BUG: Mining Nodes Far Too Rare

[Lightbane]

I've run around the enitirety of Pelladane and Cape Jule and saw only 1 vein of Gantimite and it didn't even give me credit, I still have to get 16 more points before I can farm the 330 constructs also due to the extreme lack of Karthite veins. This extremely grindy mess needs to be fixed it will also help drop the prices on the AH to reasonable levels

Agreed, I understand they don't want us getting the 75 skillups in one day, but Mining seems to be taking the shaft, atm. With Foraging right behind it.

Node gathering Vs kill gathering is kinda a pain to begin with, no need to exacerbate the issue, just bring it in-line.

Are you guys actually serious? The person I play with and I joined the new areas and actually commented to each other how nodes were everywhere and how easy it is to do gathering runs pretty munch everywhere you go . . . Are you sure you're just not in an area that someone else is farming nodes in?

As an FYI, that's also not a bug.

I actually I believe the nodes spawn too quickly. If you know where to look, you can harvest/ mine resources faster than then they sell on the Auction house.

Here's a tip:
1. Make sure you don't have the "mining bug." My wife some how got it and it took her 10 mining nodes to go up a point, it sucked.
2. Do Instant adventures and mine Golems up to 325
3. Trudge through the next 10 points and get to 335
4. Head to Ardent domain. There is few locations in this zone where if you remove a resource another pops up near by. Figure out the path and collect to your hearts content. I went from 335-375 in both mining and foraging in a hour.

I am Australian. At the hour approximately 5.30 am US time, I went to Cape Jule to get some wood for my alts daily crafting. I harvested two pieces in about 20 minutes. There was no one on a 'route run', I saw no one in the zone while zipping about on my 150%+10% boost mount. At the time I thought it very odd that there were no nodes of ore or wood. There were nodes of flowers.

Just to make sure that there was no one harvesting I had missed, I remained in the once popular area for farming, a small pocket of land and waited. No nodes, no people farming. After one and a half hours I left with 20 pieces of Linden. I would say, yes there is a problem with spawn rate.

Sarlina, are YOU serious? When I got my mining up to 300 I ran around looking for the veins found none except one small pocket in northern Pelladane and 3 spawns just inside Seratos, took 20+ minutes for them to respawn and also only 1 in 5 actually gave a skill up. They ****ed it up, Green skill is 25% not Yellow which is 60-80%.
