have after tested severals profiles, i noticed that most affected herbs are
1-fools caps,
2-snow lily,
3-silkweed and
4-green thea leaf, in order

Slow the fuck down, on PTR the spawn rate was normal.
It will be hotfixed.
In the patch notes the 1 minute despawn was for old world ores, because people would mine the node and leave the stones, and when the next person would go there, the node will only have stones and not ores.
Calm the fuck down.

My profile finds the nodes.. but doesn't loot em

It looks like it will be hotfixed this morning. I thought I had done something awful on accident to a blacklist setting or something. Ran it overnight and got 12 fool's cap and one golden lotus.

Yes i can confirm herbs have been nerfed.
The Profiles with the short routes don't have much effect any more (Gatherit for example).
Though going on a long route (like whole Dread Wastes) brought me the "normal" amount of herbs like in Cata.
Maybe farming profiles need to be redone.
Is there such a thing as a "Pandaria Mega Route" yet ?

Cheers

My normally long routed (whole dread wastes) only does watersections below.. Pure waste of time because 50% is in the water and wont be looted.. Getting pretty pissed tought.. Hope it gets fixed.. 9h40min run 38 herbs & mines come on

Iwe seen the Nerfing, i found a fix to this tho.... im getting quite good herbs by using the Multizone profile on the forums, im getting ok caps but not as much as before, i think i might experiment with longer Fools Cap profiles, and make the "Single item" routes longer.
