Remove Flash of Inspiration mechanic or increase the drop rate

A lot of my friends stop playing this game because we would hunt a monster 20 times in a row and the damn flash of inspiration won't pop up. It's a stupid mechanic that's completely random. You should get the tools/ traps after you hunt it or the prompts pop up every hunt until you get it. I'm about to call it quits too, been trying to get this damn hook trap on the deathstalker and nothing after 30 hunts.

Honestly they should just make it so you spend the orbs on it considering you do that to upgrade them anyway. Just give us a message after fighting a certain monster saying "Hey you have a fusion karakuri to unlock if you spend some orbs."

Facts, would prefer that over what we have in game now.

Playing solo seems to have them appear almost every time.

It's NOT rng, it should pop the moment your friend meets criteria; it would only be RNG if more than one person needs the inspiration.

I made some experiments with a friend today. First do some trouble shooting:

1) Check that your friend hasthe base karakuri installed and keeps a fully stock thread meter;
2) in the karakuri level up screen, ensure you have upgrades that lead all the way to the monster face of the fusion karakuri, so the fusion karakuri is highlighted.

IF the above did not work, the simple fix is: SIMPLY DISBAND THE SERVER and restart, have the friend farming host the server. This will solve the issue 9/10 times.

There's another thing : the inspiration pop when the situation requires it. Typically you trap the Wolf when he start jumping everywhere, i had this karakuri very late because when you play clawblade, you absolutely want to be in the air the whole time but this is really not random
