How fast do you get enchant containers?

[keith.lamothe]

A hopefully-simple question:

In 10 minutes of trying to get enchant containers, how many do you get?

[Terraziel]

Of trying to?

Give me 10 minutes......

Edit: 63

[keith.lamothe]

Don't strain yourself for an olympic record, I'm looking for a baseline-to-expect here, but thanks

[keith.lamothe]

Sixty-three?  Good grief.

Well, glad I asked.

That was in a pyramid, wasn't it.

[Terraziel]

For the record, not the Olympic one, that is only about 2.5 maze rooms worth, and whilst that includes the time getting from my settlement to a pyramid, i am on tier 4 so the maze rooms were filled with fire bats and clockwork probes, so it could probably be higher if there weren't so many enemies for me to worry about.

edit: where else was i going to go whilst "trying" to get enchant containers. if you take out pyramids i doubt i'd even get a quarter of that.

I may need to down the amount of rewards in maze rooms so that it's not such an over-easy way to grind these.  Outside of maze rooms, what's the number for enchants?

[Minotaar]

I tried raiding shacks in junkyards (easily accessible stashes), went through a 5-chunk region in 10min. Found 3 containers. And probably like 15 gravestones (wasn't counting really), so count those in too. 
Oh yeah, 122 Upgrade stones as well. You're welcome.

This is with gravestones replacing what would be enchant containers in stash rooms still, right?

[x4000]

Right.

Turns out even moderate inner light enchants need a proper burial. Otherwise they might turn into vengeful ghosts. And there would be dozens of them.

[Terraziel]

It's probably strange for me to say this as the one who did the test, but this is probably still dubious.

Because I farmed evil rooms in the lava flats.

Edit: I do feel like i should note however, that the test was delayed whilst i tried to remember where the hell you even find enchant containers.

[c4sc4]

Ok, so after farming a pyramid for 10 minutes I found 48 enchant containers and it took me from 58.2% to 78.8%.

After farming grasslands for 10 minutes I found 20 enchant containers which took me from 78.8% to 88.5%. Also, most of those came from a windmill.

[x4000]

So, what do we think about maze rooms, then?  Too many enchant containers such that it is broken?  Or appropriate reward for a pain in the rear?

[Terraziel]

To be honest, I think the way the current enchant system works makes it hard to say, to contrast with c4sc4 my run in the pyramid gained me 2 enchants, that's obviously pretty damn quick, but for c4sc4 one enchant would involve grinding maze rooms for 50 minutes straight.
