Suggestion Blaze Shrines

[Eyvah]

If a little more loot blaze shrines had would be really cool, I can say it is one of the only ways to get blaze powders and it is really hard to get, killing a normal blaze rather than a shrine gets you more blaze rods most of the time. Blaze shrines need a buff

Have you tried Infested Tiles?

Have you tried Infested Tiles?

I did. But still blaze shrines are kinda useless.

 

[Asynchronized]

I think it is fine the way it is, if you want more mob drops go with more people. With one person you get around 1 stack after doing all blaze shrines, with 6 you get around 8 stacks of blaze rods

If you just want blaze rods or gunpowder, blaze and ghast shrines are the most efficient way of farming those materials. However, infested tiles are the optimal way to grind if you are after a mix of all pot/combat mats. The numbers are in a good spot to achieve this balance, especially considering how easy it is to kill blazes.

Blazes in the dreadfort offer even more rods per kill but are less frequent/dense and slightly harder to kill. I have not looked at the data for these recently but in theory, they should be another good option for blaze rods.

I normally use infested for grinding and everything but the other day I tried using shrines and I felt like blaze shrines need a little buff because they are kind of useless.

each run if you kill all blazes in the dreadfort I believe is 2 stacks, with double drops it is anywhere from 3 to 4 stacks of rods

I have always seen it more as; if you are grinding solo you should do infested, but if you are grinding with 2 or more people you should do shrines.

I'm mixed on this as I've seen 10 man groups run infested tiles together and haul insane amount.
