The hell was square thinking with mining/botanist.

Greetings,

The development team is aware that the experience points awarded to botanists and miners is somewhat lower than what is awarded to fishers. As such, during the Hot Fix that will take place next week, we will be increasing the experience earned gained by these two classes.

Please. NO no no!!! Online game is a kind of game, where something can be reached by spending a lot of time. IT MUST BE SO!!!! The game is already booring on 50 level. Now, with this "fix" botanist and miner will reach 50 level for 1-2 weeks. Is it right? Dear Hvinire, if developers make this "fix" they compleatly destroy game interest and destroy ingame economy. Please, dear Hvinire. Dont let to make you fool. If fishers gain too much exp- it is FISHERS, who must be nerfed, but not UPing botanists and miners. Please, listen to my words!!!

All these people yelling... You guys do understand that earlier or later there will be a ton of miners and botanists anyways, right? Everything rapidly drops in price on the market boards the last two weeks like crazy. Instead of blocking people from enjoying the botanist and miner Job you should blame the crafting and armor system. Crafters are the persons who level pretty damn fast and don't really need all the materials you gather. Every damn piece of armor can be obtained from quests or dungeon so crafters AND gatherers don't get involved. People leveling botanist/miner faster now is not the biggest issue here.

It's the whole system that doesn't work at the moment. And really lower XP doesn't really prevent people from leveling miner or botanist. It might be a slower process, but at the and they gonna do it anyways.
