Cant farm ores EVER!

Bots…newly added orichalcum areas got bots and full time 24/7 pricks who smack them all day. im lucky if i get a shot at 150 orichalcum a day. Just make all ore farmable by everyone!!! the economy will be fine and the guys and bots doing it can either quit or go play the game…other items can be sold and still have a way for people to make gold. the vast majority of people making gold are the bots and selling their gold on g2g or greedy determined people. in no way shape or form does that help people who play the game every day and cant gather ore… think about it and help us out. I dont want to buy ore from tp bc I cant farm it. I enjoy farming and all aspects of the game but somethinga gotta give. Also im a returning player who left for 9 months and enjoy alot of the changes and added content. please fix this.

Agree it’s cancer… wish nodes were instanced for all players with longer cooldown.

It’s very frustrating to go from farming spot to farming spot and players/bots are swarming at all of them.

I end up buying from those 10000 resource listings that I know are bot farmers… but what choice I have?

Thanks for the feedback @protouchpainting31 I will pass along your info the team!

This has been complained about on the forums since release. Still nothing has been done.

When I played with my friends and we talked on Discord, they would scream “***** you” when a bot or a camping player already mined everything or got it right before them. They all quit the game and uninstalled. Its toxic and BORING.

The “fix” was to go mine Rocks for 4 hours and sell for small amount of coin so you can buy 1 - 5 Orichalcum Ores, that would have taken you 10 minutes for you to gather yourself.

It is what it is.

So been struggling as well with the well any ore but rock and wyrmwood trees.

There is a slower but workable solution I found. The monsters in brimstone many are made of various ores and you can farm them…mostly lodestone from what I found. And the trees I found the wolves in edensgrove are made of them so you can harvest wyrmwood from the dryiad wolves.

Do hope they make actual server side ones with longer timers if required cause currently the resource gathering are worse than I experienced in any mmorpg with how it is set up.

It was because New World was open World PvP in alpha test. You could just kill the players that was trying to steal/camp resources. Now its PvE and all you can do is to stand there and watch.

In this video at 2:47 can see that developers mention “FREQUENT BOT BANS” , which is not true. I’ve moved from a server ruled by bots (Dry Tree) after me & other players reported & the same bots for weeks. I even opened tickets with video proofs and nothing happened to them. Now i am on Asgard, a new server that been added few months ago, things wasn’t so bad at all, when we was need resources could get them easily without stress & chasing bots to report. Now, yesterday we got another server (Tupia) merged into us & with this merge the devs was bring the bots as well, same automated characters having patterns going to the nodes, spamming gathering key 3-4 times and move on to other nodes. Been reported them yesterday, now i’m curious how long is taking to devs to ban them…

I think a good compromise would be to make nodes personal but gatherable once per day like elite chests, and adjust the amount you get as necessary to compensate.

This is a simple solution. BAN VIRUTAL MACHINES!
