It just dawned on me that CL has possibly/probably changed in the CU (I am still not sure what is going on with the new Con system). We need to make sure that harvesting makes sense and doesn't get unintentionally nerfed. This is a problem since CL determines the harvest amount, and in changing the CL, the harvest amounts might go screwy on us.
I was only killing low level stuff last night, and didn't notice anything wrong, but it is difficult to tell when your harvests are only 3-5 units.

And as a side-bar to this, Calc, I'm also concerned about the harvest per minute (HPM). By making it MUCH harder for us to kill creatures, they are effectively making it MUCH harder for us to harvest reasonable sized stacks as well. Now, I'm not saying that running around Rancor Valley and getting 30k in 1hr is realistic or expected post CU, but I also want to be able to buy myself a weapon and armour post CU, which I expect to be able to finance through harvesting.

I didnt mind much different bth. Its the same amounts ive been harvesting on TC for weeks as a total noob but perhaps it may stay that was as we progress. Definalty keep an eye out for it, part of the reason theres the hunting department thread here.

I can tell you right now that our (and everyone's) HPM will go down. We can certainly try to have the devs raise our harveting mods again, but I don't expect that to happen.

. I can move this in there, if you like.

Calc! You're a bothan?
And after all you've done for the l3xards... a bothan.

hehe no mate, its fine
Just saying its been thought about but yeah, after our experiences last night, we need to focus some testing on it. Too bad the xp is bugged so its ages to level.

I figured that was the most shocking thing I could do.
