Shortly after patch the server went down and once it came back up I wasn't able to merge any curios
It was removed and any curios created with it have been nerfed - it was completely overpowered when you combined it with ice.

If that was the issue, can't icicles simply be tweaked so as not to work if one has any melded curios on his study?

Early in the thread someone showed a dragonfly which ran at 2k per hour.

That's just a dragonfly.

maybe only fate curiosities should be meldable into other curiosities, might give boletes a definitive use

I like the idea behind curio melding, but I don't see why an increase in LP per hour should be seen. Melding curios should be for the benefit of increasing the time it takes for them to pop. If someone wants to stack 20 dflies and have it take 3+ days to finish, then more power to them. A linear increase in experience, study duration, and LP gain seems like the best approach to me. Could curb it by making each meld cost 5-10 exp or something like that. Sure study desk are nice, but its still hard to get a days worth of curios on it. Melding curios that pop faster would be pretty nice imo.
I also feel that curio melding should have to take place at a specific location, or make use of some tool.

the way i saw the melded curios was each meld added lp and exp to the total while adding 25% to weight and time

lp/exp remained the same but lp/hour increased to stupid levels. so a curio with crap lp/hour but good lp/exp could become good-amazing instead of just plain bad/not used

This (melding simply adding up the EXP cost, LP gain and study times of the processed curios) could be a reasonable solution to RL issues like vacations - extending the RL time a desk can supply an offline character.
