I have. Went to sea of clouds to mine. First 13 minutes yielded nothing. Then 2 nodes spawned back to back. None after that.
That should answer your underlaying question, I think.


You know a system really has you stressed doing it when a node can literally spawn at the last second as it happend for me..had I finished the regular node half a second later it would not have appeared.

Once we have more information, we'll make further announcements. We appreciate your patience while we work on these adjustments.

Hi Grekumah,

Thanks for the reply from the Dev Team. I remain cautiously optimistic until we see the final adjustments.

I sincerely hope for a REAL, meaningful change that alleviates the issues that so many players have mentioned to you here.

I think the sells/week will stay the same, if they just make their duration 5/6 min and spawn rate x3 or x2.5 as well.
But we'd save a lot of time.

I sincerely hope it's not just a minor tweak to buff duration and drop rates. They could have hotfixed something like that yesterday. If they're taking their time, I hope for a more substantial change that really fixes some of the bigger issues with the system instead of the band-aid we got a week ago.

I would assume it will be patched at a script reset.

same, but we will most likely be disappointed. If its only the duration/spawnrate change they better do it soon, cause even though i really want to craft, with the upcoming change in mind i have no motivation to do anything right now.

I agree, and I feel most players are also anticipating a *fix* of some sort, all the regular crafters looking for Favor mats sans 1 have stopped advertising on the PF. We need something for tomorrow's reset :)

I wouldn't keep your hopes up. As much as it would be the logical time to do "something", it's unlikely based on this:

Pending an emergency maintenance, this is like the weather forecast of any upcoming maintenance XD.

With that said, though, I hope I'm wrong.

Given that they changed the scrip values for trade-ins during a Monday/Tuesday update, I wouldn't hold my breath on a midweek patch either.
