Why not gather some crystals instead?As someone else pointed out, over half the locations are garbage. I npc over half of what I gather because there's no market for 8 stacks of cow bitter. Honestly I'd be mostly appeased if they tripled the yield and changed the time to 5 minutes. The amount of items I get or the fact I have to use gathering tokens isn't even the main issue for me. It's the 11 hours doing favors. Shorten it to 3-4 and I can tolerate doing half an hour a day gathering.
Spiritbonding. Crystals are too low to SB. I was doing crystals for awhile but I'm not particularly low on crystals so it didn't feel very productive. Spiritbonding has been a nice bonus to doing favors as I can bond a set of crafting accessories every 2 or 3 favors. That said, it doesn't do much to mitigate the mind numbing grind of the whole affair.
Any news on patch notes today?
You'll know when we know....

I still havent had my bugged seals reset to 0. I'm getting really upset. I've sent 3 tickets already.
Square, can we have an OCE fanfest now?
well practically no change to fishing. I logged in, took a look at the blue/red script rewards and logged back out again. Got better things to do.
Well, Chysal Green went from 8 red scripts to 12...
12 is still more than 8.

It might not look impressive in raw numbers, but that's a 50% increase. If you only gather adamantite and chysal twice an hour and average, let's say, twelve items per hour, that's a boost from 96 to 144 red scrips per hour. You go from capping in a about four and a half hours to capping in three. Of course, the biggest problem with scrips was never really making the cap...
The problem is and was the favor gathering and caps, from my pov this patch has been almost no help at all to the real problems.
