Re: Eureka! There's Frostwood in them thar hills

While I applaud your persistence.

And I would like to have some of your ideas at least talked about. Like add in colored wood to some monsters as loot.

the easiest solution would be to revert the ores/wood to the way it was - ie static.

couple this with removing all colored woods/colored ores from the library/museum collections (someone want to donate 800 000 wooden boards to the museum, hey go for it)

The uptick in scripting for these resources was when you could get the items to sell from the collections. Up until then (yes there were scripters) the most scripted item was regular ore (iron) because it is always need for bods. And some scripted for dull/shadow to fill bods for pofs.

I have seen people complain, it was not fair, cause I could not get any resources. That line is/was just bs. Anyone would told me this line was a lazy person that bought a runebook with marked spots that many copies were made.

If the person was a true craftsman, they would have done what many others did. Explore the game on your own. Mark your found spots and do not share them.
While I am not sure that I found spots no one else knew about. I did find several frostwood spots in Fel that I never saw another soul at.

Then the next agruement is the same tree/mountain spot should run out of ore/wood eventually cause you do not find the same wood/ore in the same static places.
Well this argument is bs too. Look at many real life examples. Many tree species are only found in certain geographical areas (the same places everytime you go there) For example California Redwood trees are -gee- get this only found in the pacfic northwest and no other place on earth, barring the occassional botanical garden setting. And as far as a mountain ore spot running out. There are mines all over the earth were there has being continuous mining for several thousand years for the exact same mineral.

Again it was just players too lazy to find their own spots.

Until these resource changes I had a crafting business (wood containers/stoneware items). Since the change I had to stop taking orders for colored wood items. And making stone items, its impossible to get enough colored stone to make even a small table in a decent amount of time. The only reason that I have any colored ingots at all, is because of my stonecrafting shop. I did not need or want the ingots, just wanted the stone. But I keep my ingots and did not sell them, so I am sitting on a few to use for my one blacksmith to make bods with.

Oh and if you can show me a vendor in luna still sell large quantities of ore/wood. I will be there, cause there not a single one left on Lake Superior. Now I see a few in luna with maybe 1000 ingots (various colors) prices have nearly doubled or tripled. And the only board vendors I see only have the display boards left or just normal wood. But this is for the good of the game right? I have never been so angry at EAMythic as I am about the resource changes. I truly thought about becoming a scripter, because that is the only way to gather a decent amount of resources to fill bods. I never used any resources for the collections, cause after I went and look at them, too me both those places just scream to be scripted.

Oh well, let me get off the old soapbox, safe travels.
