I have a rly nice amount of white wood, honestly cant remmember where i got it, but im pretty sure its not from Exo’s since i dont run them at all
ye, fair point, but what about the crystals? (topaz diamond etc)
i saw a post few weeks ago a guy rolled a Sov with highest amount of Ruby i think or Dia cant remmember, and it was higher for a considerable amount than on regular worlds…
Perhaps you bought it, because it is Exo only right now.
Here’s the thing…rolling gems on a sov is not straightforward. Here’s why…
You can have the highest “count”, but have them spread out all over the map. Terrible for farming…
Or you can have a low count, but have one good Hotspot where they all spawn.
I know who you’re referring to, and it took MANY tries to achieve a bit of both! If kept private, then yeah, I get it, but if it’s a public area, I only see that as helping the game. They don’t regen with bombs, so it’s first come, first serve, which I think is totally fair
I understand its not so easy to get it, and i understand all ur points ur making, and they are valid.
Just to repeat i dont say Sovs are a bad thing, just saying they should be balanced a bit, even if you put it public, it just makes getting resources much easier, and they were not hard to get in the first place, any vet miner can tell you how much he/she can mine in an hour, and i saw a lot of rly good numbers on public (regular) worlds, imagine a potentially perfectly rolled world.
Also, they are not directly the reason for what i will say now, but they are one of many
For lack of better explaining, take any other MMORPG game there is, dont count in any parts except the reasoning behind it, since Boundless is a very unique type of an MMO even for a sandbox, but still ppl quit the game for these…

First and biggest reason i dont play Boundless so often is because there is lack of content and economy, let me explain a bit the content part is self explanatory since there were no updates since the gleam chests as i recall, nothing added even for building which i dont do in insane amounts. Economy is on a we could say totally “okayish” place even with low player count. The worst part of it its rly not fun runing around same 2 shops that are refilling the shop stands, also selling a larger quant of items is a pain in the ass, since there is not always demand for stuff, not even most used items. i could rant about the economy all day, but that part is not for everyone and not much ppl like the economy playstyle in games so it doesnt matter that much.

Second for an MMO, only Multiplayer activity is hunting, which is boring as hell after having around 500hrs in hunting only it gets so boring i dont even want to do it in any way solo or group. I can honestly play solo for 10-12 hrs grinding things, but you know what i feel when i see all the items i grinded in that time, just more storage needs… i dont have a reason for it, no goal… i tried fixing this when i started crafting hammers and slingbows myself from scratch, no using of shops at all, it was fun for couple hours but than i ended up with 50 slingbows and 150 hammers which are just standing around now
I had a heart attack when i saw Monument took Boundless under their wing, i was happy as hell, i hoped for some a bit quicker updates or at least a road map from them or something, but we still got nothing (myb im just tired of waiting)
Im at least happy they are there actually, fixing bugs. I have hope at least.
Conclusion, non builder regular players ( as regular i mean not the hardcore vets who are top Gs for staying with the game this long) get burned out really quickly since they see all the content fast from starting the game.
Edit: sorry for jumping from one thing to another, i was typing it in few takes, work can get annoying sometimes
again man like others told you these are opnions 500 hours of hunting is boring to you but not for other players, minning lots of gems is only some players who do it most players dont have stock pills of gems stiiting around to make into weapons and forge them . The demand of hunt items is always in need you can malke millons selling them we also cant find enough forgers for the demad of forged gear that players need and is a afforable the economy is fine its what are you willling to do to make coin.
