Thread: harvest mod cap at 125?
In that case would I be able to harvest max as a trandhosian with 0030 ranger?
Would be 10(racial)+85(skill)+30(from vegash). Or could I get much more as 105 m ranger +10 trandh +30 vegash (dunno if this in any case would be 140 pr 145? or even 150 with fs box).
I wanna harvest as much as possible but 0030 ranger would allow me to get m brawler + m pike an nov medic.
Anyone know?
I have Master Ranger, +10 Trandoshan, and +32 (i think) from Veghash.
Also in my collection is a +100 Harvest droid, but he got a bad habbit
of oiling up the wheels and head for a solo spin from time to time so
theres more anoyance with him than without.
I also plan on the +5 FS when the time comes, but if it caps, im not sure
i will bother.... Guess we need to wait for the experts to reply.

- A harvest droid of +115 increases your harvesting skill by 15%. Therefore, a +100 droid is useless.
- Veghash at +32 will provide a 32% increase to your base harvesting skill.
I am not sure of any cap in place so someone else can step in there. As far as I know, all harvesting skill modifiers work and stack, so I don't worry about hitting a 'cap'

This is common error that I see posted a lot on this forum. The harvest bonus of a droid is NOT just a straight percentage of your own harvest bonus. I regularly use a +76 harvest droid which ALWAYS harvestMORE than me (Master Ranger). I have actually tested harvesting with a +116 droid and I harvested no more than when using my +76 droid, so I believe there may be a cap to the benefit a droid can give, which I believe is also related to your own harvest bonus.
Also, though most people recommend *not* grouping with your droid, I tend to do the opposite. This is mainly due to the increase in XP you get for being grouped, now that I am trading it in regulary...

Very interesting. Thanks for the info... I stand corrected.

For anyone shopping for a Harvest droid, try to get at least 1 combat module in it. Then it will not run away when it gets attacked. My friend is constatly searching everywhere for that silly droid of his.
Me, i do it the old fashioned way.
I went for a trap module instead, if he starts to leg it I just hit my launchtrap marco and he stops in his tracks to fire a p-dart at my current target - as long as I'm quick enough to notice him fleeing!
