Better orb dropping rate

The one thing i suggest is a (at least a little) higher orb dropping rate, because i'm sure everyone knows that hunting orbs of alchemy is such a pain in this game, it takes a huge amount of time. I'm sure a lot of people abandoned the game doing orb hunts so please, increase the orb dropping rate at least 7 or 14%, it would help a lot, really!

Just so you know, there are other methods of obtaining orbs other than farming for them all day long.

You can buy Orbs of Alchemy from the Supply Depot with all those excess Crowns you get from you orb hunts. You can also buy them from the Auction House (although this usually isn't worth it as they're pretty overpriced).

Also, while there's nothing so far that outright proves that it's true, playing on Elite difficulty seems to give better Orb drop rates.

I already know that, i buy

I already know that, i buy orbs from the Supply Depot when i have enough Crowns. Buying them from the Auction house is worth if you need just one, and playing on elite definitely increases the chances of getting orbs, but you must have a good skill to survive (that's not a problem to me), but getting Crowns takes a lot of time too, and increasing the drop rate wouldn't hurt anyone.

"and increasing the drop rate wouldn't hurt anyone."

Actually, it would. More orbs = people progress through the game faster than intended = they get bored faster = they quit = OOO's begins losing money.

The drop rates are fine as is, you just need to be patient.

Back in the old days, we don't have free orbs dropping everywhere. We paid a solid 800 energy for a 5 star item.

Right now? Hey, it's 800 energy for enough orbs to craft a 5 star item and free orbs are dropping here and there.

What Zaffy-Laffy says is true: the orbs are strictly an improvement from what we had before.

If you're gonna ask for a orb drop rate increase, it might as well go towards fire crystals, and OOO will get sick of all the complaining, then we'd all be back to square one: Elevator costs, no forge, and crafting with actual energy.

Back in my day, we didn't get no stinkin' orbs, you lazy kids!
