Hi all I have been working on the new resource finder based on the information by Orophin (see this thread: http://disciplesofthelan....aspx?g=posts&t=1015So far I have implemented all the information about mining but I hope to add the botany information later today or maybe tomorrow. The resource finder is pretty simple. You just select the information on place and gathering type you are interested in and you will get a list of items available with the selected criteria. I hope that we will soon see some fishing in the game so this can be implemented as well. I hope that in the future the tool can be made more advanced and maybe include crafting, mobs, vendors etc. I hope you will enjoy it and if you have any corrections, errors or things like that just let me know in this thread.

Minor update... I found that the other way around might be just as interesting so now you can choose an item from the list and have locations found instead. I hope this will be useful as well.
Also I have started implementing botany data and hope to get it all up soon. |

So long as the other way still works, it sounds great! |

Looking good! Let me know if you decide to make it to where others can submit data and I can directly input information in Phase 4 when more information should be available. (as in not placeholder as it currently could be for everything over 35) |

Its a nice start Kida I like it.
A couple things for suggestions:
1) Lets add a section to allow others to add to the list (like Shroud > Central > 22x 17y needs Wind Shards added at height 3)
2) Since 'height' was a concept from 1.0 these feel more like 'positions' to me...8 at the top and 1 at the bottom. But if people like 'height' then that's fine too.
3) A static Interface might make more sense than a variable and out of order display listing. Since there are always 8 positions we setup the data to look like it does in the gathering log with a set 1-8 and then populate those slots with the data.
4) Expand the data to also include for each item:
A) Item Level
B) HQ Requirements (found with use of Preparation Skill)
5) Once we get some access to some nice maps for each gathering region, It would be neat to plot all the nodes on there with zoom and a hover-over popup of the info. Make it MUCH faster to see the information for the node than going through the dropdowns.
One other thing I've been meaning to ask and am in the midst of tracking it now...the 'bonus' possibilities for a node, are those static or random every-time a node regenerates? I haven't been able to track this yet but was going to look into this morning unless someone has already proven it one way or the other?

The required stat to obtain the Whisperer bonus seems to be static per node and per level tier. If you compare the stats from the two Whisperer bonus tabs for Mining and Botany, you'll see how I came up with the numbers in the 5th tab in the spreadsheet. |

Don't forget node to include node level in the resource finder. Edited by user Friday, July 12, 2013 12:18:48 PM(UTC)

Perfect I was hoping that was the case. Will make it much easier to pivot this data :D
