Sea of Clouds Favor Gathering

This zone is junk for collecting favors. Every other zone there is a concealed node relatively nearby, not so here. My question is WHY??

This zone in my collecting history is notorious for crappy spawn rates of the nodes to get favor items. When you average 2 to 3 items for every favor collection, that sucks. It sucks even more then other zones, such as the Hinterlands the average is 4-6 items per run.

Can the Sea of Clouds be retooled for this function. Currently it is ridiculous and overly frustrating!!!

I assume you're referring to BTN favors there, since MIN concealed nodes are rather more conveniently located. Except one which is at the top of a steep slope that you can only reach from one side... Anyway.

When I was learning the locations of nodes, I found it helpful to place Waymarks on the trees that held them. This meant I could quickly mount up and fly in the right direction as soon as the node was depleted, and then divert to the actual next node if when it didn't proc. After some practice I learned the locations better and it's not as huge a deal, especially if you can mount up and fly quickly.

Ultimately, it all comes down to your GPS (gathers per second) - gotta git gud... shrub :p
