    Unlike the "Improved farm" issue, which actually helped players and made the farm useful, this one will probably never be fixed.

    If the ability does not go along with other abilities do devs recognize this as a problem that will be solved in the future? Most concerned about copper deposits, because I need them fast and big.

    Merged
    Me and my guild mates are wondering exactly the same: do the skills of finding "second deposit" result for this geo in finding more than two? Or will it ALWAYS be just two?

    Conscientious Geologist

    About those fast deposits. Issue really are those "tooltips" that appear unlike other geodudes.

    This is how it looks when Conscientious Geologist finds slow deposit.


    and this is how it looks when it finds fast



    Other geodudes will not show that tooltip on failed searches.

    So for some reason Conscientious Geologist shows that tooltip midway and others do not. Every geodude shows success at top of the list.

    I just found three marble deposits with one search using the "Two Marble in One" skill on my Conscientious Geologist.

    Agree - it is "possible" to find an 11th marble deposit because a skilled geo can find it.
    So this geo should find it if it hasn't already been found.

    The precedent was set with the Lucky Explorer, who effectively has the "find a nice buff" skill built in. It's natural to think the new geologist has the "Lucky Find" skill built in - especially when reading his description. If "Lucky find" can find one more than the maximum (which in itself is impossible since a maximum is a hard limit), then the new geo should find one more "when possible".

    Considering BB are happy to change specification after a new feature goes live and is in use (for instance changing a level 5 improved farm to use 5 wheat deposits per cycle when it was originally 1 per cycle no matter what the level) then I'm sure they'll receive no complaints if they change the new geo. Well, ok, they'll receive complaints, someone always complains about a change, but it still needs to be changed.

    If it helps, I can confirm that my ConGeo found an extra deposit which enabled me to complete the "Lay of the Land" achievement.
    None of my geos have the Lucky Find skill.

    Finally a positive sound upon the brave "Geo+conscience", now I am sure my PK investment was a correct one. Thanks for the post Sheddoe !!
    Last thing needed, in what condition can an extra deposit be uncovered ?? Time will cure. Peace to all.

    Are you sure you didn't find the first iron deposit on the new islands along with the rest of the old deposits. This gave me the "Lay of the Land"

    Very sure. The two archipelago iron mines I can access were already up and running.
    I can't remember what I was searching for (though I have a faint memory that it was stone??)...
    Remind me, which deposits have the possibility of an extra (on the main island)?
