hides and scales must be harvested from the corpse which means you are gathering the resources off a corpse. If you do not cut up the body do you recieve the hides and scales? No you do not. In order to get the hides you must harvest the corpse. That is why you get double because you are gathering.

True but ore elementals themselves are harvested. Except dull copper elementals (which can not be spawned using garg a axe) and shadow elementals in that tokonunu place...or whatever the kids call it. All others are spawned by the act of harvesting. Which are basically the same action required to harvest leather and scales.....double click one thing and target another.
We don't spawn leather/scale bearing beasties, we walk up to them and clunk'em on the head.
