Why is that when i mine for ores, my teammates get all the ores o.O
Shouldn't those ores be mine considering i brought the mine bombs?

I keep saying to myself why dont they just make it whoever bombs it gets 3-4 and then 1/2 chance for every 1 else to get 1..? makes sense no?
but then nexon would prob be like... o well then theres no incentive to fight.. ~_~

Gold does the same thing. Even if you pick it up, it usually goes to a party member. Ergs and remnants are other things that follow the same pattern of being divided up randomly. Nothing you can do about it really.

It's just random. It prevents infighting over resources. Imagine if everyone in your party brought their own mine bombs and fought over every mine deposit.

^This. I kinda like it the way it is. Lets one person bring mine bombs, then the others in your party can bring other secondary weapons to help with the boss fight or whatever.

But it also discourgues people from mining in the first place
Up until Formor base
I see nobody ever mining

I almost always have one or even two people mining in casual farm missions. No matter who is mining everyone gets a chance at one or two superior irons and that is a pretty good motivator. The person mining spends less money on mine bombs than other secondaries (Palalas, spears) and gets credit to mine titles.

Meh, personally I think its more of a need thing. For earlier equipment, the ore is a lot more accessible, and a lot cheaper. As you get higher up, and have to have over 100 Superior ores just to make the Exquisite for your set, it becomes more of an obligation to have someone mine, since not only is the ore in Fomorian Base wanted, but it is also a lot more costly, thus one can get more out of the ore by mining, in comparison to the earlier boats.

Im currently sufferning from this ore drop distribution. That's why I like solo cause all the ores go to me >:3
- One boat with me and this guy that kept dying, he got 100% of the mine bomb by me, at the end I hat to solo the boss [end of story]

I don't understand why ores/gold isn't round robin, really seems like the only fair way to go about it.
