Fatnastyz Posted February 15, 2012 Posted February 15, 2012 I think it would be a great benefit to all (or just gatherers) for looting/gathering during combat. Currently when I am in a flashpoint/group with others, why would they want to wait for me to scavenge when it has no benefit to them? So in turn I end up having to skip it because others don't want to wait. ( I don't blame them, I wouldn't want to either.) But if there is looting during combat then i can quickly "do my business" and join in on the fight and not lose out. Sorry but in turn I feel punished in groups for my choice of profession. Could we get a little help?
VanorDM Posted February 15, 2012 Posted February 15, 2012 There's only 4 gathering skills. Of those at least 2 can be used on stuff you kill, bioanalysis and scavenging. I'd think that anyone with Bio would be willing to let someone scavage a droid, because then they'd have the favor returned when they wanted to gather from a critter.
Fatnastyz Posted February 15, 2012 Author Posted February 15, 2012 if you're lucky enough to have one with your group. W/o gather during combat the problem is still there.
VanorDM Posted February 15, 2012 Posted February 15, 2012 That above post was sorta half a thought... I guess the only way to deal with this is to either completely remove the gathering animation for all of them, or else just deal with it. I wouldn't mind seeing the animation go away competely. But getting rid of it in just one case is a problem from a programing PoV. It can be done but it can also get messy. So typically you want the system to work the same no matter what.
Fatnastyz Posted February 15, 2012 Author Posted February 15, 2012 from what i thought was, if you can loot a dead body for credits/trash during combat why not be able to gather too? Getting rid of the animation doesn't sound like a good idea, personally I love breaking out my scanner and then getting the item. Just want easier access to my item is all.
