source requirment for opening rifts second wave

[bramsky 52]

Hi,

 

On Affliction rifts first wave has finished very long time ago, since first rift appeared i think (2016-06-13 12:15 AM). We decided to give it another try and finish second and third wave. We tried to sac 1kg of source salt but rift bar only went up to 5% (https://postimg.org/image/r51gymxsf/). I tried again to sac 0.12 of source and rift bar changed only by 1% (https://postimg.org/image/65xb11px1/), meaning lot more is needed then what it says in rift participation window or buy examining rift altar (https://postimg.cc/image/rhjb4qjml/). Can you pleas fix this so it actually needs 1kg to start second wave?

Not a Bug.

Could you be so kind and explain it?

20 rift hearts would need 20kg of source salt :  it's 1kg = 1 heart.

Dear Alectrys and Tich,

 

I provided screenshots where it says that you need 20 harts or 1kg (not 20kg) of source salt and in another one where it says you need 20 hearts or handfuls (1kg) (again not 20kg) of source salt. Maybe I missed something between the lines as english is not my native language. But I'm sure you are right and we need 20kg of source, it's just the message is not right. Anyway 20kg of source salt is more then 600 of source crystals and effort to gather them is not equal to killing 20 rift mobs and butchering them.

An alternative to finding the obscene amount of source would be going to Elevation and taking hearts from the rift there back to Affliction, it is currently right on the east edge of hota and has more than enough mobs to rob from.

That's good idea Sme, thanks. I would still like to see, if possible, fix on source requirment as it make no sence as it is now and messages related to rift don't say you need 20kg of it anywhere.
