So grade 5 Thanalan is just the worst place to mine, it's infuriating. I can deal with every other mining spot but that one can drive one to the brink of madness. Placement of mining points there is possibly one of the dumbest things I've seen in the game. Alot of the times you will get a message that the point is 100 yalms away but it turns out it's inside the mountain, so instead of traveling 100 yalms you have to circle the mountain and travel about 400 yalms. When you're done with that you have to get out and travel to another mountain. You have to travel 3 times as far as in any other g5 place I've mined. It's not fun!
