1st. The success rate on the action stanzas is grossly inaccurate.
It appears to be something wrong with the success rates listed on the actions
I have attempted over 100 tries to harvest q140 material out of the prime roots with a 128 skill in advanced prime roots, using every combination of credits and option bricks(gentle and aggressive), including mat specs. And I can NOT get to q140. I always get 2-3+ (one time I had 7 during 1 extraction) failure messages resulting in 75%+ of them spoiling what i'm harvesting. Even when I would have a source mode 1, and it didn't change during the entire extract (with a source time 4 +15s), and living through the clouds (which appear 90% of the time, the other 10% are explosions), with the source life going down slower than the time left, i had 5 missed pulls (no Q increase) and then just as I was at q136.9...I got a spoil, leaving me with q118. Now, with EVERY one of these combinations it listed the success rate for the action as 95% for prime roots and for lakeland forage (which is actually 8 levels lower than my prime roots forage). Something seems wrong here. Why give a skill that you will NEVER be able to put to use, and is less effective than either gentle or aggressive q130? I can do either of those ALL day long with hardly any downtime. Getting 2-3 mats a pull, 1100-1200+ xp a pull. I am personally fine with that, but if my success rate is 95% you would think ONCE out of over 100 tries I would at least pull ONE q140 mat. But it just doesn't happen. And you get lower Q every single attempt due to spoiling, than using q130.
Now admittedly this is a small thing that should be looked into(I am not calling it a nerf, just a bug) (heck it seems more like the 'success' rates of crafting something 13 levels higher than your skill (which is listed at 54% to craft this difference between craft skill and something 13 levels higher). But it's what most people are screaming nerf over. I mean you should be able to succeed at a reasonable rate on a skill that is available to you 3 levels ago in this branch.
2nd thing I hate about the patch, everyone in region/tells and AFK is now letting messages through....please fix afk so I do not have to listen to people whining about how they think everything is nerfed.
The two things I dislike about patch one.

Not happy with the high resist rates on debuffs

Re: The two things I dislike about patch one.
After reading several of your posts, I've concluded you have a very closed mind, are too ignorant to know when people are fighting on your behalf about things that affect you, and are generally very negative to anyone that posts something offensive to your delicate sensibilities (or lack thereof), specially to those that are trying to make the game better for everyone.
I really enjoy how you say I'm not a nice person and yet every post you make, you call someone a whiner or fanboi and are generally just a nuissance.
In short, I guess what I'm trying to say is...
...before you call someone a whiner (or a big mean person, ooooo), revisit your own posts and make sure you're not already guilty of the same.
Of course, people like you never see their own faults. I'm sure you'll still believe it's ok to condemn someone for their actions while you do the exact same thing, and you'll still honestly believe there's nothing wrong with it. I'm sure you'll get all zinged out and twist around, call me names, the whole gambit. I'm saddened that my advice about how to protect yourself from your own idiocy will not be heeded or used.
That's ok, feel free. I've said my peace.
