| Summary | 0018586: Time Travel Item Spawning way too much | ||||
| Description | I just had a run where the Time Travel item that lets you re-spawn a floor dropped 3 times, so I got three extra levels to get equipment, levels, etc. This is very much a run-defining item, it extends playtime, etc. It shouldn't be this common. It definitely shouldn't spawn more than once in a run and probably should only spawn in very few runs. I recommend dropping it's drop rate dramatically and then setting it so if it's spawned once, it can't spawn again in the same run. | ||||

While it's definitely possible to remove the ability for the item to spawn more than once, it sounds like you had a really lucky chain of events. I can't speak for everyone here but I don't think I've ever actually seen the item, heck I've rarely seen most of the teleport items. Regardless I'll look into it. Just for clarity's sake, did you have the perk for finding more rare loot? |

I did have the perk for finding more rare loot, as well as the perk that lets loot appear a floor early. As far as teleport items, in that run, I found the Time Travel one 3 times, the skip a floor twice and the teleport to the boss 3 times all in that run. Maybe it was just a fluke but I assumed it was the result of the recent tweaks to item drop variety. |

May have to look into the item pools then, because while it would be more possible to see the teleport items with better loot, you also should have come across the tactical missiles, nanites etc more often still. |
