Make Clay Idol at least decent again

So after reading this:

This is completely opposite of other adjustments made to curios this world. Would recommend double or triple the LP as the time to study was tripled: at least 2500 LP base for a day, but more like 3.5-4x, or about 3000 would make it nice.

Pretty sure it was always this shit.

I agree though, for including clay and with a weight that high, it's a bit mediocre.

Please. It is such a shitty curio even at q50
W3 to W6 - Blockland. Special mentions: New Avalon, Tarn of Hotdog, Red October.
W7 - Elvenia, til we all got lazy.
W8 - Cult of R'lyeh, til the deeps called us back.
W9 - Tartarus, til death/wizards came for the land itself.
W10 - ???, ruined and forgotten.

It used to be 750 base LP @ 7-8 hr study time. Now it's same base, but at 22-23 hours (real time). If you had access to regular high quality materials, they weren't too bad if you were being lazy, for feeding to alts, or otherwise out of the better curios.

From the way jorb balances curios, I think he thinks people value low xp cost curios much more highly than they actually do. Most people don't even look at xp cost but a lot of the worst curios have really nice lp per xp.

I've got 40k XP stored up because I don't chain smoke mirkwoods... I'd be fine if the XP cost were quadrupled along with the LP.

Either you don't study curios or you just spend all your time doing quests, there's no normal gameplay way to get 40k XP without botting or using all realm auth on yourself or some shit

I spend anywhere from half an hour to 2 hours per day doing quests, have 33k XP stored.
