There's nothing objectively worse about it. Relax and take it easy, play more casually. Drop the mentality that you should wall off entire mountains and have your edelweiß combine run over it every x hours.

If one of my villagers said this to me we'd probably end up having an honorable 5v1 duel to their death
I'm amused by my own antics.

There is though. The fact that some shitty character with no investment into exploration is getting the same chance to get by far the best curiosities in the game as somebody who invested 62,900 LP into the skill (For 35 points) is a retarded notion, no matter which way you look at it.

There is no legitimate purpose as to why that luck based system needs to exist when Exploration as an ability exists.

You still cannot see the forageables without the investment into perception and exploration.

Then why are people finding bluebells and boletes with 1 exploration and 10 perception?
The curiosities I'm finding are worthless anyway. Craftable curiosities outdo them in every regard. The only reason to primarily be a forager was to look for Flotsam/Edel/Bluebells.

Will look at that aspect of it, then.

Ok, that part of it seems confirmed, then. Will fix.
