blessed pickaxe impossible to get?

Haven't quite gathered enough to get the miner or botany tools, but from what I've heard, they only glow when actively being used, not just when equipped.

[DrWho2010]

this is correct - they only glow when being used. even the sit macro doesn't make them glow cause you're still not using it to gather.

Probably just better to get the crafted set, lol

Botany is certainly annoying, I am one short 229/230 if I remember correctly, and the only things left to gather are the 3 or 4 new 3*** you need 860 gather to touch. It's looking very chicken-and-egg. I'll hope that is a mistake they will fix as well. seems odd you'd just need one rather than all of them.

Were you able to finish this without the 3-star stuff? I am stuck here as well. Wondering if something that's checked didn't register for some reason.

Finished both miner and botanist achievement the last days and I did not do the 3 star 60 nodes, so you wont need them for it. (At least I dont have those folklore 3 stars not sure if there are other ones) I am not that good with stats so those tools are nice for me.

[Mortaneus]

I figured the botanist could finish it without the 60 3-stars since I finished it with the miner. What I can't figure out is why everything in my botany log is checked yet I'm stuck at 229/230.

It glows when you are using it only ;; like, mine glow when I am fishing/mining/chopping something up lol

No, in all cases -btn, min and fish-, you need the 3*** stats.

This is a typical pattern though (craft as well), to make/gather the highest gear, you need the highest gear. Makes you wonder what the point is.

for example - by the time I have done enough fishing to get this tool, there'll be little point in continuing to fish.

hmm, now I'm wondering what I am missing, stuck on 229 for BTN, only things left to collect are the 3*** ones. Have collected in the diadem, but that doesn't seem to count towards the stats. I never did any favours though, they don't seem to be listed anywhere either, so I am assuming they don't count either.

[Alleo]

Well all I can say is that I am far away from having a very good gear on my gatherers (the highest items are still 0% for me) so it cant be that you need them. And if you are at 229/230 and still have all 3 stars open it must be something else or you would have a lower number there. (Not sure how many 3 stars the BTN has but its definitely more than one) Folklore are counting in this and all the stuff you get from those other special nodes that will spawn after you gathered some other nodes. (Sorry not 100% sure what they are called in English)

I think that I never did all the favors so they should not count in this. So if you have done everything else, than this is mostly a bug.
