The hell was square thinking with mining/botanist.

Is anyone noticing higher experience on gathering classes? My miner is only level 14 right now so maybe it's too low to notice the difference and my BOT is 50 so I don't get experience so it's hard to tell.

You should notice it if you do fieldcraft levequests those seem like a 200% buff per turn in. But your right in that until you get higher in level you'll not notice as you need to little experience per level in comparison to the upper levels, hell even in the mid low 20s it started to feel like a huge grind without leve's.
