    Gathering is WAYYY to easy.

    I would like to complain about gathering. Before the update I was a level 49 miner and total I collected about 80 mythril ores. After the update I was able to collect about 80 ores in 40 minutes. Colbalt ores are extremely easy to mine as well. It's a shame, I could probably get 99 colbalt ores in about 30 minutes. The price of the ore is going to crash, as well as any of the new "high level gear". Doesn't SE believe in "rare" ore anymore? Why can't we have elite stuff, seriously? I can mine cobalt ore just as easy as copper ore as a lvl 50 miner. I don't get why it has to be that way. There is going to be more cobalt ore on the market than copper ore, because you skillup off it for sooo long. Mythril ore is also devastated now. Why don't you just have us mine insect wings. I seriously hate to rant, but this needs like emergency maintance, and it's going to already be too late.

    How can a high lvl crafter put a decent/high pricetag on colbalt gears/weapons when tomorrow the price of colbalt ore is probably going to be 1k. An ingot in no way should ever cost more than 5k after a day or so Whoop whoop. GSM, ARM, BSM all are going to make cheap gears now. I dont even wanna know about woodworking.

    I guess the days of getting excited because you obtained something rare is gone... Would it be so hard to adjust drop rates better? Like ore's like khorma ore in 11? 1% or something like that.

    Gear is now expendable. It's not like there's a finite market for it. With materia, there's going to be a need for a larger volume of items.

    Looks like the randomness of the second phase is either removed or that the "stats" to get a perfect aim has been lowered.

    this is probably due to the fact that getting 40 ore in an 30 minutes is the same as getting 12 in 30 minutes before patch since all you need is 12 ores to make 40 nuggets which is its equivilient, which was easily done anyway

    I am pleased with gathering now. I was actually gathering on BTN last night and actually felt like I was accomplishing something.
