Randulf.7614 Posted October 28 Share Posted October 28 Anyone know if the collection boxes are affected by crit success/extra strikes etc? For example, would I get charged quartz as a possible drop from the quartz node if I used the collection box instead of manually? I know using the collection boxes doesn't count to wizard's vault harvesting tasks, so I wondered if affected this too 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kulvar.1239 Posted October 28 Share Posted October 28 There should be no difference. Otherwise it would be a bug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GODh.3892 Posted October 28 Share Posted October 28 (edited) I have not had a single charged quartz since i use the collection boxes (multiple accounts). I had those regularly in my home instance. Bad luck? Maybe... Edited October 28 by GODh.3892 typo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might switch to manual on that node and see if there's a difference. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am always gathering Quartz manually and often get additional ones, plus a Charged one every now and then. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randulf.7614 Posted October 29 Author Share Posted October 29 (edited) I've tested it today contiuing with the booster again and I've got quite a few extra mats on a strike whereas I'd had none in the collection box for the last few days Edited October 29 by Randulf.7614 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shuzuru.3651 Posted October 29 Share Posted October 29 Home instante node aren't affected by extra strike, may it be manually or with the collection box. Critical success doesn't exist in gathering. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Critical success doesn't exist in gathering. Let me rephrase or clarify Manually on nodes I got extra mats (eg 1-2 extra wood on trees rather than straight 3 and charged quartz on quartz nodes). Whether that counts as critical or just extra resources I'm not really bothered by in terms of terminology, my question was more whether the auto collect boxes also generate those. So far, my observations show they don't whereas manually they do. It could be rng though, hence my wider query to others 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But charge quartz is really a rare occurence, you can go days without seeing one, did you always get 3 quartz or sometimes more? Because the 5 quartz instead of 1 is a more frequent one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as I could tell, it was always 3 on each of the non-ls nodes on the auto collect, but it’s poss I may have not noticed an extra or two. I will monitor though until a definitive answer appears 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chyro.1462 Posted October 31 Share Posted October 31 Fairly sure I did get a charged quartz from the collection box once. I don't do it regularly and it stood out to me cause I wasn't aware you could get charged quartz from the node. (the 'fairly sure' is cause there's a small chance I may have manually used the nodes then and don't remember clearly) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anninke.7469 Posted Friday at 06:25 PM Share Posted Friday at 06:25 PM I've just recieved 13 normal crystal and 1 charged from the collection box. Yesterday and the day before I got 3 normal crystals. If that's of any help. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
