Thread: simple question about the new harvesting..
If this was going to maintain the same ammount of hids/bone/meat in the world, why do 200 hides now sell for 3k? Why can I fit the entire galaxy of hides for sale at the bazaar in 3 screens?
The cut back did not work. Hides and bone are now a rare comodity. I know as a ranger, I refuse to sell any at all anymore because I need all I can get.
And where are these illusive groups that all harvest and let one person take all the harvested goods? I have NEVER seen such a thing. Each person walks away with a few measley hides that may have added up to more than was looted before, but they sure arent sharing.
please take another look at this and at actual numbers across more than just my server. If these numbers from kettemoor hold true across all galaxies, then please fix this ASAP.
I am still gettinga decent amount of hides and meat from my kills, and selling them both on the bazaar and in private. Herbie meat is going to the stim maker person (Mandy you make the best stuff) and the hides go to Alli, master tailor to the stars. (shamless plug) If it 's not a herbivore, I take the hide, it's simple.
I really honestly and truly am not seeing that much of a difference in my harvesting, other than better weapons make it go quicker. I shoot anything I know will give a decent harvest, which is anything over 5 units mainly...lol... why be picky...20 little animals, one big one...100 is 100.
I have noticed that since the scouts/rangers now need hides for camo kits and the entire camp line, hide is becoming harder to find for sale. Notice, not harder to get, harder to find for sale, but that's my opine. I keep maybe 5 camps, mixed, in my pack, and pop em as needed, one lil one, 3 field bases and one HTFB. I make sure that as I wander, I have enough resources on me to craft a replacement.

truly having fun, making credits, and laffing at the dude who got hit with a 1375 LLC blast
Av,
You didn't give me a chance to respond.
The reason is that there's an apparent bug (read Holo's post on the Scout forum - not for what it says, but for what it doesn't say) that is causing an overall reduction in the amounts we can harvest.
Once that's fixed and we give it a little time, I'll be able to argue more effectively your points here.
Right now, I can't, because the whole harvesting system has been thrown out of whack by this apparent bug.

I say keep them rare as we can... make them WORTH sometime... make them EXPENSIVE and hard to get. Rangers can harvest mroe and thus we can actually make money in this profession
umm genious.. make them expensive will just trickle down to us. You make hides outrageous, you make armor outrageous. You make meat outrageous.. try to get a heal
Love people with good foresite.
The problem is, it seems that we can't harvest better than a novice scout anymore.... That means that we are competing against everyone who spent 100 credits to learn scouting skills. And we're on an even footing as far as harvesting goes. That doesn't exactly help us out.
