Well as an example it's been 3 months since Byrothsis Crystaline Gemstones spawned on Chimaerra, I've been trying to find them so I can make Acklay stun batons, but to no avail.

What the hell is wrong with you guys? Make it a challenge? Be patient? Since how isa resourcepopping up every 3 months, jumping on it, mining the hell out of it and sitting on a cache till the next spawn a challenge. Patience? For months? Kids this is a GAME. Not a JOB. I understand that some resources should be rare and spawn occasionally for few days. But waiting months? I can't even buy this stuff from anyone. And as far as SWGcraft goes, its been 2 and a half months since a spawn. I worked for MWS to make weapons, not to sit around and twiddle my thumbs.

Sometimes the wait can be too extensive, Ahazi hasn't had Irolunn or Phrik spawn in some time, both of which are needed in virtually all ranged weapons, another 2 weeks and I'm going to run out of the ability to make power handlers. I'm getting frustrated that Duralloy is constantly spawning often 2 or 3 different kinds at a time but some of my most important minerals/chems never spawn. Though Ahazi did get lucky and got both a good Gallorian and Alantium at the same time, I hit both extremely hard to the point of overkill so I'll never run out of the T21 resources, however at 10 handlers a pop I'll burn through the last of my Irolunn and Phrik soon.

chily hasnt had good polonium since august, im running on my last 15k of it now. havent had good atlantium since october, im on my last 12k now. havent had much in the way of good and usefully duralloy in a while, since the CD is gated so high on that you want to watch it for your steel final assemble, our best duralloy is 976oq and 657cd, good old Erco steel, trading at over 100cpu easily and this spawned back when i was thinking about becoming a weaponsmith in early september. havent had good doonium since i wasa BE back around mid september, same thing with plumbum. we didnt get goodditanium steel until a couple weeks ago, and it was so good that it gave me an extra potential experimentation point, it was fun. you starting to see the pattern?


we had a drought of iroluun for about 3 months at one time, that was pretty bad. so i harvested 2M units when it spawned again, now i never have to worry about it.


bright side is that we just got polysteel copper with 999oq and 999cd, that stuff is fun

Yeah, but is this game really supposed to be about waiting for 6 months?

the alantium thats appeared on Lowca was soooo bad that I couldn't bring myself to waste harvies on it............to be honest, WS materials have been the worse I have ever seen in the last month or two..........

Yes it can be painful, but also it feals so good when it comes out. Like a kid in a candy store. This week osterines spawned with 982 oq on sunrunner. Gold rush time. I feal the pain on irolunn too. Down to my last three hundred and it finally spawned. I did my best to get fifty k of that.


By the way I got my first batch off of lok, and people told me it had not spawned for three months. When a month and a half earlier I mined it. So you cannot make one gun. You have fifty other weapons to work on. It is just part of the game. When good linksteel comes out is there not a rush for the new hot laser rifles.

Sorry, man, I know how you feel.


Bria had a serious drought of Ryll gemstones a couple months ago. It was selling for like 200cpu.


Just hang in there, and survey around every few days. Make sure you have a bunch of BER-13 Heavy's ready to go

Does not being able to make one weapon really ruin your WS experience?



T21's are probably the pinnacle of our normal weapons, but guess what? They dont even sell that well so just kick back, relax, and make everything else until th spawn comes around.

Doesn't ruin it but puts a serious damper on it. I'm also a MR and since everytime i fix my t21 i loose about 100 max condition, even with a 99.80 repair kit. My t21 doesn't have much life left in it. It doesn't make much sense why I, a MWS should have to go andBUY a new t21 when this one dies.

I assure you this is not a ploy by SoE to keep WS's disgruntled. We all have resource problems, but if everything was readily available to every person on the server what worth would a good smith have?
