Hello all. I was grinding on my rank 14 Miner last night trying to get to 18 before logging out for the night, only to suddenly start breaking probably 8 out of every 10 items I swung at. I was having no trouble whatsoever until I hit 16 or so. It seemed almost like fatigue but that's supposed to be gone now. Anybody else have a similar problem since the patch?

Skill Point fatigue was removed in 1.18.

Item fatigue (~250 items in 24 hours if I remember correctly) is still in place and I don't remember SE ever mentioning that they are removing it...

To be more elaborate - the term fatigue was used for both the yellow sp (correctly surplus SP/EXP) and damaging items from excess harvesting (gathering fatigue). Patch 1.18 removes suplus SP but gathering fatigue remains. It was explained by a dev here -> http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/threads/579-Community-name-quot-Gathering-Fatigue-quot?p=75424#post75424

SO you have a pool of 2500 points per gathering class. Each time you gather something sucessfully you lose 10 points. When you get down to 1000 points (i.e. after 150 successful attempts) you will start to damage items more than occasionally. When you hit 0 points you will be unable to get anything. Each hour you can regain 100 gathering points, so one day (24 hours) should almost refill your gauge.

From what I've been told, gathering leves count towards those 2500 points, however they are not affected by the gathering fatigue itself. So essentially if you're like myself and have leves banked, it's best to hit gathering fatigue first and then proceed to use leves.
