This makes no sense. Glad its working for you but i wonder if you are seeing causation when it should be correlation.
Not true. At times, I will accidentally hit my finder and not my extractor and find 2 claims right on top of a single claim. I don't recommend double bombing in a single area but the notion you find all the resources within a given radius on the first drop is false.
Mining for 2 weeks on ark now and didn't use 1 ammo.... so I should only find tiny'? lol. Prolly the bigger claims I get are a mistake then and since I rarely get a nothing found It's all about skills, how you mine, where you mine, finder you use simple as that. It has nothing to do with hunting in between.
You've been doing crafting in that time, which I believe has a similar effect to hunting. A number of years ago, someone from Mindark mentioned that doing multiple professions can improve your returns. I'm merely confirming that this mechanism still exists. I don't know how it all works. I never said you will find all claims with a single drop. I can see how you would misunderstand my statement though, so I'll clarify it: And of course there is a chance that a claim will spawn closer to your position between the first drop and the second, depending on how quickly you re-drop.
