I assume you’re referring to the khitan trader at Mek’s tower that trades for blood crystals. Yeah, there’s a supply crate there, however I wouldn’t worry so much. Now if those crates gave bricks too? Sure… however it’s just one thing people don’t have to farm if they don’t want to… I wouldn’t make a bigger deal out of it than it already is. The obelus were even easier to acquire and people have blown through tons of those. Now it’s one area and I’m sure most people don’t even think about it. I know I completely forgot about it until you mentioned it. Lucky for me, I’ve got tons of iron and silver bars already.

Also, fyi, I believe this only affects EL. Can’t remember if the merchant is on Siptah or not. :thinking:
