Is it possible there is a bug which causes skill to rollover to zero? I'm finding less material now at 1k+ outdoorsmanship skill than when I had 600 foraging skill.

18 volumes of lumium from a substantial vein when I used to get 40-60 volumes from substantial and 50-80 volumes from enormous at lower skill seems off. There wasn't even that much on the stone side, just one boulder. If all that skill I have just improves quality, I'd rather see volume go up and quality stay the same as I gain skill.
Tiny lumium shard quality of 97
Huge lumium shard quality of 91
Medium lumium shard quality of 90
Large lumium shard quality of 92
Huge lumium shard quality of 98
If there was a drop in the amount of material produced from veins overall, just how bad is it for miners with less than 500 outdoorsmanship?
