well no fix in sight, this is called Normal. so i guess that dug mats are broke because choice is so freely diggable, but that's normal too.
i'll not bother to report anything else, clearly broken is "normal".
(thank you CSR for putting this up the line to the dev and then letting me know their response.)
talk.
ps. choice loot is clearly the rarest in game now.
What the heck are you talking about? Yes, the choice MOBs are rare, but they are also anomalous since they break the usual pattern and not all mobs have them. That isn't *broken*, that is how it is.
Choice diggable mats were part of the first release, there is no way they are "broken".
As for choice mobs with "guards", all you have to do is go to Loria Ponds to dig and watch the gruesome kiros precede and follow the Death Kiro. They aren't guards in the same way that the guards of the king bosses are, but they are clearly associated with the mini-boss.
