Likely an oversight, I'd expect emergency maint soon for it.

Is there some trick with the multiple gathering thing? I tried mining this morning, and it was just weird. First it mines once, then seven times, once, once, three times, then once to finish it off. I had plenty of room in inventory, so even if it was something to do with stacking having it go only once just seems weird. And I don't think I actually did anything differently.

With the grove, it was 2,2,8,1,1. Every time it switched between pruning and weeding, so it could have something to do with that there... but that isn't a thing for the vein. I don't get it.

Anyone know where the home point thing is in The Boyahda Tree? Says it is supposed to be j12 but there is nothing there. Or am I reading the post wrong?

That NIN update (The Daken trait) is insane. Can't wait until someone parses the proc rate on it. I swear it was going off about 20-25% of the time. It gives throwing skill ups too! Went from 170 to 235 in one Dynamis run.

It stops auto-gathering when it moves to another node. Even veins have 2 nodes each.

Did they add homepoints to the cloisters to go with the new battlefields?

I left the cloister after doing ramuh for a whisper but there was no hp... guess I had to get it before entering the crystal?

Also I can't believe that they appear to have made Favor even worse... at least before it was useful when leveling to make your avatars cheaper...

I think it says something that after all these years, they still care about WoTG.

I'm not sure about avatar fight crystals, but entrances and exits (when you win a fight) are usually connected to different places in the next zone. If you immediately warp/tele away after the fight, you might never notice this.

They generally put home points just outside the entrance to BCNM zones.

I walked out after beating titan and there was a warp right there. Walked out after beating ramuh, nothing there... so I guess I will check going out BEFORE the fight next time

Anyone else have any tips about which side (before fight or after) each telepoint is?

Every other battlefield I've seen thusfar in the game, the Home Point is right before the BC.

It wouldn't make sense otherwise; many BCs you have to walk a distance to get back to the entrance. Why put the HP at the exit when you'd have to walk halfway through the stinkin' zone to get back to the BC? lol.

And you could, you know, check before you barrel straight into the BC zone? It ain't that hard to check for the HP on your way to the BC, right?

Thanks for the tip! Yeah I wasn't really paying attention in terms of that one. As I said in my previous post, will check before next time.

I did titan first and got it after so it just never really occurred to me that it was letting me out at a different part of the zone, since I'd always warped out before, not exited then warped.

And I used the fork to get there, so I didn't see the HP before I entered.

Given how quick it is to level to 20 it's almost worth leveling smn to 20 just to get mini forks to warp and get the home points... some of those places are a bit annoying to get to, especially if (like me) you have a terrible sense of direction
