    I'm thinking the same. a mining area now seems either empty, or full.

    ...Apologies to @HogwinHD for somewhat messing around with the themes in his OP. we shoudl really relocate this ore spawn stuff to here..https://www.shroudoftheavatar.com/forum/index.php?threads/known-r58-low-encounter-resources.143228/

    So the developers should ignore that everyone is ignoring the majority of the scenes in game, not because of fun, but because of efficiency?

    The will of grinders should supercede the developers interest in creating an interesting game?

    Sorry, I don't sympathize in the slightest. UT/mage room is a very boring game. If they leave it as a shortcut past the rest of the game, they are sabotaging not only their current content, but any attempts they make at new content.

    Their job isn't to please 300 people that have dedicated their time to grinding, their job is to produce a game with potential mass appeal.

    Ok final results and comparison.

    While I appreciate there's some wiggle room here based on walking around time and such in both examples - I think these numbers speak for themselves.
    All variables the same -I haven't levelled any skills, or changed my deck, etc.

    • The number of nodes that spawned (and were mined) in an hour is SIGNIFICANTLY less - almost as bad as half.
    • Long periods of time were spent standing around with nothing in the entire place to mine.
    • I did seem to be meticulousing a fair amount, which is why the iron figure isn't as bad as I expect it could have been. (Anecdotal)

    CONCLUSION:

    Mines are NOT fixed.
    The insta-refill mechanic is definitely new, but it happens infrequently enough you can empty the whole mine and twiddle.
    This is just going to encourage people to "force reset" scenes instead of standing around waiting.
    Overall, ore acquisition is nowhere near what it was last release.

    But the extra 313 gold is supposed to be the off set for all the changes

    Hi Lady K, Steevo linked it above for the encounter resource thread. But that's been resolved as well....?

    I've made a new /bug thread here
    https://www.shroudoftheavatar.com/f...not-functioning-properly.143531/#post-1158980

    With the Patch 842 behavior specifically, not the original issue from 840 which has been "changed" (I wont say "fixed")...

    I as well, player made dungeons is not the same as what the devs can make. I sure hope if they put in more Dungeons, they make it soloable .

    Constant balancing is part of every mmoish game. Better get used to it.

    I think it would be pretty great if there was 1 non-soloable dungeon besides ruined with bugs keep

    True enough but I think it to quite alot of people at present seems more like lurching one way and then the other rather than "balancing"

    Maybe. But that will always happen. It even happens to wow from time to time and they have a lot more training.
    So, better get used to it.
