Guild Wars 2

When in Cursed Shores, using the highest possible gathering tools, I keep getting ruined plant material when my armor is in need of repair. It really doesn’t matter what kind of tool I use, if armor is slightly broken, I get nothing but junk. A Guildie of mine has had the same problem in the same area.

Any idea? Anyone else having this problem in this area or other areas?

I has problem with ruined ore/planks when mobs attacks me while I gather node.
Before last huge patch that issue was very rare. Now it is happends much more often.
Last time I was fully repaired. Don’t think those are connected, but they may be somehow related.
