Thread: DEVS and all: This is a fundamental problem with the new harvesting system.
Sue,
Holo did say that, but it's taken out of context.
What he meant is that no one should be able to kill a "red" conned creature, EVEN when they are grouped with pets. Not that they consider grouping with pets to be you "soloing" for our purposes.

Suenr, where did you get this quote?
Holocron posted this in another thread. It is quoted in its entirety and unedited except for two smiley faces that were deleted in my cutting and pasting process. Sorry, Holo.

OK, I investigated a bit more, thanks to the fact that GreenMarine is a fool who came into the office during his vacation.
He says that getting hit with the reduction when grouped with a pet is a bug, and that he'll fix it shortly.
He also says that the solo results were decreased a bit, but not by 50%,
to offset the fact that now you can now get resources in a group, which means there are a lot more resources in the world.
I'll point him to this thread so that he can comment further--just be aware that he IS on vacation, so he may take a while.
