Posted: 02 Nov 2012 at 14:17 |
|
The refresh time/properties for rare herbs and minerals appears to have altered since yesterday. Could any of the devolpers shed some light on this?

Agreed, the refresh on my larken patch is usually 16 per hour. So I usually send 30 herbalists, but this time I only got 5 larken and killed it. It stopped refreshing apparently. Alliance mate also had a 1500 grape patch quit on him as well.

It seems that they are no longer refreshing at all, could this have something to do with the circle of 5 experimenting with their newly aquired souls?

Some additional info, I had harvested the usual 30 larken 12 hours ago with 5 being left on the spot. No one else had harvested and 2 hours ago I harvested 5 and the patch was depleted. This means that the regrow on this larken patch stopped working in order for me to "overharvest" and kill the patch. It has been my experience due to much testing that if you send less than the max amount of harvesters compared to the max amount of herbs on a spot that it is impossible to overharvest due to the regrow rates, even landing harvesters immediately after the previous are done.
Either mechanics have changed or the refresh is broken and has stopped working.

refresh has stopped, my mines are empty and my miners are threatening to strike through lack of income.

At least with mines they don't disappear. My larken is gone forever!

basics herbs and grapes, as well as rare herbs are showing no replenishment and are being exhausted. I recommend suspending harvesting until this is fixed.

Normal service is resumed!!!! (Apparently) My mines have refreshed and having scouted the herb patches near my cities the levels are back to normal.

But what about herbs/grapes that were exhausted, are they coming back? Anybody filed a petition on this yet?
