So I've heard that the new super rare encounter with the Mysterious Stranger doesn't automatically drop the Solaris app and has a chance to drop Dry Bones... This is simply unacceptable when Dry Bones are so common and easy to get, especially when the encounter itself has such a low drop rate. Please remove Dry Bones as a reward for the encounter so only the app reward is given. Edit: According to Xylax's tumblr, the encounter also has the chance to drop a rare breeding item. So I'm editing this suggestion to remove the increased drop rate to just removing the db reward. Edit 2: So the encounter, according to the wiki, gives up to 50DB, still not enough if you ask me but whatever. It also drops UAV and Human Liver. So there are several commonish rewards and 2 rare ones on a super rare encounter. At the moment, I've gone through maybe 11 energy bars and haven't encountered the mysterious stranger. The droprate seems to be as low as the Interstellar droprate and it needs to be increased if the chance of getting a common prize is higher than getting the app or the rare breeding item. Edit 3: My hot take on this: Remove Human Liver as a reward. Demand for it is basically non-existent. It sells for 400 SB currently if you even manage to sell it. And with three pages worth of it for sale, I don't view that as worthwhile. Remove the Broken Drone as a reward. They give what? 20 XP and sell for like 150 SB? For a rare encounter, it's kinda weirdly placed. Up the Dry Bones encounter to at least 100. It's a rare encounter. At least if you don't get the app or breeding item, you get *something* for finding it. 100 Dry Bones is half a Maneater stud fee, x2 Tracking Herds, x20 trains for your Adols in Vulture Chase, 1/3 of a GoP, and 1/6 of a Buff Balls. Currently, the rewards basically give you a chance of being given junk. Not exactly making me excited to see what I get if I find the encounter. -:[ʙᴇɴɴᴇᴛᴛ]:- (#112370) Edit 4: Even though it's on the wiki, here's the rewards the encounter gives. +20 Dry Bones +UAV Search and Rescue +40 Dry Bones +50 Dry Bones +Human Liver +Solaris (app) +Secret breeding item Open to other people's suggestions, comment why you don't support. Though I don't see why anyone wouldn't support this. |

Not your fault by any means. I'm not sure how often the log updates, pretty sure within an hour, though? Pretty sure it should log their tree drop, if not the actual encounter; but don't quote me. They can search for specific keywords, too, so maybe searching for 'Cotton' might worK? 0 players like this post! Like? |

tbh I can see both povs from what I've read. I really think there is no compromise between the arguments here except the agreement on the really crappy items that the MS drops if you happen to find him. My personal outlook is the DB's should be at least pushed up to like 200 since the encounter is so rare. The uvas, drones, and liver should be removed, but everything else should stay. I do agree that it is beyond frustrating that the chance to even run into the MS while exploring is so slim! I've gone through 15+energy bars and haven't found him (I did get a golden water bg lol ) so maybe instead of decreasing the rarity of the encounter altogether, maybe they can just decrease the rarity during the day? Since the base is solar-themed it would make sense that it would be easier to find when the "sun" is out in Lioden?? So, it wouldn't become too common like interstellar or stay too rare like it is now?? Idk just a suggestion, hopefully, I don't ruffle anyone's feathers! If I do sorry!! 0 players like this post!

It's my opinion that a 'super rare encounter' should give you way more than 20-50 DB, if it gives you that at all - which I don't think it should, since DB encounters are so common that you can easily get more than that in a day without even trying. The items should at least be worth getting excited over, especially since there's no guarantee you'll even encounter the Mysterious Stranger at all before the event is over. 0 players like this post!
