nice move. switching out devils tail and dianthus liquid with sweetstuff and cave sap. makes me CURSE alot, which i won't repeat here, especially so using amps. bloody hell, find a usefull mining spot and have it changed with resources worth absolutely NOTHING.
save to say i did try the new pvp area. found plenty of resources with decent markup, but not a single devils tail or dianthus claim yet. The change, as mentioned, pissed me of. not the first time things changed and i had to adapt, but having my best mining grounds completely changed to drop nothing but tt crap (even the normal stuff was gone), that hurt. and no, there was no change in landscape or creatures, just the resource map.
Its all done to bring the rich kids from Caly here to play mate.. Unless you are one of those special 12 or so players you are merely here to pay for their fun...Look at EU's entire history and you will see. Putting all the good stuff in PVP where there are mobs in there that have high agro and can one shot all but the top level players proves that. By putting all the good stuff in mob spawns they guarantee the avg miner has no chance to get any of it and forces them to become hunters. This way the uber hunters can go at will into the pvp areas after scoring high losses in hunting and drop a few random probes to receive their pay backs.
I'm seeing plenty of dianthus and devil's tail, so I think you're just not looking in the right areas. Addition of sweetstuff I agree with you, but let's hope that was in preparation for taming coming next VU!
What I really want to hear is that the new Arkadia specific ores\enmatter\treasures are starting to turn up more. Diagen, Bodai, Alkar, Quenta, Starrix and many more. Any good news on this?
have been strolling the new pvp area, and unless you need a deeper finder for it, I have not found it there yet. Plenty of other things, but none on your list.
oh, i'm sure it is still out there, but it seems the locations for it have changed. I tried a few other spots that i knew had the stuff (just worse mix-materials) but they didnt show any either.
Fact is, the rich kids of Calypso simply won't come here until the auctions are synchronised and the selfish f***s at MA have confirmed that this isn't an option. Of course, they would never allow the centre of the universe to be anywhere than Calypso and they can't keep people there on merit alone once people leave. They know this, we know this. This just increases space travel but does nothing to help the eternal problem that will become the market area. Also with regards to finding a good spot and someone changing it. In an MMO the goal posts are always being moved, unfortunately this is a fact of MMO gaming and it'd be a good idea that everyone get used to the idea of good things changing rather than not changing and so people take advantage whilst they can once they spot a good thing rather than assume it'll always be there and not use it too much and be gutted when its gone. My advice, if you spot something which you can take advantage of that isn't an exploit, exploit it.
Does not seem so. I can't say anything about the treasures but the ores and enmats don't seem to be dropping more of those rares. Could just be too early to tell, sometimes loot needs a few days for the loot balancer to wake up and press the loot button.
