New Upgrade Card: excess elements dispersed instead of destroyed when grinding and pouch is full

Right now, if you grind an ore and the resulting elements are too numerous to fit in your available pouch space, the excess elements are destroyed, giving nothing.  It would be great to have a new upgrade card that would make it so that any such excess elements are dispersed (giving iMG) instead of destroyed.

  • +1! This is why I use multiple pouches. After a grinding session, I disperse the extra red (and sometimes blue) elements for the iMG (been doing this since way before iMG). But some still get destroyed if I'm doing a lot of grinding and don't pay attention.

  • The only thing I don't like about this, is that I can see people grinding (no pun intended) some serious iMG through this by equipping a full pouch and drinking Earthshakers and Flaming Humbabas. That could lead to some very easy, energy free, and unlimited iMG.

  • Can I ask for some advice?

    I always have a mountain of extra red. What is a good way to use up all that red? 

    Thanks!

  • Rather than dispersing for IMG, consider donating the red for favor, mood and img.   50 red = 1 favor.

  • Thanks WalruZ, I hadn't thought of that.

  • TRB4: I wouldn't worry about that, this is already quite possible--just takes a little more work in that you would have to manually disperse the elements.  But you could easily disperse your pouch(es) down to empty and then use Flaming Humbabas to grind them full again.  I don't think the iMG value from dispersing is high enough to make this worthwhile, or people would already do it.

    The only changes that come from my suggestion are:
    a) you wouldn't have to disperse before grinding (making room for the newly ground elements), and
    b) you would have to spend iMG to buy the card for the privilege of having the ability. :-)

  • +100000000 Such a great idea Don, i would certainly pay iMG to buy that upgrade card

  • Yesyesyesyes
    Also, considering what TRB4 said, how about a limit on the amount daily? Or that it only works for an elemental shake?

  • Like... I don't have space for an extra Element Bag so it would be nice to be able to do something about the destroyed reds.

    @ Miss Bobitt: The alchemy tongs rub red and green elements to make cooper ingots.

  • How have I been playing this game since November and not realized there was a 'Disperse' option?  :::facepalm:::

  • Really.  disperse gets you .img.  Donating the element gets you mood, img and favor.  Spring for some extra pouches and donate the extra element.

  • @WalruZ: Great advice.  But keep in mind, this is not a complaint about the way the game is; it's a request for a new feature that would be optional and would help those of us who are too forgetful to make sure we always have an extra element pouch on hand, too bad at math to realize that we're going to overfill an element pouch when grinding, too unaware to know how many elements we're going to get from this particular grind, or too lazy to take our excess elements to a shrine.  Or all of the above.

  • Love the idea, and love that it would require an upgrade card and not be automatic.  

    I only recently realized that disperse gives iMG and after filling up two element bags full, I'm dispersing from the third one all the time when my elements get to over 4,000.  Would be so much easier if they were to disperse than be destroyed those times when I forget to disperse before grinding. 

    Of course, they still need to fix the amount of red when you are grinding beryl - it's still WAY too much...
