Thaumica Mineral on Deimos

[-AT-AnnunakalFrahir]

This is the most annoying thing I have ever farmed on Warframe from 5 Years playing this game. Am limited to play certain hours a week, and I had to instead play a stupid mini-game (Mining) which led to only 20 Thaumica in three hours of doing so. Don't tell me to do Pillars cause I have tried and still does not help + it's stupid to exit and re-exit game. It's just drop tables are annoying for this resource. Will the drop rate be patched or what? And yes I am tilted xD

try the caves. I get around 50 thaumica per 30 minutes without resource booster. Doesnt seem to drop at all from vaults or bounties though, you have to actually mine for it.

I have searched caves. From three days of three hours each playing warframe, Only got 20 Thaumica from caves.

I never did any mining and only did the Towers or the Vault and got 200.

I've come to the conclusion that something very strange is going on with the Deimos content. I don't know if its about PC's vs consoles or different consoles, but it seems like different players are getting very different experiences.  Some are  getting the minerals and gems they need. Others not.  Some are getting the Common Avichaea for the rank up, others aren't. This is more than just  Random Number Generator (RNG). If it was just RNG, you'd have days where you did good and days where you did bad.  Is it possible  the haves and have nots are consistently the same players?  How do they seed that RNG anyway? Taking a hash of a user id or something like that? Or it could be the RNG is just making me paranoid as heck.

It's far more reliable to farm the open-world pillars for Thaumica than trying to mine for it. Especially if you have a resource drop chance booster that greatly increases the number of blue gem nodes and reduces the number of orange ore nodes.

If you go directly to the Cambrion Drift from your orbiter, the first tunnel (that leads to outside) often has Thaumica.

And yes, do the pylons. Kill with your operator and you'll get tons of good stuff.

Thaum comes from yellow nodes...  BUt yellow nodes are 95% Bapholite, 4% adraml, and 1% thaum.    Atleast thats how it feels.  If you get extra resource chance in a yellow node it usually gets bumped to the rarer stuff like Tiamat or that other yellow one Hec-something or xenohaust.  

Necrothene and Thaum = rarest crap in Deimos lol.   

Bapholite = waaaaay  waaaaaaay to common.
