    Today I went for some gathering to Lamech's Bazaar. There were 2 things I noticed:
    - the gathering XP is the same as in tier 5 zones, while Lamech's in Normal mode is tier 10.
    - when going to Hard mode, gathering XP didn't change.

    As a gatherer, I think I should be rewarded for going to harder zones and take more risks. So please make the gathering XP (including meticulous XP) scale witht he difficulty of the scene.

    To be fair, there are only a handful of nodes that are actually protected by enemies, the rest can just be harvested without danger.

    Used to be, anyway. IIRC when big cats came in they got dropped near a lot of those nodes. But it's been a while, I could be wrong.

    But I do agree that those nodes which are guarded should be better quality, especially in Hard/Extreme/Ludicrous Speed. That was my favorite scene for gathering, but the cats kinda ruined it. Cats ruin everything.

    this is not a matter of having missed doing that. the tech for scaling scenes was never finished, so the people requesting more of them are jumping the guns a bit.

    the task to finish the underlying tech is still open. SOTA-69968
