What do you do when you reach a mat node at the same time with another player?

    Why not add a pvp aspect into farming nodes in PvE; like when two players go for the same node they automatically enter a duel...

    And then the 3rd player strolls up and snatches said node laughing historically at the two fighting!

    depends on my mood. If I am farming it means I am working on something specific and short materials so I might be tempted to run by whoever clicks first wins. Usually though; I just farm while grinding and could care less. Will just let them take it.

    I don't have this problem because I always get there first.

    I've had a couple of duel requests from "sniping" nodes, I accept then book it at lightspeed, leaving them wondering what just happened.

    All I see are people running up to the node and taking it without a care in the world, usually when I'm fighting something next to it.

    Wow, you're all so polite! Most of you seem to prefer giving the other person the chance to harvest a node first and those of you that don't make sure to not get worked up if you don't manage to click the node just a bit faster than the other person.

    You've all got such great node etiquette, and we're glad to see you're being excellent to each other!

    If it's just an unprotected node, I grab it as fast as I can; my ping is poor enough that even standing over it is no guarantee I'll get it. Same for chests. I don't get mad if someone else gets it first, that's just how it is.

    But if someone's fighting next to a node or chest, I leave it alone, and I would expect the same courtesy from others. Don't always get it, some players are just sociopaths with no idea that other people even exist.

    I know in reality its not like that but I think situation is improving a bit. With exception of jewlary node, situation has improved. I for one being at receiving end of this can feel it.

    Light attack it with my staff until they take it. I don't care about nodes that much anymore, materials are easy to get and I give and receive free crap from friends all the time, as im sure most of you all do as well.

    If it's a clean race, I'll do my best to take it. If I realise they were just fighting mobs to get to the node or similar, I let them have it.

    I also agree that people in general seem to be more courteous nowadays when harvesting. I'm thinking that's probably partly because material prices are a lot lower than they were a couple of years ago.
