weird campaign explores ??

so i was doing the goldsea campaign and i'm on the gecko one, but literally, no joke. EVERY TIME i get the gecko encounter, it says, "oh noes the geckos SAW you" DUDE THEY'RE IN THE NEST WHAT 😭

and then i got two ww encounters in like, 20 encounters. while i got the gecko one at least like 7 times and i haven't caught a single one.

is it me having insane bad/good luck at the same time

Yes, it's just bad luck. I finished this quest a couple of days ago and had like, 20 failed gecko encounters, or even more, in a row.

The gecko quest is kinda notoriously grindy that way, not sure why or if it's even intended? There's another one that gets pretty old in the icerun campaign, I think it's the one collecting bird eggs, but I also vaguely remember hearing that one might have gotten a tweak to be easier? There might be one of these campaign time-extenders in every area, I don't remember after this long since I've done 'em, hahaha.

Good luck, you aren't losing out to a nutty-bad rng streak, those particular quests are just Like This.

The geckos kept seeing and escaping my trap too, but eventually I got it!!! It seems to have a high fail rate but just keep putting out those traps and you'll catch em eventually :)

I will say I got really excited thinking I'd get the gecko apparel item after finishing that quest but nope, still gotta buy it from Mole Market or Flea Market lol

edit: I'm on the next quest "How The Mite-y Have Fallen" and this one take a while also to find the nest just a head's up lol
