Thread: How much gain is there between field biosci 4 and master ranger
10 units.
There isn't a huge difference in harvesting between 4 and Master. It makes a few units difference with larger critters - better to use veghash tho imo.
No I meant you would still only harvest 10 units.
Say you killed a rancor and got 230 units at bio 4 - at master you'd probably get 233 units. Its not a huge difference in the grand scheme of things.
You bump when it has dropped to the 2nd page, not when it's 5-10 threads down.
I don't know the exact answer but you can get it yourself. Hunt a couple dozen of the same creatures and note down what you harvest. Get Master Ranger, hunt the same creatures in the SAME area and note down what you harvest then. Calculate the average of both and then decide if you keep or drop Master Ranger. At the very least you'll have a badge to add to your list.
I can tell you upfront that the difference is very small on a single kill basis.
Master Ranger has a 30% harvest increase over Master Scout, if the calculations are linear you have a 24% increase over Master Scout at Tracking IV. 100 units would become a 105 units then. But there are certain pointers that suggest the calculation isn't (entirely) linear so the actual in-game difference can be greater or smaller.
thanks
and washel, i bumped to get it to top cuz i was going to bed

I would like to point out that harvesting in a group or alone changes those % yet again!! I have yet to figure out how it works but I know I get 100 units solo bit in a group of 2 it goes down 50%.
