Floating Boulder ★★★
Location
South Shroud holds 64 fisher nodes, 6 of them time-restricted and the other 58 available at any hour. At level 50 this is higher than 54 of the other 63, which span levels 5 to 50. This one is not among the 6 that are, so it needs no timing — the 58 untimed nodes here can be worked in any order.
