said by Jodokast:there is an engineering item that lets you see extra mining\herb nodes.
Indeed there is. Plus - it doesn't have to be equipped to get the benefit. Plus plus - you don't have to have a certain engineering skill to use it. Meaning - my DK (eng/ench) will be making one of these and sending it over to my hunter (mine/BS) ASAP. And, I will have to keep my eyes open for that Pick of the Gods. I've finally got my mining up high enough to get at the Rich Ghost Iron nodes, plus I'm far enough away from the starting area that nodes last more than 6 seconds. 0__0
