The Nightmare of All Miners

Recommended Posts

Miners and herbalists have had one giant issue for the past many, many years as they would fly or ride in to get that lovely node or herb, only to have it fade out of existence the moment they start harvesting it. Well today we might just have the pinnacle of that particular sharding problem, as WarsongNr had an extremely nightmarish mining experience.

It's difficult to explain just how frustrating this is if you haven't run into it (although if you ever used mining or herbalism, you definitely have), as it's hard not to take it personally when a node sees you coming and then elects to dissipate out of existence rather than have you harvest it. However, this particular example is very extreme and I never ran into anything close to this in 19 years of harvesting. It's also pretty hilarious when it's not happening to you, so WarsongNr, we salute and thank you!

When Uldum was new I encountered this with herbs quite a bit.

Also in the hill caves at the shore near Lunarfall (WoD) there's a chest you have to sneak up on from the right side of the map shard border.   I've seen one like that in Highmountain too.

So 3 nodes (in very close proximity) that someone else likely harvested 5 minutes ago finally despawned one after the other? Yeah, not a bug, not an issue, that's just how it works. If I knew this was news, I would have been recording the other day when I had 15+ disappear on me in < 30 minutes. 🙄

its been an issue for many many years so... what you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

The weirdest thing is seeing a 'ball' of ore floating in the sky. Only for you to not find a ledge to mine it from.

Herbs have been somewhat fine but Ore... Ore is Chaotic evil in this game.

It's a real bummer when you use the node overload and it despawns before you can collect and or mine off the node 😕  had that happen at least 5x while on my Evoker during DF.

A lot of the time, I've seen this when someone is doing a multibox gathering setup. They have several toons all together that all come in and mine the node. Nodes only have 10 "charges" to be mined, so if someone comes in with their 10 druids, they can nuke each node in turn out of existence. I've seen that less this xpac, since it's much harder to multiboxers to keep a bunch of dragons flying together than it is for them to keep a bunch of druids in flight form together.

      Executive Producer Holly Longdale teased some upcoming experimental PvE-focused content that Blizzard will soon reveal to the community.
      It appears that Plunderstorm isn't the only new mode Blizzard plans to add to WoW this year.
      Holly Longdale today teased an upcoming PvE-oriented event that will soon be revealed to us. Holly might be talking about the "Timerunning Pandamonium," expected in Patch 10.2.7.
      (Source)
      Greetings Citizens of Azeroth,
      It’s been great seeing so many players taking the plunge into Plunderstorm and we’ve loved seeing all of the stories and feedback as this experimental event evolves. It will be exciting to see some of the community content creators going head-to-head as duos during the Plunderstorm Creator Royale on March 30!  This isn’t the end of the things we want to try in World of Warcraft, however, and we have more in store we can’t wait to show you.
      Dragonflight Season 4 is in route as testing begins on the PTR and we’ll have more news to share soon™ on the next experiment we have up our sleeves. We hope those of you who are looking for PvE focused content will enjoy what we’re planning, all while we continue to press forward on development of our next expansion for World of Warcraft— The War Within.
      We can’t wait to share with you all the many things the team has been hard at work on.
      With gratitude and excitement for what we’ll do together next,
      Holly Longdale

      We've looked at the Mythic+ Tier List for the first time in Patch 10.2.6!
      DISCLAIMER
      The following post is based on data from U.GG. Therefore, the data presented here may differ from Petko's Mythic Tier Lists maintained on our site.

      U.GG's tier list is created by evaluating damage and healing scores from the very best players and factoring in the frequency of each spec's appearances in the highest rankings of the current Mythic+ season. The tier list of each spec is determined by its effectiveness and prevalence at the highest levels of Mythic+ play.

      Dragonflight Season 4 adds a new world quest for Spark of Awakening.
      To get your Spark of Awakening, you must complete a different quest every week.
      The weekly quest is available from Therazal in central Valdrakken. There are 3 options, but only one is active every week, similar to how Awakened raids rotate.

      Dragon Isles Quest
      Participate in a Community Feast Participate in a Hunt Lay siege to Dragonbane Keep Zaralek Cavern Quest
      Protect the Researchers Under Fire Loot a Secured Shipment (Suffusion Camp) Complete a Time Rift Amirdrassil Quest
      Earn 50 Bloom during the Superbloom Complete a Superbloom Plant 3 Dreamseeds Quest Rewards
      Completing any of the 3 quests above grants the Season 4 spark fragment (Splintered Spark of Awakening) via Weekly Awakened Activity and a Cache of Awakened Storms.
      You will need two Splintered Spark of Awakening and 250 Flightstones to create one Spark of Awakening.
