Just spent a buff session there and looted 6 sets of 7 yellows (mostly base but one 12/17) and one set of 9 yellows. I also looted a set of 3 10/35 yellow cubes. I realize one buff session is not a valid statistical sample but I visit the caves pretty often and have never gotten so many sets of 7 before.

Speculation on my part, but my suspicion is one of two things:
1. Loot dropsacross the board have increased for weapon enhancing materials in order to deflate the economy somewhat...
or
2. It may be Geo cubes/pastes will be components in some of the new weapons post-CU, and they are making sure enough of them are out there so the new weapons may be crafted. Obviously for this one, we'll know more once the CU hits Beta.

Ya some people that usually supply me with stuff have told me that they have tons of geo cubes.

Yeah, one of my sources filled his inventory with yellows in under 90 mins last night - guess we'd better grab them while we can....

Yeah the rate and quality of many looted parts have jumped, i bought +106 tissues in an auction where the lowest was 11 x +45 so imo they are increasingly dropping at greater qualities, was a time where u would go weeks and not see better than a +70 tissue now ive seen 5 with greater than +100 for auction. The geo loot appears to be the same, i have heaps of base yellow cubes, never knew anything else existed in obtainable quantities till the last few weeks, so deflation will occur and im keeping some stashed for a rainy **cough**CURB**Cough**cough** Day

You are wise beyond your years. There is a geo carbine coming out...so even if that's the only one that uses geo loot, it's still one weapon that all carbineers and 70% of BH's will want....not to mention all those peeps that like to have weapons for decoration.
