We all know the feeling when you're hunting fire crystals when every item you have is at the point where heat doesn't help and you open up a bunch of boxes and get nothing but heat.

I would like to propose that Fire crystal drop rates increase a small amount (somewhere around 3 to 5 percent increase) for every item equipped that needs to be forged. This rate would not be affected by weapons in the 3rd and 4th slot though. This rate would also not be affected by fully heated items that need to be alchemized.

And you'd think that would make it clear to OOO that they should fix it...

I think that we've been heard and that that's why they gave us dreams and nightmares the way they did- it ends with a large collection of boxes on depth 28 and gives ~23 radiant fire crystals per go. That's a solution to the radiant crystal problem if I ever saw one. If anything they should just add on to that so that it doesn't become dull, as it is very very necessary to heat things.

What is your opinion of my suggestion? (forget that there are others)

Good or bad?
New idea or been done before?

Fehzor: My biggest issue with

Fehzor: My biggest issue with Forging is that it takes an astronomically huge amount of crystals to heat. I'm still trying to get my 4* arsenal for HoH, so the Radiant problem hasn't even affected me personally yet - I'm just sick of having to do two RJP runs just so I can get enough Glowing crystals to have a 100% chance of Forge success. And please - don't discuss Dreams and Nightmares in too much detail, I don't want anyone to spoil it before I get there.

In regards to the OP: I would appreciate this quite a bit. It seems like every single floor that I do, once I get to the end, all of my equipment is already needing to be forged, so all those Heat embers I got? Worthless. I'd rather get something I actually need.

Well there's your problem. RJP is a crown rich arena, with few boxes. IMF is the inverse and is where you should be playing. That or hunt arenas,.treasure vaults, and danger rooms in the clockworks, that always works excellently. Especially when you couple it with Basil runs, then you're just rolling in the money.
