Bug with dust

I have been collecting dust for my shipment over the past few days I had about 19million dust collected. I was transferring some gold to the town after completing like a map or two and I saw I only had 1million. I used a little bit of dust on recombinators but not 18million, myabe I used like 100k. I don't exactly know what happened. Anyone had the same issue?

No. I don't think there is a way to spend that on combinators without noticing. The only way would be to accidently send it all on a shipment.

Even if I send accidently on a shipment I should have around 50-100k or so instead of 1million after 2 maps as I am dusting 5-20k ones. I don't know what happened or what i did lol.

Might not of sent all? might of sent 18 million of 19 million? I don't know, that's the only thing I could think of that could use that much. Are you sending close to max shipments of Blue Zanthimum? That is the one above it.

Any chance you misread the number and it was 1,900,000? The disenchanting value is easy to read, but the number in the shipping values doesn't have commas, so it's a bit more tricky. 19 million seems like a fair bit in a few days with 5-20k items. I'm running mid level disenchanters, it takes them about 2 hours to clear the window. If the window is about 300k dust, that would take 63 refreshes and about 5 days straight. Maybe you are going faster than this because you are running higher level enchanter? I think you will know if you did 63 refills of the window or 6, it should be pretty easy to tell if that is possible or not.

It could be a bug, I haven't come across that but if you don't think its either of the above, I cant think of too many ways it could be used like that. The combinators only take about 10,000 dust don't they, unless it goes higher for some reason? I doubt you have combinated 2000 items and not noticed it being used, which is why I think it is more likely the shipping, which could of been sent in one shipment.

Yes it can go much higher. I have had cases of >200k dust use. IME you have to be very careful always reading how much dust it costs. Otherwise you can lose lots dust fast. See example:
I dont know the rules but if someone manages to superscale this further (like this is superscaled from the normal cost) then it may be possible to lose millions fast I guess.
(For all I know this could be a bug but it seems to be possible to reproduce with other items and same mod level. So apparently its kind of deterministic.)

Edit: Its probably mod level not mod tier so I changed it from 'mod tier' -> 'mod level'.

Right. Wonder what causes it to go that high. I've used other high bases and it didn't do that. Maybe it's the average of all the mods or something.
