Also here’s a fun flash from the past in which @Sirrian discusses many things (which I assume he regretted later) including the dismal state of Diamond Chest contents at the time: > [@Stream Quest (Developer Stream Schedule)](https://community.puzzlequest3.com/t/stream-quest-developer-stream-schedule/883/21): > > Diamond chest rewards not worth the wait? > > - “The wait is appropriate but the rewards are not. I’d like you to feel like it was worth the 24 hours.” > - “I believe that is getting some tweaks at the moment to come in 0.36. We did some tweaks for 0.35 but I don’t think it was enough.” > - “It’s tabled for discussion with our economy guys.” 8 months later, Diamond Chests are literally worse by all measures. Gear/Spells are even harder to farm, the balance around rarity of items based on level of chest for better targeting are still a problem (which again would not be a problem if they put in an exchange mechanism), we now have even more Ore and Food filling out the loot slots, and Relics of any consequence are no where to be seen despite repeated mentions of improvement there.
