NEED Instanced Nodes/Resources

They really need to instance more things in this game.

For example: Resource Nodes like wood, ore, and fabrics should be instanced to the player.
Obviously this would mean that the respawn rate for most areas would have to be lowered significantly.

This would prevent a lot of hostility between players. Such as in high density areas like start zones for each faction and Craglorn.
In these areas most resources are so picked over its rare to find nodes at peak times.

I can't even begin to tell you how many times I've seen multiple players run at a single node.
Often times this results in mildly offensive shouting matches and lude name-calling.
They go something like this: (warning offensive language ahead: )
"You thief!"
"Suck it ***"
"*** you"
"Lololol eat ***."
Instancing resource nodes would put an end to this sort of head-ache and lead to a much more enjoyable gaming experience.

And don't even get me started on safe-boxes. Those things are always gone.

    My solution included randomly re-positioning all the nodes including the chests when the nodes re-spawn, and repopulating the zone only after a specified period of time once 75 percent of the nodes were depleted..

    The problem with instancing is that one player could easily flood the game economy since there it no competition for node gathering.

    In the real world competition sucks and "milk drinkers" always lose!

    I think its funny when players are running for the same thing on console, just wait for them to jump (console players will get this) then take it, job done.

    Yeah, node yoinkers are annoying. But so what, you just move on to the next. Sometimes the next is right over there, sometimes (craglorn) it takes a lot of running...

    I'd rather have the occasional annoyance of this then the extra lag from instancing all the nodes to every single player...

    Gathering nodes would be great instead one time gathering some are underground or inside rocks and people always leave the worms in flowers making you waste time also ps4 users nave no add-on... for this they should learn from FF14
