#6 - Does investing into a work node increase the chance to get the byproduct of a node? Like does a worker working at a chicken farm have a higher chance to get eggs if you invest into that "2nd tier" produce node? #7 - Does investing enegry into the work node and the general node effect or do anything for workers production at all? Basically the age old debate. Some say investing in a worker node (side node of the main node where the worker works) has absolutely zero effect, others say there is a higher chance of side items. I've come here to see what ya'll have to say, and hopefully backed up with some sources. Thank You, Worker Blessings. spend energy on workers/gathering right now. investing into a production node (wheat, potatoes, iron, copper) yields next to no benefits for a new, even vet player in almost all cases. there are simply better places to put your energy. for grinding, it's a different story (helms node, sausan garrison, etc), as it it increases item drop rate for you.
