Is harvesting in Roots still possible after todays patch ??

[Eshin]

From Zora you can go to the nearest root entrance in 5 minutes without meeting any aggro and harvest superior blade mats there in a totally safe zone.

And I wouldn't call getting to Abyss from Verdant Heights to be a hard stroll either. Trykers are just doomed with that issue, been on Bounty Beaches so I do know what kind of an overkill that, for example, is.

Play will ahve to spend tiem and study them and figure out the apterns in which they are avaliable.

*sigh* How do you figure out the patterns when there is nothing to reference by !!!??? (pls dont make me repeat myself a 4th time)

i have never found a supreme mat above ground, and only 1 or 2 excellent ones, i think this should be fixed aswell as prime roots having too many supreme :\

some of the predators in the roots sleep, perhaps this could be an indication to a night cycle, or do they do that action no matter the time of day?

The monsters never sleep, they just pretend so you think you can move closer to them, but you will still get eaten!
And no it doesnt matter if its night or day really, its all just to trick you!

If it has to do with seasons that's cool, as you can check that out yourself, but having those timers dependent on day/night cycles could be a bit odd, as there isn't suppose to be that in the roots.

There is no difference in seasons in Fyros land, everything looks exactly the same whatever season (granted i cant see micro-veg for some reason, but that may be the only indication in Fyros)

Exactly where I gave up getting to Tryker towns for a teleport ticket. 2 hours of trying to get thru Bounty was enough for me, a dude with me had been trying for 10.

There are literally linear lines, one after the other of aggro from portal to portal. Until our hunting parties can break thru southern Matis to the opposite Tryker region, I am gonna just have to leave that as the one place I dont have multiple spawn points in nor a teleport ticket. I can add to the guild in every nation but Tryker until that point, them guys have a lot of headaches the rest of us dont.

As far as I know, there are no day/night cycles in there. (they just aren't there, not talking about them being visible or something)

2 hours of trying to get thru Bounty was enough for me, a dude with me had been trying for 10.

We had several people trying to get across Bounty for days (can't really tell how they managed to cope with the situation), and coming from the Trench of Trials side. I personally gave up after like 4 hours of just dodging, dying, doging, dying, dodging, dying.. and I do consider myself a pretty good in creature dodging. And above all, they are so tightly packed there that you really can't afford to go near a kipee pack as there's bound to be one torbak or whatnot prowling among them (that you just can't see).

It's an overkill and so far I haven't seen a situation that bad anywhere else in Atys (maybe some parts in the roots, but they hardly aren't blocking any vital passages).

As i said people will find indicators and other things and WILL start to notice and figure out soem sort of patern.

Not if it turns out that they are totally random, and I think THAT's what ozric is worried about. I, myself, am not, as I have faith that they won't do that as implementing random timers isn't exactly a very wise decison. Good for a quick fix, but it can't be forever.

Let's just see what kind of fix they are implementing, before busting our heads open with the issue (that's goes for me too)
