>>As neat as these cocoons are, they're just as stupidly annoying to open up as the clumps of sand/dirt/jars/etc you find when digging. Please, for the love of everything else that is tedious in the game, remove the whole aspect of cutting your hand(s) when opening these things up.
The carapaces are the exact same thing from digging. But fair enough. The carapaces associated with this event will no longer injure. Those that do injure, the rate has been reduced significantly.
>>I know, it's the last day to find these cocoons in treasure boxes and I probably won't have to deal with them much longer, but out of the 23 cocoons that I've opened, I've cut my hand 3 times.
Just so you know, 3 injures was SO below the average too.
>>I've gone through just over 200 boxes on various characters and found 23 cocoons. That's roughly 1 cocoon every 8 boxes. So that's probably about par for everyone else....or am I just unlucky? Feels low, but then again I'm not out there just hammering the pavement trying to farm boxes and cocoons. Just doing normal hunting as I normally do.
Those numbers are accurate. Cocoons are loaded into a treasure chest at a rate of about 12%. At the time of this post, 13310 cocoons have been generated. The rate for orbs is already pretty high.
>>On a side note, I found nothing good out of them:
With the injure update, I also upped the odds of gems and dropped the odds of junk (horseshoes, etc).
>>Mailer that just went out says throughout the month. They sticking around a bit longer?
Yeah, we'll keep cocoons going for the month.
One other thing, orbs aren't the only thing that can be found. There are some ultra rare finds.
