Yeah, enemies are T4 and very hard to kill with my T1 gear but when I break copper veins nothing spawns.

Awesome, thanks for the details.  I should be able to fix it with that knowledge in hand!

Completely unrelated question: Was there not a plan at one point for a diving suit to allow ocean exploration? I messed around in the oceans a bit with the old health system, when I could constantly slam healing potions to allow for it. But now that deep sea diving is going to mean acid water constantly chipping away at my buffed health total until I lose it completely, it seems that the price of diving is too high.

I hate to quote myself, but I'm still curious about this from earlier and I'm afraid it got missed. Any pearls of wisdom to offer on this subject?

Hmmm, I really can't duplicate this.  If anyone has a save with steps to repro, that would be great.  Josh, if you see this on Monday and have time, that would be great.

Sorry, didn't mean to ignore it!  I meant to respond and apparently didn't.  Being able to go ocean diving is definitely still planned, and something that I really want to focus on in perhaps two weeks or so.  After the change to beta series 3, in other words, but well before 1.0.  I'm not sure about doing a diving suit, I've been really going back and forth on that one.  But the ability to transmogrify into a fish is a definite thing.

EDIT: Fish, not bat. ;)
