Favors are great now

[Nomad-phx]

Cause gathering with a purpose is far less boring than mindless node depletion. 15 minutes before was 30% per accessory, as opposed to the 10% from 1/3 the time. Plus the 65 favors in my inventory was supposed to keep me occupied till 3.1, ain't happening now lol. Before I was getting 0-8 items per favor so I too have experience bad ones, but there was the possibility for up to 10 before in that 15 min, what's the highest possible number now? 6-7?

Troll alert? Please tell me you're not seriously complaining about the fact that the amount of time necessary to complete content has been reduced.
I already gave you an alternative if you want to keep grinding that long. Pretend each favor is 15 minutes long and quietly muse about the weird RNG that keeps giving you all the procs in the first 5 minutes. Regarding the comment that it's boring to deplete nodes for its own sake: If you were doing something because you felt that you had do and you don't want to do it when you don't feel that you have to, then it wasn't worth doing in the first place.

The maximum possible number of concealed nodes is equal to the number of nodes you can deplete during the favor duration. That number has been reduced, but it's also a lot more likely that you'll get there. It's also largely irrelevant if your plan is to do a lot of favors. What matters is the average number you get. From the sound of that, they boosted that slightly by adding a +300% modifier to a 1/3 duration, which should nicely offset the tiny reduction in expected return from the fact that the maximum possible is lower.
