    We just wanted to let you know that relying on your retainer alone to gather for you isn't going to cover all of your gathering needs. We are planning this system very carefully to ensure it does not destroy any sort of economic balance so you can rest easy in that regard.

    Yep just like i said it would Gather enough / what you really need. Like i said so many time in this topic it would get you junk and maybe rare items but at least now we have a dev to make everyone clam down.

    I think a few simple things can balance this:

    1) charge a small fee
    2) the retainer isn't avialable for other purposes while gathering
    3) player must furnish the gathering tools
    4) keep the amount of items obtainable to a reaosnable level (maybe based on the retainer level)

    Ok folks, feedback during beta is going to be essential on this topic.
