Niko sulphite spawn rate seems really low

Did my depth 270 today (started at 220 or something like that).

I used a total of 6 cameria scarabs and ran them in the highest quant t16 I could roll. Farmed them all by myself, Cameria tends to gravitate towards Intervention anyways (or maybe I project too much personality into his pixels).

Together with high tier nico dailies and the occasional spawn in maps, I think sulphite is ok...ish. A bit on the lower end, but ok if you don't insist on constant delving. You really need your nico's in t15+ though.

270 is very low in the scheme of things... But its good your happy with it.

This league we have had huge power creep. Syndicate has been easy. Without delve there is pretty much no challenge.

Last league I started getting challenge in the 500's. This league with the power creep im expecting 600 plus for challenge.

I cannot see myself getting anywhere near 600 plus this league. at least not honestly.

its annoying to relay on currency to do content and we are not talking about deep delving its only depth 200 and we can't do it because its fking limited.

Bump. This has to be addressed. They are addressing the bricked menagerie issue in the upcoming patch but nothing on this issue which affects EVERYONE.

It's the arbitrary depth you need to reach to get a challenge.
That's all there is to it, I know I don't earn any bragging rights with it.

I do understand that its a challenge level...

Part of the GGG screw up on this is its a grinding challenge and not a challenge of player against content.

270 offers absolutely no challenge especially after the power creep this league.

So all the challenge is in the mindless grind unless Santa brings you an endless supply of scarabs.

What a dorked up league...

Grinding Gear Games makes grinding challenges?
That's a surprise. ;)

You can farm 2 cameria scarabs in about half an hour when all other safehouses are blocked. If all you care about is delving, you can set it up like this.

From what I can tell with the small sample size of 6 scarabs I used, you get an average of about 8-10k sulphite in a high-rolled vaaled sextanted t16 map.

Iirc, delve cost caps out at 1.1k sulphite per node somewhere deep down (I never went that far beyond 300 even in delve league), at 270 it is ~700 per node.

You can play around 20-25 delves per safehouse run in monsterlevel 83 content, which should be enough to get you to your challenging content in a couple days, right?

(I know it is annoying having to buy entrance tickets or farm for them, but that's the way this game has always been, welcome to the "free to play" world)

Now can we talk about standard? coz you know scabbies there don t exist and if they don t go core...

Don't you guys have ... eh ... "a master (nico) seeks help"?

(just sit it out and wait until betrayal is core, I guess. It will be core, confirmed by chris. But - of course - then betrayal will be as rare as delve is in betrayal, and sulphite scarabs will be weighed in exalted orbs)
