The crafting grind

[MN_14]

I've heard of people pre-depleting nodes so they are all one hit from being depleted before activating the favor. I tried this a bit, but I've NEVER found an item this way. Unless someone has successfully done this, I'm going to assume that if you access a node before activating the favor, that node won't count.

I do this and can confirm that it definitely works. I've even gotten 4 concealed nodes in a row once.
