That equates to hitting about 11 nodes on average that you need to hit, not 33.MongoJerry is right (and I can for sure confirm that ;)). You don't need 33 nodes but 33 Thorium Ores on average for one Arcane Crystal. That makes 11 nodes on average (~3 ores per node) or ~11 logins per day or about one day per Arcane Crystal in my case. Since I have two Horde Alchemy twinks, I can make one Arcanite Bar per day or about 30 per month, resulting in about 900 gold incl. all the gems and other goodies I find on the side. Plus, that is 900 gold for just riding along the spawning points without killing a single mob. My Thorium farming for 2-4 minutes per login is actually a welcomed break between the time when I level/grind up my Night Elf Druid ;)
