I really feel like the shark has been jumped here. Umbris is a resource gated by player level and ability. Anyone that wants it has to put in the work and then has as much chance as anyone else to obtain it. Umbris is not needed at this point in the game. Why not keep it rare for now and allow it to function as a third rare item in the economy along with Oort and RR Feathers?
Is it discriminatory that new players on level one planets cannot mine diamonds?
I really think the line is being blurred here between elitism and tyranny. Becoming elite is in no way a bad thing, it just means a degree of excellence has been gained that surpasses others by far. Elite individuals are far more likely to become tyrannic due to their abilities. So, in this way, being elite is actually like being the gun, and itâs solely up to the user whether they use that power for good, evil, or they can let it slip away.

You and I will have to agree to disagree. It took all my restraint to not go super sarcastic. . .
I did go back and look at a lot of your feedback to me and we can continue this in private, but I noticed a very negative theme where much of your feedback to me was not only unhelpful and off topic, but also, ironically, derogatory and closed-minded. Letâs just say you are not a guy Iâd invite to my party.
We werenât, be we are now! I donât want an umbris planet, I want an umbris tree I can grow. I want to be able to prune it every day for seeds and more umbris ore, and slowly plant an entire planet as umbris trees.
Hey Buddy, just to be clear, when i say trophy items, I mean âtrophiesâ. As in achievable trophies rather than items like umbris, or other craft requirementsâŚ
I might not have been clear, sorryâŚ
Oh, no worry there. I probably should have typed out âquoted for truthâ instead of abbreviating it before moving on to discuss the idea behind the OP here.
Iâd love to get the trophies that the devs have shown in the past, or some items that require a defined set/range of activities, preferably not entirely random drops and not tradeable.
Iâm not even against some super rare blocks.
But not items with functions that affect the economic balance of the game like this. Iâm not close with Orrian but it;'s easy to see why this thread triggered some animosity. Umbris is the last remaining piece of a coin gate (gate? bonus? whatever⌠) and this basically amounts to âhey letâs try and make it so that only the very wealthy can afford to earn more coinsâ.
Literally starting it off with âhey I already got mine soâŚâ ?? Again itâs not even personal but Iâm surprised this thread stayed as light as it did.
I just find it weird how no Umbris planet has spawned by now. I have lots of stuff stockpiled for when I get a fully coiled chrysominther. So much for the itemsinkâŚ
