Basic Ore Node Pack
- They ARE in the Norn home instance. It’s on the opposite platform of the Great Lodge. (I agree that it’s an awful placement location though.)
- Would support this.
- Ehhh, I dunno. I’d rather have an upgrade later where we get all the metal nodes. Along with the wood nodes. And maybe herb/root vegetable patches.
If they were rich ore nodes then it means you bought a daily achievement point, every day till the game ends, with gems. Don’t think they’ll go for that.

We’re already almost there though. 9 mines from the nodes, plus 6 from the Quartz and Candy Corn node = 15. If we just had two more nodes, whether available through the Living Story or through gem purchases, we’d be at the point where players can complete Daily Gatherer without ever leaving the Home Instance.
I’m fully convinced that there will be a Basic Arborist Nodes and a Basic Gardener Nodes item released at some point.
But you unlocked those other nodes.

Ah, I see the angle you’re getting from. Well, I still don’t think ANet will see it as a problem. To get the AP, you’d still need to login and mine the nodes, so it’s not exactly “free” AP, and it gets you to login every day, which is what ANet wants the dailies to encourage.
As others have pointed out, getting 20 node harvests isn’t particularly difficult, so whether a player logs in and mines 20 nodes in their Home Instance or Queensdale or WvW doesn’t matter to ANet.
I just can’t see myself buying this ore pack anyways. I could get these resources farming for less than 5 mins. The amount you get in your personal isn’t enough to really make a dent in anything, whether it be crafting or selling.
I love the ideas of Ore in the home instance, but for the price there is literally no reason to buy this.
I did find it in the Norn home instance….never had a reason to venture to that side..lol
