This is bad... BAAAD i say.
Matierial Specialisation is supposed to increase quality and reduce agressivness of rate and speed.
It does absolutely nothing now, except cost more focus. Zero Benefit. No reduction at all in aggressiveness of rate or speed.
THE ONLY benefit i found is i now have 10 free slots on my hotbutton bar, as i've deleted all the mat spec buttons.
Gentle Harvest is just as useless as before.
Xp is dreadful.

Lucky you, i got 100sp wasted atm, and more. Gentle 100 on Gentle speed 3 and Gentle Rate 3 is just as much risk as Harmful speed 4 and Rate 4 and Harmful Q 150 and the explosions are the same. The speed of drop is the same, it dont matter if node is 0 or 5.
Totally messed up. Still checking, but i think Mat Spec is just a waste of time now.
at 64 focus use, i am now getting 2 mats per 1000 focus where before i got 10-15. Total waste of time. Rate of Source time drop and Risk is EXACTLY the same as using harmful.
add to this "You found nothing" after a single harvest of a single source which didnt explode, which had a huge source count and... it beggers belief..
apparently mat spec now means more mats instead of more quality.. but the source life is ending long before risk or extraction time now 100% of the extractions, i've mixed and tried all kinds of setups.
basically the time to get a stack of mats has been extended by about 5000% imo forget my pricing thread. forget buying mats from me.
I cant afford to sell them anymore.

They forgot to mention that you loose your 3 most recent spawn points
It feels so good now to think back at those 2 evenings i spent getting 300k DP twice and dying about 50 times to get the Loria spawn, only to have it dissapear the day after to a absolutely pointless patch.
and no, i dont find it fun to "explore" in this game

This is where you start actually writing changes in patch notes before the "stealth nerf" paranoia sets in pre every patch.
