I need to perfectly mine 100 nodes to progress one level in mining at 24. I dread what it's like in the higher levels. You say it's a grind, and sure it is - it's a grind regardless of how much experience is needed. Also the exp doesn't increase as much as you would think. At level 14 iron ore, I was getting 160 exp. 10 level difference is only 40 exp while requiring almost 4 times as much. I can’t imagine what it will be like at level 40 when you need 300k exp.

Earlier someone mentioned them doing this to prevent mass items on the market or flooding the market with items - how on earth does this help? Seriously? It does the complete opposite. I need to mine 400 items of something for /one/ level, and there are 5 levels per tier.
