Nodes per Hour: How many do you get?

[eXtOphius]

Recently I've switched servers that I bot on, and I feel that my Nodes per Hour has gone down significantly. However, I can't exactly prove this, as I didn't keep track of it.

Old Server:
- 3500+ wowprogress.com population number; Horde dominant
- Alliance farming toon
- Herbalism & Mining
- Level 85, terrible gear (WotLK)

New Server:
- 6000+ wowprogress.com population number; Horde dominant
- Horde farming toons
- Herbalism & Mining
- Level 83 (as of the time of these Nodes per Hour tests) with a full set of Cataclysm greens & blues

Mount Hyjal Nodes per Hour:

[Gatherbuddy v2.0.0.617]:Gatherbuddy has been running for 0h 54m 24s. Collected a total of 55 nodes.
[Gatherbuddy v2.0.0.617]:Obsidium Deposit: 32
[Gatherbuddy v2.0.0.617]:Cinderbloom: 18
[Gatherbuddy v2.0.0.617]:Stormvine: 5

Uldum Nodes per Hour:

[Gatherbuddy v2.0.0.617]:Stopped gatherbuddy after gathering 776 nodes in 8h 55m 11s.
[Gatherbuddy v2.0.0.617]:Whiptail: 176
[Gatherbuddy v2.0.0.617]:Pyrite Deposit: 39
[Gatherbuddy v2.0.0.617]:Elementium Vein: 286
[Gatherbuddy v2.0.0.617]:Cinderbloom: 251
[Gatherbuddy v2.0.0.617]:Rich Elementium Vein: 24

*NOTE: As I hit ALT+TAB to go pull this data report, I just found my bot immediately following someone else using the same exact profile. I sent him a whisper but he's got "BadBoy_Levels" working. Nice!

I've now ran into 2-3 more easily identifiable botters since I have been watching this...

I guess that will account for the slow farming on this server.

What are your results like? Post your Nodes per Hour here!

Off the cuff I'm currently farming in Hyjal and/or Vash and I can tell you that you are seeing much lower numbers than what I'm getting. Vash is running around the 130/hr count, while Hyjal is somewhere near 100.

I'll run 8 hours each later today and edit the post with actual counts.

That's what I expected to hear.

I am also going to repost the Nodes per Hour after I wake up tomorrow (assuming they are still farming properly). I will also try to edit in more relevant information as to what I believe is contributing to the slow rate (aside from the main one being lots of botters).

You get much more nodes /HR if you mine/herb and not just herb or mine, also i do mine and herb but i am going for more mining as i dont want to fill my bag with to much hard to sell herbs so i made my own profile to skip som useless herbs, but if i want i could go for around 100/hr depending on time of day as at evening there is much more farmers.

These #'s should be higher, my bot had a few issues while I was gone.

[Gatherbuddy v2.0.0.660]:Stopped gatherbuddy after gathering 2120 nodes in 16h 49m 58s.

Herb + Mining.
