Please explain Nuts & Seeds

The skill, which I've just 'learned', says it 'allows me to find more nuts when foraging'?

How so? Does it allow quicker respawns of previously harvested trees? More chestnuts on the ground? Does it increase my cap of '2 hickory'?

More nuts'n'seeds is great, I'm just curious how this mechanic works.

It probably increases the chance to find chestnuts when foraging. Apart from that noone really cares what this skill does. Everyone has it.

Should give more nuts when foraging and more nuts from trees.

If you don't care what a skill does, why spend inspiration to get it?

I'll be adding you to my list of "idiots to ignore."

Thanks. I'll test the cap for trees. :)

Tssk tssk, why so judgemental? You know almost nothing about this game and yet you call people answering your question idiots when you are the one who misses the point of their answer. Oh the irony.

Oh, and to answer your question:

Because finding chestnuts alone makes such a cheap skill worthwhile. It may unlock other skills as well.

Why spend inspiration? Because it is cheap and unlocks many other skills.

The part about not caring simply meant that everyone gets the skill early on, everyone has it so everyone has whatever benefits it gives. So nobody really needed to know how much it helps with anything. Just like people don't care what benefits does breathing or eyebrows give.

Stop being so agressive, it doesn't help you.

Nuts and Seeds does in fact increase the number of nuts you get from trees. I believe it also gives you a food recipe or two.

It gives you the following:
  1. More nuts from trees in-which offer said nuts.
  2. Better ratio of finding nuts. Example: instead of a 1:1 ratio of finding a nut, it is more alike to a 2:1 ratio. You'll notice while walking through a chestnut generation tile.
  3. More nut recipes. (Food and curiosities.)
  4. Will not increase the amount of pine-nuts gained.

LOL. Well, that post of his wasn't the first, or the second, jerkish thing he said to me -- that's why I called him what I called him and rightfully so. There are plenty of people out there that deserve respect -- he's not one of them. And yep, it works both ways though. . . don't expect someone to be nice to you when you are not nice to them. . . kinda' weird, right? :)

Thanks for the answer!

!!!This is perfectly answered Father. I do appreciate the well thought out response. As for being an ass-hat -- as I said above, my response to him wasn't based solely on this one post. . . it was several posts, in fact. All of which he was the ass-hat. :)

Also, I'd like to point out to everyone that I was getting only 2 hickory nuts from each tree. . . now I'm getting 3. . That is awesome in its own kinda' way. :)

Thanks everyone.
