COBALT ORE FFIXV FULL
Howling Fjords on a full loop of the area was yielding a 30% hit rate, which more than makes up for the overall scarcity of nodes compared to other areas. Previously, I had been running zul'drak and I found most of the nodes, even at off-peak times were inactive, giving roughly a 10% hit rate (of the known gathermate nodes). This is around double what I found in Zul'Drak in a similar timeframe. (I just made 3 more runs, I got 316 ore this time, so the amount is consistant, I was there at around 4pm servertime, weekday.)Ĭomment by 9180164.3 has just gone live and the previous post is still true.Īll this data was collected around midnight GMT, with a 280% mount and the bountiful bags perk. I hope this helped ppl farming, if you got some hope from this please mark it up so others can see it. So to sum up, I don't think it's that bad really, it's not thorium ore in Ungoro but it's not bad. I didn't miss even one node on this map (except underwater nodes), it took about 35-40 minutes to do 3 clean sweeps in the time I also killed 3 rares which was nice :D (I farmed at about 10am servertime weekday) I also googled quick "Mining 1-525 guide" this gave me a quick map of the Howling Fjord. I used this instead of Gatherer because gatherer doesn't by default come with a database and the one they do supply is way way out of date. I used this addon to help me - GatherMate2 & the GatherMate2 database both downloaded from Curse.

Cobalt blue (cobalt(II) aluminate, CoAl2O4) gives a distinctive deep blue color to glass, ceramics, inks, paints, and varnishes. Cobalt is used in the preparation of magnetic, wear-resistant, and high-strength alloys. The copper belt in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Zambia yields most of the worldwide mined cobalt. It is found in various metallic-lustred ores for example cobaltite (CoAsS), but it is produced as a by-product of copper and nickel mining. Although cobalt-based colors and pigments have been used since ancient times, and miners have long used the name kobold ore for some minerals, cobalt was only discovered in 1735 by Georg Brandt. Despite being named after (and resembling) the material, the Cobalt Shield cannot be made from ore/bars, as it predates the addition of Cobalt.Comment by 65439Cobalt is actually a real mineral and here is the article about it :Ĭobalt (pronounced /ˈkoʊbɒlt/) is a hard, lustrous, grey metal, a chemical element with symbol Co.Cobalt Ore's inventory sprite is the same as the one for Adamantite Ore, except rotated and colored blue.Several Cobalt items in the game are Japanese-themed, namely the Cobalt Naginata, Cobalt Armor and the Cobalt Sword which resembles a katana.This made cobalt, along with lapis lazuli, one of the few mineral blue pigments, and therefore was an extremely valuable commodity. Its primary historic use was as a pigment used especially in glass or porcelain, as it turns a rich "cobalt blue" when in the compound form of smaltite, made of cobalt, iron, and nickel combined with arsenic. Pure cobalt is an element found on the periodic table just after iron, and is actually silver-like in color, however it is never found pure in nature.

It is named after the Kobold, at that time thought of as a mischievous spirit this is because smelting its ores were difficult and would often release toxic fumes.

Actual Cobalt is a poisonous, magnetic metal (though it is actually a key part of vitamin B12, which is necessary for living beings and has extremely low toxicity).
