ive been to all of the desert realms to find this fibre and ran all over each map and i cant find the bloomin thing, is there a certain area that the termite mound will spawn or am i doomed to wandering the desert forever lol

It's RNG. I've been to realms with a few of them and more without any. I think the non-ascended realms on Hard/Extreme might be your best bet.

Herbarium Desert usually (my experience)

I found 3 in an Ascended Provisioner Desert as well, played on harder (lvl 160).

For several days (since the last update?), I noticed that I could no longer find any Britomart.

After extensive testing with all biomes and all types of maps, the results are as follows:

All generated worlds are blocked at level 100 tier 2 biomes
The mobs have the right level of difficulty (160 or 220)

It took me several tries to be sure. But in all the worlds generated at hard and extreme, the resources remain that of the medium level.
(little wood and tier 5 fiber, almost no rare plants, low level chest contents)

Of course the problem... is that there is no longer any point in continuing to load new worlds while being high level.
No more access to certain resources like Britomart.

They did mention a rollback, but I'll pop in and see what I see.

#

Started off at ascended hunt, realm was properly 220.

#

Chest contents have always been low level, though. I've never noticed them giving more than slight potions and random cards. Very rare for anything more than that, even with the card for more/rare loot.

#

Same with POI loot regarding hides and food; it's always been T1 junk at all difficulties and realm levels.

#

I am noticing a significant decrease in materials harvested from certain creatures in the desert, giving me only 1-2 of each resource with OB active.

#

Do you have the Charm of Bounty on? That helps with flora harvested goodies.

amber mesa
#

Not with creature harvesting. It says it's only for plants

#

But yes, I do

#

I'm seeing 1-2 T5 trees per patch.

#

The rest are 3/4

#

Same with fibres

It only says you shatter those with 1 hit. You "as well as providing greater resource and Essence yield when harvesting." Doesn't leave it only to those things.

#

I've seen the increase in fibre and stick yield, too

#

And pretty sure creature

#

I didn't see a big difference in resources in Hunt Ascended Extreme. The POI stuff was mostly meat and hides, but those have always been T1

#

Have you tested that?

lost whale
#

Play since more than 600 hours, and i'm sure of that

amber mesa
#

I'm sure of the opposite. Testing OB was one of the first things I did. 554 hours. 🙂

#

With sticks you get an average of 3, but almost never more than 3. With OB you get 4, sometimes 5.

#

Testing OB was one of the first things I did in the game.

#

The only part it says explicitly for trees/minerals is that it shatters them in 1 hit. The rest is "gather resources."

#

I'm going to go re-test in the forest. I'll give you my results after a bit.

#

Sorry, "know" isn't enough for me. Testing = necessary

#

Because I know differently. So I need to re-test to see if I'm mistaken.

#

For harvest more drop on Creatures, we can double the drops but I'll let you test it since you obviously know

amber mesa
#

Something has definitely changed since I first tested it. I used to get 9 or so crude from Oberon. Now it's no higher than 7.

#

This is stuff that I use spreadsheets for. It was giving me higher numbers months ago, but that might be a balancing issue that they changed since.

#

28 of each and it actually lowered the average by half a point.

#

And that's why records and testing are important...apparently I WAS mis-remembering. I found a conversation from half a month ago where I said I hadn't noticed a difference between using on sickle and not.

I admit to being wrong.

gentle oak
#

indeed, I make it clear: the problem is with the vegetation, the chests... the ore is not certain, it is difficult to really see the difference.

No problem with mob difficulty.

Minor maps are not in question, test on reset worlds. Test if necessary to apply a purifiction, leave the world and reload a new one (just in case)

I saw the problem especially with desert: In a lvl 220 world, I noticed that there were onions on almost all the poi for example, the quantity of oats also in lvl220 I picked up quite a few. And nothing since (just the few that we find at lvl 100)

He also had the famous Britomart.

In the forest biome, well since this problem, I hardly find any hemp.

In the swamps, I noticed that he had a lot more tomatoes at lvl220... there I almost have more, regardless of levels 100-160-220

amber mesa
#

Could just be bad luck. I haven't noticed a change.

amber mesa
#

Not a major difference, at least. I have noticed more low-tier resources at POIs, but again, bad luck. It's never been consistent for me. Sometimes I get good hauls, more often not.

gentle oak
#

sorry but it has nothing to do with chance or lack of luck.

After more than 400 hours testing the games I have some basis for comparing the worlds generated.

So I have a question (a request) to anyone who finds Britomart.
Take a bug screenshoot (F2)

And check the biome information: I paste an example of what I want to check circled in red in the image.

I specify: I must have others F2 screens, test in extreme (220), the information on the biomes is exactly the same (in lvl 100 too)

Briomats spawns only in tier realm cards, they don't spawn in Ascended realms, regardless of difficulty.
You can usually find them, 1-2 spawns per realm, from Desert Herbarium and below.
You can find them on extreme as well in these realms.
I very reliably find them in Astrolabe deserts, and have found up to 4x Britomat spawns in a realm before.

#

The game, from my understanding, classifies the realms based on the essence tier findable. So looking in realms that drop T2 and T3 essence will not spawn britomats, you need T1 realms and dust.

Saw two of these today in desert astrolabe extreme
