Gathering Update
Posted: Wed Feb 10, 2021 5:52 pm
Hello Everyone!
Starting at reset tomorrow there will be a soft cap system going in for gathering. This system is designed to allow us to allow you to gather as much as you want with little downtime, but also control the amount of items going into the game. So, what does this all mean? This means that starting at reset each type of gathering node, be it foraging or mining, will have its own individual gathering speed (time between gather attempts) and its own soft cap (the amount you can gather before the game begins limiting you).
For example:
Tim mines Quartz every 5 minutes.
Quartz can be mined 200 times a day before the game limits experience and drops.
Tim reaches 200 Quartz nodes mined.
Tim now receives only 20% of the materials drop rate.
Tim now receives 80% less chance of leveling off the node.
This should allow you to continue mining and foraging as much as you want without flooding the game with gathering regents!
