Yes, I suppose this makes that a higher priority.

So sand castle has a 3-4+ day study time right? And still gives the same LP as in legacy when it was an 18 hour study time. I have to ask why you'd nerf what was already a pretty terrible curio in legacy :P

The intention was just to add some long-range curios, and this seemed like a good candidate. Will look at it.

Is the sand castle still 2x2? Because no one is going to use it as a long-range curio even if it was buffed if that's the case

Depends on how much I buff it, doesn't it?

It does, but be careful buffing it. Because you're basically buffing 4 curios at once.

Long range curios are mostly pointless as long as auto curios exist. I guess if you really can't be online they are something but really not competitive.

They are better than sitting around for days with an empty mentory because you're traveling and can't log in.
