To: FF14 Dev Team,

Found a new bug with the Favors system (Gathering) from patch 3.05:

When under the effect of a Favor (Scroll) for Gathering, if you attempt to gather when an Ephemeral Node spawns as well, the Favor's "Secret Node" never spawns.

I've tried 5 different Favor Scrolls in both Dravania Forelands and Dravania Hinterlands (during their Ephemeral Node spawn windows), and nothing spawns.

I noted that after the Ephemeral Node window expired, I finally got 1 Node to spawn in.

Seems like there is a potential conflict of Node Spawning?

Please fix this bug, it's really frustrating!

Thanks!

Time: 5:05 a.m. Server Time, Aug 1, 2015
Frequency: 100%
World name: Masamune
Character name: Kiara Silvermoon
NPC name: n/a
Monster name: n/a
Class/Level: Botanist / 50
Party or solo: Solo
In-game time: 2:35 p.m. Eorzea
Area and coordinates: Dravania Forelands (X:11, Y:31). (Dravania Hinterlands also has this issue during Ephemeral Node spawning.)

Steps:
1. Load up Final Fantasy XIV Heavensward Early Access DX11 Client.

2. Buy Matron's Favor for Dravania Forelands (Botanist) (or the Trader's Favor for Dravania Hinterlands (Miner))

3. Fly over to the Level 60 Gathering Nodes area during the Ephemeral Node window (8:00 a.m. Eorzea).

4. Use the Favor's Scroll.

5. Gather non-stop during the window with the Ephemeral Node.

Results: The nodes near the Ephemeral Node that spawn, never spawn the Favor "Secret Node" (I've asked fellow gatherers on my server and they have never seen the Favor Node spawn).
