Harvesting
Contents
In your downtime you may harvest resources.
Some materials can only be collected via down time, these you will find information about below, but you may also harvest any of those found in the crafting submenus, these include minerals, plants and parts. Regardless of what you are harvesting the process remains the same, though relevant stats change. (eg intelligence instead of consitution for plant harvesting, nature to harvest beast parts etc)
For collecting those materials, a character needs to make a Strength (Athletics), Intelligence or a Dexterity check, depending on the material .
| Roll | Result |
|---|---|
| 0-5 | You collected 1d4 units of the resource. |
| 6-10 | You collected 2d4 + con (or relevant modifier), units of the resource. |
| 11-15 | You collected 3d4 + con (or relevant modifier), units of the resource. |
| 16-20 | You collected 4d4 + con (or relevant modifier), units of the resource. |
| 21+ | You collected 5d4 + con (or relevant modifier), units of the resource. |
The time used for extracting minerals and other materials equals to 1 week of downtime activity. This represents all the time the character uses to find and extract the materials.
