[dev1282] Gathering points are now marked on the minimap.

It's speeding up the process of gathering materials. The correlation is clearly there. More speed = efficiency. If people are now gathering materials at a faster rate, you are introducing more materials in to the market. Is there anything that doesn't go over your head?

Fun fact: The market has already been saturated with materials. This just makes it "easier" for people, like myself, who want to farm their own materials to craft their own stuff.

I think the point of this addition went right over your head there, Lucy.

"Oh hey, now I can use the in game map rather than a third party one to see marked locations of nodes! Way to break the game SE!"

I remember when I made this suggestion right after the lodestone forums went up

the ammount of hate i got over it was hilarious

Not surprised. It's the FFXIV forums. There are an abundant supply of players like Lucy here who don't understand that the marked nodes are neither necessarily active nor available for harvest. They simply serve as little markers to get an idea of which node your ability pointed you to once you get closer.

Being me is much better than being a butt plumber who states something and doesn't even know what it is he said.

lol... Stop describing yourself.

Instead of ad hominems and provocative posts, why not try to explain what I don't know about what I'm saying? Right, it requires you to first understand what I'm saying. Pop some scrolls Lucy, you're gonna need a lot more xp before you gain that ability.

I'm kind of sad about this..I liked gathering, and I liked that few other people did it because most thought it was too much of a hassle to remember mining spots, search for new ones or even just use a map from the internet.

With this, more people will do it and gathering won't be something special anymore where I can be alone and enjoy the scenery without other players..
And they will empty my secret mining spots, too

I'm aware the above is an absolutely childish reaction, but that's how I honestly feel about this change.

Like I said before, I don't mind the idea; I do mind though the timing of the implementation. It's only going to introduce more resources in to the market.

They should first figure out how to remove the excess before they introduce this. I've already said this three times. You guys in your need to argue, only pick out the parts where I seem most upset.

I'll say it once more; I don't mind the idea.

I think I will add my voice to this and say "Thank you" as well.

No more wasting 5 minutes looking for a node that is actually behind you... yes, it happened to me. >.<;
