Ressource Nodes Hint #1 (Beginners)

Mark each and every ressource node you encounter on your minimap, you'll never know when and if you need it and for everyone who hasn't tried his hand in crafting yet, believe me searching for those nodes is a real pain in the ass.

PS: just right click on your Minimap in the upper right corner of your screen to place those markers.

thanks, this will come in handy. do they show up on resource areas anyway?

There are so called ressource areas, I know of three of them, Poitain, Lacheish Plains and the Purple Lotus Swamps. All those Areas are with a relatively low monster population and in all of those areas Guild Cities can be build furthermore, in all of those areas there is at least one NPC city inhabited by Tradeskill trainers who give the quests nessecairy to learn a trade skill.

BUT the ressource nodes can be found in nearly every area (exceptions are for e.g. inside of cities or dungeons)

ours is in Lacheish right?

Yes.
