Harvesting Help
Posted: Sat Nov 27, 2004 6:56 pm
I am looking for a site that offers a simple progression formula for harvesting?
I cannot seem to get the hang of harvesting. Everything starts out fine but once I get to around lvl 10-15 everything just falls apart on me. My harvesting formula is basically ends up like this before I get confused thinking I did something wrong and start again:
Basic Extraction: speed, rate, quality are at 1; Using counterpart #2
Prospecting plan; 5 m range; counterpart #2
Resource Preservation #1
I have tried different skill progressions but always seem to end up the same. I can prospect fine but when it comes time to extract them most of the time it says something like didn't retrieve enough and I lose the source or it blows up in my face which I would rather happen then not extract enough. Even when I use the Resource Preservation it doesnt usually allow me to gather enough of whatever to even get any XP from. I am sure that I am doing something wrong and hope that it will be a simple fix. Or is this just normal until I get my level up some. Seems like to me the better I get at it the worse I get at it if that makes any sense. Would love to see a step by step guide to harvesting somewhere with detail. Like a do's and dont's kinda thing. If anyone's got a link or some advice would love to hear it. I downloaded the game online so I don't have a book for a guide if that would even help me any if I did.
