Maybe it is the server I am on .. or the times I play .. or the zones I harvest .. but, I think I have only had a problem three or four times when an area was being harvested "greatly" by other players.
my biggest issue is t6 roots, then far behind, there is t7, the only safe areas to harvest are in tt, and there its often crowded, the only spot with a reasonable amount of dens can be locked by one player, the only spot with a reasonable number of shrubs can be loked down by one player, the only spot... you get the idea... the other tiers are trouble free though...

When you fall asleep! <img src="/eq2/images/smilies/ed515dbff23a0ee3241dcc0a601c9ed6.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" width="15" height="15" />Seriously, I have a 50ish Provie. Why cook in the dungeon that is a TS instance, when I can cook in the far more attractive Bakery in NQ? It actually has sunlight coming through the stained-glass windows! You can buy your fuel there and the broker is right across the courtyard. The only thing this place doesn't have is writs (which I don't do anyway). More ppl need to get out of the dungeon and make the city appear more alive by working outside.

....when you start deleting things out of your inventory to gather that one last node.

I take a break when the Badger "Posteriors" in EL start magically looking like Ore nodes and I rush madly to harvest them.

Though I think the worst was when I saw what looked to be the top of an ore node over a hill in Commonlands, and when I got to the top of the hill it turned out to be a stone beetle...

While talking to my son I actually double clicked on an EL badger once - to which he took immediate offense.

I'm one of those fogeys who haven't made a macro to harvest. I know I harvest too much 'cause I've worn the "F" off my keyboard.

1. When you check EQ2Players more than once a day to see if you're in Top 10 Rares Harvested yet. 2. You spend more coin on larger bags than you do armor and equipment. 3. You've passed up a shiney because you need every piece of belladonna root your inventory can hold to finish a rush order writ. 4. While harvesting a node you have at least three /group messages "Where the hell are you?!"5. At least once, you've wiped a raid because you recalled seeing an ore node outside the instance and evac'd your group to go get it before it respawns somewhere else. ^^

I turn them so far down you cannot even get this low of settings using the game's UI !The plus side is I can see nodes and shinies from very very far away.Edit - Well not all areas .. places like TT it is not needed.

One more thing harvesting in SS and you are looking into either zones like SS to Clefts of Rujark or Pillars of Flame and you notice a node from where you are standing and when you try to get that node you are zoned into that zone.. so it was all a tease. Fool me once, twice, and forever.. I always fall for this trick.. I guess it is time to take a break.. ugh... enjoy odo
