Serious Harvesting Issue!

There are inconciderate people(we have those in game? NO WAY!) that harvest a flower/plant for alchemy but leave the worm behind. So, the flower/plant stays there with only a worm in it for some other poor sucker to come along and get crapped on. Please guys, this NEEDS to change! Make it where you cant harvest the flower without taking the worm as well or even way better just remove the worms from flowers/plants completely! Sorry but they are complete trash items and 99.9% of the people in the game dont want them! NOW....if fishing was something actually fun and worth doing then the worms would have value. So, its simple....remove them or make it so it must me taken with the flower/plant! Or fix fishing would be nice too cuz as is its seriously boring and worthless cuz cant use the fish in crafting! Thnx guys!

    It would be nice if they'd just eliminate the worms from flowers. Who fishes anyway? Make them a separate drop, or only a mob drop. That way you could leave it behind more easily.

    or better yet remove bait altogether unless you go buy it or soemthing. damn crawlers and stuff has cost me lots of gold up till now.. i lost count how often i,m in a dungeon and my bags are full , so i end up quikly lookinf for stuff to dump so i can get more stuff in before i leave. i end up dumping a stack of something i can sell. then when i get out the dungeon and have a proper look in safetly theres a few crawlers and worms taking up space i could have used..... grrr

    What I do with worms is I know what compartment of my bags it goes in and when I am weighed down I look for items to 'destroy'. It's easier if you are in compartments than in 'all'.

    Or sort your inventory by value :smile: put the 0 gold value at the top when looking for things to destroy for space.

    For those of those who do not want the lure when they farm alchemy or cloth nodes, just use this add-on;

    It will automatically destroy lures if you set it to destroy them, as well as anything else you desire.

    Just found a treasure chest in a dungen and thought to my self "COOL" but when I went to pick the lock it just opened and all that was in it was a damn lockpick! Its crap like that, that ruins the gaming expirence! They picked the lock took everything of value and left the chest spawned in with crap in it. After something has been opened/harvested it should refresh its self with new items after a random time as if it had everything tacken from it!

    Something needs to be done about this! Thnx.

    I will not use 3rd party softwear even if it would be helpful like the one you mentioned. Maybe that is feature that Bathesda could add to the game. And make all items required to be taken thats not on your reject list or you cant take nothing at all. This would be a great way to fix this issue! People can not be bothered with items they dont want and it keeps people from just leaving crap items behind.

    If someones bags are full, you really expect them to take the worm and leave you the flower? You want the node to pop back up, take the junk and destroy it yourself. Sorted.

    It's hardly an issue at all, definitely not a 'serious' one.

    Suit yourself, but don't hold your breathe waiting for Zenimax (not Bethesda) to implement it. They designed their interface to be minimalistic and designed the game to work with addons and is counting on, and encouraging, 3rd parties to make addons to enhance the gameplay. If you choose not to use addons, that is your choice, but you will have to live with the inconveniences that come with that conviction.

    I'm guilty of pulling the worms out of nodes and leaving the material. I've even paid people 5g for each piece of bait they sell me. I've got a nice stock pile going.

    Well, I disagree with you thus the reason for the thread. Its stupid when I stop and try to harvest something I need only to get a worm cuz some lazy jerk took the flower and left the worm. I didnt stop and take my time to harvest a worm!!! And if your inventory is full then drop something to make space or go get rid of your loot how ever you wish. You sir are inconsiderate obviously and could care less about other players.

    Recommend putting in feedback suggesting that nodes be "used up" if the material is taken, even if something is left in it (like a worm). I have a feeling that the developers would agree this is annoying.

    In the meantime, I suggest using an addon like LootFilter to auto-delete bait if you don't want it. Saves a lot of clicking.

    Nodes and chests need to reset faster when they have been 'partially' looted. At the moment they do not reset any quicker then normal nodes and chests (yes they do reset after 1hr)

    If any 'partially' looted chest and node reset after 5 mins, this problem would go away. (mostly).

    I loot everything including bait because I at times fish, however if I didn't then I would leave the worms and crawlers and the likes. Why should I have to take stuff in my inventory I don't want?

    boo friggin hoo you lost 5 seconds on a harvesting node...

    And if your inventory is full then drop something to make space or go get rid of your loot how ever you wish.

    @#@$ that. I'll not throw something away from my inventory just to facilitate you. although I do agree with the last part; I'll get rid of my loot however I wish.. I 'll add to that that I'll acquire my loot however I wish.

    Sorry, I laughed when I read your post. You see, it's the massive swarms of botters that are leaving behind the worms. If we get rid of the botters, we get rid of the problem. They are filling their bags till they can fill no more.

    ZOS, if you are going to allow botters, at least make them behave and take the freakin' worm! :)

    Thanks!
