Prime Roots

[xenofur]

when they say "it's being looked into" it means they have sent it to the devs as a bug report and haven't gotten an answer yet, so in fact, we have no clue if it is a bug or not
also make sure you are indeed talking to a bug when you choose to believe him, gms are trained csr personnel, and guides are volunteers and as such do not have access to the same informations as gms and might make mistakes

I thought I was talking to a bug once. It turned out I was wrong. It was a giraffe.

facts:
sources have two ways to prevent players from harvesting them
1. it can be exhausted, this does not mean there are no more materials there, it simply means you cannot harvest from it, it's an ON/OFF-switch, triggered by using up the life of the source. no source pops up
2. the number of materials in it can run out, this number get's generated randomly on each prospecting action. if it runs out the source is still alive but is simply empty.

Additional the Kami tolerance might drop to zero, but as it is now, not very likely in the prime roots.

This strikes me as odd, as so many others have posted stating the exact opposite, people who harvest there on a daily basis and see how weather does make a difference.

I hve spoken to a few who have stated same as I.

True, a bug is a bug, when in fact its a bug, but currently, everything stated about the empty noted is based on pure oppinion, I only say this because so many people have stated that the nodes to replenish, some slow, some fast, and some change as per weather.

Hmm then I guess GM's base their facts off of opinions then.

The only fact on prime roots is what was posted for patch notes, that is not opinion, that is the driving factor on how the Prime Roots works today.

This is probably another reason why there ignoring this, because its frankly not an issue to them right now.

They may review it in the future to change how nodes are avaliable, but they have other things there concentrating on.

It doesn't change the fact that it should be fixed and the time it has been taking is not reasonable.

And to add to this, I didn't start this to get into a debate and really I fail to understand why you have turned it into one. If you think I am wrong, fine. Whatever. I don't care. I posted this because I wanted Nevrax, not you, but Nevrax to know the people having problems with this are not happy and we want it fixed.

I was not the first to report this bug. They know it's a bug and have confirmed it. When the GM found out about the level thing that wasn't apparently supposed to be in place, they didn't say oh yeah that's a bug, they said they would make note of it and report it.

I just reported empty sources in Abyss of Ichor. GM acknowledges this as a issue that "is being look into at this time". Same reply I got back when the bug first showed up. This IS a bug, at least in the PR areas that aren't supposed to be PvP. At one time they talked about PvP PR areas having this happen and that was going to be by design so people could fight over / guard sources. I'm very disappointed it wasn't fixed in today's patch.

Thank you Haddo.

When you get a message that your quality is not high enough, that means the source is at supreme and you have to use at least Q150 gentle or aggressive extract. So either you are high enough to use that or you will be getting extract failures. If you don't have q150 at all, then you are out of luck on supreme.

I will try this if it happens again. Thank you much for the info.

I think alot of us are ok with it because there are other places then PR to forage. Also as for the amount of time that has gone by and the bug not fixed dont forget they are trying to get the next major patch working properly.Try other games and see how often they patch ...you will find it is only once a month if lucky. Ryzom has it set so they can patch when they need to and at the moment i doubt empty nodes in the PR is at the top of there list or perhaps they are not fixing it because as mentioned above it is not a bug at all.

Yes there are other places, but not ever having the chance to get into PR to forage before, it's something new and exciting.

Trust me I know about other games and their patches and I know how good Ryzom is with things which is why it surprises me so how long they are taking to fix some of these issues. As for not being a bug, I think all that can be said about it has been. If anyone else has issues with this bug, I would appreciate the posting here so Nevrax can see how much we want it fixed.
