I wonder if it will be possible to have it go to the players inventory regardless of whether the droid is full.

I'm confused. Why is this something to cheer about?
It helps anyone with a BE'd pet (or CH), novice scout, and any wpn proffession (basic or elite) to even harvest more now. I don't see it as helping the Rangers at all - Or am I missing something?

It does not help anyone get any extra harvest. It basically allows you to group with your pets without a penalty. So no, this does not really change anyhting related to Rangers per se. It only affects Rangers ( and Scouts) with pets.
I rarely hunt with pets, and won't be using the new droid.
No cheers here, this is a great big fat whoop de freaking doo.... altho it may help the lower level scouts its pretty well useless to the normal Ranger
However, if they can change the harvesting limits with pets - why can't they up the freaking limits
Once again, stuff we didn't ask for - useless for the most part - and camoflaged as fixes - or whatever they wanna call them
my one finger salute to the devs is still flying ..!.,
and stil on strike too

I'd prefer having it in my inventory at all times - hard to know how much you have on the run if you have to look in your droid =)
I feel the same way, or having to look for your droid when on the run

In all fairness that is the removal of the group penalty, not an increased mod.

I heard tales of that as well. It sounds like a good deal.

Well, just buy a droid with harvest module and without storage module.
You can have 5 droids in datapad, and you can have whatever modules you want in it.
