Update 1.0.10.3039 Chemical waste bug

[sharzul]

"In order to ease your progress in the game, we have increased the amount of resources you get when destroying enemies or farming the seabed."

Unfortunately, only 20 pieces of chemical waste can be harvested...

The other 2 harvest fields have 2-4 times the amount since the patch, only chemical waste is still the same as before.

Is it just me, or is the patch still faulty?

Chemical waste has a terrible balance.

1. Buy for medalions
2. Board snappies and disassemble shields
3. Hunt mobs - they drop wastes now

Killed 3 jetski. Looted 20 chemical waste from 2 of them. 40 in total. I'd say it is perfect.

[sharzul]

recently as loot? OK, that would be an improvement. I'll test it later

But compared to the other harvest fields, the yield is still the same as before the patch

But there should also be more dredging points within one circle?

Forget that, people can easily get rope before t4 now

Yes there is. But that only means you can harvest more if you're lucky enough to catch a circle.

but there is no relaxation in the harvests. The circles are superimposed as always.

and I think a new bug has been added. Often circles on the map show that they are ready for harvest, but on site they are black

No, seen that commonly before the update as well, there seem to be some kind of desync happen from time to time. Sometimes the radar is ticking — but the circle it empty, you relogin — and radar is no longer ticking.
And sometimes it's the opposite, radar not ticking, but echo sounder shows a point — and i think it was mostly in case of mysterious barrels.

Could also be a ship that just hit it before you and map hasn’t updated yet.

That's exactly why this is called a desync. But when someone dredges near me — usually the radar is correctly updated.

Where are the Snappies i dont find em , only Shamrock Trawlers

[sharzul]

I killed over 200 different enemies and not a single one had any chemical waste. Many other raw materials were often available in packs of 50. but no chemical waste

That's not a new bug, the map takes a bit to update - also, if you're looking on the map and it's ready for harvest, someone may have gotten to it before you got there.

There is a lot more loot now, not just double but in some cases 4x loot and 3-5 points.
Depends on the spot as well, i think the intended mechanic was always to make the point have more loot as time passes while fresh spawns has less loot

Ive found a lot less fiber since the update it seems. Thats are just had a bad day of luck with it.

Or maybe just further from the center where there are less visitors
