What Drives Diggers Crazy

[kekulus]

Your Greslin pick pops a node that cannot explode, and the source content is ten.

You pop a sup node, and your pick breaks.

Just as you approach your favorite Excellent, the rain stops and the clouds part. Oh well, you port back to your favorite picnic spot to enjoy the sunshine, and as soon as your blanket is spread and your food is laid out, a downpour ruins your meal.

Chat plus Dig equals BOOM!!!

Chat plus Dig plus Letting your friend dig your extra nodes equals BOOM!!! (times two)

You both were using careplanners equals BOOM!!! (times four)

Your first dig in Enchanted Isle, you see Lerching approaching, and flee from him straight into a herd of Zerx.

As your respawn counter reaches zero, you realize that Lerching is actually friendly.

A fat bodoc stepping on my fingers while digging

you blow yourself on the first noe of sup, you respawn and hasten back, good Ma-Duk, its still there! you start digging and notice your focus was still down to 300...

Just a word:

Thought about it for a bit, desided nothing thats bad about digging i like it lol

having to deal with zatchel gets a little annoying but nothing too bad, digging has kept me in game this far

[nulsul]

20 critters all deciding to take a nap in the exact spot i want to forrage

a carnivore deciding he wants to snack on one of those 20 critters ~.~

Cherkin

Finding a new forraging spot not surronded by aggro


Actually... none of this is really that bad. Digging is quite enjoyable =D

[tylarth]

after a few hrs waiting the sup pops... and so do the lumpers+ yelks, and then the vorax come.

blowing up on the last few digs of a bag.. so craft is delayed by need of further diging a new bag to shift dp.

[acridiel]

You just swing your first Dig at the normaly absolutely save Sup-Sha Source in Nexus and an Yelk drags a Torbak up into aggro range. Yelk dies, Torbak sees you, Torbak hits you a few times, before you can get up, then you hit speed, you finally start to run and die from one tick of dmg in the gas cloud...

Just happened to me 20 minutes ago...

Yea that i agree with, its 100% safe to sit in PR while choice is up, second supreme pops mobs just start aiming for you

[calel]

Rofl, I can pretty much relate to all those examples. I'll add some of my own if you don't mind?


Your Greslin pick pops a non-explodable source with content of 30, you go full harmfull and manage to gather 26 in one pull, when WHAM, you end up getting eaten by a Vorax before you can click 'pick up'.

Riding your mektoub to GoC only to notice on arrival you forgot to bring a pick.

Tell windows during foraging.

You dodge hordes of Vorax to reach a supreme deposit, using all your powers in the progress, only to notice some factioned player beat you to it. And then Raj eats you.

Forgetting to back up your save folder and losing all your markers.

Vorax season on supernodes.

Lumpers dragging Vorax on you.

Vorax.

And Raj.

Waiting till the last moment to apply careplan actions, then you get struck by the 'FS Lost' monster.

Kilgoretrout 'foraging' your packed lunch.

Noticing at higher levels the Tryker foraging Rite reward is actually very very bad since it's not optional.

Foraging for mission materials without maps.

Kipees, shalahs, aranas, gubannis, armas, wombai, bolobi, bodocs and especially lumpers that coincidently all need to flock towards your foraging spots!

Someone who got all but 2 materials out of that supreme material deposit.

Gathering 19.9 materials.


There's probably a bunch more I can't come up with right now.

Can anyone make me a set of q20 sup armor?
