Yesterday I was having a quick conservation with a fellow competitor called Tohma. He was getting tired of the price decline of elemental ores, namely the Ice Ores. Well the RMTs ditched digging and went to elemental ore gardening in recent months, usually going for Ice Ores as the failure of that tree sapling recipe is an item that sells to NPC vendor for ~1600 gil and each sapling plant yields about 4-8 of them on failure.
Even though I was getting an extra hour of sleep, I went to bed rather early after dumping excess stuff (BST and some PLD) gear to one of my mules. I woke up on Iceday but did not dig as Ice Ores sell less than Orich. Ores right now. I dug on Lightningday, which is right before JP midnight but failed to pull up any ores before fatigue. I mostly got crap except for enough mythril beastcoins to finish off a stack. After JP midnight passed it was lightsday, so I hit teleport-dem to the highlands after water element quickly ended in Rolanberry, as lightning was up. Within 5 or 6 digs I got an light ore, and the zone quickly ran dry after that with nothing else digging up of note. I went back to Rolanberry as the water element came back up but wound up with tons of crap.
Couple weeks ago, I was forced to dig at 7% again, got a single wind ore for my troubles - it was fitting as it was the first elemental ore since the end of August.
Just as I was getting ready to head off for church, Tohma told me he pulled up 2 light ores in Ronfaure in foggy weather. He skipped Iceday as well.
