Deshiel Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 Any chance its's a bug? I'm getting other materials in crazy amounts, but thaumic rarely drops. Is it locaion locked or something? I have been trying to mine all around the cambion drift. Now, that I started building my nekramech, I noticed that the voidrig needs 80 of em. I almost noped out of it, but I'm going to keep farming.

NoLazyShadow Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 Yea, they're hard to find. Requiem monoliths can help you with that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aadi880 Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 For now, a vome requiem pylon will get you what you need. I have never gotten them from mining. I think its just bugged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arc_Xeno_JDSH Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 I recommend the tunnels closest to Necralisk if you are having trouble getting thaumica. Discovered it by accident when trying to get the stuff to drop and those tunnels drop tons. I've had multiple people also confirm it so have at it.

Marvelous_A Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 Took me around 30 mins to get 60 for Xaku moments ago. 20 from pylon 40 from mining. You are more likely to find it in caves. The rest is mostly RNG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackHargreav Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 It's rare but that rare. If you do a lot of mining you will find some. It's more common than the Scintillant at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheLexiConArtist Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 Standard Auron/Hesperon rare ore. The biggest problem is the Fortuna-style mining - you get slowed down by multi-point digs with no associated benefit, except a shred of a chance at extra Bonus Segments - but those are useless for Ores because they always give Gems. End result: Ore farming is terrible, whether you're looking to bulk-mine or hunting the rarest ones. Gems, though? Barely even worth doing the timing minigame on those nodes, you might as well just chip the minimums, since you get more than enough for your every need without trying (and if you get a rare gem from that, well, 1==1 no matter how well you mined).

White_Matter Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 100% it is a bug. I think the resource spawn algorithm is acting weird. I've heard some people consistently get it from pylons and certain mining spots(marked on the map) within reasonable amount of time(or so they claim) and yet, after visiting all those spots(and then some more) and doing pylons for a couple of hours I'm pretty confident that either those people are 100% lying, or there is something else going on. So far I was able to collect 82 of this thing and most of it during when I was actively searching for it. It is so rare that it isn't funny. On the other hand I heard people complain about other rare materails which I seem to come across pretty often. Given that these things aren't tradable, each player having a different resource randomization make things very unfair. I still couldn't build Xaku(granted I also can't find scintillants). edit : Forgot to add, I did all my farming with a resource booster and resource drop chance booster. Which makes things even more depressing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
