Nah bro. Apparently you haven't been to Dun Morogh, Elwynn, Westfall, Darkshore or Loch Modan recently for mining. One day nodes were plentiful (with 5k server pop), the next day there were no nodes whatsoever unless the server had just restarted.

However, since they stated they fixed the system, I can find 35 nodes in 1k needles in one hour, which seems like way more than there ought to be. I didn't even check everywhere I could have.

Something is wrong with with their spawning algorithm, or it isn't applying to certain regions.

Hi guys, to farm copper you have kobold, with 6 % rate loot .
I found some nodes .... only when i fly , when you run to them they disepear. ( just betwen Elwynn and likeshire) .
So i don't think that just a " bliztlike rate" I think that is an other probleme.
Hope that will be fixed quickly.
Have a good day

I can see how you would think this but it is just not the case. I leveled a rogue from 1-23 over a week long period and got my mining to 85 (This was about two weeks ago. Character name Tannon). I mined close to 200 copper and 20 tin. I then made a hunter (Over the last week and a half. Character name Rumbleshots) because I got tired of dying and have since leveled that hunter to 26 in the same zones. The hunter has a mining level of 15. I have found only a couple of nodes in all of my play time.

The zones that everyone are talking about here are certainly broken (Elwynn, Dun Modr, Wetlands, Westfall, Redridge, Loch Modan, Duskwood). I would love to hear someone who is successfully mining any reasonable amount of ore in those places, but I'm sure it just isn't happening. It is impossible to level mining in these zones. I can understand why you would attribute this to over-population but I played a character in these same zones just a couple weeks ago and was rollin' in the ore. I recently rolled an undead after getting tired of not having ore. I have found several veins in no time. Tirisfal is clearly fine.

Can't say about PVP server, but on PVE there are still no herbs and nodes. I spent 4 hours yesterday, while i had been questing in Wetlands and found only one Steelbloom and Bruisweed in places which are not so often visited by players. ATM i'm walking around Wetlands and no herbs at all. So it's obvious, that something goes wrong. Restarting server is just temporary solution.

P.S.
Two days ago i found "red" message from administrator, that problems with respawning are solved. Can't find this topic now, but it was dated the 7th of November 2015.

Four hours of questing in STV and I only found one Liferoot node while a friend of mine spent two hours in Hinterlands and found a single Sungrass. Node spawning is NOT fixed.

When you fly there are herbs EVERYWHERE, but they are not visible once you are landed. There is some kind of layering going on in the game world. It is most obvious in the border between The Barrens and Ashenvale. You can see a Mageroyal when in The Barrens as you come south, you can even put your mouse cursor over it from about 30 feet away. You walk up to it and you can click it, then i says "object not available" then it vanishes because you just transitioned into The Barrens.

What does this have to do with STV? Well when flying down to Booty Bay from Stormwind I counted 15 herb spawns, then another 11 when I flew back to SW to train when I hit level 42, but while I was actually on the ground I found only the one Liferoot node.

There is a very obvious solution to this, and it's for them to roll back whatever non-essential change they made that caused this problem to occur in the first place. The server was running fine before this happened. Whatever it was they did that caused this side effect is not so important that they can't roll it back so we can all be able to access resource nodes. I mean, really. This has been going on for weeks now. It's not acceptable any more when it could obviously be reverted.
