Bungee needs to do something about this. I am sick of looking materials because every time I go to get materials there's several idiots who can't farm correctly and they only look at half of the spots and won't follow you and you end up missing the spots they go to because they aren't near you. If you're to dumb to farm them then sell the game. Something needs to change I think.

If that is happening, leave that shard and reload it so they are gone? you know.. leave the area then come back.. It's not that hard to just leave them to their "failed" farming as you say.
