    My Tier 3 Provisioning Hireling gave me a Potato the other day. One Potato. Today, I got four Onions! It was only good when compared to the one Potato.

    Haha I know that feel...
    I'm pretty happy with my other Hirelings, but Provisioning Hireling feels like a complete waste of skill points. Not to mention he has the most boring letters of all...

    Gonna say it again, you need to log into the game every 12 hours to get the two mails everyday....

    its like this if you log out of the game for a month you dont get 60 mails sitting and waiting for you to be open, ONLY ONE

    Yes, I happen to realize that's how it works. Which doesn't mean I don't still think it's broken, just that it's apparently broken by design. It should be sending me 2 mails a day. Not a mail 12 hours after I last logged on and got one.

    Now, I'm fine with not accumulating them over multiple days, but they should at least accumulate over 1 day.

    As far as I'm concerned, it's current implementation is broken. If I'm logging in at 8pm every day, there should be 2 mails waiting for me. Not 1. (or, if I only have 1 or 2/3, there should *always* be 1 mail. Not 1 every other day or thereabouts)

    @GnatB‌ there is a thread requesting a change to that specific mechanism, you arent the only one who thinks it is not workeing properly.

    But as of yet, there has been no responce from any Zos people in it, would be nice if Ie. @ZOS_GinaBruno‌ or @ZOS_JessicaFolsom‌ would pop in and give a small comment, if it is something they plan to change or if we have to "suck it up"

    I love my hirelings. I am raising all my 7 alts in provisioning just so they can get the hirelings and get me enough decent foodstuff to feed all my alts.

    Honestly I understand limiting certain crafting materials when it comes to weapons and armour but not for consumables like food (and also potions). Those things need to be in reasonably plentiful supply.

    We should be able to go round and pick some food ingredients like alchemy plants. Why shouldn't red wheat, oats, potatoes etc occasionally grow wild?
