You actually don't need the passive nor this add-on if you train your eyes to identify the nodes. I need none and can spot them pretty easy.

However! Seeing that this add-on gives you basically x-ray vision and identifies nodes behind solid objects well... Some might see it with judgmental eyes if you get my meaning. Needless to say its a handy perk indeed.

I think this add on is basically cheating.

I basically makes passives in the game useless.

There is a different between highlighting nodes in your line of sight and x ray vision.

If you'd start looking for nodes instead of glowing indicators you wouldn't need the passives or the add-on. But hey, more clutter on the screen is better, right?

I would just like to add that the pins showing where nodes are located ONLY works on those that you have already found the old fashioned way. It does not give you any advantage other than the ability to see them easier once you know where they are located.

Unless you are blind there is no need for the skill anyways as the nodes especially the good ones stick out like a sore thumb.

Milvan

Do you actually need that? I mean there is nodes everywhere, I used to use harverstmap as well but then I realize that I didn't need it at all.

And for what? 15 skill points? OP get yourself together.

Oh god, makes the game look horrid. Keen eye is at least slightly more immersive.

Erik_Darksinger

Even with this Addon, I still find more than a few nodes that I have not previously found before. I still use the Keen Eye Passives, but I rarely spend more than 1 skill pt on each skill. To combat this, I will often farm for resource nodes when it is either night time or just after the sun has set. The glpw stands out a lot more when you do not have the bright sun dimming them.

One of the best places this works is either in zones with a lot of snow or sand, such as Eastmarch or Alik'r Desert.

Here is a simple tip for farming mats et al.; on PC/Mac, turn graphics settings down to minimal and all of the "window dressing" like grass et al. is gone so seeing things is trivial.

Ah all the naysayers as usual. You do realise he'll be able to turn it off at the click of a button.
I'm a console player, it'd be nice if we had this kind of stuff but I'm not a farmer so it doesn't affect me.

And the mod name is?

By master race, do you mean the platform that requires the least amount of brain power? It bothers me knowing that they'll probably bring buff timers to console one day.

Well that IS a good thing especially for sorcs in cyrodiil since in extreme lag the frags proc visual may not fire.

Dread_Viking

you can also just turn off grass and get better preformens

Turn off Grass, all nodes are revealed. No add on needed

Nodes remind me of Scooby Do and other cartoons of that era. Remember those "hidden" doors you could see a mile away because of the color difference? Nodes are exactly the same they always seem to load before everything else so a real keen eye is all you need and you can see them for at least double the range of the highest level passive.

All of you with 'trained' eyes to spot all the nodes have no idea how many you are actually missing..

This is pretty cool, I'll give it a shot, thanks for sharing.

I have the same ad-on, still handy to have the passive as the markers do not show until after you have found the mats. Harvest Map it is called if anyone is interested.

i have all markers without harvesting single node
read page of addon how to get file with all markers in the game

@ConeOfSilence

IronCrystal

I use the same addon but I immediately turned off the 3D markers as they are ugly af and clutter the UI.

Also, they aren't specifying where they are exactly all they do is say "you found one here before". Sure if you find them all there's a good chance one is there unless someone else is farming them.

As other's said, I find them way faster just by looking around. Especially since the highest tier mats are RED.

"there is a trait to make nodes WAY more visible...NOPE, im going to TRAIN MY EYES to be able to see it better, because getting 3 skillpoints is ahrd and having way higher chances of not missing out on nodes is worthless"-- wierdos in games.



"train your eyes" ?!?! its a damn GAME!...plus its GUARANTEED that you are missing nodes, it doesn't matter how "trained" you are.

This is not entirely true, the harvest node map addon has the ability to be sync'd with a database of all known nodes in the game. Basically people upload their own files to the database and they all get added together, you can then download the master file into your addon folder and see all the stuff found by anyone whose uploaded, which is virtually any node.

Edit to add: I use harvest map with my own discoveries and still use keen eye because those giant pins are ugly as heck and I've turned them off.

Law books, Skyshard Hunter, Advanced UI, Master Merchant, Dustman, Craft Store Improved, Destinations, Combat Metrics and even a clock so I can tell the time. Life is good over here on the P.C.

Pendrillion

OP: I usually dont use 15 SPs to enhance my finding of the nodes. Mainly because one point spent usually does the trick for me. And it keeps the system from ruining the landscape.

Those Icons would annoy me. But yeah... crafty to have it..

captainwolfos

I just turn off grass.

Anything that isn't grass is generally pick-up-able.

MasterSpatula

If you can stand the world looking like that, more power to you.
