Yeah even on the silly name server CTS chose on serenity, they're going really drat fast.

I barely managed to get a claim that's on grass.

ninjaedit: my in game name is Nlivin, feel free to say high.

Erm, how do you delete trees from your claim?

I cut it down and it respawns in a minute. :downs:

I just made an "inferior silversteel pick" does it actually matter in terms of digging stuff up? It seems to be working on tungsten just fine, and marble.

I think 'inferior' tools are just slower and do less damage. You can mouse over them in your inventory to check the stats. Their quality doesn't affect what resources you can use them on AFAIK.

But the RNG involved with crafting items isn't very fun IMO, especially when the tools start to cost a boatload of resources to craft.

I am unable to mine what I assume is gold at the end of tungsten veins. Is that supposed to happen?

Same for me and I have a regular silversteel pick.

Ok thanks :)

Could someone who is further than me list the colors of ores and what's usually at the end of them? That would be super helpful. Thanks.

EDIT: Also I could use some tips as to the progression. I assume now that I have a silversteel pick that a 'Marble Forge' is next?

Am I right in thinking that once you upgrade a forge you don't need the older one? They look identical and the marble one seems to do all the old stuff as well I think.

I have yet to find a single piece of sapphire -_-

Went digging through the EQNL forums and found a post that said that the abundance (or complete lack) of sapphire could be varied on different islands. It would certainly make sense since I've found absolutely zero on Pingo so far.

But I'm way too tired to go try it out so it'll have to wait. But it would be nice to get the drat cobalt pick already.

Spent two hours going around the map, found one vein finally, got 26 sapphires -_-

Is there a way to find a island with a low amount of people? I just bought the game and every server/island seems full. Also the game always spawns me in the middle of nowhere a long way away from the spire.

They're adding new servers and 'islands' as fast as they can get the servers up. Not sure about a schedule though.
That teleport bug is something they're working on (or I thought they fixed that already but I guess not)
