Has anyone else noted the removal of choice Big shell from Thesos, is anyone bothered except me, or has I become available only at 4 am in the morning.
I don't see the point of roaming the lands looking for the mats I need and marking them up only to come back and find some over zealous Dev has decided its too easy to get to, or what ever the reason.
The same in PR but in that instant they just cover them with agro mobs.
Yes Im having a moan.

This maybe teaching grandma to suck eggs.... but has the season changed and the shell is now replaced with something esle?
In Tryker some mats move with the season changes, some are always available and some get swapped with others.
As for the prime roots there is more than one oil spot in the trench of trials

Ah now that could be a possibility, how long is a season, I have been back for the last 4 days running with no luck.borg9 wrote:This maybe teaching grandma to suck eggs.... but has the season changed and the shell is now replaced with something esle?

hmm and as for oil in the trench yes there is more than one, both the lower two now have mobs on them, so why bother putting mats there. So its up to Darken and what fun that is.
And no youre not teaching your granny, youre teaching me, I only just started the harvesting lark so any help is appreciated. Thxs

In Fyros, you have the same problem that us Trykers have, this is that there are no visible signs of seasons! (However we have started getting snow in Tryker since patch 1, Global warming anyone!)
Matis and Zorai have full seasons the graphics change, which is nice.
So you need to ask a Matis/Zorai which season it is - I can't remeber but I think a year in game time is about a week in real time (maybe faster).
In the roots the aggro I don't beleive is randomly placed or placed to protect mats

Also - some mats overlay each other (nice feature IMO) so prospecting specific mats is useful here.
Also check the spot with find any grade (upto supreme prospecting stanza).
Or use a multi-spot with wide angle short range and knowledge.
I am in the process of travelling through the Hidden source to Theos. So I will try and find your spot should I ever reach there

BTW the Fyros are such a lucky race to have ql200+ mat spots on the door step of one of your towns...... if only the other races were so luck.
I think Zorai (land of little aggro) have the best foraging site (yet to prove this for myself), but I guess they need something to make up for being blue. Next is the Fyros - with close to town foraging. Tryker have the Lagoons and the poor old Matis have the roughest time (maybe Double Tap would disagree).
If you need help send me a tell ingame.

Anyway, one trick I use to search fields is to use one action with 'find up to Fine mats' brick. Throw this action around just to see what's there (works very well with knowledge 2) and if you get a message that there are mats your action can't find, you know that spot is at least choice, so you can switch to a 'find Choice mats only' action to harvest it (adjusting of course for Excellent/Supreme sources.
Not exactly on the subject at hand, but I think it's a good way to map a field and see what's there.

You are quite possibly right but in which case the God of mob agro should move his desk closer to the God of mats.
I will sacrifice 50 Yubo to each in the hope of more sense kicking in.

Soulsnatcher could you suggest an office reshuffle to the dev team

Remember Soul I know where you live (Klients, not your home address

50xYubo per hour could be arranged. Alternatively we could kidnap Shadowwe and hold her for ransom

Now thats an excellent point, thats what we need in this game.
A clock/timer of some sort, something that lets us know the Season, time of day, something that gives you more prospective on your place in this world.
Dev's take note!
as it is when you are in PR u don't even know if its night or day ( heh thats a thought i havent seen a Atys night for a while have they got shorter or do i just keep missing them)

Re: Missing Mats
Technically Fyros does not have seasons so why should there be seasonal migrations of mobs and resources ?

Re: Missing Mats
Yes Fyros has seasons, just like everywhere else. And, yes, the season has changed and your shell is not available in this season. (which you would have known if you had tracked for it
) Nothing to do with devs moving/changing stuff.
