I have been in a period of quitting the game, then letting my addiction get the best of me and coming back now and then. Well, I did quit completely for about 2 weeks, and about 5 days before I quit I planted 20 tree saplings - 10 on my main and 10 on my mule. I gave my log in info to a friend in case he wanted to try and grow ores until i decided what to do with my gear and account - he ends up taking a break and calls me and tells me all the plants are dead. Well I eventually log on, and they all are indeed dead - except one. On my mule account one of the pots is an arcane pot. It appeared that he was able to feed this one, and fed it a wind crystal as it survived the away time.


Anyways I rarely hop on the game anymore, especially not on my mules, so I NEVER EVER CHECK THIS PLANT. I do check it again eventually and it needs fed, it was watersday I believe, and I gave it another wind crystal. 2-3 weeks later (last night) I decide to check out the plant. It's glowing and ready to be harvested...it's ICEDAY...i harvest it and I get TWO WIND ORES, which are going for 500k on Asura now!!! I had no idea 2 ores was even possible as I have never heard of it.

Just wanted to share and advise if you wanna grow elemental ore, try and just forget you're growing anything if you can.

It is very rare to get two ores, but it IS possible with an arcane pot. What arcane pots do is extend the growing time, which makes it easier to feed on certain days and harvest on full moons. Congrats :)
