| All Drillers MUST READ if you havent noticed yet... but I have, and I kinda proved it (atleast I see it that way)
but while I was digging for a rare item at this place (i wont say what and where I don't want any of you stealing my profits) I found out something.
After I cleared a huge area and went on to a different place, then came back. I noticed that the items keeped respawning in random locations (new spots appeared close to me and where I recently dug up)
so what I tried to do was clear an entire regional space (about 150x150 red circles)
then went to a different region dug up a couple items went back and found that the exact items(minus a few cuz of randomness) respawned into the region I just cleared out
so I though this would be a GREAT way to many TONS of cash FAST. So I tried it out again
except this time with PPP's at gate to Oops.
so I went to gate to oops (smallest map) and then went on the hunt for the one and only PPP in that whole region. I finally found it after a couple hours of digging (while looking I cleared a large area the span of the WHOLE right hand side of the map look a half dozen blue drills but I did it).
After I found the PPP I ran back to right side of the map where I recenlty cleared, and spammed basic detect to see if there where new red circles.. and what do you know I found a red circle where I had recently dug up. So I started to dig at that spot and... found another PPP (that makes 2 within 10 mins). Ran around again found a couple new spots dug again... and again another PPP + junk (3 withing 15 mins). Did this again found another + junk(4 within 20mins). Ran around again but didn't find one this time (must have spawned on the left side) of the screen so i gave up. and went to sell my 4 PPP's
so what I'm trying to point of is, items respawn. If you dig an item up (like monsters) it will respawn almost instantly except in a random spot.
so if u got basic detect... and ur looking for I dunno craft/custom gear in toilet 1 or something, I got some advice for you.
clear out an entire area look for your item then backtrack and try to dig it back up again
ty for ur time
oh ya forgot to sum up my total for you (PPP sold at mego for 650k-750k I made around 1.5-2.5m for like 2 hours and 20 mins work)
