Hi,

I've spend some time on this forums and on trades ones, and I cannot find any updates to the issue list about resources, in particular:

  • Is this normal that a 400+ rating titanium alu hasnt spawned for COMPONENTS FOR MORE THAN 1year ????
  • blah blah blah for the other resources.

As a 8 months old player, I cannot make decent components.
Please, CM corespondant, complain again, again and again to the dev to fix that !!

Or, will someone sell some parts of stocks ?

Conductivity on Titanium Aluminum is gated at 408, Oq is never gated. Gated resources always rate lower.

Guild mates have some (20k) spare Aile, the best spawned on Kauri, and I can make 58 with.
But, now i run out, and I've found some on vendors, but my AIA drop down arround 25 now

I hate the current spawn rate for CM resources.

Yeah, thats about what I'm getting. 54 or 55, doesn't make a big difference though.

I was looking in the armorsmith forums about gated resources since it that profession uses the most gated resources. Here's a list of the different kinds of gas and aluminium and how they all corresponde to each other in terms of the likeliness of stats being higher then the other types:

Aluminium:
Phrik
Link-Steel
Duralumin
Chromium
Agrinium
Titanium

Reactive Gas:
Tolium
Sig
Skevon
Orveth
Methane
Irolunn
Eleton


And what do you know, our CM resources rate the worse

Ok
As I can read, CM is a very low considered crafting profession ..

Now, what could we do to have a better spawn rate and better quality resources ?

Hey, correspondent, could you give us a pointer and status about what SOE team said about this ?

They are killing the fun to craft / play CM !!

The spawning system is random. The devs don't control what spawns. The game generates them automatically. I would wager millions of credits that there is nothing for our correspondent to report. In other words, it's working as intended.

Tial, I think Kauri has bad luck for CM resource spawns b/c its all random. Gorath has had a good spawn of eleton, titanium aluminum, tolium, and yavin fiberplast all within the last 2 months. Give it some time bud =]

Thanks for your answers, but i'm not really shure that the spawn system for a resources is random, not shure at all.
Keep an eye on good vs not so good resources (i've a private database who keep all resources out from 200days approx) and they arent random, low quality spawn often that another one (if I got some spare time, i can try to make stats about this ...)

Hehe, shure, I'll, but, more than 400 days isnt enough ?
This is why i started this topic. IMOO, it's not fair to wait more than one year to have a good ressource to make *COMPONENT* used in any poisons /disease.

How about new players ?

I agree with you, I need to give more time ...

Some resources have caps to some stats. Some are also programmed to be rare spawns when compaired to others. Within those confines, the spawns are random. Unfortuantely for us, many of the resources for advanced CM components fall into the category of very rare. I have no doubt that this was done intentionaly. It could be worse. At launch, the advanced RC couldn't be crafted at all, not even if you had the resources.

Ok, thanks for pointing about the "rare" resource.
This explain why ...

As they've changed things about spawn rate for loots and/or MOB, is there any way to have the same about resources

A new hope ?

Regards, and thanks for your time.

I used to complain about our resources, but over the last year I collected enough of the best stuff to hit chilastra to last me for a long time. But it took forever to get them all, so I feel your pain.


When something did spawn, I badgered my guildies into putting up to 20 heavies on it My stockpile will hopefully last me for as long as I play....lol Not to mention I still get any that spawn now as backups. Our server has had 1 good titanium spawn, and we got alot of it, course the insect meat has been lacking, but it will come around eventually.
