Actually there has been somewhat seripus talk about oort being mineable.
Haven’t seen those aside from as part of a balance change for boundless multiverse update (which is not meant to be MMO), but either way there’s a lot of things in the game that can only be obtained doing certain things without alternative ways, and they’re still ok.
Also there are gems and metals from other sources.
Mainly hunting and events, though.
When you have played the game over 3 years you
Gonna change your mind about how we get stuff.
Also the community is small.
Theres like 2 Or 3 hunting groups that are doing it on regular Basic…
Me being In EU and not having 8 hours a day To play makes me the tiny ant screaming For help. Cause theres literally no EU hunts currently. Sure its not People fault but just saying that the community is small and it makes specific People to hoard it so…abd Then sell them For “overprice” wich is saw Last year… Some People were asking 1k per cane. So Wheres the fun again?
Yes they are cause again they are permanent features.
I get it if i need to mine gems… I get if i need to harvest plants.
We 2 have completely different opinions about this i see
Well, I do agree the price is high, and the limited drop rate nor the obtainable method doesn’t help. Adding more methods to obtain them or increasing the drop rates a bit to make them more available wouldn’t hurt.
Tbh, the 1k per cane really isn’t that high considering how low the drop rates are, they’re even lower than rough oort drop rates. But yes, this all goes back to making them more available and i do agree with that. It is a seasonal event item after all, no point if it’s unavailable for some people. I’m just saying it does have to have a limit to a point, and not jacked up all the way like some people want it, nor make it available all year round.
Have you checked Brown Town hunts done by @Bethlehem? She’s from UK, that should be EU times. I do join a lot of hunts, and honestly I found the most hunts are done around EU times. Got a list of them here.Exo Hunt at Gamma Gemis Dec16 canceled - #16 by Kokuma
Yesp no good times For my timezone.
3pm
4pm
4am
5am
8am.
Thats a gg
Sure Maybe if you are like nolife gamer Or you wanna live unhealthy not getting good sleepyou can attend those but People with actual duties are out of the box
So if you are calling those EU hunts
. We are still fckd
We hunt at 8pm UTC.
Thats just too late For me.
Im on +2 zone so 10pm For me.
The hunting scene is packed, there are many hunts at many different times. Grandeur hunt at 7pm your time.
Yes, I believe the red canes are stupidly difficult to obtain. A two hour hunt wont get you more than 200 even in a hunt group of 50+
Also believe the event drops far too late for people who have responsibilities and obligations at christmas time.
But also dont think it’s a reason to attack anybody elses lifestyle and throw shade on the amount of time some people play.

I don’t see the problem - enough people do the hunts, and those that do are getting enough candy canes. I can only speak for Brown hunts, but Beth has people from AUS, Asia, EU USE and USW timezones all managing to make it.
If you want a thing, you gots to work for it! Or, if you want everything handed to you, go buy a creative sovereign 
Im speaking For myself… And obviously wasnt meant To Hurt anyones feelings.
1k doesn’t sound bad, I would buy those canes for that price. If you still like mining it is profitable way spend time to get items you need from market.
@Buugi seeing how the red cane drop rates haven’t been increased (or crafting made cheaper), I haven’t yet found the motivation to jump in into this event. Guess same goes for you?

Yes please. Lets keep this civil.
Now, we have people from all over the globe. While those timezones may not work for you, it will for some others. That doesn’t automatically make them no lifers just cause their timezone works with the hunts that happen regularly. No need for implying such things and saying it’s not my fault you feel that way cause I worded my defense as such.
Also, this is a game. they work around the feelings of achievement. As so, the more time you invest, it’s logical you get more rewards for it. If you feel you get less compared to those ‘no lifers’ it is only because they invest more time than you do into this, otherwise they will find the game unfair if somebody that only logs in for half an hour a day can achieve the same as they do for investing hours.

I absolutely hate not participating in Boundless events but aaah what can I do. Next best thing is to shell a ludicrous 1k or so per cane which I also won’t do .

If you’re wanting a specific colour of totem, i probably have it and happily gift it to a lovely gentleman such as you. Seeing as though you searched Brown Town for a secret (we actually have one now)
