[dev1039] How does this work?

[Leknaat]

Last night, I tried gathering for the first time since the patch.

I'm losing more items, and in a similar situation to TirionCrey where what I 'knew and expected' has turned into more of a crapshoot.

It's rather upsetting that SE hates gatherers so much. (the lower SP rewards, leve spots surrounded by aggressive mobs, +1/+2 items still clogging up our inventories, etc).

I'd seriously give up gathering if I didn't desperately need materials like gold sand, jade, fish, lac bugs, yew logs, faerie apples to support my crafting habit.
