Refreshing, making drugs became even worse after encounters reworking.
From my last post I didn't manage to do more drugs (or I did and was killed by VC patrol)
You want to make for example 10 buffouts, that's like 4,5 hours of gathering, and all you get is 1,8k expierence.
And in 90% cases you die in Modoc or in the wasteland killed by VC Patrol cause of bugged reputation.
It's really sick, I don't know what were you thinking setting these timeouts.
An idea:
If you do drugs in a lab you get far more than a single shot. Multiplying amount of drugs you produce by 10 would be fine without reworking crafting timeouts of course.
