Illumous✭✭✭To me the drop rate seems reasonable... It's just I feel we should also be able to loot it off everything in Upper Craglorn including mobs, crates, chests, and especially as rewards for clearing Nirncrux Mines (cause that actually makes sense).Sol-Illumous | Breton Templar | Mag Support/Healer | EP

NukaCola✭✭✭This is perfect as it is. Its good that Nirncrux is hard to find. I sell a couple of these a day for 25k each. They should make more rare stuff like this. Keep gathering and exploring useful in the game. This makes crafting better and more profitable. More relevant. I want something else to do than run stupid trials.
When they one day come up with player housing. I want it to be an insane farming fest of rare crap that makes everyone cry for at least year. No sarcasm.7 -
rophez_ESO✭✭✭✭✭If they want Cyrodiil to be the endgame, why is everything there VR5? Why not put V14 nodes in Cyrodiil and allow the same chance to get nirnhoned stuff. Maybe then Cyrodiil won't be a ghost town in all but 1 campaign.4

how did it screw over people with real crafter characters?
If people weren't researching it on alts, no one would have the ability to make it for... real crafter characters. We'd all have to wait a month for even a few to become readily available.
There are two issues here. One is churning out lvl1 gear for research. The other is making end game gear. In my mind, the issue is mainly with respect to end game gear.
The problem arises because a 3 trait set like Seducer or a 6 trait set like Hundig's Rage is more valuable than any 8 trait set. You can craft level an alt to 40 in a given craft and churn out nirn traited Seducer in a few days tops, less than 2 weeks for Hundigs. That is a pimp slap to the face of any serious crafter who has to wait 30 days on their main to do the same. Why should a lvl1 alt be able to make end game gear with the latest and greatest trait when a toon that has had hundreds of hours invested into it cannot? They should have limited nirn research to a ninth trait or, for those of you who just can't wait, made the new passive allow a ninth trait to be researched in the ~5 hours it takes to research a first trait.
I would have thought that zos failed to comprehend the impact of what they were doing because they added a passive that limits research time for a 9th trait to 30 days. I mean, why would you do that when lvl1 toons can make the gear anyway? However, the sheer ignorance of crafting required to make that bungle leads me to believe that this is an intended outcome. I still haven't been able to come up with a purpose for it though, except an equally foolish desire to implement an additional time sink, consequences be damned.
With respect to churning out lvl1 gear to sell for research, some people craft on all 8 toons and research on all 8 toons. There is no particular reason to research on all of them, but hey, it's part of advancing you character, it's almost free, so why not. Who knows, one day you might be able to split accounts like in other games.
Well, months into the game we find out the "why not" is because of the idiotic way the trait was introduced. So, yeah, at least a few serious crafters need a new account to do the same as casual or noncrafters...

as much as I would be okay with that, most people that go to cyrodiil don't go to harvest.
I would settle for vr14 nodes, and no chance of nirnhone. You don't really have to pve to harvest in craglorn though. It's sort of a crafter based activity.Dear Sister, I do not spread rumors, I create them.0 -

there is probably an upper limit of players you want to have gathering in a few areas, things already get laggy.
The problem we are seeing is that everyone wants to be in the campaign where the action already is. Hence Thornblade (NA at least) get locked quick, and then I don't know where everyone else goes. TBH I think most people just suffer through the queues. Oddly, there were more active campaigns when there were more campaigns total.

A crafting daily would the cookie cutter way of doing it. It doesn't have to be just that. These quests could have relevant impact on the keep sieges. And yes these gatherers could be an excellent way to get some extra kills. Little skirmishes and 1 on 1 fights don't exists in this game atm. This is getting wildly off topic btw
Point is don't thumb down crafting. Let there be hard to get materials and hard to craft items. And have those have impact in PvP aswell.

✭✭✭If Cyrodiil crafting quests are added, I would imagine most people will pick up the quests, go to a PVE zone to gather the mats and then return to Cyrodiil to craft and complete the quests.
Back on topic though. The weapon drop rarity is where people should make their gold. The rarity of these crafting stones - rare enough for people to command 25K per stone - is absurd. That example alone should be sufficient for ZOS to change how this stone is acquired.1 -

In fact, there is a fairly decent rational for the increased rarity ... the relative power of the trait. I don't have numericals for the armor trait (and besides, there's nothing to compare it with), but here's a few scores I get out of my crafting UI :
- Defending : Increase total Armor and Spell Resistance by 4%
- Sharpened : Increase Armor and Spell Penetration by 6%
- Nirnhoned : Increase Spell Resistance and Spell Penetration by 10%
Now, unless ZoS thinks armor and armor penetration are vastly more desirable than spell resistance (I don't), it's pretty clear that "Nirhoned" is roughly twice as strong as a "normal" trait. That alone should make it rarer.
I'd argue that the increased rarity should be similar to legendary crafting mats.
What you describe seems to like ... maybe they're overdone it.LonePirate wrote: »Worst of all, a PVP player has no means whatsoever of obtaining these stones. Whose "bright" idea was this?
Solo players are given the shaft too. We do have a way though : trading
My spell resistance is already soft capped with just five pieces of light armor and some light armor passives. The additional spell resistance from this trait is of little use to me, especially at the sacrifice of more beneficial traits like Divines, Impenetrable and Infused.
As for the spell penetration aspect, my spell damage is already close to 120 with some set bonuses and enchantments. While spell penetration and spell damage are not the same, the trade off between what I have now without the Nirnhoned trait and what I gain and lose (spell crit) with it are just not worth it. Basically, these new traits are not significantly better than the other traits and they certainly are not so much better that they warrant their current rarity.
As for trading, the cheapest piece of Nirnhoned level 1 research gear Ingave seen was a single piece going for 25K. Every other piece I have seen has been in the 40K-60K price range. Those prices put the pieces out of reach for many players. Those who do buy them can usually only afford a couple of pieces at most. Or am I mistaken and we have numerous players running around with 7 or more figures worth of gold?
Players who got lucky, or have been here consistently from the beginning, sold their drops, and never repaired their gear? I could easily see them in the mid 6 figures, without even buying and flipping stuff.
Remember, at launch you could make massive amounts of gold through provisioning just by processing the crap you found in town and vendoring it. I'm talking 7k for just looting Vulkel Guard or Daggerfall a couple times. To say nothing of the guild bank duplication exploit back at launch, which you could use to get absurd amounts of crap.
I think at one point there was an alchemy exploit, though I don't know what it was.
Yeah, it wouldn't surprise me if there are a few, particularly players who farmed the crap out of the Vet and Vet + zones at launch, who're now sitting on 7 figures.
I have high six figures in my bank. I never took advantage of any game exploits, didn't sell common goods at outrageous prices. Point being, it's not that hard to accrue a large amount of gold. I just sell a small variety of common items. I price items to be competitive, not always the lowest, but never the highest. Posting broad generalizations about other players is bound to rub other players the wrong way. Oh,,,,,, and I never buy things like Nirnhoned for outrageous prices.
Well, then, go back and read what I wrote again. I said without doing anything shady or dubious and without participating in the market (which you did), I could easily see some players being in the mid 6 figures now. For people who did either of those things I could see them sitting in the 7 figure range easily.0 -
AssaultLemming✭✭✭✭I have to say the drop rate from nodes is just right, it feels the same as the chance to get a yellow enchant from enchanting nodes. When you do find one it feels like you found something awesome rather than another piece of crap. My only wish is that they should add them to the cyrodiil nodes and double the chance of them dropping in cyrodiil, it would draw more people to farm there and provide some point for crafters and harvesters to be exposed to PvP.0

Without them, almost no one would bother completing those quests, just like very few people have completed the quests in Lower Craglorn (which are required to finish the Upper Craglorn quests, btw).
Anyway, it is the absurd rarity of the two types of Nirncrux stones that really boils my blood. There is absolutely no reason for this rarity. The drop rate for these stones within the harvested nodes is almost as low as the drop rate for the purple recipes before they were made more accessible several weeks back. I have harvested hundreds of nodes and have received one single stone. Prices for these stones are through the roof which is insane.
Not only that but during peak hours, the competition between players for the harvesting nodes is almost as intense as it was when bots were monopolizing the nodes many months ago. Why did ZOS need to create another situation like that one? Worst of all, a PVP player has no means whatsoever of obtaining these stones. Whose "bright" idea was this?
I dumped skill points in the hirelings for Blacksmithing, Clothing and Woodworking so they would gather items like these Nirncrux stones and send them to me. There is no reason why these stones cannot be sent by hirelings or obtained by refining materials. ZOS needs to change how these Nirncrux stones are obtained as the current methods are nonsensical to say the least.
I disagree COMPLETELY! Name 1 thing besides legendary mats in this game that is this rare. Rare is good, this game needs more things that are rare. Right now most things are way too easy to get. I'm glad there's finally one item in this game with a really low drop rate. Btw, I've spent maybe 6-8 hrs of harvesting nodes for this stuff and I have 3 Fortified Nirncrux and 1 Potent Nirncrux. Not to mention all the other mats I got out of refining all the stuff I harvested. It's been fun and I'm glad they've set it up this way.Ebonheart Pact

FoxyKitten✭✭OK, I didn't read through all this thread but I'm V14 and have not finished lower Craglorn and hardly any upper but have still found both types of Nrincrux in upper so no quest requirements are needed to successfully farm the stones as long as you have access to upper Crag. I've also bought both types from chat at 12-15G. I didn't notice which nodes gave the stones except that a piece of wood dropped one. Someone told me that those Willia (sp) beasts in upper drop it sometimes but they are usually in a pack of 5-6, but 2 of them are always 10,000 health each. If there are no 10,000's you are probably not in upper. If you just want to craft the gear with that trait so you can sell it to those in need, once you find a stone, chat out to someone who has the skill to craft you a white lvl 1 piece (now going for 3-5 k) and then research it on your lower lvl toon and it will be done in 6 hours. And if everyone did this, and in turn sold the pieces at these lower prices, it would help bring down the price big time. Problem is, most people are selfish and greedy so the price stays high. If we all stuck together as one we could manipulate the market to a sane level. But if you want to craft high level gear with the trait, you will have to spend 30 days on each piece, and that is with all your gear crafting skills maxed. But I agreed wholeheartedly that this is really a stupid state of affairs and I would love to punch the knuckleheaded Devs in the face who came up with this extremely annoying idea. This game is supposed to be fun, not an exercise in frustration and futility. I've had ***, A-hole players sneak up behind me and grab a node while I was waiting for those wasps to turn away.0
