Thread: Resource Shifting Calender/Public Posting
Resource Shifting is getting to say the least, a rather un-realistic, ANNOYING occurance thoughout the galaxy.
I would like to see a SET time/date OR at least a big posting that such and such server is going to have/HAD a resource shift at XX:XX pm PST.
I do not play on weekends, so I set up a few harvestors on friday eve, and I check them monday, and they collected 100!!!!units over the weekend because the resource despawned on saturday morning.
If there was a PUBLIC list on these boards that I could check from home and determine if my harvestors are doing something.
But resource shifting is stupid (very constructive wording) to begin with. IF and when a resource dries up from the GALAXY, it should be respawned. But till then, surveyors should have to seek out new sources in another part of the galaxy, come to Rori, we have plenty of resources before each shift every time.
I would have to say from my past three weeks observation on bloodfin that the shift starts Weds morning and settles byabout Fri. Im not sure on the exact times, If it stays constant like this I could deffinatly live with this, I just wish it shifted a little faster so I didnt have to wait 48hours on low resources.
I would like to know if anyone has seen Liduim extrusive ore?
I completely disagree, resource shifting works perfect and is very predictable. With one simple spreadsheet and replacing your harvesters to a recent spawned resource spot every 5 days you'll neveragain have to face resources that shifted.
It takes work creating the sheet and keeping track (simply visit your spaceport of choise and use your surveying equipment on a daily base, no more then 15 minutes work each day ~I do it while eating breakfast, better spend time then eyeing the Tele IMO) but is far from dificult to achieve.
