Gathering/Motherlode Update

[Realunstable]

It's been suggested before that gathering nodes work like they do in retail. Each player sees the node and it remains visible for them until they mine or herblore it. Then that player wont see the node anymore until it's normal respawn timer. It's basically personal loot for gathering.

However a huge change that could be done to Motherlodes if the improved gathering update were to see the light of day is; you could put the Motherlodes on a "Daily Charge" system very similar to Divine Locations from Runescape. Players can only gather x amount of materials per day from Divine Locations. (There's a few different ways to increase the amount of charges and even a way you can turn the material into level experience, but those aren't really necessary. ) This way you could have Motherlodes pretty much always up or respawning more often in more locations.
