Partner Gathering

THANK YOU! I was wondering why it didnt give anything upon gathering. Most of my equipment have speed+ upgrades. Very helpful information!

No problem. Honestly, if I knew I would've thought twice about buying my butler.

Do you know why my partner isnt giving me a second gather at all now? :C not even without a speed upgrade.

Very likely that you have passive + gathering speed. I don't know how, but my main (merchant, with r1 production mastery) still doesn't get two drops even with a normal knife.

I logged onto an alt who has production B, and with a normal knife I did have double drops.

Neither of my characters get 2x drop anymore, although my main did before. :l

Weird. I've no idea what else could affect it.

Okay strange. I just tried it with my noob alt, and collecting worked just fine with parter. 2x drop firewood.

Hm...weird. Are you sure the other two don't have skills that would affect the gathering? (like prod mastery, carpentry, herbalism, etc.)

they both have production mastery, but no carpentry or herbalism. but prod mastery doesnt affect gathering speed anyway, and it was just working fine for one of them yesterday. :C

In fact, the 3rd alt also had r8 prod mastery.

actually, my 2nd alt only has rF prod mastery, doesnt work :C

I tested with an alt that had never summoned either partners before.

Both gave 2x firewood drop upon gather.

I gifted one a dress and it gained 2 disposition points, but no longer gave me 2x firewood drop. But the butler that I hadn't gifted anything to still did..

That that still makes no sense, since after some amount of gathers, the partners stopped dropping firewood even if I hadnt gifted them anything.
