No you shouldnt since the 20% bonus is based on being grouped with a scout. And last i knew my droids didnt have skillsets.

think I'd settle for the "nbnp" with a grouped droid.

Think you missed my point.

I'm in a group with other players. If I harvest myself, I'll get the 20% bonus for being grouped ( no need for a novice scout, that's only rangers for the 30 and 40% increase ).

That's fine.

Now same scenario, I'm in a group with other players, I get the 20% but if I tell my droid to harvest instead of me, maybe because I and my group are fighting something, there is no 20% bonus.

Now that doesn't add up. It has to be a bug.

Grouping only with my droid, no bonus, that's fine.

I reported this as a possible bug. No word yet. It seems they are not taking into account the new harvesting bonus for groups.

However -

DROIDS DO NOT COUNT AS A GROUP MEMBER FOR HARVESTING !!

Did you catch that??

They did, but you lost 40%. A lot of people whined, so the devs made it so droids and pets do not count as group members. Now y'all can live with that, as you got what you wanted. I say you, as I was the minority saying a group is a group...blah blah blah, but no one listened to me.

So you and a droid are technically one person, so no bonus. Two novice Rangers get a bonus off each other. Two Masters get massive harvest if grouped. A Ranger and anyone else gives a 30% or 40% bonus to the non ranger, and the Ranger gets a group bonus of 20%.

AGAIN - DROIDS DO NOT COUNT AS A GROUP, SO QUIT WHINING THEY DON'T.

this public service announcement was brought to you by me, who is now saying I told ya so, over and over.

Still JB

When you're in a group with your droid and other PCs, you should get the 20% bonus when the droid is harvesting. At the moment, we don't

I gotcha Occulus and you are correct.

You and droid (one) grouped with anyone else = 20% bonus for you, but at this time the droid is not harvesting off the new numbers. I reported that.

You and droid (one) = status quo - you get what you got before the new grouping bonuses were instituted.
