What is the point. While looking at two exhausted marble deposits on my map
the Conscientious Geologist had failed to discover either after a dozen searches. As a matter of fact in
over 250 searches the Conscientious Geologist has never found any deposits.
I ask again....what is the point...I feel that I have been ripped off by BB on this purchase.
sounds like a bug to me, mine works perfectly, even finds 3 iron deposits sometimes
Some deposits can't be found together so it might be that which is the problem. There's iron deposits in s5, for example, that only 2 of which can be found/built on at the same time. I am fairly sure there are marble deposits that are the same. Maybe send him out again if another marble deposit expires, then you'll know if it's one of the either/or deposits or a bug.
I also find him very annoying. I know that you can find an extra deposit and that is what he sometimes do. Once he found it the fun is gone. I sent out to refill emty deposits - and with stone or marble I dont really care if I have one more or less - I just see an empty and sent out geo. And lots of times with marble and stone he comes back telling there is no empty even though I can see an empty deposit. So yes - I do find him more annoying than useful.
I'm not sure why there are bugs/issues/confusion with the geologist.... I only send him for iron mines when I need to recover many of them, and if there are 2 available he always finds them. I can't speak about the other mines.
I use my 2 for granite and marble and they find 2 every search also, providing 2 can be uncovered.
works for me on all deposits if they are available - i like him, just wish he was a bit faster :)
Con Geo is wonderful - finds double deposits 100% of time :)
i use for granite no problems with it at all
we use him for only marble and stone ,he always finds 2/3 at a time, he is too slow for mines, always use my jolly geologist for other mines mostly they find 2 iron mines at a time. :)
I have 2 of them and use them for any search, find them useful before I go off to send them on granite search.
If granite mines are bellow 120, best choice to send them
exactly, and that's why they will never get an mine search speed up book :DQuote:

u would say that upgrading a geo and using this skill produce a bug with the result u get less mines and not one more?Quote:
