The Giving Land Skill

[TheCutter]

Wanted to gauge people's thoughts on this skill. It seems to me that the penalty of reducing HQ chance to zero is enough without also adding 200GP on top of that. I have round about 800GP so I go to a node that I'm trying to farm, hit the Giving Land skill, down to 600GP and then use the Bountiful Yield skill each time - now down to 200 or 100 depending on the node. For one single node. So for each piece I harvest I get 2 shards/ crystals in return. From a normal node that's 8 shards/crystals.

The GP requirement of this skill is just a tad too much.

Thoughts?

I could see this skill being useful at the 10 or maybe even 50 GP mark. 200 is WAY too much for the little it offers.

That said, I do not regard the HQ->0% thing to be much of a cost at all. I routinely downgrade my mats to NQ just for the sake of storage. Keep it, leave it, I don’t see it as a penalty or a cost to the move.

I agree with the downgrading of stuff - I do it myself. So really the skill itself is redundant imo.

it's useless, I think square made it for people who think the already nerfed atherical reduction is too hard to figure out.
