@Jessenya, do you remember what you had to trade away for the doll? I know the old system is nerfed, but I'm curious if there are still things that improve the odds of getting a doll.
I've traded a Grand Ol' Grinder for a doll recently.
Otherwise, the Rube was so fixated on trying to acquire Hooch from me (like, at least three out of five trades every time) that I had to stop carrying mine around to stave off the trades for lame food or drinks. ...now he's after these Boards I have in my bags again...
No dolls for me. Never dolls for me. Hoes and irrigators and and animal sticks and fancy foods galore, but never, never, never anything as generous as a doll. And I *have* the silly Rube card. Ah, well, at least in the past year I've wangled two fuel cells out of him. Whoopie.
I have the Rube upgrade cards and he doesn't show up as often as I thought he would and the one good trade I got from him recently was for a Butterfly Milk Collector, the rest of the trades were utter dross.
I've gotten two dolls from him in the last weeks. Don't recall exactly what I traded for them, but I believe they were high-end tools. He also quite frequently offers me high-end tools, but I'm not taking the offers because I still need one other doll.
Every time I trade with the Rube I want to drop-kick him into the flames. He always wants my tools for something I could use that tool to make a whole stack of. "I'll trade you an Awesome Stew for your Awesome Pot!" "I'll trade you a Flaming Humbaba for your Cocktail Shaker!" Burn in Nakara, Rube.

Couldn't agree more! Burn in Naraka, Rube!
He always does that to me too! It's really annoying and if isn't that, is really shitty offers and I have those upgrade cards that should make him offer better stuff. But he really does not!
I'm getting tired of spending lots of essence for nothing cause he never ever comes to meet me when I'm out. :(
