what do you guys feel about about this?
Is this specifically about Quick Ventures or something?
Because mine have a plethora of options from level 1-60 to farm for me.
I think quick ventures have access to everything in the game, including 1.0 items that are no longer obtainable. Maybe not the token gear though.

"Disciple of War/Magic retainer item level perks
We've received feedback from players requesting to increase the amount of items that Disciple of War/Magic retainers can earn from ventures based on their item level. The dev. team will consider increasing the amount of items which can be yielded moving forward."
Yeah I think the author is talking about the amount of items obtained on specific 1-token missions, like "fetch me ice shards / peiste skins / chestnut logs / ..."
I have the same feeling even if it increases a bit (or time reduces) with the retainer level ^^
Yes and while they are at it please have retainers not bring back housing items. I don't need random roofs, walls, etc.
Both of mine brought me something that, I guess, is from 1.0: Company Issued Expectorant. I'm not quite sure what it does, since it's Market Prohibited, Unique, and Untradeable, but by the description it sounds like it either eliminates or reduces Weakness.
The Field Exploration rewards have felt off ever since Heavensward to me. In ARR, the 18-hour ventures usually had unique items, like minions, at each "tier," but that doesn't seem to be the case for the highest tier right now at least.
I send my retainer to gather crystals 30 in one hour is low I can go myself and gather like 300 crystals in a hour everything needs to be increased
Mine bring back 30 crystals or 60 shards every 40 minutes. During that 40 minutes, I can queue for dungeons, harvest other things, craft, do gathering favors, or any number of other things that doesn't involve farming crystals and I still get 90 crystals/180 shards every 40 minutes by sending 3 retainers out after them. Heck, I can send them then go afk and watch TV and send them out again during a commercial. Or I can go farm crystals myself and send my retainers out after them at the same time and get that many more (but seriously, farming crystals is pretty soul-crushing work; my mining retainers are lalafell so they have no souls to crush).
The point isn't to trivialize gathering them yourself, but rather to give you an alternative.
Yeah, I've gotten that little guy before, too. But he's available in multiple lower tiers, too, so that's hardly a perk for the current highest tier one. I know one of the two tiers before this one could drop Iron Giant Scraps for the minion, but as far as I've been able to tell that's not carried over to the new one.
I have a more particular bone to pick with the retainer ventures. Why do they keep raising the bar for rare item gathering?
Items which my retainer would normally bring back without many issues (rare dyes, special gear etc) instantly stop whenever an update comes. The ilvl for rare items seems to increase along with the maximum item level. I get that my retainers shouldn't be bringing back any of the new top-tier stuff, but why do they also stop finding the stuff they've had no issues finding in the previous update.
Several updates later, I'm convinced this is the case as I've encountered this issue with every major patch.
