Gathering problem has to be sorted out soon.

The Major problems with having someone join and only do their gathering

-They get to roll on all loot gathered by player, but player do not get to roll on their loot. (except the very few treasure chests they spawn)


-The Real Issue is that When the whole group isn't participating on a S or V rank, there s a good possibility that the group will not get credit, and won't get the gold chest drop.
Which is the main reason why people are fighting in there in the first place.
Once you get your aethers, and then one guy decides its time to gather for the whole run, your group is basically SOL.

You can't make them join the fight, only ask. You can't kick and request new person.

1 person has the power to ruin the run for 7 people.
This is a problem.

This should have been resolved before the launch.
Especially considering the long wait timer.


One person in such a large group should not be able to ruin a run for an entire group.

Please consider fixing this ASAP.

I don't think gold chest is based off participation, pretty sure it's random like every thing in the floating isles of random. My group had killed things by our selves and still aren't gaurenteed a gold chest every time. This was in hard.

Gathering Gauge. Kill Mobs Rank 1-5 to Star and your Gathering Gauge fills up as you take part in fighting mobs, the amount you gauge fills up is based on how much work you put into the fight with every 100% allowing you to gather from 1 node. You can fill the gauge up to 1k% allowing you to gather from 10 nodes, when you run out, go back to fighting, rinse repeat. This would encourage gatherers to fight so that they can earn the ability to gather and thus serve a limitation to just being able to gather freely with no restrictions.
