I don't want this much Rubedite Ore!

Why did zos attach the jewelry ores to the regular mining ore nodes? Now to get to the Platinum and Pewter I am forced to mine all the Rubedite in hopes the node will revert. Then someone else comes in behind me and gets the reversion and I end up with mountain stacks of Rubedite.
Why zos don't you put down NEW jewelry only ore nodes in the lagless zones no one visits?

✭✭✭✭✭And then there are those who skip the Rubedite Ore nodes entirely not thinking about it coming back as a JC node the next time around.3 -
phermitgb✭✭✭✭✭not kidding or mocking - I have no idea what you're talking about - have they introduced a new ore node? I'm guessing it has something to do with the new jewelry crafting resources? but are you saying that the jewelrycrafting nodes only proc after someone has mined an ore node?

Metalworking ores and jewelry nodes share the same spawn point. So it either spawns as jewelry or metalworking node. Means if some node has spawned as ore it has to be farmed in order to maybe spawn as jewelry node.3 -

✭Considering you can hold an infinite amount without it taking up inventory space, and it's highly valuable, is it really an issue?2 -

Jewelry ore spawns in every zone, you just need to go to a zone where there are stuff all people

✭✭✭✭✭The only right implementation from ZOS on this would have been to add completely new node spawn points for this new resource, which they could make as common or rare as they like.
Instead they went the incredibly daft and lazy route of simply turning X% of their ore nodes into jewelry nodes instead.
The fact that it completely ruins the balance and market for all ore related goods seem to have gone completely over their head, not to mention you now can't farm specifically for neither ore nor jewelry mats, since they share the same spawn points and forces you to do them simultaneously.
So many headaches are coming out of this, for crafters, for traders, for farmers, and by proxy for everyone else who rely on them. And all of this could have been avoided by someone spending a few days going through all the zones and adding new nodes, heck, you could even get some interns to do that job for you.
Left-handed half-arsed lazy man's implementation of jewelrynodes ...

Then you cry about the FPS drops, increased load times, and extra lag from all the new crap the game's populating zones with.
So because they don't take your narrowminded approach they're lazy and daft?2 -

If your gaming device breaks down due to a new resource being added with perhaps 1/3rd of the density of the other 3, then I feel mightily sorry for you.
I just gave you several reason why it's daft, objective reasons that we're already seeing play out even just a few days after early access. You are offering a response of no objective or informative value.3 -

Some of us actually participated extensively on the PTS, and there was plenty of collective feedback highlighting exactly this issue, and how lazily it was implemented. But sure, go ahead with your ad hominem insults. Twice your posts have shown that you bring nothing informative to the discussion, so I think our correspondence ends here with a heartily "fare thee well".Carbonised wrote: »The only right implementation from ZOS on this would have been to add completely new node spawn points for this new resource, which they could make as common or rare as they like.

Yes, that was another half-arsed left-handed etc etc implementation.
At least you can see the Psijic portals as a sort of "bonus", I mean, they do give off runes from drops, and you don't specifically need to farm portals for anything, they just drop the normal stuff you would otherwise find in the zone such as set pieces and motifs.
Jewelrynodes, on the other hand, need farming because they mats aren't obtainable anywhere else in the game, not even through hirelings, and you need them to make jewelry items, to upgrade existing jewelry and craft jewelry related furniture.
So while the implementation is the same for the two things, it hurts jewelrycrafting, and indirectly blacksmithing crafting, a lot more than the Psijic portals hurt enchanting.0 -
Matei✭✭I guess i missed this in all the information, i didnt know it worked this way.
But i have been mining any node that i come across, im not bothered.

Why zos don't you put down NEW jewelry only ore nodes in the lagless zones no one visits?
This is the same argument as the one for:- half-pillaged rune nodes
- half-pillaged chests
- Simple chests that remain abandoned and untouched
When I farm, I take everything, including the torch bugs. Its sorts itself out later.
