So maybe it's the RNG, but....
Since the last Publish, I've mined precisely zero saltpeter in the usual spots I work ('dungeon' areas in Trammel, mainly the passages to Lost Lands). I know you don't find much, but I could reliably expect for an hour or so of mining to get at least 1-2 saltpeter deposits, now though absolutely none seem to be showing up. In desperation I've tried all the settings possible on the pickaxe for ore, ore and stones, ore and gems - couple of hours on each setting made no difference, still no saltpeter. Tried varying the luck on my miner up to the mid 1400s, still nothing.He's 100 skill plus mining gloves, and never had any difficulty getting the stuff in the past.
Anyone else having this issue? I'm certainly not going to buy the stuff off the NPCs, who are currently asking 250 per 'unit', since 6 are needed to make a single black powder!
