Pretty sure that they have some restrictions on what harvester class you can be when you roll your character.

Bet this changes again during Beta. Harvesting should be a skill period. The more you harvest of a specific resource the better you get. How good a fighter or crafter you are should be irrelevant, resources are neutral so race and class restrictions dont make any sense. Equally what is the point in limiting what resources you are allowed to harvest? This should be down to gear in an itemcentric game. To harvest timber you need a good axe to mine ore a good pick and so on. I am sure there will be other gear requirements related to harvesting perhaps related to transportation of resources.

Im not taking that bet.

I agree it will probably be tweaked throughout beta.

Hello Everyone: Thanks for the welcome Taronn

I was just tracking "Lycrist" and this is where he led me . lol

I agree with Greymain ideal that harvesting should be a skill, not driven by anything other than how much you harvest. However I do want to wait before making negative comments, because the system they have may make everyone interact better?

I am planning to stop by Vanguards Spheres on a daily bases for my facts and offical Vanguard information, so staff please keep up the great work!!
