Every single dungeon in it so far is beast.
:l
Either this group I keep hearing about that's only collecting green/yellow is doing a VERY good job, or something is unbalanced.
I won't even mention how many other gates for the future have mostly beast.
That group is just a rumor. Considering the amount of minerals needed to complete stratums, several players would need to collect the minerals for quite a long time - Not even a full guild would be able to keep absolute control over several stratums in the current system.
This is simply the effect of auto-sell; Luminite and Valestone are the most common minerals, (For example: I have been keeping my minerals ever since the early release - Luminite is at 787, Valestone is at 901, and everything else around 740) and new players do not know how stratums work and don't care (even less because the tutorial about minerals simply encourages auto-selling), so they just auto-sell, and this happens.
The devs need to understand that the current auto-sell/boosting system is severely flawed and needs to be modified. (in the current system, if you wanted to control the auto-selling frenzy to make the stratums you want, you'd need quite literally from two millions to five millions of crowns to boost 3 minerals in the specific stratum to change, and 2 on other random stratums. And that's for a single, new stratum. Boosting prices will probably go up even more, if it continues like this)
The weird thing is, I can't think of a reason a group of people would have financial interest in encouraging a rare stratum to occur.
Rare stratums means rare materials, means the possibility to corner markets and make great profits. Why would you ever actively spend exorbitant sums in order to destroy a potentially lucrative source of money?
It's too late for Coral Skull. Another lame, lame Vanaduke gate.
Devs, get rid of minerals entirely and just keep randomizing stratums forever.
I really like this idea. The amount of crowns for selling minerals is negligible to the crowns earned while exploring a dungeon. This stops cooperating commerce guilds from even getting the idea of controlling gates to control prices.
I think it's because people auto sell everything, and apparently whatever minerals generate beast floors are slightly more common than the others.
