Thoughts on the further development of Haven & Hearth? Feel free to opine!

Re: Farming should be constant quality gains

Agreed that the current system is flawed in the same way, but I still think it makes more sense to attempt to replace it with something meaningful rather than spend time tinkering for a short term fix.

which one is the fastest?

i prefer know general information than been testing until i noticed which one is the fastest node

so which is the fastes crop?

make a claim in the akibihara region and farm pumpkins and carrots. im getting a crop of carrots to seed stage in under a day, carrot stage in ~ a day. pumpkins are currently something like -30% maturation time.


is way to hard and my farmer is my soon to be village lawsman -_-



you can have multiple claims, and dont have to join a village to do so. just find a nice area within aki, build a farm outpost, and just go there to do farming. costs like 5k lp i think to start a second claim?

Bump. Running farming bots 24/7 for quality gains is cancer.

if you cant be on often enough, then join a village.

completely random quality gains is what we USED to have, and i do not want to go back to that.
Newbie and noob do not mean the same thing.

Neither do figuratively and literally.

It also isn't fun having to store barrels of seeds just to not get dicked when you get the -2. I know there's probably some argument along the lines of "b-but m-muh immersions" or something, but gameplay wise, the current +5/-2 system really doesn't do anything except pester and annoy in certain cases.

Meant to bump this post but some moderator had moved my thread into this one.

I don't think anyone but the farming bots plant crops every hour on the hour.

Quality mechanic where every seed was individual should be brought back. It was removed with the tri-quality introduction, as the combinations were to vast for the seeds to stack meaningfully.

Now that tri-q is gone for good the individual seed quality should be brought back, it was a way better mechanic than the 'one field, one quality' that just screams to be automated as it forces you to plant every some hours 24/7 to make sure there is an increase in crop quality.

No, having to sort seeds is cancerous and would just be botted again. The best way to make bots not mandatory is to make the quality increase flat across the board.

You're too lazy to do 5 clicks while holding some modifiers?

Increase crop quality with loot from resource spots and dungeons, and RNG can only decrease ¦]
