Using overload on any hardened node never gives me the random rousing essence as per the capstone for Mastering the Elements, anyone else confirm? Ive been able to get it to work for all other elemental nodes
I don’t think hardened is an elemental type. I thought it was like “rich” from previous tiers.
Maybe?
Hardened nodes are Earth nodes.
OP, when you overload an earth node, watch the area around the node very carefully. You should see 3-4 ‘shards’ of the node tumble off of it and land close to the node (or inside it, if the node is in a particularly odd spot). You mine those shards to get the 4-8 rousing earth from overloading the node. Wait I’m dumb, OP’s asking about the 40/40 mastering the elements bonus. Don’t mind me, I’m sleep deprived.
Hardened is the Earth elemental type indeed, although all nodes that are not Serevite or Draconium (aka enhanced by some tag) are considered elemental nodes. The feature works for every node but Hardened
Are they? Huh, good to know.
