    I don't know if it's a coincidence, but my Miqo'te retainer always seems to be the one who delivers fish (the Hyur is completely random).

    Can't trust dem cats with the most simple of errands -_-

    In fairness you pay then with little pieces of metal that do not appear predacious in nature. Probably a mix of iron and zinc. My retainers brought me 3 fish and a serving of sweet cream yesterday, being mi'qote myself it was appreciated.

    lol

    You need to be specific on which exploration you send your retainer to. Quick will always have random results. As for me, I always do the long venture ones and respective class always brought what they're related to. My miner retainer always brings me 1* mining stuff on rank 13 venture, & my archer always brings me hippogryph & coeurl stuff (which used for LTW/CUL 1* crafting stuff).

    How can any retainer carry a roof with him/her?

    How can a well geared DOL retainer spend (reads: waste) 18 hours for 2-3 items?

    Why does a Miner/Botanist need 40 minutes to harvest 30 shards while I can get 300 in the same time?

    Questions like these don't take you anwhere sadly. If you look for sense, better look somewhere else 'cause you won't find it in ventures lol. Accept what they bring you without questioning it. At least, everything they do doesn't cost you a dime.

    I love it how a lot of our quests are to go out and kill poachers, yet every time I send my thaum or glad out on an exploration they are poaching the hell out of courl's and bringing me back their meat. that's all i get is hq courl vender meat.
