So the abandoned buildings crumble to dust over time, instead of just vanish… But… Well it solved some problems, and introduced others.

I agree it made scavenging a build more fun but might have negatively affected gem mining. If I have to choose, I choose mining over scavenging.

iron hammer, few hours serp with a focused mining build and u have enough diamonds to mass craft them in the compactor. Iron is not bad. Your skill builds are, or ur location. Or you are way too low lvl to be in serp.
That’s a bit steep. I sell titanium tools for 1199c 
Honestly I’ve enjoyed the grind I have 1 character level 33. And I saved up money went to surfin dig down to 5 hit rocks for a while got a few diamonds and titanium traded thisebin for cash. And I also farmed fib leaves and sold a ton of saltp. Then when I had enough I bit the bullet bought. 30k hammer bought persisting pies and went off on my own. I collect 150 or so gems. Sell those at 600 each and you can now buy more hammers or whatever else you want. I just now got titanium furnaces but ine been using titanium hammers and axes for like 10 levels
And then slap kabaam Take away all mid level support. Many of us did bomb mining at mid level. This took away much of that grind feeling. Hoping they bring it back. Definitely agree with you here.

Guess my biggest gripe is that mid-game has been punched, kicked and beat up by every nerf so far.
Not trying to change minds, just adding data to the pot.
Literally yesterday, I finally broke through the diamond wall. I did this with a generalized char lvl 40 with two stacks of iron hammerss, some cooked prime meat and 11 persisting stews. I had gotten a diamond from a lvl 1 meteor on Delta, so I popped that in, took a couple swigs of whiskey ( I’m over 21 and a sissy), put on something to watch on Netflix, and set off to Surfin’ Safari.
Ran around for about 20 minutes (6/8 agi) to discover regions and avoid mighty cuttles and find a decent spot to start. Found a decent spot and got down to about 12. Then dug tunnels with the persisting buff and about 2-3 hits per rock with iron hammers. Found 81 diamonds and a good amount of titanium. Enough for 5 titanium furnaces! And 80 diamonds is enough for 10 basic coils. Also several smart stacks of Rock, bunch of hard and medium coal, components from cliff faces.
I did have to contend with lava, but I have a system that kept it minimally invasive, and with tunnels from other people. I just shifted a couple blocks left or right or up or down. All this took about 1 hour of actual digging. I still have some of the persisting stews…
I’ve found that it does take effort and planning, as well as a decently developed skill tree, which you really should have by lvl 40. But after that, all you need to worry about is being at the right attitude and being careful with lava. Btb, chisel mining doesn’t really work anymore. Lava goes right through…
If the game is so boring and grindy you have’to drink alcohol and watch Netflix while you play…
Where do you sell these 1199 titanium tools?
I’ll buy them all 
Lmao. The whiskey was for my fear. I do the same when I play ark or witcher or dark souls. I freaked out the first time I was attacked by a compy.
As for the neflix, it helps the time pass by. I also do podcasts and audiobooks.
All games will have some type of grind, and for me personally, I don’t mind this. I just settle in and play and watch and have existential crises. A bit of a mindless grind is actually relaxing for me after a day at work.

Black Light. Right in the center of town. The way to get to Black Light through Portal Seekers is on the Biitula Hub.

thats exacly how i do it.
after work 2-3 hours grinding on sand or rocks, some neflix, youtube or audiobook.
halfbrain grinding is ok, better than grinding games that need full attention and still being repetitive.

I also fell for the bait, shop price is indeed 2199 (not a happy camper for the waste of time)
Find shops off the portal hubs. You should not be dropping more than 2,000-2,500 for titanium. They sometimes drop as low as 1,800
