I agree, there seems to be a misconception here. If you use the gloves outside the wilderness, you will get a 1.5x multiplier, not 2x! I am pretty sure that black salamanders x4 is much better than x1.5 red chins. I haven't personally used them yet, but I think that you should only wear them when you're taking out the salamander. Wearing them whilst laying traps is a waste. We need a guide. Where is this rumor coming from? I read IN THE ARTICLE that you get 2X bonus
