I can confirm removing any Craftable Watchstones in Hamlet and Lex Proxima 100% fixes the bug.

I ran 60+ maps 0 harvest, removed craftable watchstones and literally the next map I get harvest.

GGG Please fix.

Since day one (I play in permanent Standard this time around) I was going for harvests and noting every map I did.
I'm at 12 Harvests in 250 Haewark Hamlet maps, all of these 12 were before I got any Titanium Watch stones. I know RNG can be a pain, but no Harvests in 75 maps can not be just unlucky anymore?
Also I don't think I have seen any Abyss in those 75 maps, so something is obviously blocking the spawning of certain things.

I hope GGG at least has read this, else it's waiting for the first big streamer to notice this issue. I had one streamer today say she only encounters harvests in Zana maps these days, coincidence? I think not ...

EDIT : 3rd map after removing the Titanium watchstones I got a harvest, also had 2 corrupted zones and 2 abysses in these 3 maps. This smells like confirmation and I feel more people should know about this.

That is not how you check it...

What if that map didnt have a harvest, would you have come to the conclusion that it didnt fix it?

You need a bigger sample size than 60 with to 1 without.

This is some extremely anecdotal evidence, I sincerely doubt there's any bugs here whatsoever. For example, I have had 2 titanium watchstones with extra zana% socketed in Haewark for my last ~300 maps, at some point I remember getting 3 harvests BACK TO BACK, and I certainly have been getting plenty of harvests here and there.

RNG is RNG.

Guys, i think you lost this

I have also noticed that if you don't force any master missions on your maps, harvest seems to spawn consistently. So far i have NEVER had any master missions spawn with harvest.
I've seen both spawn for streamers but there seems to be a bad interaction between masters and harvest. Maybe you're hitting a cap on a map's interactive spawns? Or it could be that sub-zones are capped. It's definitely worth investigating.

i can confirm that this is 100% bullshit.
people parroting one guy and imagining changes.


reason why..
i have no crafted watchstones what so ever.
i even removed all normal watchstones. and no change. no harvest.

i am of the oppinion that it's the freaking maven points.
last things i unlocked was 100% increased chance for tier4 plants.

instead of making tier4 plants more common. i think they made harvests themselves to be as rare as a tier 4 plant.

haven't seen a single harvest in a full day of mapping.

just keep finding delerium and legion and that's it. (nothing else)

sure dude. that's why there is a whole group of people here with problems getting harvest.


now it being related to any of the things we think is another matter.
it could just be that ggg broke it with the last patch and needs to fix it, and it doesn't matter what we do ourselves it's not going to fix it

I too did around ~100 hamlet maps yesterday and didn't encounter a single harvest. I follow the suggestion in this thread to remove all the craftable watchstones with "encounter", harvest starts to appear again like 1/10 or 1/5 maps.

I will add my experience in.

I also was having trouble, I eventually started counting maps after dozens. I did have one streak where I got 3 in a row, but it felt no where near 10% rate overall.

I did the suggestions in the thread. It didn't seem to work. Then I had the idea that we are trying to stop league mechanics being forced into our maps so it's 100% natural. I had been running the Essence passive tree with Haewark. I unspec'd it and started getting Harvests approximately every 10 maps, as you would expect. I've done around 100 maps and seen about 10, all spaced pretty evenly.

The sample size is way too small, but maybe it will help someone. I'm not into superstitions.. but I've run a lot of damned maps this league and it felt better earlier when I didn't have the special watchstones. Also felt way better in random (non-Harvest) Zana maps, or Conq. citadels.

Good luck guys

edit: after significantly more maps the results are the same, I'm getting many more Harvests.
