Revival fruit no longer spawns

[Quizzical]

Upon starting the game, I got five revival fruits as drops pretty quickly early on. Since then, I haven't seen any. Not a single one in the last few hundred floors that I cleared.

Different dungeons have different drop tables, of course. In the original game, the beginner dungeon gives revival fruit at a much higher drop rate than any others. It's possible that Route Illusory Ruins simply doesn't have revival fruit.

So I went back to the first two (very short) dungeons, where I know I had previously seen revival fruit. I farmed them for hundreds of drops in each, and still not a single revival fruit. Something is broken here.

And so of course right after I make this thread, I get the first revival fruit drop that I've seen in weeks. And in Route Illusory Ruins, no less, which is the first one I've seen in probably over a thousand random spawn items. So apparently they do still spawn, but the rate is just extremely low--much lower than it was in the first several days of early access.

Usually the most useful resources spawn on the starting levels of most dungeons. YOu'll see a lot of revival fruit, healing items, materials, and the like on most levels up to like 8-10. then after that it's far more random what you'll start seeing. It was like this in the first game too. A good strategy to get more sustain on your side before a long run is to run through floors 1-5ish, collect as many revival fruit, healing items and materials as you can and then stock them up in bags before you commit to a longer run.

I beat Voltaire in a single go by repeating the first few floors and then doing the whole dungeon when I had a good number of healing items and utility staves (Strengthening, Sleep, Swift Books). Once you get a grasp of some of those items, you can breeze through a good number of floors without even needing to worry about revival fruit in your inventory. I can get pretty far without one.
