Ok sorry, it didnt tab it ended previous post.

Im just wondering if thiswas a nerf or have i just had like 3 really bad shifts in row? I play on Natirus server and play on Naboo. I used to have a semi-easy time finding a 70%-80%ish spot.Last three shifts i have searched and searched and best i can find is 50%ish.

I was just wondering if anyone else having this problem or just my good luck?

70-80%? Good Lord... you had it good before, my friend. Only once have I ever seen ore reach 70%. I'm usually pretty happy to find 60%.

Tell me about it, I haven't seen a 70% in AGES. The best I have found over months (and looking every week since release) is 68% and I couldn't place my heavies due to hills. Typically it's around 60% although one week, best I could find was 58%.

Hmm, sorry about the extra post. No idea what happened there.

I used to have that problem until I got out of the Carbonate Ore mindset.

All I need is a small pile of Carbonate ore and then I can make everything else with Silastic ore. I often find Silastic ore at over 70%.

I have noticed thatit isnteasy to find Carbonate over 60%

Aye, it's just so much easier to keep 1 type of ore on hand. Since nothing HAS to have Sil Ore, why bother with it. I do however survey for Sil ore the same time i am looking for Carb ore and still never found anything worth a crap.

I had a 69% spot not too long ago, but it lasted a grand total of 5 hours...

Maybe I am lazy, or maybe I am unlucky, but I never find ore over 55% on my home planet. Allot of the time I settle for 45-47%, even the sil ore.

My problem is I have absolutely no combat or scout skills, I am a 100% craftsman and merchant. When I do harvestor runs, I go out, with my distractor bot and pet following, and dodge red dots. I don't go too far from the main city, but far enough that it takes me a 10 minute run to get to my furthest harvestor.

Maybe I don't go out far enough, but I never find any ore spots that are worth much, and I often have to fight even for a 50% spot that is already hogged up with no room left for me.

Isn't it funny that the trade that requires the most ore has the worst concentrations?

Also, correct me if I am wrong, but isn't an ore some sort of more common unrefined metal? As in RL, isn't some sort of minable ore more plentifull than say.. a copper vein? Any scientific types or rock collectors feel free to correct me, I am curious.

My granddad used to tell tales about the days when you could find 70-80%Carb ore veins on Naboo that stretched for miles. He said harvesters were lined up for as far as the eye could see for months. I of course, never believed him. I just enjoyed his story telling. He was so good at....

It comes and goes. Sometimes I'll have a 90% right under my town and other times I have to search long and hard just to get a 50% spot. Ore isn't nerfed.

Oh yes! There was a very high concentration of Carb ore right in the center of Theed once. It may have been as high as 80%. Where you were finally able to lay even a personal harvester down though, it was down to 55%. What a cruel joke on us that one was.

I meant my player built town.
