Ok guys, this might be a bit of a stretch, but the ingrediants thing is bugging me a bit. The varying catch rates and chances of running into specific ingrediant types is a bit of a pain in the ■■■. Specifically Genies, Goldmouths, and Cyrstalmouths. I understand these are supposed to be harder to get, but the ticket cost for a chance at these along with the crappy catch rate of 43% for Genies and 35% or less for Crystalmouths and such.
My proposal is to either increase the catch rate for all ingrediants to 65%, I think this is fair and still makes it not guaranteed to get ingrediants but gives a better shot at Rare items that have less chance of showing up as it is for a high cost in tickets that eventually just become a chore.
Second proposal is to make the monthly Ingrediant Event where you can pick an element and battle to get 3 random ingrediants from that element a Daily event in the same area. By this I mean make it a once per day Event that you can do on a continuous basis or have a maximum number on it of some sort, or have no max number at all and just use this to replace the ingrediant missions as a whole with the exception of the Mouths and Pyramid missions. Pretty certain everyone agrees this is the most effective way of getting specific ingrediants, but it only happening for a short span each month and typically having other high ticket events going on at the same time makes it aggravating to have to choose between participating in PvE events that use tickets (Showdown Tower, Okkult, Garcia, etc) or getting ingrediants for your monsters.
Vote below and let’s see the consensus!
- Increase Catch Rate to 65% for All
- Make Monthly Ingrediant Event Daily
- Both
- Change Nothing

Ingredients are guaranteed from missions. We get a chance at extra ingredients in some of them, in battles along the way in the dungeon.
Crystalmouths appear frequently when you do that mission, their catch rate keeps them balanced so you don’t get loads. Cryptamids you get guaranteed when they appear but they’re rarer.
All rare ingredients come up frequently enough in online missions, with quite a few being available every 16 days in that rare ingredients mission or freely available at any time (the two mentioned above).
I’ve never had an issue farming them or stocking up. If someone spends when they start the game and get lots of monsters quickly then they’ll take time to get enough ingredients to evolve them all. They can do that regularly enough I think it’s balanced as it is.

So you are voting… No change?

aww you should’ve made it so we can see who voted
I would give another direction to the subject, I have any amount of ingredients, can they not be exchanged for something different? I just feel like they build up…
I’ve found Cryptamid and Omegamid in a row. I was trying to get Pyromid 
I voted before writing anything. Yes I voted “change nothing”.
By the way, why did you make it possible to vote for multiple options? The numbers are skewed by that now and we don’t know if people have voted stupidly like voting “change nothing” AND another option.
I want to know who voted for what
With time we end up with a massive excess of ingredients… even the rare ones.

Wait it’s possible to get omegamids from pyramid area?
@DMG_Anxag u also told me before u got Omegamid
I told you to take ss…did you take it ?
I was not quite sure but KD told me there are no Omegamids there
Not Omegamids, but we get lots from events.
Cryptamids can be obtained from the pyramid mission. The rate is low (~4%).
Crystalmouths can be obtained from the final mouth mission (the one where Goldmouth is guaranteed). You meet them every ~3 runs but they have ~30% chance to be caught (forgive me if these numbers aren’t accurate… haven’t farmed them much and not for a couple of years).
Crownwalkers and Grailings are from the mission that comes every 16 days.
All the mouths + Vorabook + Omegamid come in the rare ingredients mission every 16 days (pick one).
Moaliths come in the four guardians mission that comes every 16 days.
So the only ingredients not included in those standard missions that come frequently are: Ocarino and Alteramid. We can get 2 Ocarino every PvP season and otherwise in some other events. Alteramid come in a couple of events and sometimes SCB but they are rarely needed… only for shiny monsters.
P.S. You know all this already, but I’m collecting it together in one post for everyone to see.

Ahh that clears me doubts. Thanks Killerdog.
I’ll find it again, just wait and I’ll show you. I’m not playing Pyramids Valley for long times
Yes it takes time to build what I have. Ingredients SHOULD take a bit of time to accumulate at the beginning of the game and be a bit of a limiting factor. Otherwise what’s the point in even having them!?!
It’s clear you have personal bias here from your new account, not being able to evolve the monsters quickly enough. You complained similarly when you started getting lots of legnedaries in April/May: Super Powe Up Acheivements. Not to say that’s a bad thing, but it sounds like you’re trying to discredit what I’m saying because on my account I’ve got lots of ingredients. I’m just making points showing where we get all the ingredients and how we get a lot of them reguarly.
