Halatali Mining Points

[Oibaf]

Please fix the location of Halatali Mining Points.
The structure of that map zone is already problematic, but if we have to go inside the caves and avoid stupid assassins or whatever, mining just become slow and boring.
Sometimes you don't know if the next spot is inside or outside, and if you guess wrong you're forced to do ridicolous trips.
Also, please, make gathering faster, just like you did with the crafting.

Thanks Square, you're doing a great job (absolutely not sarcarstic).

I've been doing mining leves at Halatali for weeks and have no issues at all, neither are inside caves at all (I must of done about 80 or so mining leves) and you can easily avoid all the mobs by going the longer route (theres several routes you can take)

I'm not talking about leves, Fear, my fault, I was not clear.
I'm talking about normal mining spots, not the ones in leve that are already perfect.
I'm talking about the spots that you search with the miner's ability "Lay of The Land".

Avoiding mobs isn't a problem since I can use the ultimate "Stealth" but, going inside and outside the caves with stealth becomes long and boring.

Judging by the fact that there are stacks upon stacks of Electrum Ore in Ward, and Halatali is literally the only place to get it consistently (Nophica sucks), I doubt that many people would have much of a problem.

This place has been the bane of my virtual existence for quite some time now.

Both Logging and Mining in this place blow. Mining definitely has it worse. It's just further compounded by the forced single yield =(

While nodes usually do end up very distant from each other, I expected this zone to be a bit worse. I'm up to around 3000/4000 mines in about 5 days. It could be worse.

Nodes spread far apart, Nodes inside and outside of caves and you constantly wonder if you are going to have to turn around and ride back around a mountain because the node is not on the outside/inside, Nodes beside assassins or ants causing you to slow down with stealth.

I'm not saying these are bad things for the game, but all of them converge into the hell that is halitali and none of them are present at iron lake. What the French, Toast?

It should be noted that Nanawa Mines is now an alternative to Halatali. They added Grade 5 nodes in this zone as of 1.22 and oftentimes, nodes are within 50 yalms of each other. On two occassions I saw two pop side by side.

This is cool. I have about 800 to go for the 4000. You get those kidney ores there right? Are they tradeable?
