Okay, seriously, this is the most ridiculous expansion to harvest in. I needed two skill points to harvest in Butcherblock the other night. I went looking for logs in GF. Starting from the BB side, I swept the area moving toward the the teleport ring, swept south all the way to LP area (at this point, I'd seen like one bush, maybe 3 roots), then aaaaaallllll the way over to Crushbone. I saw a few things before the Crushbone horse area, but still, no logs. A couple rocks, a couple roots, but that was it. I sweep through area just beyond horse station and find one log in the entire area. I go into the area with the entrance to Crushbone, and what do I find? One more log at the very back.Good thing I got lucky on skill ups and didn't have to find another.All complaints aside, can the frequency of harvest nodes in EoF zones be looked at? I've tried on 3 occasions to harvest in EoF, only to be frustrated all times. Not with simply not being able to find the nodes I want, but being able to find nodes at all. I've tried Steamfont, GF, and LF and had the worst time. I found a decent amount in BB. Sometimes Loping had predictable clusters along fringe areas, but its nothing like what you can get in DoF and KoS expansions. Heck, even RoK has given me better luck.I'm just saying...

You're not the only one.When I've started a toon in Kelethin, I moved them to CL or Antonica for harvesting leveling soonest. The only T2 areas I've ever found are around Tunare's Glade, around Emerald Lake on the way to New Tunaria, and Crushbone area from where the footmen are back to the keep. It's not impossible to get your harvesting up in GF, but it's a bit of a pain.I hardly harvest in EoF areas, only if I happened across a node as I move thru the map. I tend to do harvest in old world maps, better to find nodes.Nodes in EoF do need to be a bit more plentiful.

There are loads of T2 nodes in GF if you know where to look.There is an enclosed area near the spires that is a good starter - small passage just to the West - no agro mobs in here.Also the area on the approach to Crushbone tends to be good too however the orcs will agro depending on your level.Fishing is more of a challenge and you need to head east up river all the way passed the waterfalls to the lake surrounded by the L18+ agro golems. That has a limitted number of T2 fishing nodes and you may be better heading to Antonica and fishing near the lighthouse.

Antonica's not really great for T2 fishing. I always head to Commonlands. The canals there as well as the lakes work out for fishing, as well as getting your swimming score up.

I took one of my toons over to Lesser Faydark thinking I would find more nodes than in Sinking Sands to harvest for loams for my alchemist. I went back to Sinking Sands quickly. LOL

Lots there, although they are protected by level 58-60 aggro solo mobs. </span>
