Thread: creature harvesting cap?
What is it you are asking -
the max stack size is 100k
no "bag" limits on how much you can take otherwise, as evidenced by my day of rage where I personally took out well in excess of 1000 rasps
harvesting should cap out at 125, with veghash, plus any racial modifiers, so the total amount is somewhat capped there
plus, certain crtitters only drop so much, a built in cap
hope someplace in there is an answer

So...if I have Tracking 4, +30 Creature Harvesting Food probably wouldn't help much?
I believe that the chef foods don't have caps. +30 harvesting food would boost you up quite a bit. But, for plain harvesting, just having Novice Scout is enough. A Novice Scout gets 57.5% as many resources as a Master Ranger. On +30 Veghash, a Novice Scout is getting 63% as much as a Master Ranger on the same. If you are doing this purely for harvesting, you are probably best off not going above hunting 4. If you have Master Ranger and use +30 Veghash, you geta 15% increase. Overall, the Veghash is useful. The Tracking 4 skill points are probably better spent on other skills right now.

P.S. The formula I use to calculate the percentages above is as follows: Harvest Amount = (1.0 + Creature_Harvesting_Mod / 100) * Base_Amount. So a Novice Scout has 1.15*Base_Amount harvested whereas a Master Ranger has 2.0*Base_Amount. 1.15/2.0=57.5%.
Yeah, sorry. What I meant to say is
Max skill in anything is said to be capped at 125. You may have buffs and skill tapes that take you above that, but the actual skilli is capped at 125. You may even see skills represented as being above that, but from what I understand, 125 is the cap. Sorry for any confusion.
And I too have gotten boocoo meat off some creatures, try rancors.
