Infinite Mining Node Exploit (Patreon)

"There is currently an exploit taking place with an infinitely-spawning Rich Bismuth node at the Livia’s Patience section of Hallowfall, which is at the southern area of the map, right on the border of Azj’kahet.

It’s in that little town with all the Nerubian mobs....There’s a building there...

what happens is that when you mine it, you don’t get any ore from it, so it doesn’t despawn. What the exploiters are doing is abusing the mining talent that gives Rich nodes a chance to spawn an extra smaller node. So basically, all 8 of them spam-click on the Rich node, and since it doesn’t ever despawn, they create an endless amount of the free proc small Bismuth nodes, which they loot. An endless mining node."

I am posting this partly as a warning as Blizzard has been known to employ this type of node deliberately to track bots. If you attempt to take advantage of this situation probably best to do so with a disposable account if possible, especially when mining for longer periods.
