    ==========================
    With consideration to the player dungeon subsystem, I think these requests could be handled with low impact to the dev staff, and greatest pay-off to the player experience.

    • Change the selection of pieces in the builder from current left/right scroll to drop-down.
    • Allow transactions of more than a single unit when purchasing upgrades.
    • Ensure that all dungeon mobs drop essence and make sure loot is rewarding enough to merit revisits.

    simgle placement of creatures not just mobs would be great, and even having customisable shout text or even custom creature pathing would also be cool.

    Single creature spawners exists on the test server and from what I've seen it works fine. It's been there since 2019, but was never moved to the live server because Chris keeps forgetting to add it to the craft station or coto store.

    Agree with the interface changes for selecting components and upgrades. The reason loot is reduced by 2 tier levels is due to players potentially exploiting the system. I really hate the current penalty as it de-incentives players from running other players dungeons. Their are better ways to handle that though. 1) The -2 tier loot should kick in after the 1st run by the player, so any re-spawn with a 24 hour period has the reduced loot. This allows visitors to get the full loot of a player dungeon once per day. If a player leaves the dungeon before completing the dungeon and re-enters they automatically suffer the -2 tier loot penalty. This is to reduce the amount of tracking that has to be done. 2) If any creature is unable to path to the player target at any time that creatures loot gets a -4 tier penalty to prevent players from purposefully setting up decor that blocks creatures. If you want the loot, you have to set up the room to allow easy pathing.

    Player Dungeons should also have a difficulty rating based on the lowest level tier totem with a + if the dungeon has higher tier totems.

    It'd also be great if we could add a name for our player dungeons at the entrance.
