POSTED by DARKLADY on EQLandmark Forums
Before you start your mining adventures there are a few thing you need to know:
1.You don't have to equip your tools to use them, keep them in your inventory and just drag them on your hotbar.
2.You can't mine next to the starting point. Your tools are not broken, there is a small area around the portal where you can't mine anything. Head out a bit and you will be able to mine everything.
3.Make sure you are in the correct tier area. Look around the portal, the minerals you see there are the ones you are going to find on your current map. If you don't see a lot of bright orange then you are in the wrong zone. Go to the middle of the portal and click on the stone above your head and select a Tier 1 zone.
Tier 1 mining: you can mine everything with the Founders Pick
Copper Ore: Bright Orange, always found on the surface. If you are in a tier 1 zone you will see a lot of it wherever you look.
Tin Ore: Metallic Silver, mostly found under Copper deposits, rarely found on the surface. Fully mine the Copper deposits to uncover the Tin deposits.
Agate: Yellow-ish in color, found on the surface or under Tin deposits that spawned on the surface. Not very rare, but not the most common thing to come across. Mostly found in desert areas.
Tourmaline: Green with yellow, very rare to find, can be found on the surface or under both copper and tin deposits. If there are a lot of people hunting for it, it might take some time to find. Keep an eye out of it though since you need it to craft your next pick.
Tier 2 mining: requires a Bronze Pick
Iron Ore: Metallic Dark, mostly found in tier 2 zones, always on the surface.
Aquamarine: Light blue-green, found on the surface and also under Iron Ore deposits. Easier to find then the tier 1 gems.
Topaz: Yellow mixed with orange, found both on the surface or under Iron Ore deposits.
To craft your bronze pick you need:
15 Plain Wood Planks (1500 Plain Wood) + 3000 Plain Wood Planks (not processed)
45 Tourmaline (1 deposit should give you that)
15 Elemental Tin (provided by Tin deposits)
5 Burled Wood Plank (500 Burled Wood Log)
13 Tin Ingots (1300 Tin Ore)
15 Elemental Copper (provided by Copper deposits)
20 Copper Ingots (2000 Copper Ore)
These materials would provide enough for you to craft the following:
Copper Pick (needed for crafting the Bronze Pick)
Copper Reinforced Saw Table (you need it to make the Wood Planks. To use this you need to place your claim and drop the item inside it. To find a valid claim spot open the minimap and zoom out. Look for a spot that is not within a box - you'll know what I mean when you see the minimap. Might be hard to find a valid spot, I found mine on the far right corner of a map.)
Bronze Pick
Tier 3 mining: requires an Iron Pick
Silver Ore: Bright Silver, mostly found under Iron deposits. Fully mine the Iron deposit to uncover the Silver. Found on tier 2 maps.
To craft your Iron Pick you need:
3 Burled Wood Planks (300 Burled Wood Logs)
45 Aquamarines
15 Elemental Iron (provided by Iron deposits)
30 Plain Wood Planks (3000 Plain Wood Logs)
15 Iron Ingots (1500 Iron Ore)
Tier 4 mining: requires a Silversteel Pick
Tungsten: Dark Green, found on the surface on tier 2 maps. There is loads of it, you can't miss it, especially in the desert areas.
Marble: Plain White, found on the surface on tier 2 maps.
To craft your Silversteel Pick you need:
20 Plain Wood Planks (2000 Plain Wood Logs)
60 Topaz
10 Silver Ingots (1000 Silver Ore)
20 Elemental Silver (provided by Silver deposits although the drop rate seems really low)
7 Burled Wood Plank (700 Burled Wood Logs)
This seems to be the last pick that can be crafted at the moment. The servers went down as I was starting to try mine with my new pick so if I find anything else I will add it.
If you want to craft all your planks in one go and not have to run back and forth to your claim spot, you need a total of 6.800 Plain Wood Logs and 1.500 Burled Wood Logs to make all the planks you need and never have to go back (for now). The rest of the materials and the actual picks can be crafted at the crafting station at the starting portal.

We gonna go Dwarvish as a main colony kingdom?
Lean on the Viking lore?
Lo there do I see my father...
Lo there do I see my mother, my Sisters and my brothers...
Lo there do I see the line of my people, back to the beginning.
Lo, they do call me, they bid me take my place among them,... in the halls of Valhalla, where the brave may live forever.
Viking and Steel with tons of massive stone architecture (ie Tolkein view of dwarf kingdom capitals)
I can work that into the Roman production plants and Asian pottery kiln mountains.

Wolf was one of our UO leaders and Star Wars Galaxy who designed much of the graphics for the website and now works a TON with animation with a company in the USA.....
Thanks Wolf...our Canadian brother in arms (gaming) -
Afternoon Rumblebore......keep eye here aye....we will definitely have creative teams working on projects that will fit together well for sales on the sony site....we figure there are many of us who have been gaming and designing since this industry started....we might as well put our ideas/visions to potential benefit.............then game on top of that fun....whoot

We are already working with a large alliance of players in sector 400 and on our planet we are building up the Klingon Empire. The game is an internet browser game over time for space building, research and combat with ships....free and is much more interactive than that freeking candy crush on facebook ehhehe. If your interested we are there.
Attached is a photo of where you would end up after creating base and moving it to Klingon Planet.
If your interested in a city civilization building over time free internet browser game we are in Forge of Empires here (Smedlock, Zarbalt, Esidor and myself)

Way back when the AUTHENTICATORS became available I picked up a bunch of them and sent many out to members. My Authenticator today has died...locked up on a number which is what happens at the end of life for the battery I am told. SO I am sending this note out as a warning to all others....you may need to get a new Authenticator soon. (WOW version is out of stock, Starcraft one which works for WoW and battlenet for USA still in stock)
Sadly I now have to call them since all the options to deal with adding or removing an authenticator...require me to login with authenticator....and I would rather not have the account without one...so I will call them and spend the millions of hours online with them to help get new one up and running.
-
A bit of a translation....I was given a severance package and lost my job with Staples (DM finally won his personality clash n battle with me) when they reorganized all stores and did not have to use any performance rankings or reports. I am looking to own a franchise in Ithaca as well as continuing on the side to try to get THE Pizza programs going to bring commissions to THE and its members to benefit from. (If anyone knows someone in an advertising agency or company send contact to me) I am a pretty open book and if you have any leads out there drop me a line.
On the gaming front....we all seem to be enjoying the summer so far which is great and gaming is low key as the industry itself seems to be restructuring itself with some games going free (with store purchasing as revenue gains) and others not doing as well as expected. Still...UO, WOW, GW2 and KotOR still have players enjoying their game time.
It is interesting how in WoW guild the DRUID Grip on Mains is over now with Paladins leading.....Druids n Hunters bumped down by 3 rising classes of Mains.....Pally, Mage and Warriors rising to the top 3.
Taurens still hold the top population in Mains and Overall but Blood Elves really have come up as an overall group...interesting stuff.

Many of the current players use Facebook and they have set up the groups there and still do use ICQ even thought TeamSpeak is available to them to use freely.
I will forward your info to the team.

Good Evening....

In this clip is a glimpse of one of our THE member's wife.....she is the blonde that screams on the bridge at the end of the scene in the superbowl 2nd video. (she shows in blue as thumbnail to superbowl trailer too)

she was also on the bridge in the first one with blonde ponytail.

While the games come and go....the guild (website) or guilds we all built together and the bonds of friendships we made will keep going and as intended this place (website) will always be a hub for all past members of all the games....to gather chat...checkup on....and even launch into the new games together.
It is incredible and a ton of fun at launches....even the TS chatter when servers crash....god help me but I really love hanging/chatting/adventuring and whatever with all members during launches and gametime.
The Guilds will exist forever as long as we keep thier goofy fun, memories fresh and in our hearts n minds....regardless of where the real world stears us. I for one now at this moment surely can relate as I am no longer with Staples and am looking to start my own business (franchise) here in Ithaca hopefuly in a few months. Regardless....I am poppin in and out of WOW, Facebook, GW2, Forge of Empires (free web game) and yup...as martok has....even UO!!!!
Gonna look up some old friends and dev team members at EA for UO and see if there are any needs for some content writing....I have a wicked nice VIKING / WENDLE Invasion project they may indeed enjoy. (Given Viking stuff is hot nowdays ie history channel show)
Stay in touch EVERYONE....and never forget your family....errr....your gamer family is always here. The Honor Empire and all its versions of guilds.
PS.....Martok....lets go Fishin (huntin pirates in UO) Have no idea about this sea battle system...but then we always wanted it....might as well go sink a few ships ehhehe.

Skill and coordination of team members aye.....though I hold fast to the new rule.....BALANDAR is not allowed to control power or anything to do with routing of power....he can be fireman, gunner or starship fighterpilot for any space campaigns.
heheh
It is too bad we dont have a direct link to the Bioware team.....grab thier ear for an evening.
16yrs experience in these game engines on the user side (seeing what fails and succeeds as well as what is desired) is more than some of the devs careers themselves.....number one failure of all game engine teams is failure to look and listen OUTSIDE thier programming cells or circles of peeps.
A programmer never can be a customer service rep or even be effective at speaking to customers....they chose programming for a reason...complete control.

What I took away from the video is something we worked on very hard in UO......STOCKPILES and the value of Resource gathering and supply. When we were in Galaxies the hope was to utilize the tradespeople and builders to supply the FLEETS of the Empire (Hutt and Rebels) to build and support the FLEETS which in turn could be turned loose on trade routes or capture planet(s) etc....
I agree and maintain the belief that putting a value and utilization of the trades to support the combat roles is the way games can then stack upon the world PVP and enhance the capture point epic battles etc. (DAOC keep sieges etc)
Star wars could adapt that to Cities....Planets.....Trade routes....Galactic Resource centers.....etc.
What I see and hope for (space wise PVP) is Planetary assaults like at the beginning of Star Wars 3 I believe where Anakkin and Obiwan were in small ships flying in and out of the massive battling fleets.
The fleets being a base that is UPGRADED or ADDED to by Faction players that dedicate thier "creations" and/or guild ship support within a massive Planetary assault that is triggered or scheduled as open PVP (ie Keep battle in DAoC) to determine for the week or month which Faction will control that UNIQUE PLANET and its Resources...thus gaining the Faction access to those Flashpoints, Quest lines and/or World Bosses etc...and PLUNDER GAINS.
Various Capital ships that could be ASSAULTED or DEFENDED ...depending on which you rather do ....or spend time in your fighter or within your guild ships participating in larger scale combat against NPC enemy Capital ships....
Once NPC Capital ships are destroyed....NPC Capital ships (boardable) are captured....and guild participating ships are defeated.....a side wins.
Or a timeframe ends with 2 being completed by a side....a side wins.
Fail to get 2 of the 3 or 3 of the 3 and ..........the planet remains uncontrolled and inaccessible to either.
TRADE ROUTES would control the commerce options of the game engine and give a faction a discount or penalty depending on which is in control of the route.
ROUTE battles would be FLEET battles again with the 3 parts again.....the various routes would relate to some area of commerce and resources. etc.
-
Might I add on that when you are on Balmorra for the first time and leveling up....right as you are finishing with planet there will be a quest giver for the BONUS SERIES at the Spaceport.....DO THAT SERIES THEN....dont wait till your 50.
-
I just hope the Republic's "children's crying and bawling" are not at the core of the moves.....

Nice...
