Years ago when I was mining for redulite. I saw a trend.
I had a fixed % of redu from the amoun TT dropped. This % was very same as each time (If u used the right magic depth number ). Lately came the big change and put it on wave just like pyrite and all other "rares" and made it useless.
Regarding the hoarding;
There were guys who had 50-100k tt or with MU of redu back then. Could not remember if it was TT or MU. Anyway, they had big amount and the fixed % which i used to get were almost same too (3-6%). I have seen lots of changes to this.
I saw MA trying to figure out a way to test new methods. They put lyst With Waves and had redu drop at fixed time. Example was, lyst for 5 or 10 min then it was off and u could mine redu. They did then change to belk after shinook LA owners complained about lyst being mined at shinook.
As for today, i'm not sure if those crafters still hoard the same amount of redu as they used to have. It atleast isn't that rare anymore or even if its rare, MA removed the cap as far I can see and u can hit a 2k (as we saw recently) so u can get as much u get. Back then, u could not get any rare hit ( redu, zand, ruga) With a bigger amp than a lvl2-3. As the resource were capped in TT loot per hit.
I think the same goes for pyrite. Most who hoarded have sold their stack already and made their money as it can't get so much higher, perhaps a little as they hitted the peak of the price for now.
So its MA controlled and less hoarding controlled as MA don't like people to manipulate and control marked. This is from what I have experinced thru the years ...
ESI might be the same. I notice that ESI drops in a longer wave periode. Do the sandking and will see how the drop rate is.
