Profession: Scout/ Ranger

* Increased amount of hides from some harvested creatures.
* Fixed harvesting indoors.


Hmm, okay on the first, I guess (frankly I'm past caring) but on the second, what? Harvesting indoors? Does that mean in dungeons or was there some surreal bug that allowed you to reclaim the organics from your furniture?

The one unit we get when harvesting in dungeons?


Or can I harvest the looted clothing I find?

The REAL reason for the harvesting creatures indoors issue

cynical mode = true sarcasm = true

I believe the harvesting indoors feature has been done to nerf the shadowy practice known as Harvest Club (HC).

Basically, you get your BE Alt/Fellow BE Guildy to meekly AFK produce and release level 10 pets and then stand there, while the Ranger kills and harvests them for insane profit. This is best done on a guildhall roof. It works even better if you group 20 MBH's MBE's and a doctor to rez the pets, as the Ranger then also gets the group hunting bonus.

PLEASE NOTE: To my knowledge, this does not happen in game, I am simply being cynical this morning

Actually I noticed Saturday that harvesting had been increased.


I was running around and checking to see how hard a time I would have harvesting wooly hide post CU.


I went up to the graveyard to find a bantha.


When I killed the bantha I harvested 300+ wooly from it and went into shock used to getting around 50-60.

Profession A - grumble grumble - reaction: bump up the numbers
Profession B - grumble grumble - reaction: bump up the numbers
Profession C - grumble grumble - reaction: bump up the numbers


= Composite suits with 110% resist and requiring 2mil hides to produce.


As a developer myself, it seems the balance part of the CU was not thought out in depth before development (even tho there are many good posts on doing just that). Tweeking the game dynamics now result in the numbers we are seeing. Of course it could just be another bug, LOL.


Harvesting indoors = Picking boogies?

The first rule about Harvest Club is, we do NOT talk about Harvest Club. /smirk

300 units from a bantha?

I guess the new official size of ahide is the demensions of a piece of toilet paper.

Well it takes 400 units to make a pair of whinged ha****ts, so that means a dancers butt is 1 1/3 the size of a bantha?
