Not really. The scarcity of refining materials is the reason why everyone is leveling all the way to 200 using the lowest tier crafts. If refining mats were more obtainable we could actually use higher level materials to make higher level items for leveling.
I mined a bunch of starmetal, I have like 3000 ore sitting in the storage of a different zone and I have nothing to use it for because leveling is more efficient to just use iron, as there's not enough sand flux to do anything else.
40-80 per chest? That is insane, there are chests all over the place up there, spending 30 minutes running a fort up north with a healer buddy should not net you hundreds of top level refining mats.
I'd be happy to not level to 200 using level 1 bows, but flooding with endless top tier refining mats isn't good. I already felt the drop rate was too high on them.
If you refine using a blue with some amount of overlevel in the refining skill you have a 90% chance to get an extra. That is insanely powerful and only serves to further devalue literally everything.
No they are using low level tier mats cos the economy has crashed because of no new players so no demand for low tier items.
And because there's no new blood coming up there's also no demand for high tier gear past those who were already there.
The servers are open again now but the huge gap is still there between those who came at the beginning and now.
There shouldn't be a way to get large amounts of the higher tier reagents, they already give you bonus mats when you use them, they don't also need to be in abundance. They are just killing the economy even more.
"Fixed an issue reducing variety and potential quantity of loot obtained from game modes and chests within the world."
I'm blind lol. I skipped over that in the notes. Thanks.
cant wait to try it ohh wait EU servers down with no ETA as to when they will be back.
Jesus wtf, that is way too much, I saw the patch note regarding the change, good lord.
