Favor got worse or better?

[Fortuna]

So .... I would usually get between 18-24 Foxgloves per set of favors(5 pages), but I just did did one set and came out with only 12 foxgloves. Hoping it was just RNG messing around with me I attempted once again, the second set only ended up yielding me 11 foxgloves total. that around 18 foxgloves less than I would usually get... so my question is, is the favor system broken? because I can only heard complains left and right, coming from gathering/crafting LS.

So how your gathering coming along? post your number guys.

it's the same, just i take 3 times less time to do same.
it will just drop the price of these items at market board.
Good or not ? buyers will think : yes

74 bladeleaves out of 20 favors, average 3.7/favor. More or less the same rate as before, just in 1/3 of the time. Doesn't help crafters any but it's certainly nice on the gathering side.

I tested once again with two sets. First set yield me 14 foxgloves. second once yield me 15. I still find it unbalanced.

It has not changed at all. RNG is RNG. I did 10 favors before and averaged 3 foxgloves per. now im getting 6-7 per on my latest attempts.

Opposite results? No. RNG.

It is better than it was. No-one can really say different unless trolling.

You might gain same amount from those individual favors but you save a hell of a lot of time gaining them.

Its a double edge blade.
It can be either really good or really bad.
You'll often be either on a good streak.
Getting 5-8 conc. node spawns or
Be on a badstreak
Getting 0-2 conc. node spawns

You can also get bombarded with +1 or +2 gathering attempt nodes that waste ur time lol.
Depends on ur stats apparently.

But imo its a good update cuz IM NOT SPENDING MORE THAN HALF MY DAY PRESSING THE X BUTTON. (10hrs + gathering)

A lot of people complained the time required excluded them from participating in favour gathering. That problem should be fixed. If those excluded people start gathering then more items will be on the market. If not then we will still have a problem.

They are still as RNG as they were before. 2 Favors on a track I never farmed before yielded me 5 and 4 materials respectively.
Whereas 2 favors in a track I've done extensively in the past, yielded me 1 and 3.
In the case of the 3, the very last node I mined before the timer ran out gave me one.

Also the second track had literally half the nodes with +1 or +2 attempts. Much fun, that.

Personally, the only issue for me was the fact that 15 minutes was WAY TOO LONG when getting 45 of these per week intentionally. The numbers we get are fine. The only potential I see (and the need to maybe increase to six minutes) is you REALLY need to haul it now. Outside that, it's much better.
