I am not sure if this is the correct place to post this, but it needs to be said. I can find iron nodes, or wood nodes ALL over the place, but alchemy ingredients.....they just aren't there......there needs to be a significant increase in the alchemy ingredients around tamriel.
O.O You are very lucky then, I must have run around outside of The starting city for the Dominion for an hour and found a whole 3 nodes with keen eye perked -_-
I agree, if resources are going to be a cluster *** fight everyone for the node like it is currently then the spawn rates of everything, and the number of the nodes in general need to be bumped up dramatically from what its at right now.
I find ore and wood all over the place, but very few alchemy ingredients and little to no enchanting things. Then, when I do find something, typically there are a few other people running around fighting for it.
Just because some people have no problem finding nodes does not mean EVERYONE is capable of finding nodes as easily. Clearly these people are the ones finding them before others can get to them, and the respawn rate (while fast) isn't THAT fast.
My suggestion? Do what GW2 does and keep the current node amount the same, but make them YOURS only, the way bags/dressers/other loot objects (besides lock boxes) are. At least that's what I would like to see personally.

They are probably being harvested by the invisible harvest bots. Sadly, those need fixed long before they add more nodes for these goofs to teleport to.
