I didn’t even know this loot orb spot existed in my 200+ hours of playing this game and It was very disappointing to find out it was only 1 copper ore. This location should definitely be a better golden loot orb with better loot for finding it because it’s very easy to miss since it’s so hidden.

The golden sparkling orbs are new with this patch, and you’re absolutely right.
The loot in this game is pretty bad, even from large chests. IMO these golden orbs should at least contain a good amount of radiant, essence, fallen embers, and probably some research papers.
I honestly don’t care if they drop gear because most gear is trash and you end up being forced to participate in the ember grind to go through the RNG slot machine to gather the right affixes to make a piece of loot not bad or crippling.
Itemization is in dire need of revision. It just feels tedious and grindy, not exciting.

Don’t use fallen embers for regular enchants. Use essence embers instead to bring an enchant from another item over to the one you want to use. Essence embers make all gear potentially valuable since anything you find could have an enchant you want for your build.

What if those orbs were always embers? Since players feel they’re lacking them, it would definitely encourage picking up orbs.

I mean I always pick up orbs since they can sometimes have embers. Never been impressed by the glowing orb drops though. I do think it always having an ember would make finding one exciting. Right now it’s a “so what?”. Yeah they generally always have an enchanted or plagued item, but that’s not all that exciting considering their rarity.
