Whats the point of gathering CD?
Ganado:
If anything, it is the crafting cooldown that should be reduced, and gathering stays the same. If there was no gathering cooldown, you could get 100 HQ ore in like 200-300 seconds, only thing slowing you would animation time and Action Points reloading.
If there was no gathering cooldown, an average gang could just camp at a mine, bring a brahmin, and in less than 10 minutes have over 400 HQ ore. That isn't how the game should be.
Sarakin:
I agree with the post above, if something has to be changed, then it should be crafting. Not gathering, because you make from nothing, something with a defined value, while crafted item preserves value of mats used.

This is true, but its already done with mining alts in a little bit more time. Players always wanna find a way to maximize their IG productivity.

What we need is more choices on how to acquire these things... keeping it balanced is #1 of course but if we just had other ways to get this equipment...

Encounter farming and shopping? It has basically replaced crafting - at least for me - and doesn't even require a special build. If something, encounter farming better be balanced because it's totally out of hand.
