Ores

Ores are gathered by mining resource nodes containing the ore. Ores are utilized in almost every single crafting recipe, and are also needed to complete Quests. All resource nodes generate randomly from the range depending on the ore. Results are skewed so that lower numbers are more common than higher numbers.

Some important things to note:

All resource nodes “regenerate” when they run out of ore, or when they hit their “death” time. Regenerating means a resource node is randomly generated again from scratch, meaning it might not even be the same type of ore.
Exp is always +/- 15% of the base value listed.
Density raises or lowers the gather action time. A density of 100% is the average gather time, which is 60 seconds.
Purity raises or lowers the amount of ore gathered. A purity of 100% is the average gather amount, which is 16 ore.

Orthoclase

Orthoclase is the first ore that all new players are able to start mining right away. It is the basis for your first tier of armor, and also a base ingredient for Reinforcements and Energizements. Because all upgrade items require the tier before them, Orthoclase will always be in demand.
