Harvesting Nodes Issues

[Sciari]

Wanted to start a thread to consolidate Node harvesting concerns: So far, Tier 6 roots are very difficult to forage in sufficient numbers to craft. Please increase the number of root nodes in Tier 6 zones namely SS and Lesser Faydark. Tier 1 loams are extremely hard to find.. in Greater Faydark as well as the Freeport newbie zones.. Please increase ore nodes and make them clustered as they are in Tier 6 .. ie. rock nodes near piles of rocks etc. Tier 1 root nodes are also relatively rare. Please increase them especially on the Freeport side. Not quite as much a problem in Oakmyst. Please increase Tier 1 fishing nodes especially in Freeport newbie zones.. only zone I know of on that side is the few nodes in Sunken City guarded by level 6 fish.. kinda hard to get to with a ADV level 1 but much higher crafting level toon since dying either from the killer sharks or drowning are quite likely since the nodes are quite deep in the water. Perhaps nodes in Thieves way is an option? ie. near Newbie city zone ladders? Thanks for looking into these issues! Sciari

I whole heartily agree with the OP.  I'm constantly finding that T6 roots are impossible to get without going throughout the ENTIRE SS zone gathering up all the other nodes just so that the root nodes will spawn.  Of course, as your getting the other nodes, someone else is harvesting the root nodes that pop up.  Its the same thing whit the leaded loam.  I"m having to harvest for about 30-45 minutes for about 20 leaded loams, while i get 50-60 of everything else. IT wouldn't be as bad if leaded loam was its own separate node, since the problem seems to be that leaded loan, malachite, and tin all share the same node, which only helps make it even more rare.  Also, i've found that too many recipes need succulent root. It would help the supply out ALOT if succulent root was removed from provisioning, and from some of the woodworking recipes.  That way, there's FAR less demand for roots than there is now.
