Dear AGS,
As someone who enjoys gathering in your game, Ive been rather disappointed in the gathering armor sets. There is nothing unique about them, which is a major lost opportunity. These sets should have an advantage towards gathering that type of resource.
Example: Miner’s Armor Set:

This armor provides 5% Mining Luck and Strength. Which isnt bad. However there is nothing that makes this gear “special” compared to just rolling ANY Armor with +STR and Mining Luck… In fact its often WORSE, because it doesnt come with any other perks
For example:

I can go buy this, which gives me 100% of the benefits of the [Miner’s Shirt] but also gives me stuff like [Refreshing]. So what advantage does the [Miner’s Shirt] provide me?
Please consider adding an additional Perks to these armor sets. Suggestion would be adding the perk buckets from the TOOLs for this type of gathering
EXAPLES:



This would make these sets some of the best armor pieces for gathering that type of resource.
I could see a world where you make a STATIC roll for these (Fixed Perks) and possibly allow us to upgrade these to Legendary Quality, which would add a 3rd perk to the armor.
So an Example might be:
[Miner’s Shirt]:
- GREEN/BLUE - While Mining gain up to 5.2% chance at finding rare items (625)
- PURPLE - ADDs [Mining Efficiency] Mining speed is increased by X%
- LEGENDARY - ADDs [Mining Yield] Mining yields X% more resources.
OR you might just make this armor roll from random perk buckets and allow it to drop at 600 Legendary, which would add a 3rd random perk from the bucket, and make a Legendary Miner’s Shirt something really fantastic/special.
NOTE: This same logic applies to ALL the Gathering sets. Not just Mining.
