Gathering Nodes too far Appart.

Really, regular nodes are too far appart, mount distance in fact, can they be moved a bit more close together please? this doesn`t have any porpuse for actual game or economy, is just bothering several gatherers.

Players - "Make the zones larger SE!"
{SE makes huge zones}
Players "OMG the zones are too big, this is so annoying!"

Make up your minds, please. A larger world allows for a larger spread of nodes. It fits better, it works better.
Can you gather 6 nodes in a 15y square? Nope. Working as intended. It was only that way for 1 - 50 zones because the zones themselves were so damnably small there was no where else to put them.

Not to mention there are 6 nodes instead of 4... really rather happy with the increase there. All running between them does is gives me more time to recharge GP.

Gathering isn't what it used to be, you're gonna have to get used to the new way of things.

You know how to read? Im talking about node distance, not map size. Nodes could easily be closer together on a larger map. It serves no reason to just have them spreaded appart just cause the map is big if it only hurts player experience. Is just an unnecesary time sink.

You make it sound like a hivemind. Different groups can desire different things, it's not being unable to make up our mind. They could use same node density as 2.0 and just have more nodes overall.

Really, this is a non-issue once you can fly in a given area. You can move between nodes faster and easier than you could in the old zones. I gathered a ton of rainbow cotton in mere minutes by flying between nodes, since you not only avoid obstacles but you also travel faster in flight than you do on land.

This. I can gather a stack of materials in half the time I used to be able to. Flying is key.

No offense,but if you really love gathering,i'm sure you can live with it.

It's way better now. 2.x gathering was literally fighting sleep. Now all it needs is to randomize the location of gathering nodes.

I agree , its way better now in 3.0 :)

edit : I like the distance between the nodes , nothing more annoying to run around in small circles like an idiot , well now its large circles but it feels not so dull anymore :p

What do you mean it isn't what it use to be, nothing different that I've seen. Been Mining, already to level 55 without even trying very hard.

I think this also this might have been a great way to battle bots: A bit more randomized, have to run through fields of hard-hitting mobs, and it takes more time.
And as others has mentioned: flying is the key, as soon as you have that unlocked for the area, it is really easy =)

Flying will fix it. If you've played WoW you'll know, flying drastically increases your yield. Especially in a game that does it the correct way and makes it so only you can get resource nodes.

Between flying and no competition for nodes, you should be getting a ton of mats.

Running around with 200 yalms between the nodes (old good 1.x time)
Distance between the nodes in the new zones are still short, compared to 1.x

Also take into consideration the xp aspect. Everything seems to be a little less then 2.0. That said, this does benefit the cheaters more then regular players.Teleporters will not be affected by spread or the need to fly.

Really was getting 3000-4000 xp a pop with the manual.

Stop complaining about everything.

For that you've the fly mounts.
