Guild Wars 2

They have same effectiveness as Orichalcum ones but are endless, will the gathering quality rise up if a new tier of nodes comes to the game? (e.g. a new tier of ore)

The item itself actually says Able to mine all metals, so it is quite unlikely that they would be unable to mine any possible higher tier.

I see, I’d still like a dev comment on this just to ensure.

On a second thought though, I think it’s unlikely they’ll release new node tiers because then they’d have to add new armor/weapon/etc tiers into the game and they promissed ascended would be the last of them.

A new tier of nodes doesn’t necessarily need to lead to a new tier of gear. For example, one could imagine a new tier of nodes yielding resources used to craft statless gear with unique appearances to be used as skins. Or even town clothes, which would be neat.

Would that ever happen?
I’m intrigued, I might buy the Mining Pick just to ensure…

While I would really like for it to happen, there’s no way I can comment on the likelihood of it. I can hope, though, can’t I?

It NCSoft has anything to say I don’t think they will ever add a new tier of Ore. At least I don’t think they have in any of their other games.

You won’t get a dev response confirming, the response you will get is “We have no plans do add higher tiers right now, nor are we working on it. We cannot guarantee we will never add tiers, but it is currently not being worked on or considered.”

has anyone notice a reduction in orichalcum ore prices due to the unlimited mining pick?

It’d be completely illogical to add a new mining tier that the gem tools wouldn’t harvest, as a lot of people would be furious, so I’m pretty sure you shouldn’t be worrying about it.

Nope, looks steady.

This sums it up pretty well:

OMG it’s like a conspiracy or something. /sarcasm
:)
Very funny indeed.
Now, where are those tinfoil hats we asked for so many months ago? I just know you guys would sell a ton in the Gem store.

Can’t wait to get ahold of the endless sickle and axe. Never again to worry over which tool I had forgotten to buy.

They are not ingame yet, they are however in the dat-file so they are coming sooner or later.
