In most other Gathering skills, its all about the Gathering. That seems kind of the point, but in actual practice, it can make things really tedious and boring.
Want to stock up on Food? better Click on a school once every 5 mins till I have 2k sailfish and Read I guess.
Or a Wisp. Or a Node. Or a Tree..... Etc etc.
You get the idea.
While that Aspect still is there, there's so much MORE to it.
I'm no longer just gathering to get mats for another skill. Or just to Sell
I'm Gathering because I have a set goal in mind;
I need to get mats to restore this artifact --> So I can complete this Puzzle --> So I can get into this area --> so I can finish a Collection --> so I can unlock a Relic. Etc etc etc.
While the Core of the skill isn't much different than other Gathering skills I think, its so much more than one as well. The Progression and Goal setting here is Beautiful. It really is my new favorite skill.
Can't wait to see more things to do and more sites to visit.
