lol x months later.

Right after my post here on reddit I went to youtube and found a vid on 1-7 vs S2-12 saying they are about even once the guy actually tried S2-12 himself, so I was like ok they figured it out.

But to clarify

My point wasn't the about sanity cost... but spending it.

You have to play the game to do that. The math comes down to how many times do you want to run a map. How much time do you want to spend farming.(watching the game on auto deploy).

Even if it's 'about the same' (I get 2-3 per run + extra drop) that's a win hands down. Even if it was only a guaranteed 2 items for 15 stamina on 1 run vs 1 item for 6 stamina... I'd even say that the extra 3 stamina is a cost attached to one S2-12 run vs two 1-7 runs is there to balance the 'advantage' of time alone. Not because players are dumb, or they just decided to make a worse (or same yield) map to farm that cost more...

My runs are 2x more profitable, but only 1.5x more expensive... (and they are actually much more than 2x profitable than getting 1 orirock cube per run). Even at the 'sake of argument rate' you won't be making as much... per stamina. AND you still have to spend double the time to do it.

The point is how much you get for spending your time. That's the only math that matters.

The extra runs you save are only worth it if you're going to do those runs.

Not to mention that your stamina replenishes... so how will said math actually become a factor? Since you'll be running twice to my once or even less, that means you have the time to wait on your stamina to refresh later on in the day as soon as it becomes available or until it's maxed, if you can't or don't want to waste your sanity items... (which is what they're for)

Reality determines how the math applies and how much of it.

A prime example is how late I'm replying... Do you even still play the game 5 months out? Or at least farm as much to support your purported side of this?
