Something needs to be done about stacked surveys

The nodes in the survey locations should really give roughly the amount of resources it would give you for all your stacked surveys for that specific survey, instead of us having to run a huge circle for them to respawn. So if you have 20 Shadowfen: blacksmith surveys the nodes you harvest there the first time would be the same amount as you running to it 20 different times to clear the surveys out.
Does this even sound like something ZOS could make possible?

stefj68✭✭✭✭✭multiplying by 20 what you harvest and consuming the 20 surveys will prolly cause the server to crash... we are running on hamster this weekends

stefj68✭✭✭✭✭i think they respawn right away, but issue is your client won't know till u get out of the area and comeback... they are not sending respawn information to the client... i think default timer around 10min if u stay in the same place for them to reappear

All I gathered through the years is that it's cell based, when you leave the one you're in you safe to return but it isn't some fixed distance from node, there is one in elsweyr that spawns when you're making like 5m away in some particular direction leaving said cell. It's pretty bad anyway so they should work out some solution for that whatever that may be without hurting their server performance.1 -

Been proposing a green tree passive for that for a while now.
Green tree has way less points to invest in than other trees anyway.ShutYerTrap (selectively mute NPC dialogues (stuga, companions); displayleads (antiquity leads location); UndauntedPledgeQueuer (small daily undaunted dungeon queuer window)0 -
remosito✭✭✭✭✭Just thinking about the lag that would likely cause...
why would it cause more lag?
you'd need only to send one more number as an argument to the server. how many surveys are on the character.
then server would send back just a higher number.
no need really for the server to roll 20x the dices. just roll them once. multiply by number of surveys client sent.Edited by remosito on April 5, 2021 7:51AMShutYerTrap (selectively mute NPC dialogues (stuga, companions); displayleads (antiquity leads location); UndauntedPledgeQueuer (small daily undaunted dungeon queuer window)0 -

✭✭✭✭✭I seriously wish surveys would go back to pre OneTamriel days. You get them at the zone you drop off at.

right now if u ask the server to multiply by 20, if u have 20 it might cause them to crash!

but is two zone loadings really faster than running away for a bit and back?ShutYerTrap (selectively mute NPC dialogues (stuga, companions); displayleads (antiquity leads location); UndauntedPledgeQueuer (small daily undaunted dungeon queuer window)4
