Harvesting skills cap/rollover

[Kazgoroth]

<p>Hello everyone!</p><p>I've run the TS instances and worked the new harvesting line so that I now have a unicorn and my harvester's cloak.  In addition to those I have the boots and items from the faction merchant which all in all give me over 530 to all of my harvesting skills.</p><p>Yet I seem to actually do worse at harvesting now than I did BEFORE I had the cloak and unicorn.  Now I of course understand randomness but over time I should see significantly more rares than I did previously when I had 430 harvesting skills since the success rate is directly tied to those skill levels.</p><p>It almost seems to me that these numbers have rolled over at some point back to 400 maybe.</p><p>Is anyone else seeing this too?</p>

<p>Shortly after the FSSD stuff went live (unicorn, &tc.) I ran around T2-4 doing a LOT of mining with skill 523/548, and was getting 1-8 rares per 10 nodes harvested (including the famed double of a rare on the normal hit, and a rare on the achievement bonus hit).</p><p>The pRNG is still streaky, but I haven't noticed it being _worse_ at any tier.</p>

<p><span style="font-size: small; font-family: comic sans ms,sans-serif;">Actually it seemed worse for me and I am only talking about Feerrot and Everfrost because I was concentrating on these zones especailly for ebon clusters.  Over a weeks worth of harvesting these 2 areas, I got less rares than I had before the unicorn and the cloak.  In another post someone mentioned dememishing returns....though that would defeat the purpose of gearing up.</span></p>
