Decided to share my findings with you all ^^.  I do know that they are 3hr respawn and i believe i found all the possible nodes.  But if i've missed a few please let me know and i'll be sure to add them. Also plan on adding in the Ancient Log locations aswell.

[Thuley]

Nicely done.  Thanks!

[Chiefkapua]

a little update but.....it seems they changed the spawn locations of the orichalcum.  All of last week the nodes i posted never changed, but for some reason this morning they have all changed locations.  I'll attempt to further indulge into this and maybe   find some pattern.

[Ravengyre]

They change when the server goes down for an update.

I found two a few days ago in the northern part of Frostgorge sound, where the small tribe of Kodan and level 80 enemies are - it would be the northeast tip of the map you have up there.

[Ravengyre]

As of the 17th, a couple of nodes are:
Cursed Shore:
2 @ Desmina's Hallows (South of Arah in the are with the overhanging rocks)
2 @ Harbinger Torch (northern part of the Grenth Island)
Frostgorge Sound:
1 @ Slough of Despond waypoint (right to the south of the camp)

Those are all I have found so far without really looking.

[TheAngryLuddite]

They just updated the game today, so I'll check and see if the nodes I've been hitting in the 80 Orr zone have moved (assuming they will have).

[EDIT]

Found two so far today in the cursed shore.

One is up north on the ridge across the river from the R&D waypoint - you should be able to see the base from the ori's location.

Second, is to the south a little bit inland from Sharn's Free Camp (poi), near Desmina's Hollow (where all the undead pirates are).

I think that we will just keep a running tally as is, whenever someone finds one they can posts to the thread either as text only or with map.  The reader can then see what date the post was made and whether it's still up-to-date or whether it was before the most recent server restart.

Cursed Shore:

• North of Meddler's
  
• West of Meddler's (underwater)
  
• North of Anchorage
  
• East of Sharn's Free Camp back in the cave
  
• North-West of R&D Waypoint

Malchor's Leap:

• South-East of Waste Hollows WP (NW of Kitah Manse PoI)

• South of Pagga's Waypoint (The only way to get to it is to go through the jumping puzzle that begins at Hope Falls PoI. Once you're in there if you make your way to the chests there's a ramp leading up and out of the cave, the node is up there.)

Frostgorge Sound:

• Ice Floe Waypoint
  
• South-West of Slough of Despond Waypoint

[lmarklar]

Remm's is no longer valid, they did another new build and it reset all the nodes.  There is another node in the jumping puzzle in Malachors Leap, but that's as far as I got before I logged.

[remm]

Sigh, I'll get back in there tonight and try to update the list.

[Michadia]

In case you guys haven't had time to map the Cursed Shore nodes since Wednesday's reset, this is what I have so far:



I haven't mapped Malchor's Leap. I didn't make a map for Frostgorge Sound since three of the four nodes are near where Claw spawns.

Nicely done Michadia, I took the liberty to embed the image.

I'm going to attempt to keep an up to date album of the nodes at michadia.imgur.com.

UPDATE 08OCT12: I believe these are complete and accurate maps with one possible exception. The node near on the cliff near the vista north of the Union Waypoint in Malchor's Leap (indicated by a "?" in the corner of the icon) appears to have been disabled. I mapped it last night but did not mine it. I was unable to harvest it when I returned this morning. It is possible that there is a new Orichalcum node in Malchor's Leap to replace it. I will not be going out of my way to find it but I am willing to update the map if someone else does. The nodes with a red "Q" are on a shorter respawn timer (<9 hours) while the rest are on a longer (>9 hours) or variable timer.

UPDATE 09OCT12: According to a red post, Orichalcum and Ancient Sapling nodes will respawn once every 24 hours.

However, I was able to mine the two south east Orichalcum ore in Cursed Shore three times between 1700 PST on the 8th and 1640 on the 9th. I will be reporting this, as requested in the linked thread.

This is really helpful man. Please keep that link updated every week )
