I don't consider 7m/h to be low.
I agree with this. That's by no means low.
but then you wouldn't get the shards thats what this topic is pointed on
The only reason the price of elite caskets inflated is because of the shards, if you're gonna hand out more shards there will be less demand for caskets. If you want to get a dye without trading open your caskets. If you think it's too much work buy them.
This isn't wether the moneymaking doing caskets is amazing or not, it's about the amount of dye you get per clue and if it's reasonable.
Caskets sky-rocketed in price because of rich stakers wanting comestics first and fast, no average player is going to buy any caskets for 6m each.
Average person is going to buy dyes for either 250k each or do elites themselves, I haven't even put an offer for dyes in GE because even now 40 days after the update I'm guessing the market for them is not really in my best intrest.
You really don't need to argue about the amazing moneymaking method held on the shoulders of ks amk stakers, it just comes down to wether you think that doing 381 clues for 500 dye shards is okay.
If I had to make an prediction if the caskets are going to drop in the future with these drop rates, I would say yes all things considered. But given how they even inflated to 6-8m which is just a stupid price to pay for any casket, who the fuck knows.
Eventually there will be less demand for caskets, remember the dyed items are untradeable. You can't really clinge onto this 6-8m per casket number and hope it never drops, it has already dropped ~2m as far as I know.
Couple things to mention, far as I know corne actually has an dyed item that he has worked for, so basing your arguments over what you think ironmen will say is completely pointless.
You can get around 200-300m in 10 hours selling caskets, nobody's saying you can't. The point is you couldnt buy 200-300m worth of dyes (which is roughly 500 dyes) in 10x that time. And I don't see how the dye-market will get any better, if stakers actually grow some brains and realize they lose about 60% of caskets initial 6m price per pop they should drop in price eventually. Furthermore that stakers will eventually obtain the dyed items and there goes alot of your market for caskets.
All in all, the fact that Thomy is updating the clue droptable is really nice. I really hope we get another update to it's droptable in the future, when people have forgotten about dyes and then they will sell much easier.
I'm not really that adamant about changing of the dye rates, it's been 40 days and I've only seen 3 of the new items. Considering how rare they've been to see I've actually cared less and less about them, not more.
Also I'm kinda petty that It takes so long to get the sick max cape
