Thread: 2 scouts can harvest from the same creature?

I actually read the screen while logging in last night, and saw this quite interesting tip:


HARVESTING RESOURCES


Click and hold on a corpse to bring up a radial menu that includes the option "Harvest." Anyone can loot a fallen character of items and credits. A character with Scout skills can harvest meat, hide, or bone from a slain creature. Multiple scouts can each harvest a different resource from the same creature.


Emphasis is mine. I know for a fact that this is not how it works. Once a scout harvests from a creature, the harvest option never again shows up, for any other scout/ranger. WhatI am wondering, is this a bug, or an intended change, and that tip text is wrong/was never updated?

Part of the problem is that once you fail to harvest something, you can't harvest anything different from the same corpse. Like, oops, I accidentally hit /harvestbone on the kreetle, which translates into what in our virtual world? Slashing wildly at a critter I've harvested twenty-three thousand times before to get at the bones? I don't understand the problem with messing up and correcting to hide.

Guys,

This is one of my top priorities and I've identified it as the #4 thing that needs addressed among Scouts. Hopefully we'll have an answer from the Devs on this question shortly.
