Shaped maps dont give more sulphite?

122 Sulphite for a T16:


I assume that this is because it is shaped. Another ~20 runs or so proved the same. 120-140ish sulphite for a T16 map with high IIQ and lots of mods and sextants and etc. The only difference being that this is a shaped map.

Is this a bug? It can take up to 21x T16 maps to fill 2500 sulphite this way (worst case).

Sad to know.
I'm in T2 maps at the moment and I'm getting ~40 which is peanuts even for that level of Delves (70-80).

It's the kind of starvation Snorkle talks about in his Feedback Forum thread.

And it feels alien to the game in a way Abysses or Alva never did.

And how much sulphite does a natural T16 map give?

I forgot how much a natural T16 gives but a natural T15 gives about 220-254 if I remember correctly. However, it is not sustainable to run those high tier maps. What is more important is how much drops on T10-13 maps (which is not much). And there is the RNG that determines whether you get 1, 2 or 3 deposits in a map. So a T10 map can give more sulphite than a natural T16 map... Which imo is stupid.

Anyway, I believe that this is a bug as it makes no sense to penalize shaped maps.
