so they dropped about 0.5-1 per jade shard before the break.
Then they disabled it for a while
And now, consecutively I have to mine over 5 shards to get 1 jade.
At first I thought, okay, it’s just RNG, try again tomorrow
Day 2, only made 4 shards on the whole map.
Day 3, made 8,
Day 4 made 6…

This can’t be right.. right?
They ask us to pay 200 for the backpiece, but at this rate it’ll take till LS3ch5 to get 200 shards..

I managed to gather about 28 yesterday and complete hearts/jumping puzzle for an additional ~ 21 or so.

It’s not that hard to reasonably say you could get the backpack in about 4 days.

oh right, I forgot you can buy 3 a day per heart, stupid me,
but still, aren’t the drop rates extremely low compared to petrified wood and rubies?

I was getting 80 each day from farming the nodes, doing all the quests and getting noran’s chest , only did peach/magic/gathering daily, with 1 character ofc, though I did run out of karma and so I gave up on quests (except noran) today I got 75, but this I did the jumping puzzle on an alt as well.

Already got enough jades for the amulet + bp in 4 days (unbound magic is a kitten…)

I wouldn’t know, haven’t put the time into farming those.

However, compared to raids/achievements/MF crafting these are so unrealistically quick to obtain that i’m surprised they prices aren’t higher in all honesty.

Drop rate for me feels like OP mentioned, 0.5 to 1.
