Forgotten gem mines- the golden crypt
Forgotten gem mines: i like how roomy it is. I like the maps. Loot drops are lacking i feel. Not sure what the idea is here. Trash drops from monsters. Then a boss named Gem Horder, but he didnt drop a gem/gems... just fell and died. And he’s a beast though! Fights like someone is trying to steal his gems! Lol. But,... none. The two chests at the end, 2 skulls out of 1. 1 skull out of the other. I mean, ill grind the crap out of this mine, its just missing something.

The golden crypt: holy crap!! I havent had so much, just, ....fun playing in a long time. I totally forgot why i was in there, and just tried getting all those little sun spots! Great job here! I love it! If i need gold, thats the place! Its addicting lol. Only thing is, theres no stairs out. Gotta run all the way to the start, lol.

One last thing. We need gold, you did beautifly there. We need skulls, needs some help i guess. We also need armor. We can get blue set items in minehead a little at a time, but the good stuff, nowhere. I suggested maybe they could be a reward from a buffed up bounty board, or, a vendor... make them expensive so he have to grind the golden crypt maybe?

Oh, can you make these to reset after player leaves? Gotta reroll in lan to grind.

You rock Corley!!

Edit: did runs.

I simply chose crieg the bandit boss, warped to temple fought to end, and then cleared forgoten gem mine. I did these 3 then rerolled game in lan. Id say 8 or ten runs. Not a ton, but life distracts.

Anyway i did get uniques from all 3 places. Crieg was a variaty of wespons and armor(uniques).
Necro run from waypoint not a ton, but some uniques of variaty.
Gem mine seemed kinda based on my class which is a modded char using outlander base. If that makes sense. I got like 4-5 of the same unique bow. Also a few armor uniques.

I did get 2 unique set items. One the level 22 one. Cant remember the set name.

No blue sets have dropped at all. Id rather have unque sets anyway.

Wandered about boon scrolls. Havent got a single one at all.

Exited to see your next update!😀

Ps..... on the last run i just did in the gem mine, i got 2 skulls from one, and the other gave me a blood gem and a green staff.

As i run the forgotten gem mine, i think maybe a mini boss that has a small chance to drop vendor boon scrolls?

Awesome. Also the chests at the end, my char was lvl 100 but the skulls i kept getting were the jendanny one, a lot, and others around that lvl.

@Xercules - I am not sure why that is happening, I mean I opened up the entire range of skulls. I will do some additional testing and feedback. Also confirming that I am aiming to get your previous request for mini boss and scroll drops in for this weekends update.

You are so awesome Corley! Your dedication amazes me. I am honored to help and playtest!

All i could think is that the pool from which the skulls to drop are chosen from is very large. Chance to drop from a program standpoint is minimal because of that? Im not a modder but maybe that. Of course i have a ton of jendan(?) skulls, and the majority of my skull drops are lvl 55-65ish. Limony skulls do drop but not often. The main skull i seek is the skull of umbreum(?). 35% minion damage. Not a single one has dropped, however its lowwer level counterpar minion damage 25% has dropped 3 times. Think its in the 60’s lvl range but not sure.

Thank you also for the coming additions i requested. The miniboss will add flavor to the mine! And the scrolls are just awesome! I have 5 days of work now, 12 hour shifts so i wont be able to really test anything till next days off.

@Xercules I have found the issue and this weekends update will fix it.

Also after some additional testing I am choosing to make the Gem Hoarder boss have a 33% to to drop the Boon scrolls. i choose this boss because he is at the end of the dungeon already and i want people to complete the dungeon before they get the reward.

Awesome!! Totally agree!! That boss is awesome. And i felt let down cause hes so tuff, but never got a reward. (Well, other than access to the chests.) i just always felt it need to drop something😀Great idea!

After you do that, i would consider the forgotten gem mine finished. Unless you decide to dress it up a bit with armor racks, trash chests and/or other cosmetics.

I am fairly happy with the way it is for now, I think my focus will shift now to new content/areas or improving act5.

I think i need to go back and re read Steffs idea about the ember temples and bosses now and the act 5 feedback discussion.

thanks again for your help and ideas!
