easy fix to this "problem" - just make the spots change once a month - most scripters are too lazy to go out and find the new spots every month but people mining by hand might find a few and be able to milk them a bit before the month is up
It is a big world with a lot of mining spots. At the time they ruined mining, I had 13 runebooks filled with Val ore spots and was always finding a new one. That was from years of prospecting. My vote is just simply revert it to pre nerf and let us spend years more prospecting and marking the runes for the books.I like the changing once a month idea - as I'll admit that while currently it's frustrating to gather resources when you need them in bulk, I would miss that "Whoot! Valorite!" feeling when you run across one. It really wouldn't take me long to map out my favorite spots and then I'd be done and redoing them once a month wouldn't be bad at all, IMHO.
yeah, but remember when that was the case, I would be sitting at a valorite spot and you could just watch the steady procession of script miners recalling in and out and emptying out the spot all day every day - your "rosy" 20/20 hindsight is a little blurryIt is a big world with a lot of mining spots.

Nope it isn't blurry at all, not saying they didn't exist. They were much easier to deal with, avoided fel and were not flooding the market with cheap resources. 60k iron igs are dirt cheap now heck even 60k valorite are cheap and there is a endless supply of them. Legit miners and LJs were pretty much gone after they fixed it and the only ones mining and Ljing seriously after and to present are the bots. That is not Rosy it is fact.yeah, but remember when that was the case, I would be sitting at a valorite spot and you could just watch the steady procession of script miners recalling in and out and emptying out the spot all day every day - your "rosy" 20/20 hindsight is a little blurry
