So now that fatigue is going away....what about Gathering Fatigue?

[weeble]

agree that biggest problem is that breaks give half the sp and slows down progress so much, but i do say rmt be dammed this isn't helping with it, they just can use multiple accounts switching off where as the normal person only has 1 account.

they should of figured out a better way to do this, when i finally make space to go harvesting, i want to do it all day long not for just few hours. i don't want to waist an hour b4 going to gather, spend anima and then be done with it so quickly, i like long long spurts.

only suggestion i have and is what i doing at moment, i botany and mine at same time, 2tree and 1 mining and then switch 1tree and 2mining nodes till i am breaking stuff, then i switch to fishing, then by that time i can go back to the mining and botany. basically i start 3-4hrs b4 i know i going to bed so i fatigue, go sleep then when i log back in i can pick up again unfatigued, then switch to the fishing. works well this way if want to keep gathering all day.

exactly, the rmt aren't the ones being affected by this. it is the legit players.

Indeed, gathering fatigue is very frustrating. Similar to surplus, sometimes you really wanna dedicate a lot of time to one thing and not have the game try to prevent you from doing that.

I'm at one of those moments right now with a gathering class where I just got to a good spot to move up to the next grade and get that good SP. Already in surplus fatigue and would push through that for a while, but I can't even do that because of gathering fatigue creeping in. I don't want to go do other stuff, I want to level that class!

RAGE!

I really hope SE reconsiders their decision on gathering fatigue.

I totally understand the need to control the amount of materials entering the economy. However, this is keeping people from playing how they want to play which is never a good thing, especially for a game that is literally teetering on the precipice of oblivion. They can control the items without nullifying xp to almost nothing for harvesters.

I know at least one of my harvester classes would be higher if this gathering fatigue weren't in place but, as it is, it is far too frustrating. Props to the full time harvesters that deal with this issue constantly.

With the changes being introduced in patch 1.18, our Disciple of the Land friends will be able to receive SP as a reward for completing levequests. In addition to that, the amount of SP obtained with each gather will also be increased.

Awesome! Thanks for the info.

Well at least that's better. Not the best but much better.

Thanks, Bayohne. That's something, at least.

This is a great step in the right direction. It'll be very much worth seeing whether the SP you get when you damage an item is increased significantly as well. If the SP/hr is not atrocious while suffering gather fatigue, I would be willing to grind through it for sure. I used to grind in -50% fatigue on combat classes as long as it was still >10K/hr.

Look forward to the changes, DoL levelling is too slow as it is now
