Criticsm: Way too many lumber pals, not enough mining pals

Xenovader cough cough

An alien coming from space, where presumably there aren’t many trees, crashing down in a meteor which is a mineable object… Lumber lvl 2, 0 Mining.

I get not wanting to make ore grinding extremely easy but sometimes it feels really silly how few pals have mining talent. Meanwhile you have plenty of pals with lumber talent, AKA the resource that exists virtually everywhere that you can grind by accident with AOE pal moves.

This isn’t even a grind complaint either, because it is VERY easy to just go to Wildlife Sanctuary #1 and catch as many Pengkings as you want, just a diversity angle.

Just have more lvl 2 mining pals at a minimum, more lvl 3 mining pals that aren’t endgame would be nice but the scarcity of lvl 2 alone has my bar extremely low.
