SpyderArachnid.5619 Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 I don't get this change either. We have always been able to gather from anyone's home instance. All the nodes without restrictions. Now all the sudden we can't gather these nodes only? Just.... why? What is the point of this change? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iceman.6145 Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 I disagree with this change as well. The price of these herbs are going to go through the roof overnight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glass Hand.7306 Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 To get more people to invest in the process of obtaining cultivated seeds would be my guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vova.2640 Posted September 4, 2019 Author Share Posted September 4, 2019 we invite guildies to gather home instances to help the guild make ascended food. this helps the guild since we dont have to ask people to donate more gold/do pve for seeds and we can afford to make feasts. But I guess it is too much for wvwers since anet wants everyone doing pve. I sincerely hate everything about this. unreal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lion.6590 Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 These seeds got implemented in the worst possible way, you have to farm the seeds, farm the mats, craft the pouch, plant the nodes, wait for the reset to gather it, and repeat everything again cause the nodes disappear once you gather it. Anet, this is boring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neutra.6857 Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 If they wanted to do a balance, why not make it so the herbs need to be replanted like say once a week? Set it up to be at the same time as one of the weekly resets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anonymous.7812 Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 Price is over 1.5g now and going up. They were ~30sPretty lame change. Should have been some other solution than this, not consistent at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes your own garden would not work properly anymore after you had gathered those plants elsewhere. Or you could gather from someone else's garden several times in a row, only to have your own seeds return to "Open Soil" and stay that way for two days. It was a mess, so I am glad it is now finally working as intended. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glass Hand.7306 Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 I think they should adjust it so visitors can harvest these once. Not being able to do it at all is too draconian. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eris.9654 Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 I craft food for my static raid groups and even I knew that everyone being able to farm someone instance was going to get changed. There is no way that was intentional. As for always being able to farm someone's garden, Yes they could for the common materials but if you have the flowers planted that make the primers unless the person farming also has the plot the flowers are useless to them.

Plok.5873 Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 Folks, just prophylactically: let's not start another shitstorm, please.That said, under the assumption, the earlier behaviour was intended, I bought permanent gathering tools for my 2nd account. Not nice, AN. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josiah.2967 Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 And gardening gets worse. slow clapHopefully they will refund my garden plots, because I bought them under the assumption I can do something nice for the guild with Ascended seeds... I bought them recently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metasynaptic.1093 Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 Before today, it was cost effective enough for me to supply ascended food to my whole raid team. Now? I CBF.Anet risks making this 'content' unused due to the high effort to low reward balance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hesacon.8735 Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 I also bought two garden nodes thinking this was intended behavior, so that was 2000 gems well spent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cerpin.8170 Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 I maxed my cook and pretty much decided never to bother crafting the food based on the system that was already in place. So, they decided to make it worse? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pax.3548 Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 At first, because it was ascended food I thought its mats and everything would be account bound, the fact you can buy these ingredients from the bazaar its better than I expected Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vova.2640 Posted September 5, 2019 Author Share Posted September 5, 2019 The goal was to buy the plots and eventually start letting guildies gather instance for foods/primers (if they want).https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/379126355670990850/618972035288399902/unknown.pngNice Bait Anet.

DeathIsVirtue.4105 Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 Okay, fine, change it to be personal use only in your home instance.However, I think adding these nodes for daily collection in guild halls would be a nice addition. 1 node per cultivated item type that can be collected once a day and doesn't need to be replanted. I'm sure the grind to acquire them would be high, but it would be a good convenience to work towards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure the grind to acquire them would be high, but it would be a good convenience to work towards.Great idea. I was thinking that a GH node would be fantastic. RNG strike 1-3 times daily like the other nodes for Varietal Seeds or a chance for a cultivated seed. The way the mining nodes can give ores or Crystals or Obsidian Shards.Honestly I am, I was going to say stunned, but that isn't the right word and I don't want to be a jerk or come off as someone that will always agree with the decisions that are made by the developers so I will say speechless. Why would anyone think that the intention of Ascended Cooking was to make FEASTS that last for 5 minutes for anyone to eat cost less then what food used to cost to craft. The old feasts cost 10 of the food the feast is. Old best in slot power raid food was 1g each and lasted for 1 hour and cost about 80s to craft if you had the recipe. Ascended feasts were 80s-1.5g to craft while this was bugged. The bug lasted for a week and everyone just assumes that it was normal? I don't understand honestly. All other ascended items have a significant time-gate or cost associated with them and are account-bound in most cases, why wouldn't this as well.
