Same — although the factor that contributed most to the expansion of my pile of ingredients was being unlucky enough with hatching! ![]()
YOU HAVE CAKE
Well, I still think the solution is not to gather ingredients for years, but just to fix the event. Just look at how many people are complaining about the same thing. When you run a game, and you see many players complaining about something, then it’s obvious that there might be something wrong that needs to be checked.
To gather ingredients for years is really a solution? What would you say to newcomers?
I didn’t do it meanly! Just to laugh at the moment, at the time, before I became more competitive, I had a time to gather and gather ingredients, I spent the remaining tickets on that, so I reached so many, one assuming that many legends came in a short time hahahaha
I know I know hahha. I said that like joking XD
Well right now we have Bond Quest to burn ALL our extra tickets so there is pretty much no way to grind Ingredients as before MAYBE just maybe you haven’t noticed it because you already have lots but i do understand why other are having trouble. I grinded ingredients with all my extra tickets all the time before bond quest and i have a decent amount of them but when i run out of them it will feel pretty bad to have to spend my tickets on ingredients instead of getting extra free gems from Bond Quest…
There is literally nobody forcing people to play MBQ. It’s somewhere people can collect gems with excess tickets. If people need ingredients they should definitely be playing the missions that give them those ingredients. Elemental Dungeon is the place to grind when it is open then maybe farm for Cryptamids / Crystalmouths if you’re desperate for them. If someone specifically needs, say, pyramids then they can also do the pyramid mission while the Elemental Dungeon is not open.
There’s nothing stopping people farming the ingredients they need IN ADVANCE of hatching the monsters that require them.
It’s pretty simple… do ingredients missions rather than MBQ until you have, say, 10+ of each standard ingredient. Once you’re at that point then you can use tickets on MBQ. If you ever drop below 10 of an ingredient then next time Elemental Dungeon comes around then farm it until you’ve got 10 again.
That’s the point I was trying to make. It’s like when people see a 2x gem deal which they ignore then next week there’s a festival and they’re complaining there isn’t a 2x gem deal at the same time… just stock up in advance!!
Just buy the gems that have the ingredients with them and this won’t be an issue. $$$$$$
Man, you’re missing the whole point. You keep saying “elemental dungeon”, but we are not talking about it at all. We are talking about the pyramids dungeon, which is waist of time, tickets, effort etc; and needs to be fixed.
Notice that you’re practically recognizing the event needs to be fixed, when talking about “playing elemental dungeon in advanced, instead of pyramids dungeon”; it’s because you know it’s a waist of time. But avoiding the problem and playing something else it’s not a solution 
And why on Earth are you defending something that makes you spend 700 tickets and yet you don’t get what you want?
Obviously the case here is that you don’t need it, and therefore you say it’s ok. Just as I said at the end of the main post 
It should be harder to you to get what you want in pyramids dungeon, in comparison to the elemental dungeon. “Harder” not incredibly annoying and nonsense
just kidding I have enough ingredients so idc either way lol. When I run out of pyromids I’ll probably necro this thread or something
Oh, but I have a ton of ingredients
. Back to what I said at the end of the main topic, I didn’t need to get new ones, so I never saw the problem till I happened to run out of yellow pyramids. I have a ton of others, but it seems like I used this one more than others till I had no more of it:man_shrugging:t2:.
So no, being lazy is not the problem
I think I have 1 pyromid left hopefully I hatch something new so I can use it
Seems like you’re missing my point completely instead. I’m recommending Elemental Dungeon over the pyramid mission only because ED is the more efficient place. Nowadays it makes most sense to try and only do ED so you have more tickets for MBQ. That’s not to say the pyramid mission is bad… it’s just not as efficient. If I was low on ingredients I would play all the ingredients missions to stock up, focusing on ED when I can (depending on how it lines up with other events that require tickets).
My point was that you should always farm ingredients in advance of when you need them. Have a small supply of each and you’ll never get stuck where you need one to evolve a monster and the mission isn’t giving it to you. Ultimately you do the same amount of farming but you avoid all frustration because you always have what you need at the right time.
In a lot of games we have limited storage space. In NM there is nothing to stop you from hoarding so everyone should do it!
While I agree with these points, I believe there still should be some way to trade pyramids to get what you want. Like a permanent “Finn Shop”. Or buy them with silver!
Yes, you’re completely right. But, imagine the case where you need to go to pyramids dungeon cause “casually” you ran out of some ingredient (you didn’t noticed it till you had none more left), and you don’t want to wait some days for ED comes. Imagine yourself waisting tickets, recharging them, waisting them again; that repeats 3 or 4 times and you haven’t got what you want yet; doesn’t it tells you that this event requires a little too much? Do you think it’s normal to waist 700 tickets on nothing? (This is the case where you have to go to this event, don’t tell me ED again, focus on this one).
I’m not saying it should be easy to get the right pyramid in this event, I’m saying it’s excessively hard and that it should require less effort and tickets. For instance, there are dungeons where you have 3 battles before going to the last one at the end of the dungeon, and these 3 battles also give you some chance to get what you want. Considering the amount of tickets it costs, I think this would be fair enough
Yes , let’s take another example of this week only . You have ran out of a pyramid but u don’t have anything to evolve so anyone I think will not be playing ED when whales treasure is going on. Just the next day after ED ends u got a legend which u need to evolve. You have to go and search in those dungeons and it really becomes frustrating some time.
Played 18 matches but no aeromid lol.
