DrunkMunki Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 i just updated my servers and if its double rates, why if i set it to 5x i get 5 rocks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zite Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 That should be 50 if going by past multiplier rates and compare to what WC claims they did in this update. *sigh* who knows anymore? ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Volunteer Moderator GP Posted August 25, 2020 Volunteer Moderator Share Posted August 25, 2020 I believe this is correct. The last time they officially increased the rates to 2x they reduced the stone count down to 1. I suspect they did that again this time, which is why it's not wise to judge it based on stone count.

Wait, so just to clarify, it is a multiplier we are just not seeing the correct count? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, you are seeing the correct count, you are getting 1 stone. This is what they did last time they increased it. For the resource setting of 1.0 the stone gathering is always 1 stone when you pick it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good to know, since you actually answer questions I have one more, will the launch on Xbox only be for people who own the Xbox One S? Or do you know?

edycod Posted August 25, 2020 Author Share Posted August 25, 2020 for the anniversary and summer event they set it to 4x and when you picked up a stone it was 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Volunteer Moderator GP Posted August 25, 2020 Volunteer Moderator Share Posted August 25, 2020 Just now, edycod said: for the anniversary and summer event they set it to 4x and when you picked up a stone it was 4 Yes that's because setting it to 4x would be 4.0 which would mean you pick up 4 stones. The setting in the game now is 1.0, meaning you pick up 1 stone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zero064 Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 So if I have harvesting and taming rates set to 4X on my server, do I now need to set them at 2X to keep them the same? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reddotjellytot Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 So collecting a single rock vs a dino doing the job is going to remain the same. its confusing, am I missing something? The way I see it, is the evo event was x2 where we got 2 rocks now the new x2 implemented into the core game we get 1 rock, looks very much backwards When I was at school I was always taught that 1x2=2 not 1. Have my teachers been lying to me all these years. OMG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sativa420 Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 I knew this would be hard for some to conceptualize. X# events are events. The BASE rate has been adjusted, this is so events can still be included later. So the base used to get (insert random number.) . 240 stones per swing of a doed. Now with the rates changed you would get 480 per swing. it has nothing to do with the individual stone you pick up. This is only for events, which we are NOT on. The BASE amount was adjusted.

Have my teachers been lying to me all these years. OMG The rates are the same as they were before the update. Basically, they have been doubled for the past few months through the dynamic config, but now they doubled them directly in the game and disabled set the dynamic rates back to 1.0 as you can see there: http://arkdedicated.com/dynamicconfig.ini 30 minutes ago, sTv said: It would be wonderful if we knew BEFORE the patch how and what to set up.

You need to halve your taming, xp and harvesting multiplier if you want to keep them the same as before that update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chrialex Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 If my XPmultiplier was set to 1.5, what would I set it to now? Setting it to .75 seems like it would be too low, but mathematically that would be half of 1.5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bruvas78 Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 Harvesting trees / rocks / dead bodies definitely yields more. Picking up a rock still only gives you one. There's the rocket science, move along. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
